Chapters Living

We toured this community and like that it was very new. The staff was nice and the staff. They offer activities for the residents. We would recommend that families tour this new community for the options for a loved one.

Sunrise of Barrington is a very clean and beautiful community. The staff is very friendly and caring. My Mom is in the memory care unit and I feel that we have made a good choice for her security and safety. The staff seems well educated in handling any problems that may arise. I'm not sure of the activities that are available for my Mom. I'm really not sure what she can is capable of doing at this time. Sunrise of Barrington is one of the more affordable ones we had looked at, but it is still expensive. We may have to keep looking for something more affordable.

The staff at Autumn Leaves are friendly and they do accommodate for my mother needs in the Memory Unit. I think that they could work on their activities more so that are geared more to what the residents would do to enter act with one another and stimulate them more. My mom says that she is bored out her mind. My mom goes to the main dining room as she is a real chatty, happy, go lucky sort, and likes to be around other people, unfortunately, there are a lot of residents that can not communicate as much as my mother does. So my mom does stay away from them. The community called me one day when my mom had a spat with another resident and I felt the situation was not handled correctly by the staff as they felt my mom should be medicated and I did not agree with them. The meals are done well and meet my mom's diet and she enjoys them. Autumn Leaves does have a doctor who comes in every Thursday to monitor all the patients. Autumn Leaves is very nice and I would recommend it to my friends and family.

This was a community I was considering moving my husband too, it is a nice facility. Our tour of it went very well. The atmosphere was calm, and relaxing. Everyone was kind to my husband, and I. The staff was friendly, and everything went well. We did find another community that suited our needs better, but our tour went well of this facility.

The largest selection of residential floor plans (all similar efficiency type apartments of varying sizes) as well as semi private options. Rooms furnished with bed, dresser, night stand and desks. Comfortable residential area, with nice and clean public gathering areas. Dining somewhat austere. [Removed] was attentive and very helpful. Facility offers resbite stays which could provide 3-29 days of care and opportunity to "check out the facility" Observed attentive and friendly care givers. Full calendar of daily activities as do most all facilities. No sponsored outside travel. Secure front door with restricted entry from outside.

They are very nice but way out of my price range. For what they ar offering for activities it was more than I wanted to pay. It was a fine tour and I was impressed with Denise, she was knowledgeable. Overall, it is out of my way. We need to be able to reach my loved one as soon as i can.

The community at Autumn Leaves of Tulsa is wonderful. It is nicely kept and clean throughout. The staff were very friendly and Anthony was a charm to work with! The layout of the building had four different branches to the center. The layout was not what we were wanting for our loved one.

very home like place; spacious, clean. residents and care givers seem happy; Patricia gave an informative tour. I think mother would be happy here.

My mother has done very well there at Heritage Village of Gladstone. The overall atmosphere is very warm and comforting. I know that she is being very well taken care of. The service, the staff, the food, and everything all seems to be above par. The only area for improvement I have noticed is that mom needs a little more encouragement to make sure that she is showering as often as she needs to. Overall we are really very pleased.

Stonehaven seems to be very good right now, other than when she moved in on a Monday, the owner was out, she came straight from the hospital and there was no orientation for over a week. There was no welcome, no one came and talked to her, she didn't know about anything, menus to fill out, or when meal times were, or even where the dining room was. The only other thing is that there seems to be a lack of communication between nurses aides and the director of nursing. The director of nursing is very nice and very conscientious. They are very up on cleanliness, and the food is excellent, the dining area they keep it clean. They transport her to doctors appointments, which I love. The nurses aides are very friendly, and treat the residents with respect.

Lovely facility but we have lower cost options

My mother lived here for 1 1/2 yrs. She was well taken care of & loved. Meals were great! She never just stayed in her room because they encouraged socializing as much as could be expected. Activities to encourage their long term memory & creativity, snacks, & plenty of time for a nap! The staff became an extended family to me! There is not a perfect place, but they strive to be the best caregivers for the residences' well-being & happiness. Stop by and spend an hour there at different times of the day. The redirection for my Mom was extremely important due to dementia. That isn't possible at an assistant living facility, it wasn't needed during her 3 years there. Our loved ones needs change over the years. Don't wait too long to make the change for them, they can't do it alone!!

My father came from Atlanta to Autumn Leaves of Tulsa because of the staff. He was at Emory in Atlanta and my family had nothing but issues. Emory kept him drugged up and in him room for most of the day. Autumn Leaves is more like a home, and not an area to keep Alzheimer patients. When my sister got him to Tulsa, he was so medicated that he could not walk on his own. In a short time, Autumn Leaves (with a doctor that comes to the facility) had him off his medication completely. He was dancing to the music in the main area in no time. I lost my dad 8 months after he arrived and I wish he would have had more time to enjoy the last days of his life. He loved Autumn Leaves, and the staff was very good to him, as I know it took a lot of patience with his PTSD, and Alzheimers.

We stopped in at the heritage Village and found the community was nice but it did not fit what my mom was looking for. My mom has a scooter that she needs to get around and we felt there were no fire exits for emergency for her to get out in time also we felt there was not enough staff to help she such a occurence was to happen. We also found that the community was a little bite more what we were looking for spend.

Their fees are a little high. The staff is friendly - the nursing staff does not seem to be very friendly. When you approach them, yeah, but when you just see them they kind of run other way. I don't get any questions answered, put it that way. Most of the time the nursing staff either doesn't know or isn't there. The doctor ordered my mother to be on insulin that lasted 36 hours but it was being given to her every 24 hours and she became hypoglycemic and we almost lost her. I think that was the doctor's mistake but the nurses could have caught on. It's kind of like deliver the meds and go home. I'm a nurse so I know and that's just not the way you run things. They were helpful in getting eveything together to transfer my mom. I have to give them credit for that.

Visited on 5/18. Smallest Sunrise facility within 15 minutes of my house. Rooms have handicap accessible showers. Closest to doctors and Good Shepherd Hospital. Will cost about $116/day. Nurse from facility will assess dad on 5/20. Overall this place is much better for my dad than home.

We have toured Heritage Village and have set a move-in date, subject to family approval of my decision.

Another Sunrise entirely devoted to AD care through hospice. Well run with cohesive staff. In an outlying suburb, mostly staffed and populated by local people. Perhaps 5 years old with many original staff. Very appealing & suitable. Point system here differs from point system at Sunrise Wilmette.

We toured with Sunrise of Barrington and right when we walked in, all we could smell was urine. It was also very cluttered.

My parents needed an assisted living community after leaving a nursing rehab facility. Because they were both dealing with memory issues, and wanted to be able to stay together. I followed up with Memory Care per recommendation from the nursing home. Mom and daddy were happy there...and even though mom has since passed on it is still daddys "home sweet home"!
