Best choice I made for my mother's care

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Autumn Leaves of Crystal Lake. My mother has resided at the memory care facility for the past three years and I am grateful everyday for their exceptional care. The staff is very caring and attentive to every resident, assisting whenever needed. Activities are provided on a regular basis. I feel welcome whenever I visit my mom. As my mother’s dementia progresses, the Autumn Leaves staff and the nurses are always informing me of what needs to be done to continue her treatment. Their communication with family is wonderful, helpful and always knowledgeable. The facility is beautiful and makes residents and their family feel like they are home.

So far so good for my mom. she seems happy and we are pleased with the move. They are giving updates about my mom, making good meals, and experienced with dementia. I like that they specialize in dementia residents and from what I compared, they provide the most activities specifically for dementia Everything is designed with the idea of a dementia resident living here. I would recommend them to family or friends.

Excellent choice for supportive living with memory care

We arranged for our sister-in-law to move in. All of the people we've worked with there have been very helpful and friendly through the entire process. They seem to have quite a few activities to try and keep the residents stimulated. The facility seems quite clean although a little worn. Our sister-in-law's family were her animals. She was able to keep one cat (so far anyway).

We found Fox point through A Place for Mom. They were a tremendous help and offered so many resources and support to my brother and I. I truly appreciated all of their help! We are so happy with Fox Point. The atmosphere here is so friendly and it truly feels like a community. People are always going downstairs to gather at the fireplace and socialize. It was everything we were looking for as far as proximity to family, cleaning services, and overall atmosphere.

Great place for the Green Bay area

* Bellevue is everthing Mom & I hoped it would be. They even welcome pets! * There are a number of floor plans to choose from, including 2 bedroom-2 bath, 2 bedroom-1 bath, 1 bedroom-1 bath, & studio. * Residents who transfer from independent to assisted status may stay in the same unit. * Bellevue assigns volunteer resident "ambassadors" to new residents, who take them to meals & activities & introduce them to others. * The monthly fee is quite high, but it includes everything, although that might not be ideal for folks who still want to do their own cooking. * Guests may dine for $6 per meal, which is added to the monthly bill. * It is a large community. Mom has to walk quite a ways down hallways to get to elevator, dining room, mail box, front desk, laundry, storage unit. In her case the walking is good for her. * Activities include 30-minute daily chair exercises which are excellent.

I would recommend this community for memory care residents

Mom stayed here while she was recovering and needed some extra time before returning to her community. The staff were excellent. Mom did not like the food, however since she was in the memory care they did not offer a large variety of options. They offered a lot of activities and encouraged the residents to socialize. They have a central courtyard in this lockdown unit for the residents to get out and enjoy.
