Sonida Senior Living

The staff is friendly, helpful and accommodating. They encourage mom to participate in some of the daily activities. The community is and the grounds are beautiful. Mom is not happy with the food. I would recommend this community.

very nice. very beautiful retirement home. again moms not quite ready.

Great over all carcare.The food is amazing

My father is well in this community. I'am pleased with all they have done for our family.

I had a tour set up and the representative was professional and courteous. They showed me around and I saw a clean community. They had it set up differently and the apartment I saw had no kitchen. We needed one in the apartment and the reason we did not choose them.

I had recently talked to this community about a possible living arrangement for my mother at this community. The staff where very helpful and made sure to answer any questions I had for them in detail. He was very kind with his words and knowledgeable in all of the information he offered. It was just not the right location for my mom in the end decision but I was thankful for there help

My loved one has recently made the move into this community and so far everything is going well for her. The staff have been fantastic to work with and I am comfortable with the care they are providing. They are attentive to her needs and make sure she is satisfied in her new living environment. She has been making her way down to the dinning room to enjoy some of the meals with the other residents as well as participating in some of the activities. Overall we are happy and would recommend it to anyone.

We were ultimately pleasantly surprised but I sure did not expect to be after cooling our heels waiting for an hour in the large common areas of the Independent Living part of the complex. To begin with, this place is BIG! Over 250 residents. This also means they offer a LOT in terms of services, transport, clubs, events. There are 130 staff members!!!The Independent Living side of the facility is large but it is faded, doesn't appear to be as well maintained as it could be (cobwebs on a lamp, spider webs and bugs accumulating in windows, scuffed up furniture, furniture in library not rearranged after vacuuming). Decor is dark, gloomy, 1980s old ladyish. On the brighter side people genuinely 'hang out' together here and participate in a lot of activities together. As we walked along halls we found groups playing cards together, singing, playing piano. Staff were very supportive. The one bedroom we were shown in this wing was drab, looked into a partially covered parking area and we were told all of the Model A one bedrooms looked into parked cars. Model B was nicer with a small balcony, and a bay window in the bedroom; all Model B's looked into the courtyard. There are a lot of common areas. Transit appears to be easy to arrange and there is a big bus as well as a towncar. Most one bedroom units cannot accomodate a washer/dryer and your elderly relative will have to go up a flight to a communal laundrey area. Having them do it for you costs $6 a load. But in this place they don't even do your linens and towels for you. You pay for that if you want it done. The big surprise came when we walked into the Assisted Living wing, bright, beautiful, tranquil. Complete opposite to the dingy quarters in IL; the apartments feel much more spacious, bright, good storage, etc. AL suites do not have dishwashers but still have full stoves, etc. Again a choice of Model A or B; with Model B seeming larger even though it is smaller. This side has a nurse on staff and on site on every floor 24 hours a day. Medications administered, help with bathing and grooming, and staff make sure they are eating, home for the night, etc. AL residents have their own smaller but newer dining room with same menus, but they can go over to IL for all other activities, transport, clubs, etc. If living in AL they do the laundrey for you. We will have to find out what they mean by costs for an "individualized care plan" -- they appear to already cover everything. B Best yet, you can have pets in either wing as long as you look after them; they can also put you in touch with local student dogwalkers. Only negatives (assuming we put them into AL), you have to pay for cable TV and telephone; first place I have found where cable is additional. Cable is $40 a month, phone $20.

We loved this place it was nicely decorated and extremely clean and well maintained. The staff was wonderfully helpful and kind. However, we just felt that it was a little too large for dad gave a feeling of being disoriented. For my dad, there would just be too much walking for him. Another issue that had me concerned was their pricing structure there was a flat room fee but everything else was an add on price so what you thought would fit in your budget after everything else was added on could put you way out of your budget.

I was not impressed by the person that took us on tour. They were very nice, however they did not seem to acknowledge the residents we met in the hallway by name. The community had some nice rooms and the community seemed clean. This community did not seem to have the same family atmosphere as the community we chose.

My family is extremely pleased with West Shores. The staff is great and the residents are happy and well cared for. The facility is beautiful and we especially like the outdoor areas.

I had recently taken a tour of this community for my mother and I was pleased with how things had went for her. The staff where on time to our appointment and made sure to answer any questions we had for them in detail. The property was clean and they had a lot of great amenities available to all of the residents. I would recommend it to anyone who was interested.

Very nice facility....very caring staff

I recently had spoke to the staff at this community for a possible living arrangement for my mother. They where very kind and made sure to answer any questions we had for them in detail. It was just not the right location in the end decision for my mother. It would have been to long of a distance to get to her in a timely manor. Overall great staff selection and I would recommend it.

This is a really nice community, and it was one of my top picks for my mother. My tour of it went well, and everyone was very kind. The community looked nice, and everything was well maintained. The staff was very friendly, and my questions were answered. The experience went very well, and this is a nice community.

My mother in law is doing wonderful at this community. The residents were welcoming and helpful. The staff did not seem very welcoming and have not been there to answer her questions. The community is clean and she loves the food. They offer a good variety of activities as well as trips out. This is a good community for independent living and I would recommend it.

This is a beautiful community. The people I met during my tour were super nice. They followed up with us after the tour. This community would have been our first choice if they were a memory care only community.

I was taken on a tour of the independent living wing by [Removed]. Park Place is lovely, the courtyard is filled with flowers and greenery and has a soothing water feature. the facility is clean and order free. They offer the residents many amenities and encourage the resident's family to join in. The dining area presents like a restaurant - residents are given choices and order off the menu each evening. There is even a happy hour for those who enjoy a beverage before dinner. I loved it. I have a call into a lawyer to talk about VA benefits for my mom. The results of that meeting will determine if we are able to move forward or not.

We toured this community for the care for my mom. The staff did answer the questions. The community was clean and we liked the menu. This is a nice community and we would recommend that families tour this community for the care of a loved one.

I had a nice visit to the community and the tour was helpful and upfront. I found that it was too expensive so we did not pick them based on that.
