Watermark Retirement Communities

I moved my Mom into the memory care unit at Elan in March and glad I found it. I love coming to Elan to visit my Mom! The atmosphere is joyful and happy. You feel it when you walk in the door. All of the employees are friendly and call you by name. They enjoy working there. I overheard one employee say that they look forward to coming to work everyday which was great to hear. I have had Mom in several Senior Living facilities and have learned that if the employees are happy, paid a decent salary, and feel valued by their employer, then the care that is given is quality care. The activity director is outstanding and has such creative fun things to do for the residents. The caregivers are instructed on caring for residents with Dementia and the program is in place to help the residents lives be more fulfilling is wonderful. The other day when I came for a visit, Mom was just finishing up cutting strawberries. She was smiling. The facility is clean as well as the rooms...no funky smell anywhere! The architecture of the facility is light and airy and plenty of green space for the residents to enjoy the outdoors. The food is excellent as well and served home style. Most importantly Mom is smiling and happy where she is. She is doing less sleeping due to the fact she is not bored and that is a good thing.

Excellent facility.

My first visit to Elan Southpark Meadows left me speechless. It is so beautiful and everyone is so welcoming from the moment you enter. Comments I've overheard speak of the rustic, resort feeling. One said "All this hotel needs is a beach!" and another said "I know there are 5 star hotels but this one needs an extra star!" The residents are so happy in this environment of great care, amazing cuisine and activities featuring multiple outings weekly, bingo 7x/week, exercise 6x/week and more. To sum up the Elan experience, one resident is so happy he will tell you he feels like he jumped off the Titanic and is now on the Love Boat!

Very nice facility and friendly staff, extensive cruise ship-like amenities available but possibly way more than what my dad would appreciate. Very costly

My Mom is happy with her new lifestyle and experiences. East Village Place (EVP) is doing and excellent job and is a good fit for Mom. EVP feels more like home than any place I have seen. EVP has a wide variety of activities so that all residence are kept active. Mom has made a quite few new friends and sits with a great group for her meals. All EVP personnel are professional, friendly and caring. Yes, EVP was the right choice for Mom.

My father is happy with his experience at The Fountains so far. The place is clean and well organized. My father has had no complaints, he is happy with his apartment and the staff that work there. The food is good as well.

I really like this community for good care for my mother in law. We were able to have a meal there and the food appeared to be good and we did it enjoy it. The staff is active with her, This is a great value and they offer a special floor for her needs. We would recommend this community for many reasons for the care and the value.

By all means the tour was welcoming. The staff were real nice and generous with their time. I have no objection to how nice the facility was. Although the idea is very appealing it did not meet our interests. The location, eating arrangements, and smaller unfavorable characteristics declined our offer here.

I am happy with the care that my father is getting in this community. We like that the community like that the community is clean. The food does need some improvement. He is offered to participate in activities., but not at this time. We would highly recommend the care and value to other families.

I really enjoyed my tour of this community. I liked everything about it. The community looked great, everything was very well-kept. The staff was very kind and friendly. They have many resources available for the residents. It is truly a great community, but my family didn't think this was the best choice for me. Overall it was a very nice tour, and this is a good community.

This is a wonderful community. The staff members are wonderful and very caring. They offer alot of great activities. The food seems to be good.She is starting to participate in the activities that are available. She is happy with the meals and the variety. I would recommend this for other families that need care for a family member.

It has been a great experience for us here. My mother is doing okay, but I know she is being cared for well. The community looks great, they do a very good job with the cleanliness. The staff is perfect, they have been wonderful to work with. She is safe and in good hands. They are providing her with great care. This is a community I would recommend, it has worked out very well for us here.

Our experience was great with this community. My loved one stayed for a day and a half but during that time the staff and caregivers were terrific. Its is a great place and everything from the care to cleanliness was wonderful. A Place For Mom has been so helpful and we appreciate all that was done for us.

The first thing I noticed when we walked in was the clean smell. It was like a breath of fresh air. My father in law feels the food is excellent. The dining staff are accommodating to his needs. The family interaction with the staff has been very positive. They offer a variety of activities and I would recommend this community.

My mom has settled in very well at The Fountains At Greenbriar. The staff have been extremely helpful and courteous with the transition. The community has a lot to offer, a variety of activities, and amenities to choose from. They provide a wide range of options for meals. We are satisfied with the care the staff is providing!

Mom was not happy with moving into this community. She does say that the staff treat her like royalty. The staff have bent over backwards to make her feel welcome. They are encouraging her to become more active in the community and with other residents. She likes the food and they keep the community spotless. I would recommend this community.

Awesome, staff extremely friendly, beautiful grounds, excellent food, very clean, great living conditions. I know where I'm going to be at age 62.

Our mother (96 years old) has resided at Rose Tree Place for 8 years. We found consistently the entire staff is caring, friendly, loving and accommodating to her needs. Her care and attention to details of care & awareness has been of the highest quality. The setting of RTP has the feeling of a fine hotel on a hill surrounded by woods from the lobby to the 3 floors of the apartments. RTP is the perfect size as each staff person develops a personal relationship with each resident. The daily jammed pack group fun activities schedules has bettered her life being active & social. Mom living at Rose Tree Place has added to her quality of life and given the family quality time to spend with mom. All levels of management communicative & easily accessible for questions and concerns. We highly recommend Rose Tree Place for your loved one.

If you are looking for just the right place for your Mom and/or Dad—Rose Tree Place is where you want them to be! It’s a challenging time when sons/daughters/parents have to come together and “make the decision” that it’s time and your parent(s) can no longer live alone and need a little assistance. It’s a hard decision taking your loved one(s) from a home they know for so long, their personal property and most especially their independence. This was the case with my Dad. He has Parkinson’s and mobility issues and falls frequently. After 2 years, many visits to the ER, coaching to us by his Doctors we finally had to sit down, talk and make that decision. My husband and I started the process by researching and making appointments to tour several facilities in the Media/Rose Tree area. Upon arriving at Rose Tree Place we were greeted by Michael [Removed], Director. Michael was awesome! He couldn’t have been more professional, pleasant, helpful, explaining the facility, how things work and helping us get things in place. He said hello to every resident we passed and knew everyone by name. When we found Rose Tree Place we knew this was it! But to be fair we took my Dad to a few places my husband and I had selected and asked Dad to pick since this was going to be his new home. He picked Rose Tree Place! Rose Tree Place is a beautiful community situated in Media on lovely grounds with walking trails. Once inside you walk into a marble lobby with grand piano that overlooks an outdoor patio courtyard. The library just off the common room is stocked with books where residents can relax and take in a new read. The residents come together to eat in a dining room that looks like a restaurant and overlooks the courtyard. Residents order from a menu that changes daily and their food is delivered right to their table. When they’re done they can walk-about the place, get involved in one of the many activities going on or go back to their apartment. The resident’s quarters are nothing like I’ve ever seen. Most residents live in one bedroom apartments that have high ceilings, windows, full kitchen and lots of closet space. And residents can take their stuff from home with them to their new apartment. So while it’s not exactly ‘home’ it sort of looks a bit like home. And I have to mention the smell—the air is so clean and fresh. The place is immaculate! Truly Rose Tree feels more like a quaint Bed & Breakfast then an assisted living facility. Most important to the “aesthetics” is how the residents are treated and cared for. Everyone knows everyone’s name. Residents are treated and cared for with the utmost respect. If you’re looking for an Assisted Living Facility in or around the Delaware County area—Rose Tree Place is a MUST see and THE place you’ll want your parents to be.

My loved one moved in here a little while ago. It's a nice place, it worked out pretty well. She seems happy there, I would give them a five out of five.
