Evolve Senior Living

People should ask or know about the difference in care levels. This facility is mostly for those with high amounts of independence. Once my father worsened, there was limited floor space in the "extra care" wing. This was a cause for concern. Ultimately, it worked out, but needs for loved ones can change drastically and suddenly.

The staff is good they know your name right away they make you feel at home. The rooms are nice and clean. Got a full kitchen to where I want to cook my own food. I can do that thank you. Even the resident know my name when I first got there I felt like I was just part of the family

They offer a good variety of activities. Very pleased. They now also have various church services as well. I would recommend the facility. Nice community with very caring and friendly staff.

Beautiful place very nice staff but thin. It took too long to have questions answered once my freind was in Most of the issues we’re getting the right medications and finding the proper people to talk to. Setting up laundry service also took longer than it should have.

It is a very nice place and would recommend it to others. They set up lots of different activities for the residents.

I would recommend to others.

The overall experience, the cleanliness of the community have been good. The friendliness of the staff members are excellent. The activities that are offered and the value for cost has also been good. Based on the experience so far, we would recommend Novel Place Blue Springs to other families!

Anthology is a newer facility, beautiful inside and out. The shared spaces are well planned and generous. The apartments are nice with adequate space, some with balconies overlooking a fabulous courtyard. Staffing is sometimes an issue, and that ebbs and flows. Their Activities Director is clearly very invested in delivering a great experience for the residents. High quality and plentiful activities are Anthology's strongest attribute, making it easy for residents to be engaged, stimulated, and to meet others. The location is ideal, immediately adjacent to Blue Ash's Summit Park and good restaurants. Being somewhat new, there are still some kinks to work out, but I would recommend Anthology when comparing it to many of its peers.

I would recommend. You have the park outside with all of their activities. Restaurants within walking distance. The facility is trying very hard. They have the same issues as others with retaining good staff. They have monthly meeting to get input from their residents. My loved one chose this community, and because of the location, facility, and they offered Memory Care and Assisted Living.

Being a resident at Novel was like going on vacation. We had meals that was prepared for us by the best cooks. Our place was always clean and the staff was so polite. I can t say enough good things about them. Wonderful ! You can join in numerous activities or go on a day trip to different places in the city. I particularly enjoyed lunch out with the group. Personally I felt really safe living there. It is so close to everything. Grocery store , banks. Novel Place is a great place to live your next adventure.

Meals for independent residents is too bland, to soft, not appetizing. How many ways can you make hamburger? Ask the chef.

We toured with Novel Place and i liked this facility. The reason we did not choose them was because the location was just not the best fit for my loved one. It is in too busy of an area.

We picked this community because it was the staff, and the overall feel of the place. They offer activities, such as;-outside activities, fitness, and movies. They do well with the intraction and getting to know my loved. They can improve communication. Overall, I would recommend it to other families.

My loved one was there a short period of time. They were all very nice, but were often short staffed. They were all very helpful. The value for the money was average.

Beautiful - residents are friendly. Was designed to be beautiful - but NOT functional. Rooms for card games etc. way too small for full capacity. Lounges are too small for gatherings - but beautiful sitting area around fireplace - beautiful - but too small. Fireplace in courtyard - beautiful but not not enough seating - etc., etc. Seating in TV room - too small and chairs uncomfortable. Kitchen is in constant turmoil. Head chef has an ego that turns off any assistant chefs or help. Only recently has there been improvement with serving staff and that's because they moved [name removed] from the front desk to supervisor position for kitchen servers. She's a keeper!! Any written communication to director - never a response nor acknowledgement. Even with everything said - the residents make this a 4-star!

Atmosphere is very pleasant, maintenance is excellent. Those who have not previously lived in apartment style settings need to be mindful of their neighbors.

Would prefer dinner to begin at 5PM. Some meals are tasteless. Menu sounds great but prep is lacking.

Lovely place to live! Residents and staff are friendly

The facility is clean and staff is nice. They do provide housekeeping every other week and do a good job. Mom sometimes comments that the food is plain, but other than that no complaints.
