Senior Lifestyle - Main

The staff in memory care is very caring, friendly, approachable and assisting the residents. The activities director is good at communicating with family that is at a distance to visit via Zoom. I would recommend the community to others. Meadowbrook has an app that says what activities your loved one has participated in with pictures. Baking, gardening, games, socials, and more are some of the activities offered.

We like the staff's attentiveness to us, the value for cost is good and the location is convenient to us.

The main issue is that they are short staffed and it seems to take a while to get the new staff that they do get up and running. The facility is beautiful and my mom is really happy here. Overall I would recommend to others looking.

Our impression of Garden Way Place was that it was friendly and clean. It would have been fine. Cost ended up being a factor, plus they didn’t have any openings at the time. It was a smaller facility. But the gentleman who showed us around was very pleasant.

I would tell others that I think the staff is good, and I would recommend the community. This is a smaller community. My loved one doesn't enjoy the food. One of the activities available is bingo. There are more activities available as well .

This is well worth the money, compared to nursing homes. I think it is pretty good. The staff are good to work with. My loved one loves the food, it is like eating in a five star resort. There are different activities available each day for the residents. Some include basket weaving, games, happy hour, and more.

It was a very nice community and we were pleased with it. They have memory care and assisted living available. This just wasn't exactly what we were looking for.

My loved one lived there for a few months, but it was just too expensive. It was a beautiful place though, and the people very nice.

Our tour at The Sheridan at Tyler Creek was excellent. The people were really nice. The facility was clean. I learned a lot. The only problem was their care levels didn’t go up high enough to meet our loved one's needs. It was a really nice place, but it just didn't fit our criteria.

We chose Addington Place because it was close to his personal house and it was also recommended by the nursing home we moved him out of. The room sizes at the facility are pretty good size. The staff were always very friendly to everybody and I would recommend to others looking.

The overall atmosphere of Sentry Hill really stood out to our family, it seemed much more welcoming than the other facilities we had looked at. We would recommend this community to others and have already recommend it.

The staff seem to be very friendly, helpful and attentive. They've done everything they could to make the transition as smooth as possible, especially considering my love done didn't want to move in the first place. All the spaces indoors and out have seemed very well groomed and taken care of. It's just a joy to be there.

I chose The Breakers because I liked the apartment and it was an opportunity to get into a senior community rather than being forced into it. They do have studios, 1 bedrooms, and a couple of 2 bedroom apartments. A lot of people try to make suggestions for the food and it seems like they do not take those into consideration at all. Overall I would recommend to others who are looking.

its been a good experience overall and i would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

Overall, the community is friendly. It's predominantly younger, single or widowed women who are very able and independent. That seems to be the type of person best suited for Baywinde. They try to have activities, but it's just he same ones over and over. Also, they're not thorough in notifying the residents of the activities ahead of time either. My loved one is confined to a wheelchair, and I had to hire an outside hourly contractor to move her around the building - to take her to activities, to the dining room, to the hairdresser. The contractor would charge for the whole time in the dining room or at the hairdresser, not just the 5-minute walk. She's not affiliated with Baywinde, but they recommended her, and she's like a quasi-employee, picking up where Baywinde falls short. So if you're a resident at Baywinde, you must be capable of getting around by yourself. It's very independent living. If you have more needs and are more dependent, then you're lost. Because of that, my loved one was alone in her room a lot. The dining room staff was pretty good, very nice and attentive. They tended to be younger, and it was nice for them to be around the residents. The daytime front desk person was kind of rude. But the other receptionists and greeters were very nice, and so were the business manager, director, and assistant director. The assistant director was new but was doing her best to make some outward improvements. The sales director was a compulsive over-promiser and under-deliverer, so you would get in there and suddenly realize some of the things he said Baywinde could/would do, they don't. My loved one was there during the pandemic when there was more pressure to keep things clean. Their housekeeping crew was pretty fast, but didn't really provide a thorough scrub down. The food was good on some days, others it wasn't. Overall, I know they provide a lot of things, but it seems really expensive. The place is 15 years old or so and needs some upgrades, - bathrooms, carpeting, walls/wallpaper, the dining room, etc. The inside just looks tired. I know the property has been sold several times, and I think the latest owners are kind of up to their eyeballs in debt service. But I don't think you'll really find a less expensive place either.

Larger rooms and better pricing than North Shore Place, but many of the same amenities, only its an overall older building and the finishes aren't as nice. Distance is a downside (full 30 min each way) and we don't really ever need to go to that area of town otherwise. Staffed Coffee shop is a big plus.

Our loved one first moved in on the memory care side and that was a very good experience The person who oversaw it was great, she really seemed on top of everything and was always very responsive. We had great communication with her. Now our loved one is on the assisted living side and we know there was going to be less oversight, but the nurse who oversees assisted living has been a little difficult working with, sometimes the communication gets lost regarding our loved ones medication.

I toured The Breakers and everything was fine, it was just not as new of a facility or as open of a concept as I would have liked.

My parents chose them because of the location and it is month to month rather than having to pay a down payment. They have a 2 bedroom apartment and it is very nice for what they need. They activities are just starting to come back up since covid, but you do have to seek out the activities to be involved in them. They just switched chefs recently, they were really pleased before but there are some things that the new chef could use improvement on. Overall I would recommend to others looking.

I liked this facility a lot. It's a very simple, homey layout. I was not convinced, however, that they would be able to handle my mom's dementia as she is still highly mobile and opinionated. I think that if she was more advanced in her dementia or had mobility issues, it might be a good fit.
