Priority Life Care

This a very big lovely community. It is like a resort style community. They keep the community very well-kept, it looks beautiful. This is more of Independent living. I would say this community would be good for a younger senior, but if you need some care this is not the place. They charge extra for any care your loved one would need. It wasn't the community for my friend.

My only complaint is that there was no initiative to introduce my mother to the other residents. She was left on her own to meet people.

Brentwood is a very nice facility. It is clean and nicely decorated. The working staff are friendly, caring and seem to treat the residents verty well. My only concern was the original intake process. The information we gave didn't seem to be transferred down to the ward. We told the director that we would furnish the medications for our Mom; however, the nurse ended up ordering them from a local pharmacy which cost several hundred dollars. If we ordered them through her insurance, it would have cost her nothing. We asked the staff not to provide her with the services of the beautician, yet, she was taken twice. We even told the beautician not to servicer her, and she did. She has a beautician whom she has seen for years. Her hair was cut anyway. There just seems to be a disconnect between the administration and the line staff that is concerning. We went to the director on several occasions over care issues;, but it didn't seem to help. We seemed to jump through hoops to get her there, tryng to find documents that we didn't need in the first place. but were told that we needed them.. Other than this, my mother likes it there. It is better than the situation she came from. We like having her there as she gets good care. It just could have been a bit smoother at the point of intake and follow through.

There seems to be lots of activities here, which was one of the main things that we were looking for. Dad loves it here and if he is happy, we are happy. Great place. Very friendly, genuine and professional.

Best in the area for the money.

We checked here when we were looking for options. It was a nice place, but they didn't seem to really have an appropriate area for my loved one. They have an assisted living, and a memory care. My loved one is a little past just assisted living, but not ready for full on memory care either. This just wasn't the best fit for us.

Overall they do a good job at Independence Court of Hyattsville, but there have been a few situations I think they could have handled better. The facility and the decor here are a bit worn and outdated. They are in the middle of some renovations, but they are going about them in a way that inconveniences the residents. As an example, I have seen them pulling down wallpaper in a common area while the residents were trying to watch TV. I also think they feel a bit understaffed at night, there are times when I have come to visit later in the evening and there hasn't been anyone at the reception desk.

The bathroom toliet was not kept clean. The nurse was not schooled in the proper way to inject the Lantus and Byetta, which should be in the belly not the arm. It was injected in the left arm amd resulted in a black and blue bruise which he still has.

My dad was only there for 17 days before he passed away. The staff at Brentwood were very friendly and took care of dad and made him as comfortable as possible during his stay. The security on the memory care floor was awesome and safety wasn't an issue. The staff looked in on dad very often dad really liked the food.

Mama was here for about six weeks. She enjoyed it very much at first, but became bored later. The activities were heavily weighted toward church stuff, which my mother does not find stimulating. She spoke well of some of the word games that were occasionally played in the common rooms. I think she would have remained happy if the weather had allowed her to spend time outside. Mama's always been a nature girl. She doesn't like anyplace where she has to stay indoors. The staff were great. We'll probably try it again.

So far Atria Highland Crossings is meeting my elderly mother's needs most importantly reasonably priced. Older facility but comfortable.

The building and grounds are attractive and well maintained. The apartments are quiet and well kept. Cable television is included in the rent. The food is good and plentiful, but not very interesting and lacking in variety. It is a friendly place. Lots of very nice people live here. There is a wine and cheese evening, regular movie nights, and some gaming opportunities like bingo and cards, but not much in the way of good entertainment coming in from the outside. The on-site health services are minimal, but this is "independent living," not "assisted living." The idea is leisurely retirement living for people who are still relatively healthy. In sum, a good choice for those in Palm Coast, but the food and entertainment would need to be improved to truly get your money's worth.

I think it's a nice assisted living facility for someone a little younger. Offers a lot of privacy. They have a lot of activities and the privacy.

As far as the building is concerned and the areas here, living areas and so forth, that's alright. The biggest complaint, or concern that anyone you'll talk to her (a resident) will say is their food is not the best. There are times when they make an excellent meal, othertimes, its a long way from being excellent. I suppose you can take that with a grain of salt because there's a lot of people here, its like the army, there was always someone griping about the food. The activities seem to be okay, there's quite a bit of activity going and they're well planned. It's all women, older women, course that's natural with the way were living now, the women are always outnumbering the men so if the person thats thinking about moving in here is a woman I think she would have an easier time than the men, she would have a lot of companions and people to talk to.

I think some of these are harsh, the first 4 months were not as bad as now....food is really bad and the administration says it will get better, but it doesn't.....the cook just doesn't know how to cook. There is no one here at night, and we are told that 24-7 is not going to happen. We love our apartment, but both the outside and inside are in poor condition. Renovations are supposed to start around [date removed], but we have been told that for months....only time will tell.

The management is really kind and helpful, but the facilities need updating, and there isn't enough staff in the memory care unit.

Clean well staffed but after love one passes they are Cherry ?? picking sanitary products and had my mothers belongings at front door stacked by front door desk not even passed 36 hours whe I distinctly told director wound be moved out in 2 days . REALLY ?

I'm a nurse , so I may be more critical, the in house nursing was not very good , home health nurses were good , aides as everywhere not nearly enough, saw a lot residents heavy care , hoyer lifts , atmosphere was good , clean , meals very good.

The people are very nice. They really try their best to keep all residents happy and engaged.

They do nothing for a person who is ill. What to expect when you are sick and unable to walk care for you or your spouse. Move again. Owner not here contacted by email or phone. Information does not get to them in a timely manner. It is a fine place for couple that are healthy and just to live be cared for house keeping and meals.
