161 Management Group

With one year under our belt with a family member living at this community, we could not be more pleased. Dad is happy, feels more at home than he did in his own home, and has enjoyed meeting new friends and becoming far more active. He's back eating 3 meals a day and enjoys everyone of them...maybe too much! Seeing our father actviely participating in his life is exactly what we all needed. The staff at the Grand really went out of their way to make him feel welcome, and a year later its as though they are his family as much as we are! His new friends are filling his life and he looks so much better than he did when he moved in. He loves his apartment, although he's not in it much due to staying busy with friends. In reading some of the negative reviews, all of us in our family wonder if its the same place we know?! They feel more like personal agendas than true experiences and one of them reads like a disgruntled employee. All we can say is that we are pleased, our father is happier than he has been since mom died, and we no longer worry about his well being or his days being empty. We could not trust the staff any more, they all seem to be capable and committed, and they speak highly of the owners. What's not to love?! Thank you Albuquerque Grand! Forget the naysayers. From our experience you're all doing the right things for the right reasons and we appreciate it. More importantly - our Dad does!!!

I want to thank all the staff for graciously caring for my husband and myself. I know my husband can be a pain sometimes but he loves everyone of you. I am glad I have someone there for the days I am truly dead beat tired. I know I can rely on you all to care for him when I just need to go sit in the sun on the patio. It keeps me at ease knowing the cooking, cleaning and hardships of caring for a home is no longer on my shoulders. It's funny to say it this way but as a child I always wanted to know what it was like to have a live in maid. Living here is helping to fulfill that childhood dream. I have all these amazing workers here to help with all my daily home and medical needs. Thank you again

They have great staff at this place. My mom lives on the east side in the independent part of the building but lately she has needed help with her medication. When she needed this service, Tony got the staff to start immediately. It was an amazing weight off our shoulders. I have noticed a big positive change in her mental state since this has happened. I am very thankful for all of them. Good Job everyone

This was a great place for my mom to call home for a year and a half. She was safe and comfortable and made many friends. My mom had All Life Solution services provided and the nurses who managed the program did a wonderful job. Thank you!! There were many caretakers and staff who took time to make my mom feel special and cared for. Another thank you!! My mom has since moved in with my sister, but we will forever be grateful for the time she had at Independence Village.

The reason why I will recommend independence village is because the residents are very friendly easy to communicate to, also with the staff , the cleanliness, and activities they have with the residents

Facility is well maintained. Friendly and helpful staff. Environment is warm and welcoming!

Prior to moving to Albuquerque Grand I walked or relied on public transportation to get around. As I got older it became more difficult for me to get to the store or laundry mat. Since moving to Albuquerque Grand my life is much easier. As all meals are provided and I no longer need to shop for groceries and the washer/dryer is right down the hall. The weekly housekeeping and lien service is also very helpful. The grand has two nice enclose courtyard which means I can get fresh air and sunshine without leaving the complex. Staff at the Grand are very nice and plan numerous of activities (games, walks, parties, c community outings, movie nights) allowing me to utilize more than I could if I lived alone. Finally monthly rent at Albuquerque Grand is less than other senior living facilities in town. If you are looking for a comfortable senior living facility at a reasonable price you should consider the Albuquerque Grand.

My room is very comfortable, the food is very good. The staff is very efficient. Housekeeping does a good job- just wish they would do laundry.

I like it here- Kind staff - Food ok best at minimum Consistency everywhere is the key

People are friendly 3 meals a day are provided A pleasant place to live Management listens to our concerns No nurse on hand which I would like

I love the community and location. I think my father is adjusting to the facilities and think there are some concerns for increased quality of the food., just an FYI (Constructive)!

Nothing can be perfect. No facility can be 100% perfect.

I think it's a great place. they're going out of their way to try to accommodate everybody.

It's not a bad place. Need more staff like aides.

I'm very happy here, but there is large employee turnover. Love the new cook. He is a winner. The courtyard is very impressive. Some people here need more help and may not be a good fit for Independence Village and would consider a full time nurse or doctor on site 24 hours.

I've been here a little over 6 years, because of my work with the church. I don't get too involved with activities but people know me and I've made a lot of friends.

IVR in need of more help- especially at night. More entertainment. Enjoy activities especially outdoor events.

Lived here since 2011 and I've always liked it. Since the chef of 28 years left, the food has changed dramatically, but I loved the liver and onions. I refer this place to friends and it's a great place.

Very Very neat place.
