Spectrum Retirement

I have visited with the residents at Homestead At Hickory View several times. It has always been a wonderful experience. I have noted the residents are kept engaged in various special events and activities. It has been my pleasure to attend these events and interact with the wonderful people who live and work at Homestead. I have also noted the buildings and grounds are very well cared for. Recently someone I know became a resident of Homestead. Staff there have been going out of their way to make him feel at home and accepted. The atmosphere at Homestead has always been welcoming when I go there. Homestead is just a wonderful place.

My sister is settling in nicely at Palos Verdes Senior Living. She enjoys participating in the numerous activities they offer. The food is nutritious, good and they offer a variety of choices. The community is clean and I would recommend it.

My mom lived in this community for about 2 weeks before she had a stroke and had to go to the hospital. The community is clean and well maintained. There has been no complaints about the food. The staff were wonderful. She started taking a computer class and we hope once she gets out of rehab she will be able to return to the community.

I spent extensive time looking for the perfect place for my mom to have true independent senior living, and our experience with Shawnee Hills has been wonderful. Katie and the staff truly took time to make mom feel comfortable in the transition, moving from a single-family home to the community. It would have been easy to be overwhelmed with the details of her move, but Shawnee Hills offers incredible resources to help with: ~home realtor needs (Steve is the best!) ~personal movers to help consolidate, pack, and unpack ~estate sales. Everyone we worked with was top-notch, and really cared about making the move as seamless and easy as possible. When my mother moved in, she had a spotless apartment that was freshly painted and brand new carpeting throughout the unit. She is making new friends, engaged in activities, and loves living in a maintenance-free community. She enjoys all of the amenities, dining room and meals, and many event options. She even enjoys fresh pedicures offered at the on-site, full-service beauty salon. The staff take great care of clients, and if they don't have visual confirmation of each resident by noon each day, they make contact to insure everyone is safe and happy. This move has allowed mom to remain independent, and me to hover a little less. Shawnee Hills has been a blessing to us, and we are grateful for everyone here!

My Tour with the community went very well. The community looked great, everything was nice and clean. This was the first community I toured, and I was very impressed. The staff and residents were very friendly and welcoming. It was a very pleasant tour with nice people.

I have looked at many facilities to place my husband in and High Pointe shines above the rests. The place is very clean and the staff are thoughtful and helpful to my husband. The administrated staff helped me get my husband into our van when I was taking him to a doctor appointment. The staff does laundry and assist my husband with whatever he needs. The food is EXCELLENT and the dinning room is like a 5 star hotel. I saw a resident from the previous care center my husband was in now at High Pointe. She never talked to anyone, She is now at High Pointe and is caring on conversations with me and staff . I was TOTALLY AMAZED!!! If she has blossomed here any and everyone will. This is an AMAZING PLACE. Come and see for yourself.

My mom is doing better than she has in the past since moving into Lombard Place. The staff are very friendly and attentive to the residents needs. The food is good as I have eaten there numerous times. They have a good variety of options to choose from. They have activities for the residents, however she does not participate. They have a beauty salon there so she is able to get her hair done weekly.

Our family is delighted with the positive, supportive community of staff and residents at Westview at Ellisville Assisted Living. From our first contact through what could have been a rocky transition for our 91-year-old mother, we have experienced kind and caring staff members who listen to our needs and are eager to help us. And - most of all - every staff member has helped our dear mother transition from her home smoothly and without a "hiccup". Mom loves the food, the environment, her apartment, and she even has been able to keep her beloved cat with her! We as a family of 7 also feel comfortable in the friendly atmosphere of Westview. We have all found a much needed feeling of security for Mom. We recommend Westview!

One week ago, my father-in-law moved to an apartment at Rigden Farm Senior Living and we are very happy with our choice. I have been impressed both by what is offered and provided, as well as the very friendly and helpful staff. I have especially noticed how very nice the other residents are - who are very social, welcoming and easy to talk to. Many residents like to sit at the front entry or the other common spaces, which is great to see. My father-in-law is experiencing a lot of freedom due to the terrific location of Rigden. He walked to the nearby supermarket (& pharmacy) at the outdoor mall (1 block away) within a couple of days. His independence has been very helpful for his family. Next he plans to take advantage of the city bus line that is practically right outside the front door; in addition to the Ridgen transport service. After that, he hopes to explore further with the nearby bike and pedestrian Power Trail. He is settling in quickly and we are very hopeful he will soon feel 100% at home.

We busted 7 facilities and decided that Lincoln Meadows was the place for my parents. The staff is awesome and Chef Neil's food is incredible. My parents who have a regular breakfast place didn't leave LM for a week after first moving in. We were shocked as they never missed a day at Nonos ever! We couldn't be happier with the activities and how the staff is helping my parents feel at home. I highly recommend them!!!

Lombard Place is truly amazing! The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, caring and professional. Their attention to detail is simply top-notch!! Each staff member is wonderful and they all make the residents and guests feel welcome from the very first step into the facility. Meals are scrumptious and menus are very customizable! I'd rate Lombard Place a first-class experience all around! This facility is a true gem.

My Father has adjusted well to this community and I am pleased. This is a lovely community and everything looks nice and pretty clean. There are some good staff members and some not so good one's . He has gone on a few outing trips, so they do offer good activities. The food is nice, they do serve a well balanced meals. It has been good experience and they are caring for my father well. I would recommend it.

I visited the facility and was impressed with all that was offered. Very clean and a lot of activities to choose from. I would highly recommend Park Meadows to anyone looking for senior living.

Park Meadows was one of the cleanest places we were in. Everyone was so nice and helpful the residents we spoke with talked highly of everything. The easy of getting in and out was great. We enjoyed speaking with everyone there

I work with Vitas Hospice and we have worked in partnership with Park Meadows taking care of many of their residents. They have a compassionate staff that looks after their residents and they have a very active community with many programs to engage their residents and families.

Most of the staff at Homestead truly cares about each resident and goes out of their way to help whenever possible. The residents become family! There are always going to be a couple of employees that are just there to do their job, but this is the exception rather than the rule. The building is going through renovations which will make it nicer than it already is. It is by far the nicest community in the area. The impact on the residents has been kept relatively minor thanks to management efforts. I would live in the community and hope it is still the "Gem of Washington" when I get to that point in my life. Keep up the genuine care for every resident!

Our experience with Southview Assisted Living has been a very good one, so far! The staff is communicative and friendly, and we really appreciate how well they keep us in the loop. They also made the whole move-in process very easy! The facility itself is bright, clean, and well kept, and our loved one seems to have settled in well.

We really enjoyed visitng a family member. We stopped in on our vacation. The staff was very friendly and help us find our way through the building. The dining room seemed to be a delightful experience. Thank you for taking care of our loved one.

Peakview's memory care has been a fantastic, caring, supportive environment for my wife's mother. We have experienced, in another facility, the downside of a beautiful building that promised everything and delivered nothing. Peakview has been the opposite experience for us. They care about their residents (and the resident's families) and respond in quick fashion to any observations and/or concerns that may arise. There is a human element and warmth in Peakview's care for my wife's mother that we found missing elsewhere. It has been almost five months since we moved her in and Peakview continues to provide timely communication and authentically cares about what we, as family members, see and observe regarding the care of our mother. I can't say enough about how timely they are in responding to conversations we have with any caregiver in the facility. They also have doctors who specialize in geriatric care, not just physician's assistants, see her on a regular basis in the comfort of her own room. That is an incredible benefit and very comforting. The staff members in the memory care are all caring, attentive, kind and compassionate people who are working there because they want to do that kind of job, rather than using it as a stepping stone to move on to another job. It is such a refreshing experience. The activities provided are plentiful and the food is great. There is always an option for us as family to bring our mom out of the memory care wing and eat with her in the more formal dining room located in assisted living. She enjoys that experience and the wait staff is consistently kind and friendly to her whenever they see her. Everyone who works at Peakview is always happy to see our mom and lets her know how much they like her. The highest compliment we can give is that we feel Peakview is a good home for our mom, as well as a fun place to visit her. It is a refreshing, positive and protective environment.

Very clean and well kept. Not a lot of people outside of their rooms and when we did meet someone they kept to them selves
