Senior Lifestyle - Main

My father really liked Happy Hour. At 97 it was a way to socialize. The activities didn't interest him but more talks by interesting people he would have enjoyed. Sometimes cleaning his room was inconsistent. The staff was very responsive when I had requests or questions. They got to know me even though I only was able to visit every few months. The RN [name removed]was especially helpful. We worked together to make sure everything was done to make my Dad's healthcare work.

Value for cost - Unknown with no comparison. Staffing shortages on weekends. The staffing is our biggest complaint. I'm sure its like that everywhere.. no one wants to work and Indiana is a very small town

There is one particular nurse, [name removed] who was a school nurse in a school district I worked in. She is fabulous with patients & family. They have the MIND diet which is cooking geared at slowing the progression of Alzheimer's. Only con I have is staff could engage more with family more by phone & when we visit especially when it is like my situation & I drive 3 hours one way to visit & can't visit as frequently as I'd like. I would like to be kept in the loop more so I know his status.

What we like the most about The Sheridan are the people, both the staff and other residents are great. Yes, we would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

I really haven't been here that long. These are just observations and maybe in a few months I may think more positively. I'm not one to get overly involved too fast - just observe for awhile and visit with other residents. I liked the idea of not "buying into the company"! I like the month to month rental agreement.

Woodbourne Place is a very nice place for seniors. It is a small facility, that consist of 50 patients. On staff they have 2 nurses and a few aids. Betsy is the Manager and is wonderful. My father in law was there for 2 1/2 months. He made some friends. Food was good. They have great help working there. Activities, sitting area outside, 3 meals a day. We liked it there for my father in law. He was a fall risk, he had no falls there. They are very accommodating,My father in law came home with us in December before Christmas. He wanted to be with us, so we brought him home. They pay very much attention to the patients. He was well cared for. We had a good experience there. It is a nice place to bring your loved one to.

More staff is needed, the patient-to-aide ratio should be lower. 5:1. More staff who speak and understand English. Yes, we would recommend Bayshore Memory Care to other families based on the experience so far.

love the administrative staff they could do better with better CNA's. They're lazy some of them. You do have some good ones, but you have some very bad ones. As far as the cleaning it's clean, but it could be cleaner.

Happy she somewhat safe. Still not understanding the financial process yet. Trying to get the house sold. Not upstanding why her is so different from other clients there. Overall I'm happy she's starting to accept where she's at ...

Staff and faculty were all friendly. We usually visited on weekends so we mostly saw the same nurses. We were kept well informed of any issues like falls or illness as soon as it came up

There are several room types available from 1 bedroom apartments to a 3 bedroom villa. The staff is very caring and the residents are welcoming. This is a pet friendly establishment in a rural setting but close to all conveniences.

The staff is very friendly and activities are great. The personal care of my parent is below what I expected and what I was told would be provided.

We really liked the Sheridan. The sales staff were very knowledgeable. The facility was very clean, beautiful and well maintained. The staff were friendly and attentive. You never saw them sitting around. The cost of the Sheridan was surprisingly cheaper than other nearby facilities. I would definitely recommend the Sheridan.

Staff are very professional and polite. It was clean. Residents and staff were interacting. Good care taker to resident ratio on memory care.

I feel that my mom is safe and well cared for. It is expensive but how do you argue? It's our mom!

I chose this for mom because of all the places I reviewed/saw, this is where I would choose for me. Facility is clean, easy to get around, lots activites.move in can be a little stressful. Apartments seem average sized. Of course many are coming from large homes so is a huge adjustment. Single is pretty small for someone used to a home. Food isn't great but not bad either. Continental breakfast could and should be a lot better. Staff in bar/dining is very sweet. Front office and desk attentive as well. I recommend they get involved in activities.

[name removed] was great to work with during the sales process. Solutions driven but not pushy. Nice facility with many apartment options for independent living and onsite assisted living too.

The front desk is extremely friendly and helpful! Our first experience with marketing was horrible. When I explained mom's budget, she said basically sorry but that's not enough money and made me feel like we weren't good enough for courtyard. Fortunately I pushed back and we were connected with a different marketer who was fabulous and we were able to get mom a studio which fit her budget. Mom says everyone complains about the food...serving sizes are very small, food is either under or over cooked. Also they do not offer sodas at mealtime, but always have alcohol for happy hour. The activity calendar font is so small, it's nearly illegible.

Overall, my mom has had a very good experience at The Breakers. The included amenities provides my mom with easy, assisted living at a reasonable price. The actual apartment is really nice. We both like the layout and ample closet space.

My sisters and I liked the size of the facility and that they truly were an assisted living facility. Our mother had come from a facility that was independent and assisted. She would have the tendency to compare herself to the independent residents which ultimately was not good. The rooms were spacious. The care was not perfect but each caregiver was willing to help and showed compassion.
