Five Star Senior Living

We are happy with them so far. My only comment would be if your loved one is accustomed to dining at a particular hour, and doesn't want to go down at mealtime, they will wait and bring it up after the rest of the meal, which is not something I even thought to ask about, and she does sometimes say that when she gets it it's cold. It's still hasn't been very long, so I'm not sure how smooth the billing will be yet. We like the location and the quality of the place.

My aunt really loves it at The Gardens of Virginia Beach! I have not seen the place personally myself yet, but her comments about it have all been very good. They have a lot of good activities that she likes to engage in, and the staff there is all very friendly. She is very happy there.

We toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. I thought Dogwood Forest seemed like a very nice place, overall. The facility was clean and well kept, and the staff were friendly. The residents all seemed friendly and active, as well.

Both my parents are living there; my dad had a stroke recently and can't speak. I keep asking them to make sure he has a buddy to someone to take him to the activities and it doesn't seem to be happening. The staff is always nice though, they try and make things right.

It seems like a very caring place. The staff is very caring. Everybody is very friendly. The place is clean. They try to do a lot for their residents. So far we are very pleased. The value is pretty good. The care services are going good so far. Everything has been going really good. It's a nice place. I can't rate the activities because my loved one hasn't taken advantage of them yet. It is not applicable.

It's been good so far. I have been pretty happy with them. From what I have seen the food seems to be pretty good. I don't have any major complaints or things that need to be improved.

Our experience with Legacy of Anderson has been a good one so far, I'd give them high marks across the board. The people here are friendly, and the facility is well kept and clean. There is always room for improvement though! As an example, I think they could stand to clean the windows a little more frequently.

Staff were friendly. Assistance offered as much or as little as needed. Clean and spacious.

Overall our experience with Savannah Square has been a good one. It is a nice looking, clean place, and the people here are friendly. My only issue is that we ran into some issues that caused a bit of a delay getting my loved one moved in.

The Wellstead of Rogers is a nice community. They are willing to work with you. I think overall the staff is very good. This is a very clean and well kept facility. I would recommend this community if your in the Rogers, MN area.

So far it has been good. It took a while for my mother to transition. This is a very nice community. I rated all of the categories 5 except for the activities because If its a dementia patient they are not allowed outside without supervision. That was important for my mother because she likes being outside in the sunshine. Other than that this is a good community. It is very clean and the staff is so friendly.

I think they are doing pretty good. There have been a few little things that have come up, but so far we haven't had any major complaints. So far things are working out.

Overall our experience with Brandon Woods has been a good one. It is a nice looking place, and they do a good job keeping everything clean and well kept. The staff are friendly, and take good care of the residents.

Very nice administrators offered us great lunch. And secretaries very friendly. If it weren't for Rt. 70 and all the noisy traffic being in front of bldg. I'd have chosen this place.

Riverwalk Commons is a great facility. Take care of my dad and make him feel like home. We wasnt to sure at first but now wouldnt have chosen another place. It is a clean environment and is kept that way.

Overall I think they do a good job at Pueblo Norte Senior Living! The staff is friendly and professional, and they keep the facility looking well kept and clean. Really my only concern is that on Sundays they do not offer breakfast or dinner, which makes it hard for my loved one who does not cook at all at this point.

The only problem is there is a lack of coordination when a person moves they drop the ball. Mom keeps getting some else's mail or not gets her mail and had to wait for 3 weeks to get mom's storage box. Admin needs to get better coordinated for the patients. The dining staff are wonderful, welcome her call her by name.

This was the best atmosphere of them all.

Mt Arlington is a lovely assisted living facility. The overall staff are friendly and the facility kept very clean and decorated beautifully. The Bridge to Rediscovery Unit (aka-dementia unit) however, needs some improvement in communication with staff and family members. These residents have no one to communicate for them. If questions are asked regarding their activities or care, you do not always get an answer. As this is not a nursing home, there is no documentation as to how their day went, how they slept, if showered etc. We are asked to question the nurse about all these things. As she visits these residents she is aware of their medical needs but isn't there all day to know all these answers. As you must be an advocate for an ill parent or loved one, you need to question things. Unfortunately, you feel certain nursing staff(director) trying to avoid you and will not even acknowledge you. This is disappointing, but overall they are friendly and try hard to accommodate you. The staff does their best on a floor that I'm sure can be very difficult. Activities on this floor, again, while difficult, need extra hands to assist. Perhaps trying to reach out to nearby towns, schools,churches etc for volunteers to assist with crafts, games etc.

My mom moved in almost exactly a month ago and it was not an easy transition even though she chose where she wanted to go. With help from caregivers and other staff, she is slowly getting accustomed to her new life. I hope to be able to get her engaged in activities before long, but she is setting the pace. The staff is very kind and helpful, but some things are not done when promised and need to followed up on. The facility itself is very nice and well maintained for an older establishment.
