Sonida Senior Living

My mother moved from independent living in an over 55 complex to assisted living. She was not eating well, she was skipping her meds and she was isolated in her apartment. When she moved to Independence Village of East Lansing we expected she would be sad and withdrawn - it was a seamless transition. She has flowered - she has gained weight, she is participating in the activities, she loves the music, the movie nights, the scenic tours, trips to area restaurants for lunch. She is happy. She is well cared for. The residents and the staff are kind and caring. Independence Village has been a gift - for my mother and for our family.

Unfortunately, we had a short stay at Waterford because the level of care we needed turned out to be more extensive. However, while we were there they did everything they could to make things as wonderful as possible. Director, nurses, nurses aides - all wonderful!

very nice. Mary Ellen was very informative. My daughter and I went for lunch. It is the big meal of day and it was wonderful! $2900 is pretty high for senior living. But the place is beautiful.

doesn't match with what Karen got for me. If this site is correct, and info sent by Remington to Karen is right, it could work

I want to thank "A place for Mom". Mary made things much more understandable when I was thrust into needing to find care for my Dad. She had lots of answers to questions. She even had answers to questions I did not have, or know to ask. Thanks Mary.

We loved everything about the Waterford. They were fabulous, the staff, and everything was so clean and beautiful. The food was good. We were really sad to leave. They didn't have the level of care we needed. I would recommend them to anyone.

I really do not have that much feedback as far as activities go, because my loved one really wasn't able to participate in them. However, the staff did a good job in trying to get her up and out of her room, and around the other residents. Although it was a relatively short stay, we really could not have asked for a better place!

It's such a nice place! We are so happy with it! We went and looked at about three other places in the area, and this was the one! They had availability when we needed it, and we are all so happy with it! We are very impressed with how clean it is, and the food is really good! The staff are all very friendly and helpful and just right on it! If we have any questions, they are there! They have both independent living and assisted living! We are just so happy!

After visiting several of the facilities in the Greater Lansing Area, my father-in-law chose this one based on his feelings of comfort, caring and cost. He felt quite comfortable in his new surrounding. He was impressed by the care he received from everyone from the front desk to the head of maintenance and the kitchen workers. Finally, the cost was affordable. He enjoyed his stay at Independence Village of East Lansing.

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for our loved one. This place looked very nice, and was the front-runner in our search for quite a while. It is a very nice looking community, and the care and staff both seemed to be exceptional.

I'm very happy. The staff is great they definitely get a five. The home in general is very good. The food is pretty good. This seems to be best you can get for your money. Overall we are very happy with them.

a wonderful new place with much care provided as far as we can see - will follow up

I toured 4 communities in North Austin last month and this was by far the best. Really enjoyed the aquarium and amenities. Would highly recommend taking a tour if you're considering placing a loved one anywhere in N Austin.

I toured this location when I was looking into care options for my loved one. It was a nice looking community and the staff seemed friendly. This community handled both assisted living and memory care patients, and I was more interested in a community that focused on memory care specifically.

They do a good job with communication and everything. It was the overall look of the community, it was a little nicer and more luxurious than the others we saw and that's why we chose it. They are a pretty good community.

They were a larger community. They accepted him even though he was unable to walk. They were very kind and showed caring concern. They try very hard to keep people once they move in. Nobody has had anything but nice things to say about the place, and they were well trained for Alzheimers. The nurses and the hospice nurses were very gracious. We were only there briefly, but while we were there they were great.

Wyoming Springs has to be one of the nicest senior assisted living communities in Central Texas. Gorgeous dining rooms, and many deluxe amenities. State-of-the-art movie theater, beauty salon, and more. Regularly scheduled visits from foot care specialists, and other nice-to-have services for residents. The rooms/apartments are large and private, with many options to suit diverse preferences. Private kitchenettes in every room, as well as nice, safe bathrooms. It was clear that the staff, from the administration to maintenance, all care very much about residents, and they take their jobs as caregivers very seriously!

I really liked this place too. Looks like a nice hotel. Love the special touches like the chef in the kitchen, beautiful park and courtyard. I know my mother would like this one too.

They love it. They really like the food. Everybody is really nice. They have their own full size kitchen. They can keep their own car there, and are allowed small pets. They have quite a few different people cleaning the rooms. The person who cleans their room has been caught just sitting and talking, their room isn't always as clean as some others, but they won't say anything so I don't think the community knows.

Overall they do a great job here. It's a nice looking place, and the care they provide is excellent. Since my loved one is in the assisted living section she has a lot of interaction with the staff, and I think they do a great job of being compassionate and professional. They provide a good variety of activities, although my loved one has said she would prefer more going on in the evenings, especially on weekends.
