Priority Life Care

I do think that their memory care area is very small, so it does make it hard for new people to interact with other residents because they are not all on the same level of care.

We chose Las Palmas because of the proximity to my house, the space that the cottages provided, and the location is very convenient and close to a lot of places with a pretty surrounding area. The sales person was the nicest and most attentive out of the places that we looked into. She was warm and friendly from the second that we walked in here. The food is not good at all, the variety on the menu is not very healthy. They serve things like hot dogs, fries, sandwiches, etc. It would be better if they provided healthier options for the residents. They have a lot of options for activities available and they have a swimming pool which is very nice. I would recommend to others looking with the caveat about the food.

My loved one says it's "okay," and feels like some of the services are not as readily available as advertised. But you can access those services by contacting the appropriate person. She seems to have found her way around really well. She has no complaints about cleanliness. They have someone available to provide transportation at an extra cost if you need it, and she's figured out how to order food from Publix. There's been some staff turnover. They had a really good handyman who had some health issues and had to leave, and they haven't found a replacement for the manger either. They haven't been having some of the activities because they're short-staffed. She really liked the exercise class when they were offering it. My loved one likes the breakfasts, but overall thinks they have too many soft, starchy foods and not enough fresh foods. She's sent me pictures of her living quarters, and the apartments are like studio apartments. You walk in and there's a sink and a refrigerator and cabinets along one side, and then areas for sleeping and living , and a little balcony. She has a bathroom and a closet as well. It's as much as she needs. For just her, she doesn't need anything more than that. And I think she's doing fine and has settled in very well.

I would suggest placing your loved one here. This seems to be more hospitable here than some other communities. The staff communication is good with the families.

Food is generally good and tasty, good variety, no complaints. I have complained in the past about food preparation. The cook has responded favorably. the general manager [name removed] is doing a very good job. Friendly, fits in well with the renters and is very sincere. I Am 98 years of age.

We chose Elmcroft of York because it was recommended to my brother. He chose Elmcroft because he tried the food and thought it was good so he didn't look anywhere else. The room sizes here were adequate for his needs. I would want others to know when looking into the facility that we had an issue with them because they did not evaluate him correctly, they could not care for him adequately and I think he needed nursing instead of assisted living. They should not have taken him in the first place.

There seem t be great activities ad short offsite trips for lunch or shopping. Facility is rather large an you don't see many residents about other than at the dining room. I don't think this would be the place for a gregarious person, as I seems very quiet. My Moth has only been thee for several weeks, so our exposure is limited. Mom say the staff is very friendly and nice, but the residents are not as friendly. Hopefully she just needs more time to assimilate.

I love the room that we picked out for mom. She is very comfortable. The patio is a wonderful extra for her and the building itself is quite lovely. The level of activity is disappointing...there are very few activities that encourage any of the occupants to move around. Many of the activities are posted in the monthly news but never actually come to pass. Many of the activities are only board games and table games. The dining experience for each meal is very long and often mom leaves without eating because the food is not tasty. I often supplement her meals.

When we were looking for a suitable place for our loved one, we were concerned with cost, care, access to transportation, and a welcoming environment. Independent Court Hyattsville did the best job of meeting those criteria. Budget concerns were a big factor--Independence Court is less costly than most we looked at that had the needed services. The facility is big enough to handle the medical care issues we were concerned about. The food is good. The activities are easily adequate--enough to keep people socialized and out of their rooms if they desire. Metro Access is available, and the facility is close to a dialysis center--critical in our case. The housekeeping in the room is a little disappointing, as is the fact that a favorite personal blanket and some linens have disappeared after being taken to the laundry. Overall, we think this was a good choice for our needs.

Marion Woods is the perfect place for my mom. She is relieved of hone ownership and all that goes with that. She now has more friends and activities to keep her busy. She loves the food and not having to cook anymore. Our family loves knowing she is in a safe place where the staff makes the effort to know and care for all the residents.

Beautiful place for love ones . They have a team that is caring and friendly. They are there to answer any questions or concerns you might have. The daily activities are a MUST for their residents. They enjoy quality time on a daily basis. The staff is always visible when I visit.

The residents here, for the most part, are pretty out of it. This is not a good place for a thriving senior citizen looking for lots of interaction, conversation and activities. However, it is the right place for my mom. she has advancing dementia and needs a lot of care. The amount of care provided is surprising. She needs to be fed her meals and cannot walk any longer, so she also needs to be changed. The care is good. There is not one single staff person who is mean or rude. Everyone is kind and helpful. I feel they really care about my mother and I believe she is in good hands.

This is a beautiful community, and the staff did a great job showing me around and answering all my questions. There were lots of amenities for the residents here but I knew that it was not going to be a good fit for my mother as she would be better in a more home-like atmosphere and a much small community. I would definitely recommend coming on a tour here.

Everything that the community has done for my dad has been good so far.

This community seemed clean when we visited. The people we met were nice. This community does offer a gorgeous view. The community seems dated and compartmentalized. The community did not feel very open and bright.

I did not get to take the tour of this community, but I did get to talk to some of the people. The community was nice and the lady was nice and helpful. We just did not like the distance and thought that it was a larger community.

I found the people who care for those in residence to be friendly and caring. Although I find the monthly cost to be higher than anticipated, I know my loved one is being taken care of.

The staff at this community were very nice. The director was outstanding, she took me around for the tour and shows me the building and answered all of my questions. They are very aware of the patient's needs. The facility was sterile, the walls were still grey without many decorations. The layout was very confusing. There were a lot of doors which was confusing. All of the resident's room doors were closed. The dining room and activity room were one.

This is a pretty nicely maintained facility. Rooms are very nice. My mom is in a friendship suite (2 beds in the room) and it is similar to a large studio apartment. Carpet was new and paint was fresh when mom moved in. My mom is in the memory care unit, so here's some things I wish I would have asked up front: How often does mom get a bath? A little disappointed when I learned it is only 2x per week. What about help using bathroom? We visited a few days after mom moved in only to find she was walking around in soiled underwear. She now wears Depends but we have had to remind the staff several times that she needs help cleaning herself after using the restroom. Every time we go, her diaper is dirty. Activities? I'm sure there are activities but anytime I go, all I see are a bunch of people walking around the halls aimlessly. That said, mom loves it because there are people to talk to and more activity than when she was locked in her house all by herself. Overall, decent facility but I think they are missing on a couple important details of senior care.

The tour was really good. We met with the director and they were nice. The community seemed clean. They had an event going on and there were some snacks available, They were a little more expensive than the community we chose.
