Sonida Senior Living

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for a loved one. We were very impressed by what we saw at Benton House! It was a very new, nice looking community, and the staff all seemed very friendly. It was a fairly small community, and Dad was more interested in somewhere big and busy. I've heard nothing but good things about this place from friends who have relatives here, however!

They are very good but they are very expensive. It's clean and the staff is friendly. They could use a little more variety of activities. The food is good, maybe a four based on the fact that people with strict dietary needs, or if you need organic, or if you have a lactose problem you may be stuck. I chose them because, I like the location, and the facility was so nicely kept. They are very nice, and incredibly accommodating, helpful and patient. It had a very warm clean environment. I didn't realize that negotiation is a big part of it, there are people with bigger rooms for much less, so remember to negotiate!

Our experience with The Hamptons at Meadows Place has been great! The director, Byron was extremely helpful from the very beginning. He helped to make the transition so smooth. The lady they sent out to do the assessment was very nice and professional. Everything was done in a timely manner. From the administrative staff to the financial person, everyone was very helpful, to not only the family, but resident as well. The nursing staff and housekeepers are very accommodating. They meet all of our needs as far as assistance goes. My mother in law was able to move into a one bedroom apartment, which was very spacious. We just fell in love with The Hampton. We're very pleased with them. In fact, the moment we drove up, my husband and I told our children, we wouldn't mind staying here. Great place.

Heather, KIm and Todd were amazing. What a spectacular place. The accommodations and services are top-notch.

My father's apartment at The Jefferson is nice. This facility is undergoing some major issues at this point in time. Management has changed here recently to come in and try to improve things. The main caretakers have changed as well. The food is awful. We were served bean soup, with no beans, potato soup with no potatoes and the food is cold. The other day, the entire wait staff called in sick. Hoping for changes soon. This place is close to me, so it's very convenient.

I'm happy being at The Wellington. The rooms are very spacious. The dining area is very comfortable with plenty of room for people with walkers and wheelchairs. The facility is very clean, and staff is nice and caring. No complaints.

My parents were very apprehensive and more than just sad to leave their home of 68 years, but we knew the time had come. From the minute we walked in the front door, and were greeted to take our tour, we knew this was the right place for them. The staff was warm and gracious. Everyone who worked there took the time to greet us as we passed through. The facility was beautiful and very well maintained. Those living there all looked happy and active, which was just what we wanted. I can't emphasize enough, how positive a move the staff has made this for my parents. I will forever be grateful to them, for taking a difficult life altering situation and turning it into a positive experience.

We've had a great experience with The Amberleigh so far! During the sales process they did an excellent job making sure we had all the relevant information and giving us a good idea of what they were able to provide. And, after moving in, they've continued to be available and informative regarding any questions we've had. I like that they assign an "ambassador" to new residents to help them learn their way around and get a feel for the community. In general I just like feel of the place overall, it has a warm friendly atmosphere and light open areas for the residents to socialize in.

Everything is going well a The Jefferson. My loved one is seeking in. It's a great place, and I'm happy with their services. I'm satisfied with the care they provide, friendliness of staff, and cleanliness of the facility. Overall, things are great.

We still have our good days and bad but overall my Mom's stay in the assisted living at The Waterford has been enjoyable. They are helping her to adapt to her new apartment and have taken the stress of medication management etc... off of my shoulders. She is also experiencing so much more interaction with seniors her own age than she did living by herself and with no car. Because of proximity, I'm able to visit more often and she enjoys seeing me. It is nice to be there as a daughter and not a caretaker...more quality time to look through old pictures, take in a movie or go shopping than before. And at the end of the day, I know she is someplace safe! And pets are accepted so she is extremely happy that her cat could come with her.

The Waterford is a beautiful place. Excellent staff to make your love one feel at home.

This was my first choice. It was brand new, and absolutely beautiful. It was was pretty comparable in price. The problem was my mother couldn't be alone for a second, she needed someone right next to her 24/7. They told us that the outer door to the room would have to stay closed, and that just didn't work for my mother. You are encouraged to eat with the family, but they charge you ten dollars. We really liked it, and I would move there myself, it just wasn't the right fit for my mother.

We are very happy and pleased with our choice. The advisor I talked to was so very helpful and kind and understanding about how my husband and I felt. But my mother-in-law surprised us and has accepted the move very well. Everyone at the Wellington is so very nice. Thank you so much for your help with us finding a place for Mom.

It's been very good. The food is good, she is eating too many desserts, she has so much to choose from, it's hard to pick the healthy options. We chose based on the overall experience, it was very bright and cheery, and friendly, and clean. We knew two people who lived there and their opinion weighed heavily on our decision. They knew everyone by name when we were walking around. We are very happy with them.

Mom lives here and we are extremely pleased with it. She enjoys the meals, cleanliness/Housekeeping, activities, and location. I feel she is in a secure environment with caring people.

They are a great place. It's clean and light and airy, it makes you feel like you want to go there. They have a great big list of entertainment that comes in, and activities. She loves the food. The staff is friendly. This is one of the best we have seen. No steps, no elevators, it's exactly what we needed. We are very happy with it. It was hands down the best of all the ones we looked at.

My Mom has dementia and we realized we needed to find her someplace safe and close to us rather than in her own home. And somewhere who accepted pets! No cat, no Mom. Sorry! After visiting several facilities, we decided on the Assisted Living at The Waterford and my Mom has been here for two months now. It is a little bit of an adjustment especially with the dementia but the staff have helped to make this a smooth transition. The staff and the other residents are so friendly that we felt so welcome from the very start. Mom has her own little apartment with her furnishings. The apartment size is excellent especially when she has been used to their own place and is an excellent value in comparison to other facilities. Mom is busy throughout the week with lots of activities from crafts, puzzles, games to speakers, music and movies. The staff makes sure to call on her to get her out of her apartment and mingling with the other residents. They handle all her needs from housekeeping, laundry, meals and medications. There is a nurse on staff 24/7 which is a comfort and communications with her doctor are taken care of by them now when there is a problem. It is such a joy now to visit (and more often since she is closer) as her daughter and not as her care taker. We have had so many wonderful quality visits to just talk and laugh about life. Looking forward to much more quality time with Mom and less stress for our families.

Fantastic!! This residence is just perfect. It's safe, clean and very welcoming. I had a great tour and Barb Fleischmann spent over an hour talking to me about the facility and answering questions. I would have no problem moving my mom to the residence at a future date. At this time, I would still need to have them assess my mom to make sure they could take her and we'd have to get her on a waiting list. As we aren't in need right now my next steps would be getting my dad to allow them to come to the house and do an assessment and then, if they would take her I'd get her on the waiting list.

My loved one was here briefly for a respite stay, and overall I think they did a great job. The communication with the community and between the staff was top notch. We let them know what our loved one needed, and they advised their whole staff on how best to take care of him while he was there.

Susan Goff and her staff were awesome during the tour of Elmcroft--helpful to the max. This facility has some wonderful benefits - close knit, best patient to caregiver ratio, new computer monitoring of medications to be given, patient care tasks to be done, etc. for CNAs and nursing staff. Susan, director, especially is very personable and knowledgeable of a multitude of services and resources to help when placing special needs persons. This group of caregivers does everything in their power to maintain the dignity of their patients. Love that!
