Mixed Experience
reviewed on: 11/14/2013 by SonMy mom was there only a total of eight days. She finally had to leave because she fell trying to get up and go to the bathroom and broke her neck. I don't think it was negligence from the staff; she had a pendant around her neck and couldn't remember to tell them when she had to get up. After that, they wouldn't take her back because they said that she needed more care than they could handle. Before we left though, there was a whole bunch of changes. A lot of people left and the director went out on a leave of absence. My mom's roommate was a level 5, which is the highest level of care, and all of the sudden she was gone. I don't know what the changes were, but people just seemed to leave.
Very nice facility
reviewed on: 08/26/2014 by AnonymousThis is a great facility for the price. The building is well maintained and looks like an upscale hotel rather than an assisted living facility. However my mother does seem bored a lot of the time and I haven't seen very many activities other than Bingo or getting their nails done. I also think the rent is a little high considering the amount of space she has and that she needs no hands on care. The staff is super friendly, they know us by name and they really seem to care and most importantly, they do not have a a high turner over of employees.
Good experience
reviewed on: 06/11/2014 by AnonymousI’m satisfied and happy Emeritus. I would recommend it to people. It’s my first time. I thought I would have problems with being homesick, but it’s been a really good experience so far. I recommend it if it’s a service that would be helpful to you.

Options for care
reviewed on: 09/20/2017 by AnonymousWe toured this community for the care for my mom. We were happy with the staff who were able to answer the questions we had. The community was clean and the menu was appealing. We wanted a community that was able to work with our financial needs. We would recommend that other families tour this community for the care of a loved one.
