Senior Lifestyle - Main

Mangrove Bay Senior Living is an amazing Community! And I do mean Community. They provide such a well balanced living experience for their residents-About any activity your family member may be longing for or needing they have. The staff is an amazing group of caring individuals. [Removed]-The Resident Coordinator helped us in every aspect of my Moms move into the Independent Living. Whatever need or concern we had-she was there ready to help with a smile on her face! She is an amazing person whom you can tell LOVES her job and every resident. [Removed] Wise-Executive Director certainly knows how to run an amazing Senior Living Community. I would highly recommend Mangrove Bay. Could not be happier my Mom is now living at this incredible place! [Removed]

The staff seem to encourage the residents to be active. They are receptive to the residents and are aware of where the residents are. The ratio of staff to residents is great. I feel my mother in law is in a safe environment. They offer a lot of activities. This is a new brighter community. Her room has a high ceiling and hardwood floors. The food seems plain and healthy. I would recommend this community.

They make every effort to be kind and helpful. The housekeepers come in once a week and do a decent job cleaning our room.They could pay more attention to detail.For instance I noticed ceiling tiles that had been moved due to maintenance work when we toured and they still haven't been moved back after several months.We usually don't eat downstairs but when we have it is very good and reasonably priced. We've participated and a few of the activities they offer. We go to their church service every Sunday and have used the movie theater once.We also visited the gym and I appreciated that they showed me how to use the equipment.We chose this community because of the scenery of the lake. I would rather be around nature and pay more. They are also pet friendly and offer a third story deck to walk your dog so you don't have to go outside.

Mangrove Bay is a wonderful community! This community is immaculate, the service is impeccable and the food is outstanding! I highly recommend this retirement community.

Our parents have been at Spring Hills for 45 days. The staff has made them feel at home, and the transition has been better than we could have imagined. Looking at all of the options we had for our parents, we feel that Spring Hills was the right choice.

The care has been going fine for my mom. I think she is fairly happy with the meals they serve her. They have activities available and outings for the residents. She has been on a few outings and she enjoyed it. it is a smaller facility.

I would definitely recommend this community to friends and family. The services have been good so far. My mother participates in activities to some extent. Settling into Brookdale Lisle was a success for my mother she made new friends and likes the meals that they offer. Her apartment has a nice view of the outside.

The staff seems very friendly and kind. TV's are NOT allowed in individual rooms but there is one in the main area. At first that bothered me, but I totally understand the fact that the seniors aren't supposed to "isolate" themselves in the rooms. There is a slight delay between when you call LakeSide Vista and when you get a call back from the staff, but it has NOT been a problem. I feel relieved that Mom is being well cared for, well looked after, and safe. While I live in Muskegon and LakeSide Vista is in Holland, I feel we were blessed in finding this place and would highly recommend it to anyone else that finds themselves in need of a quality place for their Mom or Dad.

If there is a problem i like that the staff or the people that work there will try to do what they can to fix it. My loved one is doing fine in the community. He likes the meals there are times that he likes some of the food and there are other times when he doesn't based on the taste. There are activities that are offered that he participates in. It's a clean place with nice people.

Very pleased.

My dad has been part of the Bayshore Memory Care family since it opened in November 2015. The administration and staff have consistently been supportive and understanding of my dad’s, and our family’s, needs during this transition from independent living to life at Bayshore. The facility has a simple floor plan, soothing décor and lovely outdoor courtyard. There are a variety of activities to keep the residents engaged, and friends and family members are encouraged to attend and participate. Although there has been turnover in the staff as mentioned in other posts, we have always seen genuine care and compassion towards all the residents. It’s comforting to know that Michelle, Emma, Joanne and Ronnie are there to greet my dad with a smile every day. Every person transitioning to memory care has different needs and it’s important to find the best balance of features and facilities. Some places have more bells and whistles than others, but if your loved one isn’t in a position to take advantage of all the offerings, then they are superfluous. Knowing that the staff has real affection for my dad is reassuring beyond words. With the help of the caring staff, my dad has handled the transition better than I could have ever hoped and is thriving in the Bayshore community.

My mother is doing very well here, I'am pleased. This is a nice community with friendly people. They do a good job with the cleanliness, her room and the facility is well maintained. The staff is great, they are very helpful and attentive. She has made some new friends at dinner. The meals are nice, she is pleased with the food. Everything has worked out well for us here.

My wife and I have lived in Mangrove Bay for over 1 year.Selection of new home based on proximity to our family including great-grandchildren.Having experienced both Independent living and the assistant living sections we are so very pleased with the calibre of personnel at all levels.There is a genuine desire on the part of most to make all guests feel comfortable in their home.Special requests are given special consideration.The desire of personnel including especially the people in Assisted living to excel in creating "family like"environment to have every person feels special.Maintenance of the facility is top notch-both inside and out.We are proud to have our family and friends visit.The varied activities are designed and implemented to make them very desirable and fun for those anxious to participate.The Mangrove Bay management team makes a great effort to solicit participation of guests in a variety of ways to constantly improve our lifestyle.The Jupiter location on the water and the location in Florida make Mangrove Bay a great place for this chapter of our life including very capable medical doctors and facilities.A great pace to Live!

My Mom was one of the very first residents and moved in November 2015. The facility is beautiful, the individual rooms spacious. There are many varied activities. On one visit there was a sing along in the activity room. Everyone was happy and engaged. It surprised me that residents who were unable to talk where able to sing! There is a great ratio of residents to staff and residents are kept busy and together during the day. My Mom is very social and enjoys being with the other residents. The staff is both friendly and professional. Any concerns have been addressed and rectified promptly. I appreciate that the staff is so compassionate in their care and do not treat the residents as if it's just their job.

Since moving in my loved one has made a lot of friends and enjoys the trips they take. My daughter and I have tried the food and it is as good as some restaurants. The community is clean and I would recommend it.

Our dad moved in a little over a month ago and is getting acquainted with his new surroundings rather well. The caregivers have been great in watching, encouraging, and supporting him in his new lower level of physical capability. Smiles are many and he says "I'm where I need to be", "the caregivers are nice" (and the family feels well trained), and "it's good being closer to you kids". Autumn Ridge has been a real blessing to our family in this time of transition.

My mother is doing very well at this community. She has adjusted very well to it and they are caring for her very well. The community looks great and they keep the facility looking very clean and nice. The staff is excellent, they are very good at what they do. There are many activities for her to choose from. The food is very good and the dining area is very lovely. It has a very homey atmosphere and they are very attentive. This is a community I would recommend.

I was hesitant to have my grandma move in due to the negative reviews, at the same time I was thoroughly impressed by what I was seeing upon my "discovery" visits. I wanted to go a few times unescorted to see the daily happenings and found the staff to be very personable, and attentively caring. After introducing myself to the now activity director Chris and a few of the other staff members I realized they held pride in their performance which was a breath of fresh air. My grandmother was in two other facilities before Bayshore over a short time span that proved to be simply unacceptable. Even though we were paying extra for special services, I would spend my visit time changing her clothes, cleaning her, her room, and bathroom. It was arduous, stressful, and I honestly believed she wouldn't survive if I didn't visit. All of that stress is gone. She moved in at the end of March, and the level of care has proved consistently wonderful. My visits are always pleasent even when my grandma is having a confusing day due to her dementia. I always leave satisfied knowing she is clean, well fed, engaged, and treated with love, patience, and respect. Every visit, she tells me she loves the food, activities, and how everyone seems to know her name. I highly recommend Bayshore to anyone seeking peace of mind knowing your loved one is in good hands.

Since my husband arrived at 3AM on March 17,2016 on a flight from Tampa to Flint- had to be non-stop we have been blessed with thoughtful, compassionate and well trained caring staff. ex. Gail Fox, admissions director, even arranged a bed for me across from my husband's room so I could rest and observe how he was settling in. That is THOUGHTFUL! Also was accepting of our therapy dog. There is also a therapy dog at the facility. Anytime I visit- no set time- I always find staff in the presence of the residents- maybe setting hair of the females or doing the nails of both male and females. They are SO patient and cheerful and well informed as to what is happening with my husband. He is also receiving therapy and seems well adjusted - never asks to come home. Meals are well prepared to meet his needs. A BLESSED PLACE!

Coming to Mangrove Bay was a big decision for me. Many Factors came into that decision, and the most important for me was the quality of the staff. Since my arrival here, each and any problem that I encountered has been resolved by a member of the Staff. This outstanding team of intelligent and caring individuals have made my life here a comfortable and happy one. From the dining room to the pool, cocktail room to the gym, and parlor to game room, the activities available are endless, there is something for everyone. In evaluating any institution of this type consistency is of the up most important. This is way the Mangrove Bay staff is what makes this an outstanding home.
