Sonida Senior Living

The residents at Autumn Glen have a great facility with caring staff. They are always very helpful to make sure the needs of residents are just cared for…they are very well cared for!! From details like keeping the facility clean and organized, to providing a variety of entertainment, to the food choices…it’s a place we like. Speaking of food….it’s thankfully not frozen tv dinners! The food isn’t necessarily a 5-star Michelin restaurant. But the food should definitely be a high point for the residents. I believe much of the food is prepared fresh and is very tasty. Kudos to the chef, nurses, maintenance, director, and all the others which make Autumn Glen is wonderful facility for those needing assisted living in a reliable and comfortable environment.

I will tell you one thing that I did not care for, they authorized a physical therapy and a speech therapist without crossing it or getting my acknowledgment of it and now the insurance will not pay the bills. They had forgotten that my loved one is on the autism scale. So her communication skills are not great. The staff is very friendly. I particularly enjoy their Activities Director. He engages so well with all of the residents. The every day nursing staff is very good and conscientious and get my sister her vitamins and her meds on a schedule that works really well. The meals are quite good, they've had a few that weren't but I would say 90% of them are very good. They offer wonderful alternatives to the residents as well. I just wish the nurse in charge would have been a little more forthcoming and displayed better communication skills with me regarding my sister, that she obviously does not know all that well. By trying to pressure her into speech therapy and what not she actually alienated her to the experience there. She wanted to come home and with her dementia she couldn't remember why, but the dates all correlate with the dates that the nurse decided she needed these therapies that we're not approved.

No one wants to leave their own home, but if you or your loved one needs a safe family-like atmosphere, Autumn Glen is the new home for you. The activities and programs are entertaining and the food is delicious! The staff is outstanding, from the top down!!! You will get to know them all by name. So if your loved one is lonely, or needs some extra care because of their health, I would highly recommend Autumn Glen. My father and brother live at Autumn Glen, and I have felt confident knowing they were treated with respect and given outstanding care: physically and emotionally. Spiritual opportunities are an option as well. After a visit at AG, I walk out knowing they are in great hands!

I have been very happy living here. The staff are very helpful and the food is very satisfying. I have been made to feel like I'm home since moving here. They always help with anything I need. I'm very happy and I can't think of any other place I'd rather be at this time in my life.

The staff at Autumn Glen have been so helpful for our two family members who have been residents. The nursing staff are on top of things, and everyone else has been warm and friendly to our family members and to us visitors every visit. They are very accommodating to all of our requests.

The Residence of Chardon is an amazing facility with staff that truly care. I never worry about whether my mother in law is taken care of and is safe. Their staff is always attentive to her needs and available for my calls and concerns. Wouldnt want her any other place.

I am looking at Memory Cares for my father in law. I know we will need to move him into a safer environment soon. [name removed] listened to our needs and was informative. I love the home like environment. Also, I was impressed with the interaction with the residents. I have placed my father in law on a waiting list for Cottage 6.

We selected the Waterford @ Mesquite when my Mother-In-Law wanted to move closer to us, and we couldn’t be happier with the accommodations and the caring staff there. There is a wide variety of activities, including crafts, exercise, games as well as musical and cooking presentations. If you are looking for senior independent living, schedule a tour and check out their floor plans.

My father was a resident there for a year and a half. The facility was perfect for him and the staff was attentive and caring. I believe they truly had his best interest and comfort in mind at all times. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

My father has been at the Residence of Chardon for almost two years. He is happy there and I feel he is receiving very good care. I know he is safe there and eating three healthy meals a day. He also has the needed social interaction and participates in activities almost daily. I feel very relieved that he is in their care.

My husband & I came to The Waterford to live and really enjoyed it. However, we had to move due to my husbands needs. I moved in with family while we managed his needs. I soon realized I missed all my friends at The Waterford and decided to move back. It is a decision that I have never regreted. We have so much to do- cards, BINGO, outings and of course my favorite bridge that you will never be bored. I hope you enjoy living here as much as I do!

I tell anyone who might need a place they can trust to visit Riverbend. The staff are all marvelous. I haven't met one staff member who acts like they're just working a job. Most of them seem to be serving the residents with servant's hearts. They step up and do things they notice, even if it's not in their particular job description. ( I've seen this from multiple staff.) The staff is loyal, most of them have worked at Riverbend for many years. They all work hard, but they seem to have enough staff, another great indicator. If you're treating your staff well, you have less turnover and more loyalty. Housekeeping works hard. I see them vacuuming and dusting all the time. The hallways always smell fresh. Communication with the family is fabulous, too! They really go the extra mile to keep you in the loop! The move in process was smooth. They loan carts and hand trucks to you and open the closest entryway for better access. The activities are marvelous. The state ended funding for activities. I think it may have been a grant which ran out, but Riverbend didn't want to lose the Activities Director, so they hired her to stay!!! She's marvelous and has facility-wide fun days and seeks to get residents and families alike to participate. The activity schedule is jam-packed and she tries to include a variety. They celebrate with the community, too. Alzheimer's Awareness, Elvis Presley week, Veterans Day, often and meaningfully! The food is served restaurant style and is really good. Multiple residents stopped us to brag on the food when we first visited. They offer more than one option for each meal and have about 6 or 8 staple options available for each meal if you'd prefer. The kitchen and wait staff are caring and just marvelous. During meals, you might see a variety of other staff pitching in, mopping or clearing tables. No one person is above anything which needs attention. I would encourage everyone to go visit. The only negative might be that they could definitely use new carpet in the hallways. BUT--- if they're paying this fabulous staff more instead of replacing the carpet---it's money well spent. I just mention this to be fully transparent. When we saw the way the residents were genuinely being treated like family, we no longer noticed the carpet! I highly recommend Riverbend, you'll be able to relax and know someone trustworthy and loving is watching over your loved one!

Autumn Glen has been such a wonderful place for my sister, she absolutely loves the staff, residents and always has good things to say about the meals. She is offered several choices and that is something she didn't have before where she was. Good job, Autumn Glen!

We moved mom up to Greencastle from out of town. She had been at another Assisted Living and was not happy. When mom arrived she was greeted by the staff, everyone was so kind to her. She was especially happy to be offered multiple choices for meals opposed to the one option she had at the other community she was in. We can not say enough good things about the staff, the food and the care at Autumn Glen! We would recommend it to anyone looking for assisted living!

Very friendly atmosphere and professional staff and kind. always smells great and good activities Food is adequate. Need more outings for the residents but they do try and thats the most important thing.

My husband stayed at West Shores for 10 days while I was out of town. The care he received was exactly what we had hoped-for. He made friends that he ate with, went to exercise class, and even had a lift reclining chair in his apartment. When the need arises again, we will be back to West Shores.

Everything time I visit my love one I leave feeling good. The staff is so nice . I would always recommend to friends and family . One of my favorite things is the family nights. It’s always fun to get to see all the others family. There is always great food.

I would and have spoken highly of The Wellington at Dayton. The staff is so attentive to my dad. Everything is always clean and orderly. I visit often. The move in process was very easy. I feel the communications with the staff is great. They make you feel like family. They are always available for questions. The food is always balanced and healthy. The ladies that are patients seem happy. I am so happy that my Dad is there. I know all of his needs are met with kindness and compassion. I know he could not get better care anywhere else. They are so kind and catering to him. We are very satisfied.

It’s a beautiful, clean facility. The staff is very helpful and friendly and It’s close to my home. The meals look and smell wonderful. My aunts little apartment is exactly what she needs to feel a sense of independence. I’m so very grateful to “ a Place for Mom” for recommending the Waterford. I didn’t even realize that it was essentially in my back yard.

We have been very satisfied with everything at The Residence of Chardon. The facility is well maintained. The rooms are big and bright. The staff is caring and friendly. The activities are varied and interesting. We really like the library too. We are very happy with everything.
