The Blake by QSL Management

Everyone is capable and talented. But weekend staffing challenges often impact the resident experience. I would recommend the facility - with the recommendation that the potential resident have an offsite family member/sponsor consistently helping to oversee care.

Very nice facility. Clean, well kept. Lots of amenities. Family involvement in memory care is phenomenal. Hands on staff, overall, is very dedicated and hardworking and loving. Chronically understaffed (like everywhere) but it's getting better. Upper management isn't great so they lose a lot of good staff.

Overall, it's a great place. The staff and the other residents are very friendly. It was just a little too structured for me. I needed a little bit more freedom, so that's why I decided to just get my own apartment.

I would say that the residents and staff are friendly for the most part. If you live there you should definitely partake in as many activities as possible. They will help you stay active and healthy. As far as good goes - they could possibly have some better variety, make sure it comes out hot, fresher ingredients including meats, etc., have bacon more than once a week, and this is harsh, but get a new chef maybe? Or, give the chef the ingredients he/she needs to make the food taste better.

I would recommend the facility. We picked it because of a comparison of cost, services, and location. It worked out well. The biggest issue was with the staffing. There was a high turnover rate during this period, apparently due to internal problems, conflicts, etc, and many issues fell between the cracks. Dropped balls were common. All of the staff that we dealt with were great. It was the behind the scenes issues that were problematic.

It is modern and feels much like a hotel walking in and not an "old folks place". It is very clean and well organized. [name removed], our Sales person, was very passionate and engaged with us from the beginning. Her follow up was by far the best! People smile and I spent enough time there to watch the care attendants with people - they were kind and caring and respectful. The food is in transition, I believe and definitely needs some work. It is the main complaint my parents have

The staff was very caring to my husband & me also. I think they could use a new common room & activities. I loved the staff & they were very caring with my husband & myself. Allowed me to be with my husband anytime of day or night! They were very good about calling if there was a problem. 911 included.

My father-in-law went to the "Blake" from a "rehabilitation center" that was awful. He had decompensated considerably. He refused to go to meals or participate in any activities. I was disappointed that they "couldn't " make him go out of his room. When I was there I "made" him go out. He didn't last long there through no fault of anyone at the "Blake". I believe if we could have moved him there sooner it would have been better.

Had some issues getting the payment of the rent organized. They're a little behind in the electronic payment process They need a little more help. They're keeping up as best they can with the number of employees they have that show up to work For what they provide, they do a great job. The staff is very interactive with the residents. It's great that they know them by name on sight. Sometimes it's hit or miss. The process of getting food to the rooms of the residents needs to be redone. Again they need more help. There's always something for the residents to do. [name removed] was very helpful throughout the process of getting our dad into the facility. She provided updates along the way up until he was moved in. [name removed] the facility manager is amazing! She's been very helpful and patient with all of us. She's kept us up to date on the changes and challenges they've endured. She made it a point to provide her direct number to allow us to reach out to her.

What our family likes the most about THE Holidays Regency House is the friendliness of the staff members, especially [name removed]. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to others.

This is a lovely community. The only issue was my loved one needed a lot of care, which I wasn’t aware of until we got here. As a result I had to relocate him to a 24-hour care facility. This is a great place for seniors that can still live independently.

Environment is peaceful and friendly and all requests made are generally responded to immediately. I would recommend to others.

My loved one is currently a resident at Holiday Regency House and overall it's been a good experience at this facility. The friendliness is great. My loved one loves the food! The staff, quality of care and value for cost are good. I would recommend this facility to others.

We lucked out - dad really likes it there.All of the factors I listed here and the biggest one - dad liked everything. And it was within our budget. We actually were really interested in another place in Charlottesville, and would have gone there, BUT they only had one space open...and they rented that in the 2 hours from when I took a tour and I called to say "we like it, and we'll take it." They had rented it to someone else. Can't remember the name of it at the moment, but it was a blessing in disguise, because while I liked it, dad didn't like it as much as I did. So I was kind of driving on that one (mainly because it was good quality and a bit cheaper than the Blake), but when we decided on the Blake it was a little more expensive (but well within our budget), and he liked it better. So I'm very glad that first place filled up and couldn't take him.

We picked this community because of the meals, activities, and cost. It's been a very good experience.

We picked this community because of the price and my parents could not afford many other communities. It's good for the money. I would recommend to others.

Nouveau Marc was very welcoming to all it's residents. Activities were fun and enjoyable. Food was okay but it beat cooking. I would recommend for seniors who can manage on their own. Great Place.

My loved one is currently a resident at Holiday River's Edge and the his experience at this facility has been overall good so far. The staff and the meals are very appreciated. The TV hookup has been difficult, but that is not the staff's fault. The provider is not the fastest. Overall, my loved one is very happy at Holiday River's Edge and I would recommend this facility to others.

Overall, my mom's experience has been good. However, she is NOT happy with the meals at all. I and my brother have lunch with her there and I agree with her. The food is really bland and tasteless. It tastes like it was frozen and heated in a microwave. Lasagna was frozen in middle. Sandwiches are soggy. My mom. Has lost weight since she has been there. We bring her food to keep in her fridge.

We picked this community, because they had more activities, more people, a lot more senior veterans, spacious studios, the staff is helpful, the rent is affordable,the local stores are close proximity within walking distance. It's ok the residents are friendly and they have a great deal of activities and the staff are helpful but sometimes you have to watch the meals they can come hot or cold but there is always a remedy. Although, the food could be improved.
