Spectrum Retirement

From the beginning, everyone at Westview at Ellisville was so helpful. It is not an easy decision to make to move a parent from her home. But when circumstances become such that you have no real choice you want to know your loved one is in good hands. Sharon and Robyn spoke with us many times in going through the process and were patient with any questions. I think Tonia, the Wellness Director, practically lives there. She was so kind with our Mom and took into account Mom didn't really know why she was there. The staff knew the names of everyone. Several members of the dining room wait staff even knew what Mom wanted to drink with every meal and what she preferred to eat. The facility is just beautiful. Looks more like a boutique hotel than assisted living and is always kept very clean. What is great is everything is on site - hair, dining, movies, physical therapy. And they always decorate and celebrate the holidays. Is it on the pricey side? Yes, but you can pay ala carte for so many services like taking your loved one to meals, bringing them meds or giving a bath, among other options. Most people have some dementia and the Memory Care Unit that's in the same building is just great. And no where in the building does it smell like a nursing home. My biggest advice is start looking before you need the care. You can be put on a waiting list and it will give you an idea of what facilities are out there so you aren't caught off guard.

I love this place. My father lives here and I'm hoping to get my Aunt and Uncle to live here, too. The ball is in their court.

The rooms are clean, laundry is done on time. The staff in the memory care unit are willing to work with client as well as resident. Ask us what she likes and doesn't and will assist with meal if need resident needs help cutting food on plate.

So far we have been very happy. It's very clean and the staff is really friendly. She seems to enjoy the meals and she eats an adequate amount. I don't really have any complaints or concerns. We have been very pleased so far.

Excellent - Lisa is SO nice and the place seems to be HIGHLY EFFICIENT, CLEAN = TOTALLY TOGETHER!

This is one of the places we considered when we were looking for options. They were incredible, I really liked them, unfortunately they didn't have any rooms available, and we went with another community that we love. But this was very impressive.

My source of news and information is Barb Hellman...who has her finger on the pulse of everything going on for seniors in Washington. Her energy and enthusiasm carries into the Homestead community, where tours and activities are informative and tailored to each visitor. She is always accommodating and delivers a high level of service....in the Homestead way!

While I have toured many retirement communities, Homestead at Hickory View stands out as an exceptional facility. The establishment is furnished beautifully, providing a warm and welcoming setting. I found the staff to be friendly and helpful, with the director, Barbara Hellman going above and beyond with assistance. I encourage everyone to consider this as your retirement community of choice.

My mother has been at another competitor and this place really has something remarkable going on in comparison. The Residents Club is priceless and something you will not find anywhere else. I have visited numerous places multiple times and have always looked at their schedule compared to what is going on and this place is not just selling it but actually are providing the services they should be all the time. The people in the Residents Club have structure and they are being challenged and engaged, and given the dignity they need. There are so many people involved in the running, planning, and organizing of this facility that it's just impressive.

Mountain Park Senior Living has done a great job overall. They've been very accommodating to all of my loved one's needs, and she really seems to be happy here. The staff are friendly, the facility is clean, and they take great care of the people who live here!

I loved this facility. It is clean, staff are attentive to resident needs, well planned facility with mirroring the IL and AL apartments alike, to help when residents need to change levels of care and move to the AL area. No need to worry about if the furniture will fit! Staff warm and welcoming.

A truly wonderful facility. Treated my father with dignity and respect, right up to the very end.

The service here is exceptional! If you ever need anything there is always someone right at hand to help you out. The staff are all very friendly, polite, and helpful! And the activities director here does an excellent job, there is always something going on to keep the residents active and entertained. They also do a great job with the food, I've never been disappointed. Overall it's been great, I would highly recommend it to anyone else who is looking!

Their level of communication has been excellent. They have really made my mother feel very comfortable and at home. At first she was very skeptical and hesitant to move in, but now she tells me she should have moved in years ago! They have really been great, and have gone out of their way to provide very personal help and care. I would rate them highly and recommend them to anyone.

My Mom (age 84) moved into a one bedroom apartment about 7 weeks ago. She loves it there and so do me and my siblings. Mom is on dialysis multiple times a week and Crestview provides her transportation as part of her apartment rental. They really take great care of their residents. I've taken a number of meals there with Mom and the food was great and the waitstaff outstanding. They also have onsite (ala carte) personal assistance services so as Mom ages in place she will be able to get the help she might eventually need. Our entire family is thoroughly pleased with everything about Crestview.

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for a loved one. The woman who gave us our tour was friendly and informative, and the community looked nice overall. Everything was very clean and well cared for. However, the living area was just too small for our loved one. We didn't get a lot of hands on experience with the care or the activities, but it did seem like they had a lot to offer!

They were very helpful in placing my mom in the right area and they are taking good care of her. We are very pleased and happy with everything. The staff is professional, caring and friendly. It's a great place to be. We are happy.

They are doing a really good job. They were one of the least expensive options we reviewed. It's new and clean and nice. They definitely have a daily activities schedule, but it's up to the resident to participate. They gave a tremendous amount of service and assistance with moving my mother. All I had to do was give them the contact numbers and they would call and get the paperwork set up. It was great!

Gorgeous facility; we'll never be able to afford this one!

This was a community we toured when looking around. It was very nice, immaculate, with no odors. The people I spoke to were all very nice. It was a first class place. We really liked it. It came down to which community was a better fit for her personality.
