Sonida Senior Living

My loved one has been in this community since May and the care given has been good. My loved one was in the hospital for some time but when he came back to this community he improved again and the community worked well with hospice care to provide the best for my loved one. They all like him and take really good care of him.

I have been very comfortable here, the community is quite clean and the staff members are friendly and helpful. The meals are getting better and the kitchen staff is getting better now that they are able to hire more people. Also the activities so far are very satisfying, I love all the exercise classes.

I am grateful today that I live in a safe friendly home. I have been here almost 2 years. I have a sister who has been here before and came; use can visit each other most anytime. I also have a daughter works from the kitchen. Making new friends along the way. I love to welcome the newcomers too!

We were very close to signing with The Jefferson. Everyone here was so friendly, we were able to sit with other residents at lunch and everyone seemed nice and welcoming. The food was excellent. The room we were shown was on the smaller side which is why we did not go with this facility. But I have recommended them to my friends, I think they have a great value for what you get.

So far I am pleased. I was somewhat leary about being here but it has certainly been pleasantly and been good for me. I do appreciate the variety of things offered here. The food is too much pasta! The dumplings were really bad. The vegetables are mostly peas and carrots.!

Like my apartment and having the room cleaned weekly, linens changed, laundry done for me, and help with shower and tying shoes. The caregivers are wonderful and caring and asking is there anything else I can do for you? The activities and participation are good too(from renovations to the bathroom) {names removed} are part and interact well. Kitchen help excellent (will ask if I want oatmeal each day). Would like my shoes tied more than 4 times a week.

Great community

Villa Santa Barbara is a very nice facility. It is multi-level so residents have to use elevators which would have been an obstacle for my loved one who is blind. They had limited outdoor space. It was just not the right fit for her and her needs.

We chose Elmcroft of Mountain Home because it had a smaller count of residents, it was very clean, and the staff members were also more friendly towards me when I was touring the facility. The room sizes are adequate. I would recommend to others.

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The staff are easy to work with.

We are very pleased with The Madeline of Decatur. She seems to have adjusted here very well. You do still have to set up appointments to go visit, my brother goes by every day and he has been very happy with them as well. It is hard since we are not able to see them interacting and doing activities but they said she is doing well, they offer a lot of activities. Overall I would recommend to others who are looking.

Everybody is really friendly. They've always been very helpful. Some days the food looks pretty good, but they seem to have a lot of sandwiches. The living spaces are good, and I think it's a really clean place. I think they could have more outdoor space though.

I would recommend the community to others. [name removed] was so sweet, and all the staff have been amazing. It was amazing the staff helped us create a plan for our loved one moving into the community. We are happy to know my loved one is taken care of, safe, and eats their meals. They have a salon on site for the residents. [name removed] has gone above and beyond, and takes care of my loved one's hair each week.

The Community is very nice and they keep it very neat and clean. They have lots of activities and the food is really good. the staff is friendly and I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

The staff is very nice and the community is a nice place. There are some on-site medical services. Communication is good between the staff and our family. The rooms were smaller than other communities but it had a homey feel and was a quiet community. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

I have been to almost every senior citizen place around and The Waterford has beat every one of them. The studio apartments are very nice size. The activities are limited due to covid, but from what I have found people enjoy what they are offering. We had a Mother's Day Celebration the other day and they had a band come in to play music. There were people up dancing around and really enjoying themselves. Most of the time the food here is great. They went through a major water issue during the snow we had and they lost a lot of flooring, but the construction crews are in here getting things put back together. After that is all done it will be one of the best places around. For my money I am getting the most that I could get. I would highly recommend to others looking.

We've had several friends ask and have let them know about the care and room have been very good. The meals are not to our taste and this would be our only complaint. There are times where we aren't able to eat the food due to our other conditions. There are foods that are available at anytime, but you have to ask that in a timely manner. They have musical events, teas, games, and all sorts of different activities for the residents to participate in if they choose.

Overall we've had a pleasant experience. The head nurse is wonderful and does everything you ask her to do. They're pretty prompt with requests. The food is excellent, it's like a restaurant. I was a little frustrated as my loved one has declined that the cost of care went up, even though the care required seems to be less. But based on other places in town, the cost is reasonable. It's an older building, could be kept more clean, but they do change bed sheets 3 times a week.

I like the fact that people care. The staff is very helpful and more than generous with their time and concern.

I have been here 1 year. I like it very much.
