Spring Arbor Senior Living

They have worked with us to accommodate daddy's needs. We have worked close with a few staff members to address daddy's needs, etc and to stay updated on his status. Per daddy's and other clients feedback. Could be improved. They are probably doing the best they can but they have been short staffed at times. Also my dad is in memory care unit and his mind is still very active so he could participate with front clients more but has been unable. This area could greatly be improved. Cost is more than what is being provided. Overall they have helped in many ways to accommodate our dad. I know no facility is perfect and at this time we do not plan to move him. It is convenient for family and he is getting his needs met. It is a difficult situation when a family member is placed in memory care but still has ability to function well cognitively. There are various levels of cognition in the unit and I know it is difficult for staff to accommodate them all.

The staff is great, he facility is homey. They could have better activities for the residents. We picked this community because it's close to family.

The staff at Spring Arbor of Cary are very friendly. The office people are sometimes hard to get ahold of and answers to questions are slow. Sometimes it takes 2-3 inquiries. Communication with the family is just okay. The housekeeping is great. The move in process was easy. My loved one hates the food. I'm sure it is okay, but she is very picky. She says that the portions are too small and there are never salad options or vegetables. She says they are very starchy, high carb, and too sugary. I guess she means desserts. There are snacks available all day for the taking, though, it's mostly bagged chips, etc. I would recommend Spring Arbor of Cary to others. My loved one is safe there and the physical therapy seems to be helping tremendously.

It's a good place to send a family member. Wish they handled meds and perscriptions better but overall we have had a good experience and glad that my father in law has a good place to go with caring people and fun things that keep him on a schedule and motivated. We picked this community because of the cost, cleanliness, and proximity to our home.

The staff at Spring Arbor of Wilmington is lovely. Everyone is very loving and friendly. The housekeeping seems to be good. The bed is always clean and clothes are washed. The move in process was wonderful. They accommodated our weekend arrival. Everyone was smiles and welcoming. The Memory Care unit doesn't seem to have a lot to choose from in regards to activities. I would suggest that they have more activities. All in all, the place is fine.

Our loved one has just begun to become more involved and is trying g to adjust to not being in her home. As a child, I am pleased with the staff and the way they are working to get her involved and help her to feel at home

[name removed] has provided professional and informative information from day 1 which helped our family feel we were making the right choice for our parents. She would always answer questions or concerns and continues to do so. She has ensured that the staff provide nurturing care for our mom. (staff at the nursing station address her as mom or grandma!)especially with the recent loss of our father. I was so pleased to see this the whole week I visited,with them sharing how sweet & loving mom is. We are pleased with the daily activities contributing to her improved mood & socialization. Mom loves it here & braggs about the food! [name removed] has been a True Blessing in giving us peace of mind.

Our family had an in person tour with Beach House Jacksonville and we thought the tour experience was a good one - it had a lot of the same amenities as others we had toured. Ultimately it was just not the place for our loved one

Staff is very competent and friendly and most of all caring Activities go on all day and keep mom cognitively stimulated and her dementia seems better since there. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend Spring Arbor of Wilmington to other families.

We toured Waterstone on Augusta during our search for an Assisted Living facility for our loved one. This facility was great, I was very pleased with it. However, my loved one didn't favor this facility because it was on three levels and seemed too big. She gets disoriented easily.

My loved one is currently a resident at Wickshire Creeks Crossing. The staff at this facility are kind and work so well with the families of the residents. I am beyond grateful for Wickshire Creeks Crossing! I would recommend this facility to family and friends.

It was fairly priced and the staff and administrators I met were very nice and cordial. Make sure all the staff folks knows what's going on, follow up on them because they do not communicate with each other very well, the administration staff doesn't follow up on complaints, the medical treatment takes 3-4 times longer than a visit to a doctor. A doctor and Psychiatrist may be on staff but are not readily available to see residents. A psychiatrist is not the same as a psychologist available to help residents cope with their new environment. A psychiatrist is not necessary unless you want your loved one to have new drugs to cope with their new environment. Which is not a good thing. Aides don't always follow instructions concerning a residents needs or abilities. I'm constantly following up on the to do what needs to be done.

I would say that no place is perfect and everyone is shorthanded but overall we are pleased with the care and environment there. We picked this community, because of the proximity to our home.

We have had a good experience with assisted living at Wickshire Creeks Crossing. It has been a pleasant transition for my dad, and the ladies that work there are very sweet.

It's a smaller facility and very hands on. I like it very much. It's a very good facility. They take good care of my loved one. I would recommend it. There is very little turnover of staff. I visit my loved one often, and see the same faces all the time. I think that says a lot about the way the aides treat the residents, and the work environment that Spring Arbor provides.

Overall I'm very satisfied- really nice staff. It the beginning stages of communication there were some unclear or misleading info regarding medication management fees, food, etc. just to make sure questions are asked so that expectations are clear. My loved one always complaints to me that the food has no taste, not sure... it may be an individuals specific taste perhaps... just not my thing...

We've been extremely happy with the management at Waterstone. If there are any challenges, they work hard to correct them. I live hours away from Greenville, but the Waterstone staff has helped me manage everything I've needed to help my parents transition into assisted living. I would recommend to others.

The Piper could definitely add more activities for the residents, our loved one is bored and spends way to much him in her apartment. Most of the staff is young and not very friendly (according to our loved one). She has been there for [date removed] and has had less then 5 showers. I have spoken to the director and she said it would be addressed but has not gotten better as of yet.

So far it seems the services and communications are good. Mom likes the place much better than her last place. They offer; Hair and nails, regular activities in and out of facility, physical therapy, on-site Dr visits, and decent food.

The admissions staff was easy to work with, and they were able to accommodate my financial and quality of life requirements. There's been some staff turnovers and it's taking a while to get her wheelchair and other items, but no significant issues. I would recommend this community to other families.
