Bridge Senior Living

I would NOT recommend Heritage Place to anyone again. Up to about 2 months ago I sang their praises. Since then I have tried turning things into anyone who will listen! They do not do what they say as far as making calls and checking on the residents. Simply.... they are lazy and hire crappy, lazy, ignorant staff. The management does not own any part of what happens at the facility. Blame game of it wasn't me.... terrible leadership so I guess it makes sense the staff follows right? Lead from the top?!!

The Grande looks nice on the outside but is a house of horror on the inside. Always short staffed, in addition to having the laziest staff. If your loved one needs memory care, this is NOT the place to go. They mislead you and tell you all these special things they do, however, they do none of it. Residents sit in urine soaked depends, are not regularly showered, wear the same clothes for days, lay in soiled beds and are not watched closely whatsoever. The rooms go days without being cleaned. I have witnessed feces in the bathroom and bed of my relative's room several times, along with the common restroom. The so called activities they try to say take place are so limited and literally a joke. They do hardly anything with the residents but let them sit or wander the halls. They never get to go outside in memory care and not once in past two years went on an outing. Staff disappears. Food is subpar, nothing like described. Management is horrible, especially the administrator.

They are understaffed. Woefully unqualified people from temp agencies dispensing vital medications to the residents. You pay thousands a month for a level of care that they fail to provide. If you want your loved one to be taken care of, don’t choose Harbor Chase.

My loved one was previously a resident at The Grande at Laumeier Park and the experience was terrible. The cleanliness, meals and friendliness were poor. The care services, staff, activities and value for cost were terrible. I would not recommend The Grande at Laumeier Park to anyone. Not a good experience for our family or our loved one.

There was very little communication between staff members and family, resulting in a near death experience for my mother-in-law. There was a lot of upper management turnover when my loved one was there. It may have gotten better since then, but I would definitely recommend talking to residents before placing a loved one in this facility.

Our experience at The Grande was terrible. Sadly, my dad died after being there for two months. He was on the Memory Care floor. Supervision was extremely poor. There are significant staffing needs, and the leadership does not have the respect of the workers because the workers do not follow their directions. We dealt with a different issue almost every day. The room was not cleaned, our dad's clothes were not cleaned, and/or my dad had not eaten. Because the supervision was extremely poor, clothing and food were always taken from my dad's room. My dad had his own issues, so he is not innocent, but with better leadership and staffing the supervision would surely improve. We would never recommend someone to take a family member to The Grande at Laumeier Park. It looks like a great place on the outside and does look nice inside, as well. The issue is their care for residents, leadership, staffing, and supervision. Especially on the Memory Care floor.

My mother was a resident there for 2 1/2 years until her passing in 2019. My mother had immediate memory loss and unfortunately that was taken advantage of by a particular aide that assisted her in her hygiene care and dressing routines. Once I was able to put the pieces together and voice my concerns, the situation was addressed by changing her aides. Unfortunately that didn’t last forever because my concerns were heightened again as I was preparing to move her to a different memory care facility. Don’t let looks fool of a beautiful facility fool you and always keep an eye on your loved ones.

My loved one described the community as "horrible" and I would agree. My loved one observed roaches in the building. Another time she reported that she was left on the toilet for a very long time. As far as activiites; they offer music but nothing mentally stimulating. Some of the staff were very kind; others very mean. I would absolutely NOT recommend this place to anyone!

This community is beautiful on the outside, but the inside is a whole different story. Management does nothing, they say things will get better but they don't. The staff is always changing, they can't keep the same caregivers as their overworked and run short. Corporate doesn't care. It's not a bad place to live if you can 100% do everything on your own and plan to clean your own apartment as housekeeping doesn't stay here either.

We had Mom in both the assisted living and memory care at the Enclave. During that time we experienced a range of issues, from poor housekeeping to inconsistent care of my Mom. Garbage overflowing, trays of food left in her room for days, sheets not changed weekly, were just some of the issues we experienced. Mom was found more than once with feces on her clothing. Although we paid extra for more care for Mom, she was still found most days without her hearing aids on, and not wearing her call pendant. I believe the Enclave at Newell Creek suffers from understaffing and poorly trained management.

My mom lived in both Newell Creek's assisted living and memory care units. My family and I had problems from the start, ranging from overflowing trash, laundry not done and bedsheets not changed, to serious issues with my mom's personal care. These issues included her being left in clothing dirty with feces and urine for extended periods of time and employees incorrectly reporting her as having attended activities - even on the day before she died when she spent the day in bed in her room, with me at her side. Management and administration were unwilling/unable to fix the issues with my mom's care. Mgmt/admin were seemingly unwilling/unable to adequately supervise staff, and completely ignored my specific requests for care plans that addressed the care issues we were having. While some Newell Creek employees seemed to genuinely care about the residents, other Newell Creek employees were among the most uncaring and callous people I have ever met.

They did not clean the rooms. They routinely let her run out of toilet paper, clothes were lost. There were no activities although the showed us daily calendars of activities prior to signing up. They expected people in memory care to advocate for themselves. It was bad.

My aunt is a current resident, and they haven’t been feeding her breakfast and lunch. They told me that she is not on the list to get those meals. I didn’t know that it was OK to withhold food from people. She is supposed to be checked on and moved every two hours, but they don’t check on her, let alone move her. She fell a couple weeks ago, and nobody knew how long she was on the floor, because she wasn’t checked on for three hours. She recently was hospitalized for a UTI, because nobody checks her depends. Do not send your relative here, if you love them and care about them. They WILL NOT be properly cared for.

We knew right away this was not the place for our loved one. We walked in and had a scheduled tour, but no one was at the front. We walked around the facility and no one stopped to ask us what we were doing. That is a safety issue. When I stopped a staff member, they were not professional or personable. We made sure to go on a weekend when there was no management there to see what it was like. We walked out within 5 minutes of being there.

We were about to move in, filling out paper work and just needed to sign but then they stopped communicating with us when we had a crisis - they made the whole thing worse. They were not willing to take my loved one after this crisis and did not tell us for 8 days, they made it so much harder on us. They left us in the middle of this crisis with no place to go. They advertise excellence but deliver garbage.

We ended up moving my loved one out of the community after a short stay. My loved one fell in the community within the first few days. The community didn't communicate with the family that our loved one fell and had to be taken to the hospital. The hospital actually had to call me to inform us. The family would communicate concerns and care issues we wanted the community to work on such as making sure to keep our loved one hydrated. This wasn't happening for our loved one by the staff. The community was keeping the residents out of their rooms and in with other residents in common areas. The family was told that the community would allow our loved one to be in their room to feel more comfortable in the community. They weren't willing to accommodate the food requests for the residents, even though they promised the family they would. We never saw activities being done with the residents.

They were short staffed and therefore could not handle the memory care residents and unfortunately our loved one got the brunt of it

Management only cares about themselves and not for staff, they dont respect the staff or the residents......there way of showing appreciation is buying pizza.....please dont take your loved ones to this community.

Went to visit my aunt who has dementia at about 12:45 today. Was still in bed from last night. The room smelled horrible from she and her bed being soaked with urine. Had not been fed all day either since she wasn't gotten up. Place looks very nice but level of care is atrocious. So sad. Our elderly loved ones deserve so much better

not impressed
