The staff was very caring and went over and above in making sure Mom's physical and emotional needs were met. Mindy, Laura, Shiane and Anita and many others were always there for mom and the family! The facility is beautiful and clean and the meals were delicious. ( I really liked the stuffed bell peppers) But the main thing is that they were loving, compassionate, helpful, encouraging, and uplifting while caring for all the residents and their families. We will always rememeber and forever be grateful for each of them. -The family of L. Drewry-

My father was a resident in the Maple Wood Alzheimer's Special Care facility for the last five…read moremonths of his life. This facility was absolutely wonderful for him! He had previously spent a few weeks in a different high quality nursing home, but he did terribly there due to his desire to constantly be on the move and becoming overstimulated by the noise and activity. He actually was expelled from that facility due to his restlessness and interference with other residents - such as going into their rooms and bothering them. Since all of the patients in Maple Wood suffer from similar cognitive limitations, his behavior was not as disturbing to the other residents and he enjoyed the quieter environment. He loved to walk the hallways and could stop and sit in readily available and comfortable seating. [By regulation, chairs are not allowed in the hallways of most nursing homes.] The staff were WONDERFUL. They obviously cared for dad and did their best to keep him nicely dressed and groomed - which was not easy due to his resistance to "help" and his penchant for "borrowing" other peoples belongings. The food was also wonderful, which resulted in his gaining weight (he had been anorexic) shortly after moving in. When dad began his terminal decline, the administration and staff gave us the opportunity of involving hospice and he passed away peacefully in his room with family members at his side. I never fully relaxed prior to dad's living at Maple Wood. I always had concern in the back of my mind that he would get himself into some sort of trouble and would either harm himself (accidently) or that I or my sister would have to drop everything and run to his rescue. Once dad had moved to Maple Wood, I was able to fully relax when I was away from him, as I knew he was safe and being cared for better than I could!

Turners Rock is a truly outstanding senior living community! The building is modern--only about…read morefive years old--and offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care. Unlike many other senior communities, Turners Rock is bright, contemporary, and impeccably clean. The floor plans are especially impressive, with spacious layouts and large bedrooms--something you rarely find in other senior living options around Springfield. But what truly sets Turners Rock apart is the warm, welcoming community and the exceptional staff. Brad, the director, is friendly, responsive, and genuinely devoted to the residents. The activity director, Will, is absolutely PHENOMENAL--charming, personable, and hilarious! He constantly goes above and beyond to keep residents engaged and entertained. One creative example: he prints "funny money" with residents' photos that they earn at activities and spend at a monthly auction. The Turners Rock driver, Lezlie, is incredible--she takes my mom to doctor's appointments and has even taken her shopping at the mall. She always goes the extra mile (pun intended!). My mom loves the variety of activities , events, and outings that Will plans. There are about six activities each day--like exercise classes, trivia, book club, Bible study, bingo, Wheel of Fortune, bocce ball, movies, and more. Residents can also take the shuttle bus for picnics, plays, movies, and restaurant outings. The on-site restaurant is contemporary and open for dining between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. (I believe). The servers know the residents by name and even remember many of their preferences. The menu offers plenty of options along with daily specials. Sometimes the chef even names dishes after residents, which is such a thoughtful touch. The desserts are always amazing, and family members often visit during meal times--just $7 for breakfast and $10 for lunch or dinner. My parents moved into the independent living section in October 2023. My dad later transitioned to the Memory Care Unit for a few months before he passed away. It was a huge relief for my mom to know he was safe and well cared for during that time. And he was just steps away, so my mom could easily visit him each day. I live in California and have stayed at Turners Rock seven times since my parents moved in. Knowing my mom is surrounded by friends and supported by such a compassionate, capable team brings me tremendous peace of mind. I'm so grateful to everyone at Turners Rock. 10/10 recommend!

Review of The Gardens Memory Care…read more Parent with a diagnosis of Dementia of Alzheimer's type was there just under 6 months when they requested we find another facility. This was due to increased falls and cognitive decline resulting in mobility issues. We were informed the facility was not staffed to provide walking assistance or wheelchair transfers. We were advised to apply to skilled nursing facilities, but several rejected our request since there are no health issues other than dementia that require skilled care. Administration promised to help find a new facility. However, it became apparent that their "help" was only sending out more referrals to other skilled nursing facilities with no regard to ratings or location. During this process, parent was suddenly moved to a different room with no prior notice. We expressed concerns that this was not in the best interest since we would be relocating to another facility soon. Our concerns were dismissed and the move occurred in less than an hour! This was a direct violation of patient rights of having a written notice before changing rooms or roommates. On the positive side, the CMTs and aides were extremely kind and attentive. These providers were expected to care for residents' needs, dispense medicines, unlock door for visitors, take phone calls, plate food that was sent from the Assisted Living side, serve meals, and clean up. Often there were only 2 people on the floor to do all of these tasks. Needless to say, there were times meals were late due to lack of help! Bottom line: This is Level 1 Memory Care, so as disease advances, they are not equipped to handle the decline. Administration talks a good talk, but it pretty much ends there. While we recognize this is a business, we believe better communication and understanding toward patient families are necessary. The staff members who care for residents are compassionate and positive. They bond with residents, and it is apparent they truly care about them. Staff deserves a 5-star rating, but the overall facility rating is lower due to administrative decisions.

Thank you to the associate that was so kind and gracious to show me around. This is such a big decision for a family to make and you sincerely made me feel that each resident is important there.

Just because I have to leave one star. When my mom first went to Grandbrook it was a great place…read more Staff seemed to genuinely care. Several key people were replaced and the care seemed to just fall apart. I had to repeatedly ask to have my mother's drinks filled (I supplied juice for her) and yet a few weeks ago one day after I questioned about her drinking and bringing two gallons of juice I had to have an ambulance take her to the hospital while she was in and out of consciousness and having mini seizures 24 hrs later. After spending hours in the hospital and two bags of saline given to her she was fine and Dr.s told me she was extremely dehydrated. Not to mention that I have photos for four days her bathroom having poo splattered all over wall and around toilet. Recently before moving her out of the facility I (who has POA for my mother) was told that I could not have access to the records that were "supposedly" being maintained to show how much she was drinking because those were "internal documents". I actually called the Council on aging and was told that that was completely false. It's too bad that a great facility turned the wrong way because it at one time was great.... Key importance is make sure you check in on your loved ones often .... Things aren't always as they appear!!!

Then the lies, for instance about the private bath included in original price. Actually a private room with a jack n Jill bath shared with another woman. Mom not happy, so in order to get her a private bath as well, 800 dollars a month more. Then issues with staff. Administrative and lack of general help. Lots of turn over in employees. The food went downhill and every time I visited I had to help someone, choking, can't find the restroom, trying to get out of wheelchairs it goes on and on. Then because mom was one of the more higher functioning patients she was asked to help out with the other people? Patients helping with other patients? Getting her out of there was a big hassle too. 30 days notice and then when that was up well when is she moving? Can you get her out faster? Like there was a line to get in that over priced sh%t hole. Oh how about this family asked to leave on Christmas eve? Nice people there at Grand Brook! Not! I could rant on and on but basically if you care about your elders skip this place entirely.
