Senior Lifestyle - Main

They need more staff to monitor patients.

The friendliness and personal connection at the Renaissance are outstanding. All the staff stop to greet my mother by name as she walks through the halls. The waiters in the dining room are pleasant and very patient. The manager walks around frequently and is open and responsive. In the years my mother has been there she needs more care but still takes part in activities every day. If you walk into the dinner area on any day, you will hear a lively buzz of conversation -- even at tables with people who are very frail. Three nights/week there is a happy hour before dinner and there, also, people enjoy talking with each other, and mixing. The social interaction really makes a difference. I was present when my mother came back from the hospital and she was welcomed so warmly by everybody. Another important service that has been very helpful is arranging for doctor's appointments, including transportation and someone to go with my mother. These arrangements cannot be spontaneous -- they must be planned but they make a big difference. My mother is very happy at the Renaissance and I think they have helped her stay connected.

My aunt lives there and she has issues with the food. It's not unhealthy or anything. Sometimes they can have 2 things on the menu that may be spicy such as barbecue or stuffed peppers. She has a little bit of a delicate stomach.

They offer a lot of activities but my grandmother did not participate. They have been doing a great job. We had to call hospice in last week and they have been working very well with them. The staff has been great and always go above and beyond for us.

My mom has only been there for a week. So far I can not think of anything that the facility could really improve.

I have been living at Mangrove Bay now 4 years. I feel safe, and happy living here at Mangrove Bay. Staff is extremely courteous and attentive. I find the transportation to be more then adequate for all my needs and doctors appointments, shopping and entertainment needs. Happy hour is fun. Dining Staff is attentive since we all come from different backgrounds it hard to please all of diverse taste, but no doubt they try to please.

They made it very personable for us and the Benton House of Johns Creek just has a very homey atmosphere about the place. The staff workers were very accommodating. I was just very pleased with the entire experience.

It has only been a month, but Somers Place has been absolutely amazing for my young sister with dementia. My sister is only 58 and with no medical issues other than dementia, is constantly moving and restless. Somers Place gives her the room to constantly move and they just roll with it. They prefer not to slow her down with medication because of the risks that would add such as falling. They allow my sister to help by pushing other residents around in wheelchairs, sweeping the floor, serving food, etc. Somers Place is truly the best place on Earth for my sister, and I am so grateful to A Place For Mom for finding it for us.

My parents moved into Mangrove Bay when my father needed it and my mother was not quite ready for it. It was not long before they both realized that Mangrove Bay was more like a home with an extremely nice and friendly staff, multiple activities and transportation allowing them to retain their independence, and an atmosphere more like home with the freedom to use common areas like in their house. In addition, the food is very good and socializing was easy as residents are out of their apartments routinely. I cannot say enough nice things about Mangrove Bay, especially after visiting other local facilities first.

We moved our mother into Logan last week and were so impressed with the facility, the staff and the management. Our sincere thanks to Brenda, Jamie, Brian and Leigh for making her move a pleasant one not only for her but for our family. We know that mom is safe now and will have the best of care. The facility is clean, the food is great and the team members are very caring to the residents.

I think the place is excellent. I think they could use a few more staff members, sometimes it takes a little longer than what we would like. They keep the facility up, and they keep the place clean. The food is very good, they have breakfast, and two lunch services and two dinner services. They give you a regular menu with three to four choices. They were right on the money with the pricing, it's not called assisted living, it's supported living.

My mother moved to Florida to be near her children. We looked at all independent/assisted living facilities in a 20 mile radius and Mangrove Bay was far superior. When the time came to move from independent living to assisted living, the staff was instrumental in making the transition an easy one. This can be a Avery difficult time and a caring professional staff makes a world of difference. We have always recommended Mangrove Bay and will continue to do so even though our mother has passed away. The compassionate and skilled care that was given to our mother made all the difference in her quality of life

My wife and I have lived at the Renaissance for over a year. It has been a wonderful experience for us and we are extremely happy in our new home.

They were very, very impressed with the fireplace in the back patio that looks out to the mountains. They have also been impressed with the friendliness of the other residents and they say that there is too much food at mealtime.

The physical plan of Somers Place is fantastic. The staff has done a very nice job. Mom has mentioned the food not being very good but I'm not so sure that its not just her. I rate the place very high. They go out of there way to help mom when she needs it. She is particularly happy with the nurse, Janet. It is really a great place.

Things are going well, my loved one is very happy here! We have no complaints!

They have been very good. We don't have any major concerns or complaints so far. I would give them a five at this point.

The staff here is very helpful and very kind. The lady that showed me the cottage has been extremely nice and patient with me. I have not moved in yet, but I feel that this is the best place for me and I will be moving in next week.

I am overall pleased with LakeSide Vista and Village. They provide a level of care that most facilities don't match. I have no complaints. Everything is five stars here. I am very pleased.

Our experience with the Lake Barrington Woods so far has been wonderful. We looked at some other places, but they are just so helpful and they are quick when we ask them to do something and really it has just been a great experience.
