I would like to very much know why Yelp has only chosen to showcase an unfavorable review of Maple…read moreRidge. My 61 year husband was accepted by Maple Ridge. He was young, healthy & very agitated with late stages of some kind of dementia. I was unable to locate a facility that would even consider him, given his age, etc. Maple Ridge allowed him the freedom to walk, walk, walk - the man was able to walk 5 miles 10 days before his death. Although my husband was only there for 2.5 months it was at a point where it was unsafe to have him home & my family & I could no longer give him the 24/7 care he needed to keep us all out of harm's way. They worked very hard with him to make him feel comfortable - no easy task. He was challenging to the staff & other residents - but this was the place for him. A nurse (Peggy) made a special outfit for him so he would keep his clothes on & maintain dignity. Another resident's wife also made him several. He formed a bond with Angela the housekeeping supervisor & he allowed her (& she did) help in his care - amazing. The entire staff could not have been more compassionate & caring. Towards the end when Hospice was called in - they were extremely accommodating. I was allowed to stay with my husband during his final days - we were able to enjoy each other's company without the stress of constant caregiving. I was with him when he passed - stroking his head & holding his hand - it was an experience that could have been terrible, but was very peaceful & loving. Thank you Maple Ridge for giving us his final gift.

My father resided at Maple Ridge Memory Care for three months. In that time he lost 12 pounds, his…read moreteeth began to show decay and he went a total of three weeks with only the clothing on his back as they lost the rest of his clothing. They routinely forgot to feed him or fed him with food in closed containers without silverware or food cut so he could eat it. He went over one month without an attempt at a shower, teeth brushed, bed changed and his room cleaned. There was regularly feces and vomit on his walls and floor. He was forced to use a towel when toileting as they did not keep his bathroom stocked with toilet paper. Despite significant feedback to every staff that would listen these significant concerns remained. Maple Ridge robbed my father of his dignity. Do not send a loved one to this terrible place. The head nurse, Heather Lambert informed me she "shoves" his medical record into a drawer with everyone else's and never looks at them. The documentation showed significant neglect and showed he did not receive basic care.

My mom has been at the Residence for two years. I would like to commend the staff for doing a…read moregreat job under very challenging circumstances. They are a nice group and work hard. However, I am moving my mom out in a few weeks to another facility. The corporate entity that governs The Residence and is building more units through out New England is, sadly, very unresponsive and is more concerned with the bottom line than resident care. A case in point: they offered a program that would help residents with pet care and transportation. They advertised this program and it was one of the main reasons we chose the Residence at Otter Creek. They, then discontinued it with only 30 days notice and basically left us all to figure out what to do next. There was an effort to out source the program to an existing program but it is not the same and requires lead time for transport etc. Hence residents are now in the process of taking limos to doctor appointments . I scrambled to find alternatives and happily was able to tide things over until I could make other arrangements. If this was the first time that Corporate had discontinued or reneged on services that would be one thing but it isn't. The changes just keep on coming including changing the time the front door is open - a money saving opportunity for Corporate and an inconvenience for everyone who lives there. When I reached out to corporate , I got a perfunctory "canned response" that was unsatisfactory. I would not recommend this organization especially in Middlebury where there are other more responsive options such as East View.

We are current residents who are pleased with the decision we made. New ownership & management are…read morebringing changes to make the community of residents stronger and more inclusive.

What a great experience I had. I needed help (last minute) to get my Mom into assisted living and…read morecalled Champlain Valley Senior Community. Eli from the office called me right back and I explained what I needed and asked for help. He was right on it and got back to me within a couple of hours and had a room for my Mom within 2 days. I was not sure what I was going to need and he told me not to worry that someone would call me to let me know and go over everything. I got a call from Jen MacDougal who told me she would walk me through the process and she sure did! We met with her the next day and went over everything. She clearly let us know what we should expect from showing us the room, the building and most important all the people who were working. She made it clear to ask ANY questions we had and she answered all of them. She is so professional and down to earth. I also got to meet Alyssa Frazier who works with Jen and make great team mates. They helped us with all our requests. We meet with Jen for several hours including going over all the medicine, Moms doctors and all her appointments. They do EVERYTHING so you do NOTHING but take care of your loved one. I don't know how to thank them enough. When they say that it starts from the top of the organization and works down, they are 100% right. The staff there is nothing short of AWESOME! Now that Mom has been there for a while, we still feel the same way and just LOVE the place. They have so many activities going on and make sure they offer things were everyone can be included. If you are thinking about having a loved one needing a place to stay don't think again, sign them up and know you are doing the right thing and you do not need to worry about a thing. Working with Jen, her communication is perfect and always get right back to you. I can't thank them enough!

The options for Senior living in the Adirondacks are limited. Having toured this place in…read moreconsideration for my parents who are reaching mid-70's - I am both impressed and comforted to know that without leaving the park quality care is attainable. The building is an old red brick school house converted into a warm, upbeat, well appointed home. They can scale up based on needs and or simply serve as an assisted living for those that are still getting around. This set up works well for my parents who are operating at different levels but definitely don't want to separate. During our tour we pulled over a few guests to capture opinions and all lined up to rank the this house as our top choice for my folks.
