The Opal Senior Living

Moved Mom in Two days ago! These people are so caring and empathetic to there residents and there families! I see great things for my mom here! People who care and listen not to mention how beautiful and clean! Highly Recommend!

There was a learning curve when it comes to the community with doctor visits and doctor care, so make sure you understand those. The community is very clean, and the staff is very friendly also. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

We chose Belvedere Commons because of the location was near to us and the price was the best and when we visited everyone was wonderful and it has continued to be that way. They do provide shared and private rooms, my mom has a single large room and it is great size for her. The caregivers who are here in the different areas really care and go out of their way. When we visit my mom we always hear them interacting with residents like it is their own family, they are so calm and patient. I would highly recommend to others looking.

We chose Grand Villa of New Port Richey because this one looked nicer and the staff members answered all their questions, it was just overall a better feeling than others that we looked into. The room sizes here are nice, she is in a room for 2 but she is the only one in there so it is plenty big for what she needs. We think that they go above and beyond and would absolutely recommend them to other families who are looking.

I thought Belvedere was nice. The only issue we had was how their rooms were arranged. They divided the room in two so you had a small front room and a small back room. We just didn’t like the room layout, and there's nothing they could do about that. The tour itself was great. The woman who led the tour was wonderful. We just didn’t see our loved one living there due to the layout.

Very pleased so far with admission and the first week

We chose the facility because of the convenient location. The activities director is exceptional and has gone out of her way to encourage her to participate in the activities that are provided and help my mom. The staff here are just great and make her feel comfortable and accepted. I would recommend to others looking.

My dad is at this facility and I sure am glad that I chose Grand Villa. Staff is simply awesome and my dad loves it there. Says it feels like home. There is practically no turnover which is the main reason I chose this place because it says a lot of how happy employees are and says a lot about management and owners. The maintenance guys are simply great. I just can’t say enough good things about Grand Villa.

The price has been going up, we seemed to get charged for something new each month and the food could better and needs more variety. I would recommend this community to others.

I have had my aunt at Brookdale Century Ave for the last 4 years and my mother has been there for the last 3 years. We have had a great experience throughout the entire time. The staff has always shown a great deal of care for all of the residents. Up until the Pandemic I have spent a lot of time visiting this facility and have never seen anything that caused me to be concerned. The meals are of good quality and served promptly while hot. My mother has even been asked if there is a meal she would like to see served. The whole environment seems like a big family. Residents are definitely treated with respect and care.

My mom has been at Brookdale Inver Grove Heights for about six months. We are pleased that we found this comfy, homey place—my mom made up her mind about it on the first visit! It was scary for her to think about moving from her home, but the friendly, accommodating atmosphere and personnel at BIGH helped to eliminate her fears. The director and head of nursing are experienced and knowledgeable and provide really quick response whenever any questions or needs arise. The personal attention is very appreciated. The common areas and outdoor patio feel like home. It's in a nice neighborhood and easy to visit. I think the number one thing about BIGH is how much they care that my mom is healthy, happy, and has what she needs. They listen patiently to her requests (and mine). I think they handled the Covid situation very well. I recommend it.

My father, who will be 99 soon, has been at Brookdale IGH for a little over a year. When we first decided on Assisted Living, he needed 24-hour full care. He did not need a "resort". Ideally we all wanted a nice, cozy, home-like place with attentive care. Brookdale IGH provides that. The attentive care is best of all. The care staff responds within minutes of a call for help. That is hard to get consistently at a large facility. The facility is definitely "homey". It is basically a big house with private rooms for the residents, a TV-Game-Social Room, a fireplace reading room, a dining & activity room with kitchen and a nice back yard patio,. The daily fresh made meal menu is flexible. Want something different, just ask. The exercise & activity periods are always looked forward to by my dad. The staff is warm, friendly and there for your assistance and care when you need them. If your loved one needs a more personal level of assistance and care, I recommend Brookdale IGH.

My father has been a resident at Brookdale Inver Grove for 3 years now. Their staff does an exceptional job with his care. He always talks about how great the home cooked meals are and the social activities that allow him to connect with the other residents. My father calls Brookdale Inver Grove his home and we couldn’t ask for anything more.

The residents get more personal care here, and they keep them more active. And they pay closer attention to them, for instance noticing mood changes. They noticed this wasn't normal behavior and followed up, and they found out about a UTI. They play really close attention to their residents. The resident apartments are clean, they clean the bathrooms, an they even clean under the bed. Anytime I go to visit, I see activities going on. They do a good job of keeping the residents pretty busy.

Our loved one at the community really enjoys the meals that they provide. It is a smaller community and they seem to take more one on one time with the residents, it does not have an institutional feel. It is more like having an apartment in a complex rather than a room in a facility.

My family is so grateful to the management team and the wonderful staff. Most was blessed to be able to spend her last year in such a great palce.

We chose this Belvedere Commons because the process was easy, they were not pushy just very helpful and friendly. They have a Facebook page where they post pictures of what the residents are doing. It has been a good experience so far and I would recommend them.

We chose Belvedere Commons because of the convenient location and the value for the money. The room sizes here are great, just the right size for her. The staff are always quick to get back with you if you have any questions. I would recommend them to others looking.

I really like this place and [name removed] was very helpful. Mom's primary care MD is next door and can continue to see Mom. I really think this may be the place.

They are very good about getting back to us with updated regarding our loved one. They tell us if she has having a good day or a bad day, so being far away we appreciate their good communication.
