Brookdale

Nice facility. Very homey and seemed like the residents were very happy and active. The staff we met were friendly and helpful.

Ok option, not too sure about memory care wing. Seemed too much like a hospital :( friendly staff, though

Emeritus at Sarasota: My experience with Emeritus at Sarasota has been a good one overall. The facility is kept clean, and the caregivers provide good care. Right now, they are in the process of merging so there are some staff that are good and should be there, and others I feel should not. I do feel my loved one is happy there, and overall I am too. I would recommend Emeritus at Sarasota to others.

The Summit at Northwest Hills: We've had a few issues with them giving the necessary attention to my loved one. Also, we were charged an extra $2,000 on top of what was quoted to us. Besides that, the people are nice, and facility is well kept. Overall I'm pleased with the services provided here.

This was a very nice & welcoming place. I liked that they had a pool. The one bedroom appt. was very spacious & nice. They provided the refrigerator & microwave. Only provided two meals & not three only breakfast & either lunch or dinner. There is a wait list to get in.

I think they are doing fine. They were less expensive than a lot of places, however the price goes up if the care goes up and that can be a significant increase. The caregivers there are wonderful! They are such patient people, they have taken good care of him. It's nice and clean, they are always cleaning. It's a good place, it just isn't working for us.

They are doing a pretty good job so far. The staff is friendly, and it is kept clean. Their follow through could be a little better. The weekend staff isn't quite as good as the weekday staff, they could improve a little. The food is pretty good.

I'm impressed by the friendliness and helpfullness of the staff. While it is to soon to give a more meaningfull review, I have no complaints thus far.

The administrator was very informative and open. He had a good rapport with residents and staff. I am concerned that he is leaving and a new person will be assuming the position. the Memory Care Unit will be renovated soon. It needs an update. Now looks drab so I am glad to hear it will look as nice as the rest of the facility. Facility overall was clean. I like that the medical and nursing services are integrated. The size is good - not too big and seems personalized. Total costs will be determined after nursing assessment is completed. Just a general concern that much of the literature points to making sure that residents are not 'nickled and dimed' every month. Longevity of most of the staff is a big plus. This was my first place to visit so no comparison but overall give Sterling House a 4 out of 5.

Not my father's choice but would highly recommend because of location to GHC and St Peter hosp. Nice and clean environment. Meals menu very interesting. Staff visit followup and support excellent.

I'm very pleased with the service of Clare Bridge of Brookfield. The staff is very engaging, considerate, and attentive. Administrative staff is good as well, adding with the Hospice staff that works with this facility. Overall I'm very pleased.

We were a little overwhelmed at first with numerous calls from the different facilities. We eventually choose this facility based on a suggestion from another facility and searching the internet. My Mother-in-Law was initially put in assisted living, but it became fairly obvious that she/we didn't understand exactly what her requirements would be. Since she needed additional care, she was moved to Skilled Nursing after 4 days. Please note that in assisted living, the ratio of CNA's to patients is about 1 to 20+ patients; therefore, it is rare to have immediate results after pushing the alert button. Sometimes it took up to 30 minutes. Another problem is a language barrier. Apparently most of the CNA's come from Haiti and sometimes they are hard to understand. Since moving to the Skilled Nursing I think she has gotten excellent care. She is basically bed-bound so the facilities aren't of interest to her. I think The Sweet Life at BVP is a great facility with great people working there who want to help their patients. This is not your old style nursing home.

I'm satisfied with the services at Emeritus at Dowlen Oaks. The staff is friendly, the facility is clean, I'm satisfied with the care they provide. Besides the AC unit being really loud, and one of the meals was about 30 min late, I'm very happy overall.

Liked this facility very much!

My experience with Oakhurst Towers has been good. They have been very helpful. The staff is nice. Food is ok. Overall I'm satisfied with their services, friendliness of the staff, cleanliness of the facility, and care they provide.

They do a good job overall at Clare Bridge of Eagan. As far as these sorts of places go it is very pleasant. The staff are friendly, cheerful, and caring. The facility itself is well kept and clean, and it seems like they have a good variety of amenities and activities and they try to keep their residents engaged and entertained. One aspect I was not particularly pleased with was the upfront "community fee" when we moved our loved one in. I don't feel like they mentioned it during the sales process, and it ended up being the same as an entire months rent, which was an unpleasant surprise.

Cuesta was very help full we were very please with what we saw

I'm satisfied with Brookdale Place. I'm pleased with the friendliness of the staff, cleanliness of the facility, care provided, and overall services. The food selection could be better.

I toured nine memory care communities in the Raleigh/Cary area. My choice was Clare Bridge generally for the fixed cost monthly fee and the caring attitude of the community management.

Things have gone well at Emeritus at Lake Ridge so far. The staff are very friendly, and they've been very good in regards to communication with the families of their residents. They always call me if anything changes, which I really appreciate. One thing they could stand to do a bit better is clean the common areas more frequently, they often look in need of a vacuuming. The residents rooms are always kept very tidy, however.
