Century Park Associates

We chose The Abbewood because of the location of the facility itself. The staff members could use some improvement on their communication to families. He loves the food they are chef prepared meals. It has been hard because of the times, he went in right in the middle of covid and I haven't seen him much. But overall I would recommend to others looking.

I toured Cherry Creek on behalf of my loved one, and I thought that the community was very nice. However, it seemed to me that it would be too fancy. My loved one was looking for a place with a more cozy, money feel, so we continued our search.

They have good Activities Take you shopping Residents all very nice & helpful Areas to improve: Give you better Transportation to Doctors More nutritious food Make rooms fire safe Help. In helping to Assist you with tiny problems like help you pull on anklet socks etc. Very important is have someone at all times to open locked doors so people can get in to bring you things & to see you! More safety features!

Staff and residents are very friendly and engaging. As far as the food goes, they need more variety and better choices for the residents to pick from.

I think our situation is a bit different Papa still drives, so he's always gone, he sleeps & eats there, but would prefer to be always on the go. He does share some issues with the amount of staff turn over, the driver for the traveling club left because the facility was making him use his own money for gas, & the food is always an on going issue, to cold, no taste, not enough, just want to mention my papa is food driven so that plays a part in him being kind or unhappy

I would tell them that if their person is not completely cognizant and aware of everything that is going on around them that they should avoid the community immediately. If they choose to move into the facility I would strongly recommend multiple cameras in the room.

It's been great and a great value. Then a guest moved in that is causing problems and Mayfair says there is nothing they can do! So we are not happy with the director!!!

It was good. The retirement village was too expensive to maintain residence. The staff was stellar. One in fact by the name of [name removed] who I think was the managing director at the time actually was very instrumental in saving my life!! High praise for the staff - ALL of them. Me ka ha'aha'a me aloha piha!

The elevator in the skilled care building has been down at least a month and will be down for another few weeks. Elevator in Independent Living is unreliable. Food options on menu is not always available. Sometimes, salads or hotdogs or milk isn't even available. Rent increased but food options and taste decreased, driver to take to doctor visits are limited and elevator is Out of Order sometimes so no way to get downstairs.

My loved one moved out after 3 months. The food was terrible. The place is old it needs a face lift. The staff members there were all good! While my husband was there, both elevators were not working at one time. Fire code??? Drag the clients down he stairs on a blanket??? I would not recommend The Bridge at Lawrenceville?

My experience with the community as it is very homey, feeling very friendly residence and older place.They have some work to do, but it's a nice place. Good value lowest prices around.

We were happy with Garden Plaza at first. The workers are great but the management company is poor. The facility had water issues in January and the place is still torn up. A normal business would have completed the work long ago. To add to the insult, they are raising the rent at the same time that many of the services are not available due to construction. We are looking to move our parents out of Garden Plaza into a place with better management.

Mother feels that administration is harsh. However we must consider the source. Mother has not been a model resident and makes choices not to participate. Though I will say she seems to be more settled now that it has been a year. Dining room staff are caring and helpful to residents.

Many of the staff were fine. Some were rude and inattentive however. Also, the quality and level of care in the mornings was lacking - nowhere near what we were told to expect. Not all of the nursing & aide staff seems to be adequately trained in handling patients in palliative / hospice care status. I should also add that a member of the senior leadership team was particularly uneducated regarding end of life care and actually disregarded (and went contrary to) the patient and family's wishes.

For the most part, we have found the staff to be likable and helpful. There were some items in the sales pitch that were misleading. For example, my mother doesn't 'check in' every morning by a certain time, and there is no follow-up to make sure she's okay. It was advertised to us that the facility provided cable TV, but the cable TV quality is very limited and poor. Radio reception in the room is poor and the shower head in the shower is difficult and awkward for an older person. We were also told that for the first day or two my mother was in residence an 'ambassador' (friendly resident) would come to her door to show her around and help her fit in. That never happened. According to my mother, housekeeping is very good, however, the cleaning lady does not speak English! Even so, my mother and the cleaning lady, who is VERY nice, still manage to communicate. It would be easier though, if she spoke some English. My mother does not seem to be very satisfied with the food. She continues to do most of her own cooking. We and my mother like the overall 'feel' of Garden Plaza. I think some of my mother's dissatisfaction probably comes from her not wanting to socialize very much, which is not the facility's problem.

The site has had major flooding and mold issues and extremely slow to respond and resolve the issue and many of the collaboration spaces have been compromised and no longer available for use. The food has dramatically gone down hill since we joined and it's under new management. The people who work there are great

If you can get yourself down to meals and fend for yourself, all is good. If not - good luck. Not an abundance of empathy. Based off of our experience, I do not recommend The bridge at Charleston.

Overall, I would rate Garden Plaza at a 3 in most categories. Although Staff and residents are friendly, meals are merely adequate. The menu is limited and repetitive- but what they do serve I find tasty. There are limited activities, but good transportation for non-drivers. The rent, compared to other residences I visited, is reasonable. Bottom line: you get what you pay for!

Our family had an in person tour with Bridgeview Estate and for us they seemed to be most focused on independent living. Our Mom needs more assistance. They called to let me know they couldn't accept her but 2 weeks later asked if she wanted to come. Also the facility was too big for her.

My biggest issue with the quality of care was that they interviewed [name removed] and accepted him, but aft about 3 months they wanted him moved out to a place that provided memory care. They should have done a better job up front in the interview. I told them he had short term memory issues and that he was very slow. They were quick to move him into a wheelchair after he moved there to make it easier on the staff and then said he needed 2 man lift which they didn't provide. I would only recommend Bridge at Inverrary if the person moving in has no memory issues and does not require a wheel chair.
