[My loved one] stayed for a week in respite care and thoroughly enjoyed her stay. She had previously spent six weeks in rehab at East Castle following two weeks in patient at St. Mary's and received very good care. Thank you.

My name is Moe M. [removed]. I am an active, independent senior citizen. I use the word active because when I first came to this community, I was afraid. But as the day wore on, and as more and more people went out of their way to say hello to me and make me feel welcome, my fear melted away. I, like many here, have some form of disability. We are learning how to survive and be useful in spite of our physical limitations. Above all, the policies and programs are fantastic. Just to name a few, they schedule many outside trips to notable places that bring the residents much enjoyment. There are numerous exercise programs available as well, such as Tai Chi and Ballet. There are painting activities, jewelry making, and Brain Health University classes. Those classes especially, keep our minds alert and help us to wake up from the slower pace that life can take. For those that prefer quieter forms of leisure, there is Bingo, cards, and board games available to anyone interested. My preferred hobby was bowling, and even though I am not able to bowl like I used to, I participate in Wii bowling and that really makes my day all the more enjoyable. I can’t say anything more other than my stay at Bellingham has been a blessing God sent to me. My only wish for anyone fearful of this stage of life is that they come and see for themselves what a beautiful lifestyle we have here at Bellingham Retirement Community.

Having lived at Evergreen, in Cincinnati, Ohio, for 9 years, also a Senior Lifestyle Community, I saw many, many, inept directors come and go. This is the same with Bellingham. I am writing this review so that you become aware of the many sterling qualities that Jason Shott has. He is what Bellingham has needed for many years. When presented with a problem, he always follows through. HE LISTENS! We appreciate him as our Executive Director. He is pleasant, readily available and gets involved. His thoughtfulness is well noted.

I have been at Bellingham for 8 months now and did not come here by choice. I was certain that I would hate it, but now I'm a converted fan. The people here have been wonderful to me and there are numerous activities for everyone from crafts, to book club. to bridge and drum circle. I look forward to having dinner at night with interesting engaging people. The dining room is very attractive with fresh flowers on the tables. The young people who serve us are cheerful and amusing,And Just sitting on my balcony enjoying the beautiful grounds is a favorite relaxing moment, I certainly would recommend it to others

I came here not of my own choice about 8 mos. ago. I was ready to hate it, but have been completely converted to "a fan". The people are truly a delight, the young servers in the dining room are always refreshing and all the activities keep me going. There have been some recent changes in staff, but all have been most positive. I especially look forward to dining at night with interesting engaging people. Living in a positive atmosphere helps me deal with my day to day challenges. Just sitting out on my balcony looking at the beautiful grounds lifts my spirits.

Penney showed me around. She is very friendly with the staff and residents. One of the more comfortable feeling places that I have seen. Very, very modern décor to fit the building was just a little too modern for me. Also, did have a problem with $100 per month parking but it is a covered garage so may be worth it to some. Would still be my second choice due to the great location and amenities.

I would recommend the Bellingham Retirement Community. They have a variety of activities. My overall rating of this property is 5 stars. I haven't had any issues or concerts with this place. I rated the friendliness 5 stars. This is a very friendly facility that offers a great care service. The value is also excellent. It is reasonably priced. I would recommend this facility to anyone searching for a friendly community.

I love it here, it's wonderful! Everyone is very friendly, and it's well kept. I get involved with just about anything there is to get involved with. I don't have any complaints about the food, my family came and ate with me and they didn't have any complaints either. I tell people if it was any better I would be in heaven. Out of five, I would give them 6!

My loved one has Alzheimer's and Dementia. He is very old and and at that stage..He loves it there and I would recommend to other to take thier loved ones to the location..I give it a rating over all a 5 star rating..the place is very clean and the activities are well done.

I am very pleased with the way they do things from the care services, food, cleaning, activities and outdoor activities. My loved one is happy about being here and haven't hear any bad new or anything about Cypress Village.

The facility so far is really great their very accommodating. People and staff are really friendly and caring. Its has big dining area but kind of small on rooms. They give the attention to the elderly that need to be giving. They dont just do their job they go above and beyond.

We moved my mother into Greenwood Village South in December of 2014. Since my father passed away in March of 2012 it was becoming more apparent that mom was not able to live alone. She contacted me and expressed that she felt that she needed more help in her day to day living. I contacted Greenwood Village and was very pleased with the people that I dealt with in making arrangements for my mother. They were very friendly and efficient in helping me move mom. Since mom has been there, I have been very pleased with the care that has been given to my 86 year old mother. I now know that mom will get her pills each day, will have 3 good meals, and be safe and secure in her apartment. The staff contacts me often about changes that need to be taken care of for mom. The director of the facility has been very helpful in every way. The facilities are clean and well taken care of. Activities are available for any who want to participate. Meals are provided and clients are allowed to choose their own meals. Mom has much freedom to move about all within the confines of a safe and caring environment. I am very pleased with the Greenwood Village South Manor Assisted Living Facility.

When my son, who lives in Elmhurst, strongly advised me to move to Lexington, I was reluctant. I am sorry that I didn't move here sooner. The staff has been very accommodating in assisting with the transition. I was pleasantly pleased with the dining room staff, food, and these services, I especially enjoy the activities the Enrichment staff have planned. The current residents are very welcoming and I've made many new friends.

My mother has been in the assisted living here for several years and I have been very pleased!

I moved my husband into the memory care unit at Cypress Village called Clare Bridge. I toured just about every community in Jacksonville because I wanted to find the very best place for my husband. It was a difficult decision to make but finally decided on Clare Bridge. I have been very happy with my decision and have only wonderful things to say about the staff. I am happy I found a memory care that has male residents that are as active as my husband is. Most places I visited were depressing and I didn't see my husband being able to communicate with the others living there.I am confused by the previous review saying the care was a' La carte because the pricing is all inclusive. This one of the reasons I chose this community. I like knowing what my monthly rate is each month. I am glad I called them about their memory care because I was told it was a community where you had to put a lump sum of money down. This was not true. Having my husband in a memory care community is never easy but I am glad I found a place that provides great care and allows me to have a little bit of a life [removed]

Loved this property. Too far for my Mom though. Really nice people and large rooms.

We toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. I was very impressed by what I saw at Freedom Square! The meal we had was delicious, the apartments were comfortable looking and newly renovated, and the staff were all very friendly and helpful!

I just toured the facility haven't placed mom yet but upon the visit staff seemed friendly and the overall building and interior very nice.

Sedgebrook is an active indépendant community. Everyone is VERY friendly. My mother moved into Sedgebrook last month and has acclimated relatively quickly. Note to future residents.....she moved into a one bedroom unit and wished she had done a two bedroom. It is too late to do that now as it would require buying/selling. She has run into old friends (from grade/high school) and met many new people.
