Sagora Senior Living

Nicest setting as the eight building complex is nestled in a grove of trees and set back from the street. 25 year old facility just recently acquired by Holiday. Only able to see two room layouts and one was under construction. Had luch which was unimpressive.. Only two main entrees, with neither of interest to us. Full meal plan which is a "no-go" for us. Fully occupied with no expectation of future vacacies. Assisted living facility (32 units) on-site

Manager at Orchard Glen was very helpful in explaining what they have to offer. However, still too pricey for my mom and no nursing on site.

Nice, but Alzheimer's / dementia care has shared rooms/bathrooms.

Not an assisted living center on the level that I need for mom. Doesn't assist with bathing, clothing & moving around.

Exceptional grounds with live deer roaming about. Apartment lovely. Food excellent, Chef knowlegeable and personable. Price with wiggle room. Lacks some ammenities.

WOW! It doesn't get much better than this but you pay for it. Full gym and pool with FT Fitness Director. Med administering included in base price. Full service Salon T-F.

Nice facility with some feeding problems according to residents. Staff very friendly, lovely grounds.

In my second group. Will hold in reserve

I did visit Waterford at Roxbury and spoke with the Director. Again, a beautiful facility but no availability.

New facility as of March, 2010. Prices 'start' at $2,600/mo

The floor plans were nice. The residents seems to be happy. The shorter hallways would be good for dad, mom and dad would love the patio that the rooms have I found it a bit pricey. The food that we had for lunch was not great and the portions were very small.

We had visited this one prior to the tour and decided due to the fact we had the information we needed and had seen it prior to not keep the apt. The staff was very nice and has been helpful since then.

Positives: Met with the director, - personable, knowledge, good facility. Level 2 care choice of size of room, Memory care on site. Skilled nursing care. Negatives: paid for skilled care not needed at this time in the room rate, Rates were daily(increase daily?)Too expensive, Services based on point system - was difficult to estimate total cost.

Loved the place. Not sure how good a fit it would be for my dad, he is so independent.

Location is 1.3 mi from wife's school. Is "assisted" living not independent. Content of website seems to hint that this may be a Christian based facility.

We loved the layout of the facility and apartments were very nice. Housekeeping did a great job of tidying up her room. Overall it was very clean other than the urine smell - that was very strong in the hallways and would linger into her room. We had some major issues with her not getting medications at the correct times or not getting them at all. They did not encourage her to do the activities as much as I thought that they would, but the staff were all very friendly. They were in the process of changing hands when my mom left. The food was hit or miss depending on the day, they had an alternate menu but it was not on the table so she never remembered. Overall if they would have done what we thought they would have, it would have been a great value for the money.

The building is super nice, the cleanliness of the community is great and the staff members are all very friendly and just as sweet as can be. However we were sold hard in the beginning and nothing is following through - it is not meeting up to really any expectations. We were told the meals were chef prepared and just amazing and they are awful. We were also told the activities were great and there is barely any even going on. Definitely room for improvement.

There has been a lot of turnover of staff members which leads to the food not being as good as it should, the medical attention not being as good as it should be, etc. They say they have a chef on staff, but the food that they are serving is not for seniors, it is a lot of frozen and fried foods which are not good for dietary restrictions.

We didn't care for the community. The assisted living had a smell and it smelled like a nursing home. The team member didn't keep in touch with us, and they didn't have availability for us either.

Management is out of touch with the needs of senior citizens. Their only concern is with how they can cut corners on the services they provide to us so they can give themselves “merit raises” and show a bigger profit. Our “chef” is given a bonus, not based on customer satisfaction, but on how much he can trim his expenses and feed us on less. So we get a lot of processed food. Canned fruit, canned vegetables, processed hamburger patties, meatballs, and meatballs. Actives are poorly planned, poorly executed, and at this time, dwindled down to nearly nonexistent.
