Transforming Age

It's a pretty good experience so far. It's very clean. They have a Friday night meal, in the community kitchen and dining area, that doesn't always happen. It would be nice if that was a little more consistent. This was the best fit because it was just senior apartments that didn't have a lot of other services we didn't need. There aren't any care services or activities to really rate. The building is new and very nice. They have underground parking for an additional fee. They do have a continental breakfast every weekday morning with donuts and coffee where the residents can come and socialize and chat. It's very informal and relaxed.

I helped some acquaintances locate this community when they were searching, and so far they seem pleased with it. It is a clean, nice looking place, and the staff are very friendly. The activities provided could use a bit more variety, the community they came from had a lot more music related activities which they are missing here.

The Waterford was okay but because my mother-in-law was in a townhouse so she didn't feel that she was part of a community. She moved out to be closer to the family. The place itself, the townhouse, was extremely nice. It was a very nice two bedroom. They did have meals. Part of her deal was one meal a month. Since she was in the townhouse part and not in the assisted living she had to walk outside to get to the main building. That part wasn't very user friendly for elderly people. She had to walk outside to get her mail and to get to the meals and activities so I don't believe she participated in any activities while she was there.

My mother-in-law has a one bedroom apartment at The Rivers. The staff is great. The leasing manager was extremely patient thought the whole process of getting her moved in and all the residents are extremely friendly. She likes the food. She's only been there 2 months and I believe she is participating in a few of the activities. She's still adjusting because this is a very different transition for her. It's her first time living in an apartment. What really sold us was that there is a washer/dryer in the unit. They whole place is very nice and well maintained.

The reason that I didn't choose this AlmaVia was because of the bathtub. You had to step over to get into the shower and I just didn't want my mom to fall. I thought it was a beautiful place and the had beautiful grounds. It was just the bathtub that I didn't like. We ended up choosing the AlmaVia in Union City instead.

I thought t it was great but it was too big for my mom. Her Alzheimer's isn't so far advanced but I thought she would be overwhelmed here.

I put my partner on the waiting list here. It seemed nice and friendly. He had been in skilled nursing before and this was much more refreshing. It was fine as far as I could see but we found an opening at another place.

To far away from where we really want to be. Nice place though.

This place was nice. It was clean. Everything seemed on comparable to the others we were looking at. One of the others was more competetively priced though.

Very nice decor, has nursing add-ons want, companion suite, advanced care suite. Only includes dinner. Nurse to do eval on mom on Monday at St. Therese. Larger rooms, better kitchen in companion suite. Has happy hour, Sunday brunch. May get roommate with cat. Has dietician and nutritionist to monitor diet. Buddy system. Good activities calendar. Waiver accepted after 2-3 years private pay! Willing to make exception for mom. Pendent alarm. Bluestone medical. Phone and tv extra. Has van with wheelchair lift, has offsite activities. Closest to us of three.

I would say I chose Heathers Manor because they were incredibly friendly, there is a very strong sense of community there, and there is an all around nice feeling it gives off.

Really like the facilities and the neighborhood. The cost is probably not within our means.

Very nice facility. Clean. Friendly staff. Newer facility; only been lived in about two years. Very nice apartments (originally planned to be condos). Nice location. Lots of activities. Very knowledgeable staff. Remain in same apartment and add services as necessary.

Took tour-have a deposit check there.

The director could not have been more accomedating. The staff is cheery and the overall setting is professional yet homey. I like the idea that they have everything from living on your own to hospise care. The activities in the memory care unit are excellent and beeing a small group the staff really will get to know the residents. I believe that this would be a good place for my dad and possibly my mother in the townhouses.

Great place. Like the options!

Comfortable, friendly staff. Many services and social activities. Spendy but would not have to move again. Nursing and Md on site.

Nice, reminds me of a mini-version of Monarch Village. Still liked another facility more so in terms of pricing and available perks but will keep this as a backup place.

I toured Wednesday with Mom & Dad and The Waterford housing director, Brad. I like the people here very much. M&D loved this place. The one-level townhomes that are beautiful. Right on the campus, w/access to all amenities and activities of the "community". It's beautifully cared for inside & out.

I was quite interested in one of the units as it had great outdoor access and one had a great deal of closet storage. The director was extremely helpful and nice!! She did a great job of showing me the units.
