Bonaventure

I wouldn't recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The community is very friendly; however, they are short staffed and has a huge staff turnover issue. The food is terrible, and is coming out of a can! It is inedible. The family is providing food to our loved one, because the food offered at the community is our my loved one ill. The housekeeping was supposed to be done weekly, and my loved one was lucky to get 4 times out of the last 7 months. We aren't getting what we were promised and they are not fulfilling the services as promised. In addition, we don't feel we are getting the services that we are paying for monthly. We have been informed by staff that they are sent to different communities and some staff have to travel over 50 miles to get to a location to assist the residents. The apartment my loved one has is beautiful, but it is rarely clean.

I wouldn't recommend you place a loved one here or move here personally. The staff and community is inept in everyway, there isn't one thing I am satisfied with, not even a little. The staff communication with the family is horrible. There is no follow up phone calls, or they will miss appointments to the point the family will keep calling and until the family eventually gives up. My loved one overall doesn't care for the food. Only four meals have been enjoyable, others have been non-edible. There are no napkins or drinks and some meals only consist of a hot dog and canned corn. There has only been one key given to our loved one for their apartment. The staff have a master key; however, they don't know which master key operates which door for the individual apartments. If a resident were to use the pull cord for assistance the staff wouldn't be able to access the resident's room in a timely manner. The community has had months to try to fix this, and it still isn't resolved.

Absolutely horrendous. Don't be fooled by the beautiful building and nice location. Looks good from the outside, awful on the inside. I had to pull my L.O. out of this facility after living here less than a year. Where do I even begin? The first red flag should have been the filthy condition the room was in upon move in. Manager "[name removed]" said she would have housekeeping come clean the room for us prior to move in. It never happened and we had to clean the room and bathroom ourselves. It was absolutely filthy and obviously hadn't been cleaned in months. Restroom had feces all over, hair, and urine drippings. We were willing to overlook this in hopes things would get better. Unfortunately, they only got worse. This place is very understaffed which leads to an extremely poor level of care even though you're paying top dollar. There is a real lack of leadership and structure from the top which results in unhappy employees and a high turn over rate. I never saw the same employees for more t

I finally have a regular housekeeper and he does a great job, so I gave cleanliness a 5. As far as the facility cleanliness, I'd rate that at a 2. The staff really does try here, but the management is terrible. There is no communication within the staff. Communication with residents isn't good, either. For example, the other day I went to use the elevator and it was shut down. I use a walker and rely on the elevator, but it was off. I finally made it to the front desk to tell them. They said that they were aware, that it was shut down for yearly inspection that was happening sometime during that day. That was never communicated to the residents, we had no idea. They could have at least posted signs by the elevator doors to let us know. The food is horrible. It's not good quality, variety, or quantity. The menu seems to be made for a 14 year old boy. Full of junk and processed food. They serve pre-cooked, processed, reheated food. I don't eat it anymore, I make my own meals, But I still pay for it as 2 meals a day are part of the monthly cost, whether you eat them or not, it's not an optional cost. They try with the activities. We usually have one per month, maybe, and most of them are led by residents. We do have a new executive director, so we'll see. I feel so bad for the staff, they try so hard but there just isn't enough of them. You can only do so much with nothing. They're worked to death, get yelled at, and most end up just quitting and leaving. The monthly cost for what I'm actually getting here is outrageous. But I don't want to move. I make it work in Independent Living. My apartment itself is very nice and the pharmacy and gym are both within walking distance and I really like that. However, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. They talk a good talk, but don't deliver anything they promise. I'd say think very carefully and beyond the promises they make during the tour. Also, if you find yourself needing long term care you have to move to the Assisted Living side. That's one of the things I asked about prior to moving in and they weren't truthful with me about it at all.

VERY DISHONEST PEOPLE THERE. DON'T TRUST THEM OR LIVE HERE. ONE STAR IS TOO MUCH FOR THIS SKETCHY PLACE. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. CRAPPY SERVICE. AWFUL STAFF. ONE IN PARTICULAR. SAVE YOUR MONEY. VERY SKETCHY

Do your research! these places LOOK nice and are maybe fine for people who don't need much care. For those who do, they are grossly understaffed. Caregivers are good, but I don't expect them to be there much longer. The director is a [profanity removed] who's only interested in SELLING (which is probably the corporate directive). They need someone capable to run the place

The actual staff that works with residents is great. but as for sales and marketing very overpromised but very much undelivered once actually got into the Bonaventure at Keizer Station. The facility is very pretty on the outside but the inside is not near as great overall.

When I first moved to Oswego Place, I was very satisfied. The executive director was kind and caring. She could be tough at times, but I never thought she was unfair. Then when she left we got a executive director that is the housekeepers daughter. In my opinion she doesn't know how to be a leader. If she gets upset she attempts to lead by intimidation. She lied to me several times and when she got caught, she just got angry. She is also holding approximately [removed]. You can tell how well the place is doing by the number of empty apartments they have. When I left there was 16, that is quite a few for a building with 62 apartments. The place I am at now has "one." If you are considering moving into Oswego Place pay a unannounced visit and talk to the residents, they will tell you the truth. There is one housekeeper for all the apartments, my current place has three.

If you love your loved one, do not put them in this facility. It's a beautiful facility from the outside. However, once your loved one is at the facility, promises are not kept. They provide poor care. Bonaventure is geared towards making money, not caring for your loved one.

We reached out to Bonaventure for some information for our aging parents. We let them know that we were not ready yet and had only just began looking. We gave them one phone number. After visiting, we were continuously harassed including them calling us on phone numbers we did not give them and SHOWING UP AT OUR HOUSE unannounced when we did NOT give them our home address either. This company will invade your privacy if you contact them for information. Please be aware before you share ANY personal information with this facility, especially if your loved ones are unaware that you're looking for a long-term place for them. My husband had to call them and demand they remove us from their list in hopes it will stop the EXTREMELY invasive harassment. Fingers crossed!

Place presents very well and has great curb appeal. That’s where it ends. We had our father in this facility for seven months and had no issues until his care level required assisted living. The turnover of staff, the incompetent leadership and general turmoil all contributed to a fear for safety of our father. On more than one occasion we would find him looking like a homeless man; unshaven for several days, dirty clothes, housekeeping nonexistent with overflowing trash and had not eaten for two days on another occasion due to no assistance to get to the dinning room or being checked on. I confirmed this trend at the nearby hospital after he had a fall resulting in and requiring an emergency room visit. The charge nurse said to remove your father from this facility asap as she had personally dealt with multiple similar issues.

Don't let your loved one live here. They really don't care. And the real issue isn't with the caregivers. The real issue is the higher ups. People at the home office and the Executive Director. The caregivers care. But they are overworked and nobody wants to help. Patient had staples in his head for over 60 days. They are supposed to be for 10!! Same patient has sutures on for over 90 days. They keep an employee they know full well is drinking and sleeping on the job. Because she's tenured!! What??? Wrong is wrong. They let caregivers go not because they've done anything wrong but because they disagreed with management and called them on it. They really just want your money. They have absolutely no intention of keeping their word. But they will weave a great tale to get you in there. I've seen it first hand.

My loved one fractured her pelvis when she was here and they never told me that it happened and would not tell me any of the details. She had to go to the hospital and they would not take her back. She did not receive good care here and I would not recommend anyone put their family members in this facility.

Don’t believe their ads it’s one big lie this place is terrible not at all like it was supposed to be when you moved in the food is terrible. The housekeeping is nonexistent the bus is a laugh activities what is that overall I give it a -10

My husband and I don’t take lightly writing this review but we want to help others be aware of what you might face when you move your loved one into a Bonaventure property or any other assisted living facility. We went through so much with this facility and it won't let us post our whole story. You better get everything in writing and be ready for a constant headache. They are not worth your time and energy.

Bad experience the story was never the same way twice in a row. Looking for assisted living but because that only offered 2 hours a day they recommended memory care all inclusive and he would get all the care he needed for the $7k quote. We told them this was a trial for us and him and if it didn’t work out we would take him out. We were provided a copy of the contract for review. When it was time to sign the contract the price went up to $7.4K We pushed back and they returned to the original $7k but added a two year addendum We thought we were signing the contract we had reviewed. After a close review of what we signed we pushed back again. They removed the addendum. We moved him in out after 12 days they failed to do what they promised to do. He needs a knee brace but it was never on right bed was not changed weekly clothes were not washed hair was never combed. He was taken to meals and returned to his room we were misled. They kept a $2k community fee and $2.8k rent.

It is a very sad state of affairs when Bonaventure of Gresham cares more about money than the residents. They are understaffed and the facility is dirty because of it. Residents are neglected. Complaints go unresolved. The staff is awesome and doing their best but "corporate" is only concerned with the almighty dollar and making a profit. It is unforgivable and down right disgusting.

My husband was in the memory care unit for 9 months. I was lead to believe the staff would be able to provide proper care for him. After a few months his health declined that is when I found out they don't have licensed care givers and not enough care givers to properly care for the amount of patients they have in residence Also they did not have a RN on staff for several months. Would advise do your research before placing a loved one here.

We checked my Dad and Step Mother into Gibson Creek when the hospital discharge my Step Mother after her stroke. They were helpful and accommodating to get them in very quickly. However, almost immediately they started to fail on the assisted living part. My Step Mother didn't get her critical blood thinner medication for three days resulting in an emergency room visit. We lost all faith in the Gibson Creek facility and officially submitted our 30 day notice to move out. The family moved them out within a week. My step sister moved in during that week to make sure my Step Mother was provided with her critical medications. I would not use Gibson Creek Assisted living facility under any circumstance. Your loved one may not survive it.

Very disappointed in Woodland in Lacey, WA. My parent has only been there for less than 3 months. Still waiting on new carpet and linoleum in apt. Something floating in water carafes at dining tables. Concerns brought to management three times; no change. Three wounds on parent's back from putting patch at wrong place and tearing the skin, over and over again. Billing problems since day one. Never any answer from ANYONE regarding bills. Receiving statement on the second of every month, but due on the first, resulting in late charges. Waiting for pro-rated rent, since parent in facility for only 13 days first month there. Medications and showers not on consistent basis. Very upsetting and would NEVER recommend this facility to anyone!
