Compared with their assisted living affiliate Beechwood, they were most definitely better-organized. From what I learned, it's very costly to live there. I probably wouldn't cough up the cash, but if this kind of place (for downsizing ambulatory seniors, who may or may not be on Yelp) is your bag, I'd feel pretty confident about the quality.

We had to place our mother at Beechwood Continuing Care 12/2019 and 3 months later the nation faced…read morethe unthinkable... The Covid-19 Pandemic. I will never forget the night on March 19, 2020. I had to say goodbye to my mother, who we saw & cared for Everyday. This was the Beginning of the End. Throughout the pandemic we FaceTimed. Then there were scheduled 1/2hr door visits. I wondered why the staff was bringing my mother to the door visit by wheelchair. My mother walked with her walker, she even got into my 3 row SUV. I insisted on seeing if my mother could walk, sadly she could not. Door visits and FaceTime calls were getting more difficult. I began to see the fast decline. My mother was constantly confined & isolated in her room (bc of positive Covid cases) with no stimulation or socialization. She never got Covid. By the time I finally got inside for an indoor visit she didn't know me. She knew we were her daughters because we had to tell her, but she didn't know our names. Then we were allowed 2 designated caregivers. By then, my mother barley opened her eyes. We took her on an out pass (which was difficult because she's now confined to a wheelchair) for a makeover. I took over doing all of her laundry again. Cleaned her room (it was awful), bought new bedding and tried to get things back to "our way". Eventually we had to start feeding her homemade meals that we brought each day. Then we began to purée her food because I noticed she was pocketing her food and struggled to swallow. Then I began to notice she couldn't drink out of a cup or through a straw. Beside myself, after a long weekend at Beechwood I made a call Monday morning reaching out for help to teach me ways to get my mother to drink. DID I MENTION THAT EVERY-TIME THERE WAS AN ISSUE IT TOOK US DAUGHTERS TO NOTICE, TO REPORT IT TO THE SOCIAL WORKER OR VISITING NURSE. So now I finally get a call after reaching out for help that my mother has aspirating pneumonia and a nodule on her lung (they scrambled and ran tests the day after I made the call). So now they finally tell me about "thickened liquids" which I never knew of. My mother should've been on the thickened liquids the day she went on puréed food. BEECHWOOD HAD DROPPED THE BALL SO MANY TIMES, ITS DISGUSTING! Now at least 31/2weeks go by and I hear from No One. I wanted to have my mother evaluated by hospice but was convinced by Rose the social worker that if I did that I would lose the visiting nurse from IH and that keeping her would be better at this point. So I listened. I filled in for my sister on Friday 4/30 (we went every night) because they have a "fill in" LPN from different floors because the full time day LPN and night LPN need time off so it was important to be at Beechwood especially those nights. My mother ate the puréed meal I prepared but I couldn't get her to drink my thickened liquids. I got her washed up and settled in. I expressed my concerns to the LPN on duty, my mothers breathing was like a loud rattle (I took a video and showed the LPN). I even asked to stay. She said "I got you, I'll look in on her" and then told me she got her to drink a bottle of water and glass of milk that day. I said no, no.... Thickened Liquids Only. The LPN indicated that it didn't say that on her care sheet, she even showed me, then she made notes. I left feeling uneasy. I called around 10:15 to check on my mother which I never had to do. The LPN said there are NO CONCERNS FOR BETTY, I gave her a glass of puréed OJ and put her to bed at 9:30 so there are NO CONCERNS. I received a phone call at 7:15AM telling me my mother passed away. The phone call that I made Friday night could've been handled so differently. All the LPN had to do was put me on hold to check in on my mom. They claim she died peacefully in her sleep. My struggled with her breathing, she was filled with fluid and she was all alone. I'm heartbroken DO NOT PUT YOUR LOVED ONE IN THIS FACILITY. All you get is lip service from everyone.

Canterbury Woods in Williamsville is a CCRC and serves residents who are totally independent to…read morethose who need Assisted Living, Skilled Nursing or Memory Care. A person must be at least 62 to be accepted and must come in at the Independent level. There are several financial packages available. Whatever the rental cost of their apartment in Independent will be the same cost if the resident requires any of the other services as time goes on. In Independent Living, where I am most familiar, meals are provided in two fine restaurants and a cafe, and weekly cleaning is provided if you want it. Many people compare the living culture here with that of a cruise ship - there is access to a pool with a daily aqua aerobic class; yoga classes, balance and other exercise classes are available as well. There are also art classes; assorted classes in various topics by resident college professors; and to top is off there is a theater where professional and amateur performances are readily presented to the community and residents needn't even going outside. There is also a convenience store manned by volunteers and a Weekly Happy hour with music, wine and snacks. There is so much more! In my opinion after living here for eight years, I think it's a fine place to retire!

Although the quality of the facility, care and programming slipped somewhat over the years, things have nosedived dramatically since Kara became the new executive director. Food quality has declined, outside activities (bus trips for lunch or tours, etc.) have been significantly reduced and recently the facilities have been infested with bedbugs. To make matters worse there is absolutely no communication by Kara with outside family to explain or even acknowledge any of these issues, leaving us to be detectives to find out what is happening there. This is not acceptable for a facility charging $3,000 per month. An executive director who does not respond to telephone calls or emails is also not acceptable. In my opinion the friendly, family atmosphere of Amberleigh is gone, replaced by one of collect money, don't acknowledge problems and keep family in the dark. Needless to say, we are moving my sister out ASAP.

When she first moved in there were linen table clothes and the tables were clean and set up for the next group of diners. The food was cooked well and hot when served. And the food tasted good. Not so any more. There are not enough servers. The pay scale at Amberleigh is very low. The employees need to be paid a living wage. Perhaps that would encourage people to apply for work at Amberleigh. The staff turnover is very high. The carpets in the halls are dirty and need to be replaced. The elevators are filthy and in need of a deep cleaning. Amberleigh has been very good about increasing the rent each year. On the plus side, the staff are very friendly and helpful. The entertainment provided by Amberleigh is great! My mother has made many friends and enjoys spending time with them.

Brompton Heights, in my opinion, is one of the best I have ever walked into. After 40 years as a professional in the medical field, I have seen many many things, both good and bad. I am especially keen to keep an eye out for things that aren't so good in the nursing home industry. My loved one's assisted living journey began at another local facility. Because of the less than good care that was received he moved to Brompton Heights. This is a decision our family will never regret. There was also never a day or even a moment when he or his family was not treated with respect and dignity. He was without a doubt, a member of the Brompton community. He sadly left us on 12/31/24 because of recurrent cancer while under Hospice care. My biggest concern and fear upon learning his cancer had returned was how his pain would be managed. I was truly scared of this unknown. I can now honestly say that there was never a time where his physical or emotional needs were not met within a short period of time I can only speak to the tremendous staff on the North unit but I have no doubt that the South unit demonstrates the same incredible quality of care. Every single person in every single department that met him treated him as he deserved to be treated, as someone who mattered. Almost every single time I walked into the facility I would see a staff member or two, or three gathered with a resident offering comfort and sharing a story or telling jokes I am grateful for the care that my loved one ( and my family members ) received during the time at Brompton. Thank you each and everyone one of you from the bottom of my heart.
