Sodalis Elder Living

I am so thankful I moved my mom from and independent living facility to Sodalis Stone Oak about a month before the lockdown of assisted living centers. It has been a great comfort to have her in a caring facitlity that can help her with all her needs, keep her in a safer enviroment and let her be with her best friend. I can reach the nursing staff at anytime. The communication between the facility manager & the health and wellness director to the families is frequent and I can reach them quickly with my own questions and concerns. I have counted on the opinion of the wellness director on many occassions. [names removed] see my mom daily and know my mom's state of physical health and mental state in dealing with daily life. They have a helpful perspective and understanding since they have so much experince with senior citizens. Since my mom's dementia is progressing I can not count on complete or accurate information from her. They do their best to try and keep it fun and interesting for their community, Fiesta drive by, hat and boa day, arts and crafts, puzzles out all the time, bingo. Before the lockdown they had musicians, singers, and other entertainers. So much more than I could ever do at home with just us and a caregiver. My mom has a sense of independence, even though she could never live alone again. She loves not having to worry about meals, can go sit on a lovely patio but not have to care for the yard or plants, she has her own large private room and bath (no kitchen to burn anything up) with her own bedroom furniture and sitting area that someone else cleans for her weekly. She loves it! Tells me all the time I need to move there when I get old! Sodalis is my partner in taking care of my 89 year old mom, I could not do it without them!

We chose this community because they were able to offer respite and short term care for my dad. The caregivers were good, they were helpful, kind, and caring. The activities were okay, my dad didn't participate in many. I would recommend this community to other families.

My 91-year-old dad, a former robotics engineer and now a widower for 12 years, moved into Elmcroft of Carrollwood about six months ago after he had a bad fall at home and was no longer able to safely live alone. I live 6,000 miles away, so I can't care for him myself. Dad has been more than very happy at Elmcroft, and he's enjoying live in his new home as much as he can given the imposed social isolation during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. He tells me that the meals delivered to his apartment are tasty and skillfully customized to meet his dietary needs. The housekeeping is flawless, and the facility is beautifully maintained. All of the staff are supportive and attentive while remaining respectful of Dad's privacy. They pay attention his particular health issues, and they monitor him closely. They're particularly diligent with safety measures to prevent the coronavirus from entering their community (no cases so far among any of the residents). I feel comforted and secure that the Elmcroft team is taking such excellent care of my elderly dad. He's comforted and feels safe and secure to have such attentive support. The local leadership at Elmcroft of Carrollwood and all of the staff there are performing at state-of-the-art levels despite the formidable obstacles that come with the coronavirus pandemic. They're an outstanding team!

This place is beautiful and the staff is completely dedicated to making life as good as it can be for the residents. My sister hasn't been there long but already she is happier is gaining weight that she needed to gain, and is just thriving here.

Elmcroft of Victoria was very welcoming and encouraging during our time of need as we searched for a home for our Aunt. From the initial phone call, we already had our minds made up that this would be our first choice when the time comes. Kuddos to Elmcroft of Victoria for assisting families who are in their most vulnerable state.

The living conditions are great! Food is good as well as the ice cream machine! I enjoy checking the plants. Also, the staff is so cordial!

I have lived here over 4 years and I love it. The staff are wonderful and I love the activities.

The staff have done a wonderful job during the pandemic, keeping us safe from the virus. I love living here, this is home.

Excellent! I have never seen such a place that is so good. It is so clean. If you need help, they're right there.

Living here has been tremendous compared to what I left in Daytona. This place is clean, thorough and I truly love calling this my home.

My mom was there for six weeks and it was very good while she was there. I chose this community for the location. The food was good and they offered a variety in restaurant style dining where you can order off a menu. My mom's apartment was cute and very nice. I would recommend this community to other families.

They did a good job keeping the community clean. The staff was very caring towards my mother and were very attentive to her care and needs. They brought her meals when she needed them and checked on her periodically. My mother didn't participate much in the activities, but they did offer them at the community. Definitely a good value for the price. We cannot say enough good things about the care they are offering.

Elmcroft is a safe, friendly , caring, and cost effective community. I like the great communication lines, if things something I need to know they call me right away. The call me weekly and send a weekly email with updates about the community and my mom. My mom is happy and likes it there. It take a lot of pressure off me knowing she is safe and well cared for. My mom loves the food and she really loves the chef. They other a lot of activities and modify them to fit the residents physical and cognitive abilities. I just can't say enough good things about them.

Excellent.

Sodalis is a beautiful community with amazing leadership! We are so excited for them to open and offer the Bryan/College Station area another beautiful community!

[name removed] does an incredible job.

We are happy to have a “home” away from home for our loved ones. The staff are friendly, kind, caring and helpful! Thank you all for ALL you do!

Forsyth House is doing a great job taking care of our loved ones under challenging circumstances. Staff is very responsive to every question and concern.

Forsyth House is superb. We were looking for a small, friendly, homey place for our loved ones, and Forsyth House is all of those things. The staff are kind, caring, skilled, and thoughtful. My Mom wants to hug every staff member when they come to check on her, so I can see how they've endeared themselves to her and care for her as much as she cares for them. From the very beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Executive Director [name removed] began daily updates and communication with families. She is an excellent leader and administrator, and continues to be professional, helpful, and conscientious. She has been proactive regarding mandated guidelines and, to date, residents are safe and well. Libby and her staff have also creatively responded, developing ways for residents to remain engaged, entertained, and active, and finding options for family to "visit" virtually and remotely. I cannot fully express my family's gratitude for Forsyth House and the safe, comfortable, cheerful home it provides.

A place that just feels like home as soon as you walk in the door. Staff greets you with a smile, the residents are happy, and management truly strives to make sure that the residents and the staff members feel loved and appreciated!
