Volante Senior Living

My loved one is getting really good care. The value for the money is fine. We picked this community, because it was recommend by a friend. We are pretty happy, with Bay Wood. I would recommend to other families.

Staff are incredibly friendly! Nursing staff isn't easy to get ahold of or return calls made sometimes ever. They've had multiple complaints on the food and the service in the dining hall. They've had meetings with the residents because it's so bad for multiple months now, with no improvement. They have lots of activities, but they are very female focused activities. For active men, there aren't a lot of things to do on a daily basis. The occupational therapy staff is excellent, but the physical therapy staff just doesn't have the equipment, space or ability to give specific, quality individual care.

This was a nice community. It wasn't the right fit for my loved one.

We came at a bad time during the transition to Bayside. But even though, follow up from administration staff is a challenge. The staff that I see working throughout the facility are great and knows what's going on. I only say this because getting the names of the physicians that come to this facility to set mom up with a new primary doctor, never happened. I found the group though and picked a very nice Nurse Practitioner who visits her.

They have been very helpful, and I am satisfied. They are very busy, and sometimes is a challege getting in touch with the nurse. The interaction with the staff has been a pretty good. They have a lot of stuff going on with the activiites.

This was a nice community, it felt more independent living than what our loved one needed.

The staff could not have been more kind or made me feel more comfortable. The facility for my loved one was just too large and the location would have been a far drive for me. I wanted him close so I could visit often.

Bay Wood was very similar to another place we looked at. The tour was good. The person who led the tour was very professional and knowledgeable. For my loved one in a wheelchair, the facility wasn't quite the right fit. But I thought it was a good place.

The location was perfect for our situation and was the major standout with this facility for us. The staff is very friendly and cooperative. They have just been very short handed and had some staffing issues that have caused some minor difficulties, which is why I gave them a 3 on staff. They have a very full calendar with lots of things to participate in which is very good for an active senior. I would recommend them to family and friends.

If you are looking for a place for your loved one, I would say you should consider the Grand Villa. I checked a lot of places and I believe I made the right choice by picking Grand Villa, The residents receive 3 meals a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. The activities are great and the activity director is very good!!

My folks are happy with the place. I think it was a good choice.

I toured this community and it was nice. It's brand new and very clean. Just wasn't quite what we were looking for.

One of the things my dad mentions quite often is how small the portions are at meal time and how unappetizing the food is. Since I haven't been allowed to be with him in the dinning room, I don't know if his comments are accurate. I know nowhere is perfect, but I think I was expecting a bit more

Overall we had a good tour experience with Grand Villa of Pinellas Park.

The rooms were small. No where to walk or get exercise. It did not feel like an assisted living place.

There is much room for improvement with the meals and dining service, the servers can be rude. The apartments are nice but the kitchen appliances need updating.

This community was very nice but I just did not get that right feeling that I was looking for for my loved one. The tour was good and I got all the information that I needed

Sometimes the cleanliness can vary on the assisted living side but on the memory care side it is bar none it is amazing. They have all types of activities like arts and crafts, and movies. They have a juke box that plays music all the time. They have a bunny rabbit that walks around and that the residents can hold. They have different exercises like chair yoga. There is always something to keep them busy.

This is one of the better communities that we looked at comparatively around the area for you or your loved one. They have activities like bingo, happy hour, crafts, special lunches and more for the residents in the community to stay busy. The staff are responsive to request and they try hard to make sure that the patients are taken care of in the community.

They've been very engaged. The staff reaches out to my loved ones, checks on them and includes them in activities. They know us when we come in to visit. And they know exactly where my loved ones are - for instance, if we come in and they're at lunch they can tell us that. They seem to know their residents well, engage with them, and have good relationships with them. So the care has been good. When we first got there, there was a change in ownership and a lot of staff turnover. So we had some difficulties with follow-up and knowing who to ask questions of at first. But that all seems to have ironed itself out now. The food is good, and there's plenty of it. One of my loved one complains there are too many fresh vegetables, but everything I've tried has been excellent.
