LCS

It was hard to make friends at first but my mom is having fun with the activities and slowly meeting people. The staff is very caring. They check on you if they don't see you at meals or at activities.

My mother, who has dementia, lives in this facility. Overall I have a good feeling about where she is at. I feel like she is safe, well-fed. These are my frustrations: - While I realize that there are many residents and staff is busy, I would appreciate better communication. My mother cannot communicate to me what goes on. I need to be told if she is in need of something (clothing item, adult diapers etc). I wasn't even told that she was incontinent and I needed to supply the diapers. It just became apparent. I would like to know if she is getting a shower or refusing. - Her clothes disappear. When she moved there I marked her clothing with her name. Her pants went missing. I bought her new pants which she only has one pair of now. I don't think I should have to go searching for her clothes. If they go to the laundry they need to be returned to her.

The food offered could include better food options for diabetics.

I toured Belleingham Independent Living twice. The second time I brought my mom and brother. We all agreed this would be a good fit for mom at the age of 90. She was apprehensive to leave her home, but knowing I was only 10 minutes away, and Bellingham Staff had a quick response time to resident emergencies, she agreed. Mom has met new friends and is learning her way around. Her apartment has recently been rennovated, and any concerns were addressed immediately. The staff we have interacted with have all been professional, friendly, and caring. I am happy with the choice we have made with Bellingingham Independent Living. Loretta and Cheryl helped make this a smooth and easy transition!

This would be my facility of choice for my mom for many important reasons to include the diversity in the lead administration despite less diversity amongst the residents. However, my mom was fatigue at the assessment and physically did not qualify at the time. Without a doubt, she would qualify if rested (at the beginning of the day before many other appointments and activities) and early in the day.

It's excellent . Wonderful staff and residents. The only thing is when someone pushes their necklace/call button for help there can be a long lag time to get a response. I worry about that happening during an emergency.

The room is very nice and the amenities are top-notch. But sometimes you have to be the squeaky wheel for the staff to really follow through on what they're supposed to do. I'd rather not have to complain for them to do what they're supposed to do given how much we're paying for our mother to be there. However, when we do complain, they are very responsive.

It is inclusive pricing initially appealed to me. Having mom there for a year now, it's the in- house doctor (now her primary care provider)...he's been a miracle worker...she's walking again, reading books, engaged, less pain with fewer meds...love this guy.

My Chinese auntie was in an independent apt at Broadway for 6 years, and when she fell, we explored 5 other assisted living facilities and ended up choosing to leave her at Broadway. The Assisted Living director [Name Removed] has a wealth of experience and is calm and caring. He is a nurse as well as director, so he can make good decisions. He works with me and keeps me informed, and I really appreciate that. Even though we are in the Assisted Living section, I always feel like I have the ear of Renee, the Director over the entire facility, and I appreciate that as well.

We moved to Amavida on [Date Removed]. This review summarizes our "rookie impressions" from the first 2 months. Overall impressions are positive in most areas. These include: Facilities, Activities, Life Style, Amenities, Dining, Health Services, Convenience, Personnel, and Overall Value. We have a few concerns about ADA compliance, parking, restaurant variety and convenience. Recent price hikes are not generating sufficient value, based on comments by other residents. However, we have not been here long enough to fully judge value. Personnel staff competence and cordiality is suspect in several areas. But generally, our impressions are very good thus far.

Great staff Clean, great decorations, homey, airy, lots of light, feels like a cruiseline, the average coast was never discussed, we have to have an idea of what you are getting into.

My wife and I feel very safe and secure at Wyndemere. The staff is first class and always go the extra mile for the residents. If needed the residents can find most of their needs in house. The property is situated ideally with medical facilities within five miles. Wyndemere provides bus service five days a week during business hours. Shopping opportunities are nearby.

My Mom has lived at Galleria Woods for 7 years and enjoys the community. The staff is very nice and the Garden Homes are perfect for her. However, the services, including maintenance and the food could definitely be improved.

My over-all experience was ok. They have some things appeal to most residents-but's is not the best one for the price we are a tough bunch to please. Our backgrounds are diverse and we can range from, college professors to legally very knowledgeable past job experience. I really enjoyed various personalities and their respective journeys. The food is so so I found a tolerable. My husband did not. But we have now been to over five residences. Guess what the food isn't any better better in any of them I swear there must be one food truck goes around to each Kitchen selling the same foods. Now to a happier topic the facility. Was always clean and always comfortable to live in. They make an effort to bring in entertainment that will satisfy most everyone overtime. When talking with residence who have lived there for a while, they could tell us who was good who we really want to see.

No one is perfect. The apartment is great. The kitchen is better than anything I ever had at home, with all new appliances. Both the staff and residents here are friendly and helpful. The dining hall is good, and they also have a very nice deli.

The cleanliness the establishment. Also, how big the apartments were, the availability of help to the residents. I definitely would recommend to others, but they need to keep in mind that Clarendale does not accept Medicaid so when you are out of money, you have to move out.

I like the people and would recommend this community to others

What I don't like, is that the residence don't seem to be as clicky as what it was over the other place and other other words. It seems like we only sit by the same people each mail and it's the only conversations we have during the day. I feel like I know a few people, but not like I'd like. Other than I like it over here very much.

With limited exposure up to this point I would have to say that it appears that the people living there are very happy and satisfied with the overall management of the facility. The friendly people! Even though the dinning area was flooded everyone could only say how nice it was to live there.

What we like about the community are the residents and the staff, they all are very nice. Also the food is good. We would recommend Bellingham at West Chester to others and have already recommended it
