Highly recommend Norbella

I would rate a 5 for all. We've been very happy with Norbella Savage. It has been a great home for my mom. The staff are all very nice, which is not the case everywhere. My mom is happy with food and activities. I also like that their payment system is simple and straightforward, with just 4 care buckets, rather than a point system where it constantly changes. You know what you are paying every month. And we're actually paying less at Norbella where she has nurses right outside her room and better oversight than we paid at her last residence that was a larger facility and more like apartment living. Overall I'm very happy with Norbella and my mom is too.

Glenn Hopkins Review

The staff at The Glenn Hopkins is helpful and everyone seems to like what they do and where they work, which is important for these residents. The food is unfortunately very bad and the service in the dining room is untrained and scattered. They definitely need help on this front, but the overall care from the facility outweighs this negative.

Great Experience Through Some Difficult Circumstances!

I realize my mother is on a special diet that means she needs it cut very small but a lot of the time she gets mush! I think they try but I'm not sure about the head of meal services! My mom has been at The Glen for 18 mos. It took her awhile to acclimate to the schedule. Now she is really involved with staff, events and crafts. Making new friends everyday! Our brother died in January and she was surrounded with very caring people, staff and residents. Did I mention mom will be 98 in August!

No regrets on our choice of Talamore

My father is a resident at Talamore Sun Prairie and we've thought that everything has been top notch. When my daughter and I first walked in to check out Talamore, we were immediately greeted at the door and offered a tour. The staff seemed genuinely welcoming and the residents wore smiles on their faces and seemed happy to be there. I was worried that a place as nice as Talamore might be unaffordable, but was pleasantly surprised that not only could my father afford it, but he could afford an upgrade. Finding this to be a viable option for my father to move closer, we brought him for a visit. We put down a deposit that day. Since he's moved in, both my father and I have been pleased with his experience there. The move-in was smooth and my father has settled in. My father is a social person and regularly partakes in their many activities. I couldn't be happier than when he tells me about some activity that he participated in and how much fun he had. I also get regular updates on the dinners he has and how good they were.

Fabulous. Great, brand new facilities. Felt much more like a hotel/resort than an old folks home which we thought would be more appealing to loved one's husband since he was more appropriate for independent living than assisted living. Good level of activities and community available. Not overwhelmingly large. Particularly loved that in addition to typical levels of care available, also have some quasi-hospital suites next to nurse's station for when things get more serious or loved one needs highest level of care. Didn't love that it is in a congested area near high-rises/highways but that made it sooooooo convenient to our house and we as adult children could have been dramatically more helpful. Alas, could not convince them to leave Iowa, even for a couple of respite months.

Staff is very friendly

Friendly staff. Beautiful accommodations. Been a turnover of staff lately that has been upsetting to my mother in law. Staff is very friendly, though. Lots of activities as long as there isn't an outbreak of Covid. And when there is an outbreak of Covid they take it very seriously which as a family member I greatly appreciate. No housekeeping. There is a woman in the building that does it on the side but that has been on and off. My mother in law really likes her, but she doesn't show up all the time.
