Senior Lifestyle - Main

We recently had a Senior Prom Party. I was impressed with all the preliminary effort put into the program. I was not feeling very well the day of the party, but when I walked into the party room and saw the beautiful flower arrangements and everyone dressed up for a good time, I forgot my problems and ended up having a great time dancing. I wanted to recognize Mangrove Bay for their efforts.

They really do an excellent job. The food is very good and the people are all really nice. I really can't think of anything they can do to improve. My wife is currently living at Canfield Place and is quite happy and well cared for. it was a good move.

We moved my mother into Mangrove Bay one year ago and the experience of living there has exceeded our family's expectations. Most importantly Mom has transitioned from "never moving into one of those places" to truly enjoying the everyday living and security of Mangrove Bay. From day one the staff has made every effort to make living there a great experience. We visited many independent living facilities in Palm Beach County-Mangrove Bay is at the top of it class-you will not find a better place. To be frank, Mom smiles so much we hardly recognize her!

We selected a place for my parents that we would enjoy living at ourselves. The dining is flexible; the selections are plentiful as well as delicious and the servers are gracious and caring. This caries over to the rest of service staff and administrators. It's a place we feel safe in and know my parents will enjoy.

People were super friendly. I was very impressed when I toured because the residents were visible. They were chatting and reading books. The other places I seen, the residents were not visible. They were in their rooms. I was impressed that the staff knew the residents by name. That is amazing because it's a large complex. We have been very happy so far. I would recommend this place. Keri Gotsch from "A Place For Mom" was great to work with. She told us about the Brookdale Lisle and was good about checking in with us. I really liked her approach. She was very genuine.

I'd give them 25 out 5 if I could! Lakeside Vista does a fantastic job, they really are remarkable. The staff are helpful, attentive, and professional, I really can't say enough good things about them. I told them I like them so much that they'd better save a space for me when I get to be that age!

When you walk into the facility, you feel like you just stepped into a hotel. The facility is very clean, well kept and felt more like a community than an assisted living facility. The staff were warm and friendly and we were able to observe several residents participating in the scheduled activities. During our tour two different residents stopped to let us know how much they love living at Spring Hills. This one is definitely on our short list.

We're very pleased with how things have gone at Woodbourne Place, the place is just excellent! My loved one has settled in well, and they are taking great care of him. The head nurse does a wonderful job, and the administrative staff have been very easy to work with, we have no complaints!

They have been very good. It's very clean, and the staff is friendly. She's really happy there. They have more activities than she can keep up with. It's not a nursing home, by any stretch. The food is good, she always takes what she can't eat back with her. Parking is the only issue, you get an hour free, but after that there is a charge, it's not a big deal, but it's the one and only thing that could be better.

We joined our mother who is a resident for the Mother's Day brunch. It was excellent. I was so impressed by the décor of the dining room, the quality of the food, the attentiveness and friendliness of the serving staff and the patience and kindness that is shown to the residents. I felt like I was in a 5 star hotel. It's very pricey to actually live there but my Mother has earned this quality of living and we feel so blessed that she can live there.

My brother and I visited many places in Albuquerque but in the end we decided on The Woodmark. The woman that we toured with has been working there for longer than 8 years and she was very knowledgeable. We learned more from her than we did from any other place we looked at. The staff is always very friendly and it is kept really clean. Being a nurse myself I was very impressed that they have 4 Registered nurses working there. The care that they provide is top notch. We didn't find that at the other places we looked at. We would definitely recommend The Woodmark to all of our friends and family!

It was very wonderful. My mother was there for not even a full month but they took very good care of her when she was very sick. The lady that managed the place was absolutely super. I think she was the Assistant Manager. She was wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend her. I can't rate the activities because my mother did not participate in them. It is not applicable.

I had looked at many places but Walden Place was the right fit. Yes, it is not cheap but I feel it is truly worth it. My mother has made the transition quite well. The staff and residents have made both my Mom and myself feel very welcome. Her one bedroom is quite nice and my Mom is very much at home there. My mother is very forgetful and the staff is great at reminding her of meals, activities and meds. I am also thrilled to have my mother so much closer to me.

The move in was really easy. They are very accommodating. They did a very good job at introducing my father to everyone to make it feel more like home. Everything has been great. I would recommend this facility.

Out of our price range, with my Dad staying in the house, or even if he wanted to come, would not be able to afford it.

We have had a very good experience with Canfield Place. They get to know everybody's name (the residents and the families) and call them by name when they come in. Very warm, friendly, and personable. They are very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend them.

My father was in the new Memory Care area of Barrington of Oakley and, after researching 8-10 other facilities and having him in Bethany of Dayton, we were taken with the genuine affection and professional care that Kyla and her staff provided. Dad loved each aid, nurse and employee...and their kindness and interest in us as a family was like no other experience we have had. His one bedroom with a sitting room was more than he needed, but it provided a home-like setting for when we were with him. They welcomed us at all hours and were patient when we wanted updates and info. Mom and I looked forward to being there. The residents were ambulatory and upbest generally. Really, there aren't words enough. Linda B was our first contact and her enthusiasm and efficiency set the tone. Thank you Barrington.

They are hands down a five. They change their menu every Friday, and she says it gets better every week, and it started at a really high place. The overall approach and how they deliver exactly what they describe, is great. They are there to make sure that if the residents need care, that is completely assumed, then they move on to the hard work on helping you enjoy life. As opposed to keeping you alive and calling it good enough.

My mother and father have been residents at Spring Hills in Cherry Hill, NJ for a month. Making this transition was the most difficult decision of our lives, Spring Hills is definitely everything that we could have wished for and more. The facility itself is bright, well maintained, and spacious with many of the comforts of home. Mom has always been a wonderful cook, so the quality and presentation of the dining services were very important in making our decision. We were also worried that the medical staff would not be able to handle Dad's pain management, but the trained professionals in the wellness center have provided him with comfort and he is able to live a normal, active life now. Mom is now able to enjoy her husband without being the primary care-taker, and we are thrilled that they are enjoying their new life. They celebrated their 65th anniversary last week, and according to them, "the honeymoon continues!". I couldn't be happier with the wonderful and loving care that is afforded both my parents and all of the community at Spring Hills. Mom and Dad have made many new friends and consider the staff their extended family.

Met with Nicole today, who was delightful. The facility is beautiful, with a lot of natural light. The redecoration project looks amazing as well. Housekeeping is 2xs/wk with daily tidying. Laundry is 2x/week. They go on outings which are free, unless they go to a restaurant. Every morning there is an exercise program at 9:45AM. No showers in the room due to possible flooding or falls. Different showering rooms, 1 room for every six persons. It is very clean. Medication is an extra charge. There is an RN and 2LPNs and certified med techs. They can take care of everything upuntil hospice. Activities are held 10 hours out of the day - 3 activities directors. There are bus trips 1 time per week and 2 times per week in the summer - mall, ritsa, flower show. Outdoor areas.
