Nile Living

It's a nice clean place. My Mom says the food is very good.

If that’s the type of facility you need, I think it’s an excellent one. There is enough parking. It’s visually very appealing. It’s very clean, but I’m not the one that lives there. My loved one lives there. My loved one hadn’t said anything good or bad about the food.

we have been very impressed by their understanding of what elders need, and what makes them comfortable. the staff could be better coordinated, the food could be hotter, but the mood is outstanding

We moved our mom to Alpine Campus from another Emeritus venue last summer. She was becoming more unable to care for herself and had started wandering outside the venue. At Alpine Campus she has a lovely room, attentive staff and can roam all four neighborhoods no matter what time of day or night. She seems so much happier given the freedom she has and the higher staff to resident ration. Being able to get up during the night and see a friendly face and have a cup of coffee has really diminished her anxiety and she is more relaxed and comfortable.

Everyone was very friendly and it looked clean and inviting. However, for respite care, the minimum stay of 14 days does not work for my needs.

It was very nice, but my mom felt that it was a little too elegant for her. We didn't get to see the Woodside, only Briarwood. They said that the Woodside is a little less extravagant. Mostly it is very expensive. The money was a huge factor. She is in assisted living, but she is not even at care level one. She would have had to pay extra even though she wouldn't have been receiving care.

That was a beautiful place! The views were just breathtaking of the hills and the river and the city. The reason I didn't move in to that one is because there was no kitchen in the unit. You had to eat every meal in the dining room and there was no option on that. Sometimes you just want to make a little breakfast or snack or something. They had two burners and a mini fridge but I don't know what you could do with that.

I picked Powell Valley mainly because it has the assisted living and memory care and they accept Medicaid. Those are two big pluses. They have been okay. They haven't been spectacular on the care. My mom is 100% dementia so they first went in to the assisted living and we just moved her to memory care, splitting my parents up. It was very discouraging for us to do that and we're still in the process of making sure that was the right move. In the assisted living there is not a lot of one on one care which I guess that was my fault for not looking into that before hand. Besides that it's been okay. I feel the assisted living part is really clean. I'm not really happy with the cleanliness of the memory care part yet. It's a little bit older and not as updated as the assisted living. I really do like the activities in the memory care. They're trying to get them to be involved.

This was a much larger community and they couldn't meet my mother's care needs. They're absolutely great for active seniors because they have all kind sorts of activities. They have a beautiful, big dining room if you feel up to that and then they also have a dining room on each of the three care floors. There is lots that is wonderful about them but once my mother needed more care they really couldn't handle it.

Extremely friendly and caring staff, first name basis for all residents. I was very impressed with the staff. Very comfortable, modern, clean. Good hands on care. Our only problem was in limiting my Dad's salt intake, I was told the food was not salty. Never succeeded in getting a special low salt diet set up for him during his one month respite stay.

I can't speak to the care services because my mom is not getting any. My mom likes the food better than the place she was in in Idaho. I think they're prices are a little high. It's one of the most expensive places in town so I think they could do better on the price. I worked at a facility for 3 years and they offered about the same things and were half the price of Emeritus at Springfield Campus. They have a lot of activities over at what they call The Meadows which is a block away. I'm not sure how they get away with that. I looked on the board today and out of 8 of 9 activities easily half of them were at the meadows.

The director called 8/9; sm 1BR 2750/mo; lg 1BR 2890/mo. Sm adv=only 1 neighbor, more sunlight b/c on corner. Met w/the director...nice facility, indep. locally owned, clean/no odors. Location=walking distance. Incl. wkly hskp & linens washed, W/D avail on ea flr, 3 meals/day+snacks. Looked at 108 (1BR for 2890), 525 sqft. Small patio (ground flr), garden area & walking path just outside back door, can hang pics&shelves/install rolling shelves in cabinets, paint w/approval. Recently remodeled so cabinets newer, tile floor in kitchen area. Walk-in shower.

Lovely--concidering

Calaroga Trc. Looks great. Will look into pricing. Readings/authors. Politically active.

I'll take Mom here for lunch and let her see the facility and see what she thinks. It also doesn't have much outdoor walking opportunities.

Also liked this home. Have the same problem with moving here also, i.e., no furniture.

This also is a nice place and more reasonable.

Loved this one. The only 2 drawbacks were the studio was extremely small (the smallest I've seen yet) and it's a little farther out than I'd like.

We had to do a virtual tour with Powell Valley which was difficult because I was not going to place my mom somewhere without stepping into the facility. There was nothing negative about it at all, it just was not going to be the right fit for us.

This community was second on our list. The staff we met were nice and the community was clean. They did offer activities for the residents. This community was just a little higher priced than what we were looking for.
