Five Star Senior Living

This is a top-notch facility, with top-notch employees. It is obvious that extra effort is given to hiring only the most caring and competent staff. Everyone's attitude is to give the best service to the residents and their families. I encountered no instances of "attitude" problems at all. Care givers in the Bridge to Recovery Program are remarkably patient, and understanding of the very specialized care needed for dementia patients. My mother was so blessed to live here, and I was very blessed to be a part of the "family" there.

I think things have gone very well at Five Star! My loved one is really enjoying the more active, independent feel the community has, and has settled in very well! The staff here are very friendly and helpful, and when we contacted their medical support service to get help finding a doctor they had someone at the door within an hour! We're very pleased with Five Star, and would highly recommend them!

Things have gone very well so far at The Forum at Brookside. The facility itself is well kept and clean, and I think they've done a great job working with my loved one. The staff have been very patient and kind, and really dedicated to making sure she gets settled in and comfortable.

The staff and everyone there are so helpful and friendly they are definitely helping to make my mother's transition as easy as possible. They have been this way since our first visit and it is so appreciated! I just wish we could find bridge players.

Summit Place of Southpark is a great community. The staff are nice and friendly. The place is up to date and always clean. If I have a concern with my loved one their then I can go the the director or nurse and they reassure or help figure out the problem which is awesome.

I took my mom to Oak Woods Manor for a Open House in March, we took a tour and we were very happy. Out of 4 places we went to in the month of March we were the most pleased with Oak Woods. The Lunch was good, entertainment fun and the residents were so friendly.

My brother just signed a year lease we are very pleased with Morningside. Everything is going great so far. It's clean and the staff is friendly. The food is good, I don't have any complaints so far. It's working out well, and I would rate them very highly.

This was a very nice looking community. The facility itself was well kept and clean, and the staff were all very friendly and professional. It is a safe and caring environment for my mother in law and feel it is better than her previous residence.

My father has been living at the Palms at Lake Spivey for two months and he seems very content. He was agitated initially with the idea of moving to an assisted living facility but made the adjustment almost immediately. The facility is very clean and the staff is nice and very professional. My father is really happy with the meals. We are extremely happy with our selection of The Palms at Lake Spivey.

The staff was really nice and the director was good about the price and keeping it in our budget on what we wanted to spend. The activities was kind of childish and think it should be something else than what they played.

We're very pleased with how things have turned out with Washington Township Senior Living! The facility itself is nicely decorated and always clean, it feels like a 5 star hotel as opposed to a senior facility! The staff is very attentive and friendly, and they take great care of the residents. My folks are really enjoying themselves here!

This community is very beautiful. Its an old mansion that was taken care of by monks, that is how it got its name. It has been modified, the bathrooms have all been upgraded. The rooms had an older feel, however they have been kept up on. Its more on the ritzy side, high priced, but very beautiful. The grounds were beautiful. They had a lot of good activities. They place felt like you could actually get lost in it. They had elevators here and there. I wouldn't actually put my family here, but it is a absolutely beautiful community.

My mother was a resident of the assisted living at Heartfields for about six months. The food and especially the cookies were absolutely wonderful. The staff treated my mother like an old friend instead of a patient and worked very closely with our family to ensure the best care for my mother. Unfortunately, my mother’s dementia progressed to the point of requiring more specialized care. Sadly, the memory clinic at Heartfields did not have any openings at the time. The staff worked very hard to help us transition to another facility and have made a point of visiting her in her new home. We are grateful for their efforts.

One thing they have done that has been very very nice is that the first day my mother-in-law was there all the department heads stopped by to meet her personally. They know and greet her by name. It has been really very good. Her condition greatly improved during her stay there at Mt. Arlington Senior Living and I would highly recommend them.

We have been very pleased with my mom's adjustment to a new living environment. The staff have worked very hard to work with the needs of my mom. She has started to adjust and feels like this is were she lives. Its a very tough job for those who support these patients and I feel that maybe more staff might help all involved. I am very happy that my mom feels safe and getting the support she needs. All I want is the best for her and things are so far working out great.

My mother was a resident of the Forum at Memorial Woods for 25 years. She was actually the first resident there. She moved there primarily because of the location but also it appealed to her that there were many levels of care. She moved into the Independent Living in 1990 and lived there until 2013. At that time she moved into the Assisted Living. The director of the facility, Madeleine was amazing. She gave me her cell phone number and took care of any concerns I had. The Assisted Living facility was a lovely place. However, I thought it was a little bit too isolated for my mom. She needed more interaction. That was totally my mistake for not encouraging her to move when she had a little bit more independence. I believe if she had moved there a couple of years earlier she would have been able to get connected easier with the other residents and staff. Her stay at the Assisted Living facility was only for 6 months. Madeleine called a Family meeting and explained to us that my mom needed more care than was offered at the Assisted Living facility. I reluctantly moved her to the 4th Floor of the Memory Care unit. Please note it is always going to be a difficult transition and I HATED leaving Madeline. But she assured me that the Director of the Memory Care would take care of my mom just as well. Her name is Liz and she did not disappoint. Again, she gave me her cell phone and was available to me for any questions or concerns. If you are reading this, you already know that taking care of a loved one and making decisions about care and living arrangements is extremely difficult. However, the ratio in the Memory Care unit is very small and the doors to the rooms are left open (unless the resident prefers them to be closed) At this stage in my mother’s life this was very comforting because she was becoming lonely and afraid. In this unit she had many of the staff members coming and going and staying with her. Please know, I am a little high maintenance, ask many questions, and expect high quality care. My mother was almost completely blind the last years of her life. The director, Liz was extremely kind-hearted, patient, and made sure my mother was always comfortable in her new home. I can honestly say my mom’s stay at The Forum for the entire 25 years was very pleasant. When she could no longer take care of herself, the staff always kept her room clean and her personal hygiene was immaculate. Also, the staff would always encourage my mom to take part in the activities. I would recommend the Forum without hesitation – especially if Madeline and Liz are the Directors.

The Morningside is an excellent community. The atmosphere is very pleasant and the staff on hand are very wonderful. They appeared to be very attentive to the residents, as none of the residents appeared to be unattended, and all seemed very happy. The rooms that we saw all looked very nice and the staff that we talked to were all very educated on the community.

I like the cleanliness, the dining area, the personalization. They do call you if anything out of the ordinary happens. The food was great. It's a very nice community with a very homey feeling. The place is very clean, and all the staff there is incredibly friendly.

My mom has only been at The Devon Senior Living a short time. However, so far I am very happy with her care, the friendliness of the staff and of the other residents.

My mom is adjusting very well and the people that work with my parents go out of there way to make sure to reach out to me. The food is excellent and the menu is fantastic. They have a food committee that also lives that makes the decision. Highly recommend!
