Senior Lifestyle - Main

We have found staff to be available, helpful and responsive. We are very pleased with both the staff and the facilities. I cannot stress enough how comforting it has been, and is, to have[name removed] in such a wonderful facility run be such competent and attentive staff.

We chose this facility because of the friendly and caring staff to their residents. Staff are always friendly and always looking out for your family member. You can feel safe by having your family member at Addington Place.

I believe that the hands on staff treated the residents with immense caring. I never saw one that was impatient or mean and I was there a lot.

We chose The Woodmark Uptown because the room was larger than the other and the staff were very friendly. For such a nice facility and the price... you would think they could at least get the elevators repaired in a decent amount of time. 2 - 3 weeks for repair is ridiculous.

[name removed] and [name removed] are very happy. They love the activities. They welcome everyone and we like the inclusiveness. We would most definitely recommend this community to other families and we have. Unfortunately, the friend decided they could not give up their current space.

It feels like a home...not like a facility, the staff are very receptive and helpful and stay in communication, if there is ever an issue they find a way to resolve it and are very caring towards the residents. Only thing to improve on: no more cream of carrot soup :)

We are very happy here. Also, we can still get around for ourselves. Answers are based on that. Apartments are large with large walking closets, washer and dryer in apartment, apartment cleaning full kitchen. Diner meals and more. One other big item for us is the indoor parking. They are very responsive to my needs. Food is very good.

The staff is friendly. My mother is very happy with their attentiveness. When I visited my mother, the first few weeks in January the staff was excellent. They're very friendly. They came and reminded her when it was dinner time or when something was going on. The staff there is wonderful facilities are kept very clean and neat. I love the fact that there is a little garden area that's in the center portion of the building where people can go and work the garden or just sit in the garden and enjoy love the chairs out front mother uses them quite often. She'll go out and walk around the Circular driveway and sit and rest in the chairs after her walk.

Everyone has done their best to help my mom feel comfortable in her new place. She has only been there for 2 weeks, but has already met many new friends. She has not done many activities yet, but there is something for everyone each week with a variety activities scheduled daily.

When my mother passed away halfway through the billing cycle, we got a refund for the remainder of the time, very fair place to do business with. Every one of my family members who went to visit my mother, said how nice the place was how cordial everyone was how professional the employees were. Good food, great employees, clean room, clean building. My mother was always showered, teeth brushed, hair combed, dressed ready for the day. Most of the assisted-living facilities I've been in in my lifetime. I've always smelled like urine. This place did not because they take care of the people

I think it's a very sweet place just understaffed like most places. I hear food is the biggest complaint of residents. I love the size for my husband. The regular workers are great. It's a very friendly and caring place. Everyone knows each other. I think it would be perfect if the food was better and had more workers. Seems to be a turnover of workers. It's hard work and some just don't stay long. It was the best place I looked at for the price. Others were out the roof.

This place is beautiful and well maintained. They bend over backwards to be sure you are satisfied. Variety of activities. Visits all the grocery stores in the area. Heated swimming pool. Wonderful deck looking over the marina. Come join a great place to live.

I've been here for almost 6 months and love it. Wish I'd moved here sooner. It is very clean. Everyone has been extremely friendly from the staff to the residents. They make you feel welcome. This is independent living - If you become in need of care you need to hire outside caregivers. The staff is/are extremely knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. The food is good, presented nicely & healthy. They have just replaced our previous activities director. Let's give her a chance. From my point of view it's darn good. I did a comparison before moving here on what it cost me to live on my own. (Owed a new single wide manufactured home with a mortgage and lot rent etc.) and the monthly rent here. Much less here.

I am enjoying my life at The Beakers. The food is good, although sometimes food seems to be high in fat, salt and carbs. But, I understand that cooking for so many people with different tastes is difficult. The population is diverse, which is good. The number of activities, bus trips, and entertainment is good. Also, the location is excellent. My view of and access to Lake Michigan is wonderful.

Needs to be an adjustment there. Continental breakfast 6 days a week is boring. However, I would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far!

Addington Place was truly a home away from home for my mom. The atmosphere is light and airy compared to other facilities we looked at the staff seems to work really well with each other and because of that it transferred down to the care of its residents. Although my mom was unable to participate in the daily activities, I know that she would have thoroughly enjoyed them if she could. I would highly recommend Addington Place to anyone seeking a special place for their loved one.

Staff is friendly and have good communication between nurses and my husband and I. The room size is perfect for my mother in law. The facility is bringing on more activities than they had when she moved there in the fall. They have things like sip and paint/ice cream parties/trivia parties and things like that.

5 for everything. My mom is there for a little over 2 weeks and she is very happy with everything. Thank you for your assistance and [name removed] was outstanding. She gave me sound advice that helped us to make the decision.

I feel like I have joined a new family! The staff are great and work hard to provide activities and opportunities for residents to get to know each other. The pool is definitely a great exercise option and the outing are well planned and great for those who no longer drive. I couldn't be more pleased with my choice. I feel I was well guided by A Place for Mom and I am very happy that I made the move.

The entire staff was immediately welcoming and quickly made a difference for my dad. He was worried about the transition and they were able to put him at ease with grace and humor.
