Five Star Senior Living

Getting away from the maintenance and monthly utilities bills of owning a home has given us a breath of fresh air to begin the next steps in our lives! Located in a central location of so many places to shop and medical care, FIVE STAR PREMIER includes a car service too! From the day we arrived to check out this residence, we have been treated as if we were very special! The management staff have gone out of their way to respond to every question we had, taking us from one apartment to another, making sure that the one WE selected met all our needs. They have accompanied us throughout the facility, introducing us to staff and a luxurious dining experience. The drivers were introducing us to the weekly shopping experiences, while giving guides on other local businesses and how to avoid certain traffic congestion. The Concierge' have gone way beyond expectations. I could go on all day singing their praises, but, the best advice is: MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TODAY! SEE FOR YOUR SELF!

I have lived at Jefferson Manor for 8 years. When I first started looking for senior living I toured most places in town but Jefferson Manor just felt right. I love how it feels homey and I love that it is a smaller community. All of the residents are friendly and the staff always goes above and beyond for the residents and their family members. The food is great and if you don't like what is on the menu you have so many other choices so you will never be hungry. Jefferson Manor is a great choice I'm happy to be able to call it HOME.

The staff and people here are wonderful. I can see the superiority of what they do is apparent. I often sit in the lobby area and I constantly see staff going above and beyond for the residents and their family members. I am so happy I chose Jefferson manor, I love it here and I love the staff.

They take good care of my dad.

After touring the manor we were very pleased with the amenities offered. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. This experience will help our family in so many ways and we are so excited for our parents! So far, our journey has been absolutely wonderful, especially the food!

We chose Stratford Court of Palm Harbor because of the location and outside appearance of the facility. The staff are prompt, courteous, professional and competent. I would recommend this facility to others.

My loved one was in hospice by the time that he got here, and I rate hospice a 10! All of the staff were caring, attentive and loving. I very much so recommend Morningside of Bellgrade to others.

I love Church Creek, it is a terrific new home for me. People are friendly and there are many daily activities to participate in at Cross Creek. My apartment meets all my needs and friends and family are in awe of Church Creek when they come to visit. My family is grateful for all the amenities and friendliness of the staff.

Absolutely great staff. Clean. Friendly, do recommend the facility.

The staff is extremely friendly. I have great communication with them concerning my mother. The housekeeping is above average. The meals are good and I would definitely recommend this facility to others.

Our family is very happy with the staff and services at New Seasons. They treat mom with great respect and meet her needs daily. Many activities are available and they encourage involvement. They let us know immediately if they have any concerns. Mom really enjoys her meals and the new friends she has met.

The Gardens of Scottsdale has proven to be a great choice to place our loved one. The memory care unit has an excellent staff to care the needs and even has gone beyond our expectations. Not fully knowing what to expect was a bit nerve racking at the beginning. The staff are all fully capable of making our loved one feel safe and cared for. The facility is well maintained and clean. I am very satisfied with our choice.

Fox Hollow is a wonderful place to call home. My brother was there for over 4 years. He had multiple health challenges . The staff were kind, hard-working and very competent. The Director has been there for many years and the rest of the staff have been there for long tenures as well. It is really a family atmosphere. There are many activities and fun excursions.

After researching several Assisted Living facilities in the area , Barrington Terrace proved to be the best new home for my 89 yr old mother. [name removed] and the administrative staff helped make this transition smooth and welcoming. The Barrington community of residents are very warm , caring and enjoy each other’s company. The activities and social environment are are awesome as the entire staff encourages all to participate. Nursing , healthcare and dining have met a high standard in the short time that my mother has been in residence. Our family and my mom are thankful that Barrington Terrace has assisted us in this transition of life.

I've toured several independent living places for myself and Five Star Premier Residences of Dallas is by far the best by leaps and bounds! The sales ladies, [name removed] and [name removed], are personable, very informative and I did not feel pushed to make a haste decision like some other places. And I'm so happy I accepted their invitation to lunch during my first visit because I had so many choices to choose from and the food is absolutely delicious! I've actually visited three times and each time I see residents having a good time and staff interacting with everyone. I already feel spoiled - when I drive up and my car is valet parked at no charge! I'm very much looking forward to the all-inclusive lifestyle WITHOUT the big buy-in!!

This was the only facility that I looked at - it is very close to where I live. Staff are great and very caring. Management level folks are good also. I highly recommend Morningside of Springfield.

I said nothing but tremendous things about [name removed] as a leader, a person, a counselor, and someone who always brings insight and comfort to my wife and I regarding my sister's residence at Rio Las Palmas.

So worth the 8 month wait for available unit. Staff is excellent (always kind and helpful). Wide range of activities, incuding exercise classes. Property is pretty, well maintained, clean and quiet. Bonus having Physical Therapy services on site.

My mom has only been there for about 6 or 7 weeks as of [date removed] so far, so good. We are still in transitioning period trying to get her to join in on activities, she has finally started ordering her dinners and she likes them. Anytime, I have needed anything, [name removed] and/or [name removed] have been on top of it. I appreciate the diligence And kindness. Mom did say she liked her cottage and was happy.

1) Ambassador Services - my mom was in IL and needed extra help through the Ambassador Services, like pushing her wheelchair to and from the dining room. She really bonded with one of the Ambassadors who helped her with ADL's like stand-by assistance for her showers. Caveat: My mom lived independently for 78+ years, so she had a learning curve that a schedule for AS meant you didn't get to tell them to come back later. 2) She got along well with most other residents but was quiet and liked crossword puzzles during meals. Sometimes, other residents made her feel awkward for not being more social, which led to her wanting to eat in her apartment. I didn't really let her do that unless she was sick because then she became even LESS social. 3) One of the best things for my mom's transition to a retirement community was the Sales & Marketing Director, [name removed], made sure to introduce her to other new and existing residents who she thought would be a good fit. She became fast friends with one other resident who was introduced to her on Day 1. One another note, my mom really didn't want to live in AL without a stove or W/D, so I was her supplemental caregiver by ensuring she took her medicine, got her doctor's appointments, and was generally happy & safe. It was a lot of work, but I didn't want my mom to feel isolated when we only lived 5 minutes away. Overall, I felt my mom and I had a lot of support from The Forum staff and community to make her IL situation work. In hindsight, she probably needed AL, and I was willing to sacrifice my time & energy to fill in the gaps.
