Sonida Senior Living

Palmilla is fantastic!!! Our aunt lived there for almost 2 years before she passed away. She was in Assisted Living for the first 6 months and then needed to move to the Memory Care section. The staff was very caring and loving. Our aunt was very happy there. When she got sick, and after being in the hospital for several weeks, she went back there for Hospice. They were all wonderful, especially the head nurse at Palmilla. I would recommend them very highly!

I have found the staff and personnel at Independent Village of East Lansing to be consummate professionals. They are caring, sufficient and dedicated to providing quality care to all of their residents. They are always friendly and willing to assist at anytime. I highly recommend Independent Village of East Lansing as a place to care for your loved ones. This is a "first class" organization and facility.

Mom lived at Rose Arbor for four years, and then moved to Wildflower Memory Care two years ago. We were very pleased at the level of supportive, loving care that mom received during her six years of residence. We also received excellent support, frequently having meetings, conference calls, and phone calls with different members of staff. Alzheimer's is a long, lonely journey, and it was wonderful to have the support of such a caring staff. Two staff members were with mom when she passed away in November - praying, playing beautiful music. Her passing was peaceful. We had many people stop by mom's room when we were cleaning it out, sharing their condolences with us. It is difficult to make the decision to move your parents into assisted/memory care. We were blessed with the choice we made at Rose Arbor/ Wildflower Lodge.

Overall, The Waterford has been a good experience. My loved one is still warming up to the community, but it seems to be going well so far. The staff is very helpful and accommodating, the community is clean, and the food is very good. My loved one always likes it and never has any complaints. Our only issue has been that they came an hour late to pick my loved one up from Dialysis. Otherwise, this community has generally been a very good place for my loved one.

I toured this place twice and I liked it a lot. But once I brought my sister there to take a tour, it appeared that there would not be future care available for her. She needed to be in a place that would be able to transfer her to memory care when the time came. The person that took us on the tour seemed easy to communicate with and knowledgeable about the facility and what they had to offer. The only reason we didn’t choose this was because they didn’t have the future care available.

My mother has been here for two months and I am very happy with my decision to move her. The people and programming are wonderful. Thank you!

My 85 year old father just spent 2 months at this facility. I could not say enough positive things about this facility. He received excellent care and the facilities are beautiful. He was sad to leave the facility but glad to be back in his own home. If the need would arise, he would be back no question about it.

Food is very good and people are very friendly. So far I like it and think it was a good choice.

The Wellington has a friendly and inviting atmosphere, their all-inclusive pricing model makes costs predictable. We have enjoyed the events, special programs and care options that they offer.

So far everything is working out pretty well for my mother with her move to this community. She has adjusted well to it, and I'am comfortable with her living here. The staff is kind, and have been helpful with whenever needed. When I come to visit the community,and her room are nice, and clean. They have nice activities if she ever wants to participate, and they provide good meals for the residents. I have not had any problems with this community, and I would recommend it.

I am very impressed with this senior living residence. It has all the bells and whistles for their seniors. The staff are welcoming, solicitous and caring. [Removed], Director is very knowledgeable, receptive and works as your partner regarding the care of your loved one. The layout is great. A nice size library, computer area, arts & crafts area, open game room, activities scheduled daily, movie theatre and even a nice bar area that the residents have social Happy Hour time with coffee or wine on some afternoons. Clean, smells fresh, very nice colors. Walking down the hallways, you think you are walking down an uptown Marriott or Hilton and the entrance is Grand. It was everything that I wanted a place for mom to be.

I was very pleased with my wife's experience in this community. Unfortunately she had a bad accident, and I had to move her to a nursing home. However I love this community, it is a great facility. It was a good match at first. The have a friendly, helpful staff, and they did a good with the cleanliness around the community. There are activities offered, and they provide good meals for the residents. It is community I would recommend, it is a nice facility.

My love one is doing well with her move to this community. She likes it here, and we do feel comfortable with her move to this community. She is safe, and in good hands. There was a moment where the staff was having problems with her eating, but after working with my father to come up with a better care place for her. Everything is working out well now. The staff is taking good care of her, this is a community I would recommend to my friends.

My Mother, [Removed], is 96 years old, very active and had been on the waiting list to get into Brookview Meadows for some time. Recently her Doctor said she could not be on her own. needing Assisted Living. Upon checking with Brookview Meadows, they thought they would be having an opening. Within a week we rechecked the facilities, made arrangements and got her moved in. She is very happy. Everyone at Brookview Meadows is very friendly, willing to help out. [Removed] couldn't be happier.

My mother in law loves it here in this retirement community. She is doing well, and we very pleased with everything they have done for us. We know she is safe, and in good hands. The staff is well, and have been helpful when needed. They do a good job with the cleanliness around the community. This is one of the nicest community's we looked at. She is happy since her move to this community, and we would recommend it.

My friend is doing super since his move to this community. I do feel he is in good hands, and in a safe facility. Everyone has been really kind, and helpful. The staff is good, and friendly at this community. Everything is working out very well for my friend with this community. This is a community I would recommend to family, and friends.

We love the friendly staff, great food, nice residents, beautiful spacious 2 bedroom unit with corner balcony. Mom feels very comfortable there and we couldn't have asked for a better place.

This was a great place for my loved one while she was there. The staff were amazing! However, we had to take her out of the facility due to the simple fact that this is more of an assisted living facility, rather than an independent living facility. If my loved one does require more help in the future, this facility will be our first choice!

We toured this community and we liked the community This location was too far and we still wanted to be able to care for my father. The community was clean and the menu was very appealing. We liked the activities that are offered.This location was not convenient for us, but we would like to recommend this community to other families for care.

My dad has been at BVM since August of 2016. We are very happy with the apartment, the assistance and kindness they show him. I have spoken most often to [Removed] so I want to give a shout out to those ladies as they have been wonderful to work with. BVM has a lot of activities available, although I'm not sure dad participates in a lot of different ones. I'm sure he hits the weekly ice cream socials and the Happy Hour! In the time he has been there they have had multiple events where the families are also invited. The on site church services are really important to him. This facility also has a higher percentage of men compared to many other facilities and a lot of Veterans, Both were important to us. So our experience with BVM has been quite positive.
