Join the activities regularly and watch your surroundings when leaving the facilities. The area isn't the best crime wise, but seems safe enough if your watchful. You can always ask the security to escort you to your car as well.

She had no choice of having to go into assisted-living so she did need quite a bit of care. She never wanted to go into a place so she was very depressed and had a bad attitude about it however, from what I witnessed while she was there I gave good reviews. She would call me at times and complain about having to wait too long for help, but I do know those places are pretty demanding & short on staff. She also complained that they could be mean at times, but I just think she was taking out a lot of anger on them. For quality of care, it's hard to find good people - not sure if any of the other places are any better. I've gotten feedback from other residents too. For activities, I've seen some activities & they didn't look too exciting - but my mom never participated. I toured a lot of places, but the reason we chose this one too was my mom was a smoker and she could smoke in the outdoor spaces. Most places do not allow it.

1. 4 - Unfortunately, when my mom was being admitted another management company was on its way out and nothing was said when we were admitted. Only found out the next week that a transition was about to happen. With transitions are also staff turnovers. This is hard on individuals with dementia. 2. 4 - Cleanliness. I have had to ask that my mom's room be cleaned a couple of times. Once because some cleaner was used on the bathroom floor that made the floor very slippery. The second time was when moving a fall mat next to her bed, the floor under the mat was soaked in urine. 3. Friendliness - 4/5 the staff has been very friendly towards my mom. It would be helpful if they would always wear a name tag that is visible to residents and family. 4. 3/4 Training would be beneficial for the staff to correctly respond and talk with dementia patients to encourage participation in activities and to encourage self care whenever possible. Easy to get busy and just "do" for the individual rather than give simple verbal cues to get resident to do for themselves. They have been very caring though. 5. Meals - 5 Haven't seen many meals, but what I have witnessed they have been sufficient and with variety. 6. Activities -5 The activity director has been very good at providing a variety or activities to engage the residents. Very well rounded, devotional, reading stories, karaoke, group games, art - not just all color pages, spa nail treatments to name a few that I have witnessed. 7. Value for cost - 5 Compared to other places, the memory care side was all inclusive at the time when we signed up. I believe care costs have been added since, but my mother came in when it was included in her monthly rent. Other places have LVN's around the clock, but not so at Legacy. You get what you pay for. As a side note, because it is a new management company, most of the administrative staff are interim. Most of the individuals I have dealt with from the administration have been extremely helpful and supportive. Staff is kind. When questioned specifically, they are communicative. I have been told that they used text or speak directly to family, but the aides have been asked to allow one of the daytime nurses to interact with the family instead. This particular nurse hasn't been responsive with me so much. I go around her because of that and communicate with the Interim Nursing Director. She is kind and communicative.

Stopped by to look at Assisted Living. While it is a little doled, its very clean. The residents were all warm. Staff was helpful. Everyone seemed happy and cared for.

The staff has gone out of there way to help me come to Elison Park. The staff has a good understanding of what a Sr. goes through in downsizing from a home. I like the community that offers a open feeling and caring. The staff all knows your name and is happy to see you. There activities include Happy Birthday parties with cake with sing along of Happy Birthday wishes. There is also Live entertainment throughout the week. There are movies that the residents may watch after dinner in the Community Room and ice cream socials that a Resident may participate in and many more activities. On Sunday there is a Non Denomational Church service. There is a billards room that I find challenging and TV set to watch favorite shows and to socialize while playing a friendly game of Pool.There is an on-site store that has many items in stock including Bluebell Ice-cream. So if you have forgotten something at your local grocery store, Our Store, just might have it in stock. Wish they had assiste

The Activities Director [name removed] is "above and beyond" All of the staff are kind and helpful in our experience. The facility is very updated and nice. They offer plenty of fun and enriching activities for the residents! Our family member is in a double room in memory care (hasn't always had a roommate, but does now) and its quite large.

Mom absolutely loves her new apartment and really likes living at Elison Park. She has made lots of new friends in the short time that she’s lived there. Her favorite facility is the on-site convenience store, which she frequently uses. The only real complaint she has concerns the dining room. She says that sometimes it takes 30 minutes or more for someone to take her order, then another 30 minutes to receive her meal. The quality of the food seems to be just fine, it’s just that the length of time it takes to be served is a bit long. The few times I’ve called the front office for service, they’ve responded quickly and efficiently. The common areas are always clean and well maintained. The office trio consisting of [name removed] are just super. All of the Elison Park personnel are quite friendly and helpful. Elison Park provides all the amenities that mom needs and is very affordable... a great value. It was a perfect fit for us.

I would say was good. We had a refund coming in and I'm sorry I had to wait five months to receive it.

I am very impressed with the caregivers and find them loving, patient and truly caring. The facility itself is very nice and well-suited for Dementia residents. The food is very good but no access to snacks/soda for family nor a room for visits. The main lobby has chairs but they are occupied by residents so it is awkward and uncomfortable. Im not sure it is a good value.

My loved one is currently a resident at Sodalis Oak Hill and most everything has been very good for him at this facility so far. Sodalis has recently acquired this facility, which had declined in residency. Building the facility back up has presented some challenges, but the staff are working hard on it and they are very attentive to the residents. I would recommend Sodalis Oak Hill to others!

We were kind of in a rush to find a place to be honest. They had an opening and the monthly payment was something we could afford without sacrificing too much. Plus the incentive ($2k off October rent) was very nice! It turned out that it was a really nice place!! I would recommend to others.

It's a fun group. I picked this community because it was most like an apartment settling with dining room.

I would highly recommend. We picked this community because of the value and location.

Ellison Independent Living at Willowbrook is a very warm and welcoming community. It feels like a family. And it's a safe place. My mother loves it!

My family and loved one have had a good experience with The Preserve at Woodland Hills. The staff are very courteous, informative, empathetic, knowledgeable, and professional. Everyone is friendly. The community is clean every time we visit our loved one. There are meals and activities provided to assist with socialization of the residents. Overall, this is a community we would recommend to others for their loved ones.

While our loved one was a resident there, the staff members were just so friendly and so caring towards her and the other residents. We were so surprised to see how they showed genuine care and concern for the residents, it was nothing like what we expected.

Elison has some issues at present; however, this might be because of COVID. The staff are working on the issues hard and fast. This is a community I would recommend you look into. There are three meals a day served and there are choices for the residents. There are different meals packages to choose from. There are communal laundry areas in the building. There is a full kitchen in the apartment, and housekeeping is included once a week.

So far so good with our experience for our loved one being here. The food has recently been going downhill according to my loved one. The staff have been responsive to our questions. There has been a turnover of staff recently, and we aren't working with the same people when we first moved in.

The staff are caring, but they're understaffed. Residents don't always get the supervision they need.

So far it's been good for my loved one. He's enjoying himself very much. They do a lot of activities outside of the facility. The apartment is very nice. It's not too small, but not to big. It gives him enough room to feel at home, but is not so large that cleaning is a hassle.
