Bonaventure is a very good place--but with added staff it could be EXCELLENT.

Staff is a bit slow to respond because they are not fully staffed and need to hire in ALL area of Bonaventure. However, the staff that are there are very kind, caring, and supportive. The food is EXCELLENT and very reasonably priced for guests. We like Bonaventure, but it would be better if they were fully staffed and put effort into the activities. I have heard from longer time residents that the social aspect and activities were excellent. However, recently they have not been very good due to lack of staffing.

I have heard from longer time residents that the social aspect and activities were excellent. However, recently they have not been very good due to lack of staffing. I have heard this many many times from longer time residents. They just hired and promoted a young man named Ken to be the activities director. He is very outgoing and seems like he might (hopefully) get the activities and social aspects of this facility back up to where they were or better. I also like the assisted living director. She is very attentive to my MIL needs. Unfortunately, I think she might also be short staffed, which is impeding on her ability to function at her top level. The cooks are excellent. The wait staff in the dining rooms are definitely short staffed. However, they really do a good job with all the tasks they need to do during meals. I feel sorry for them because they are understaffed and seem to be doing the work of 2-3 staff members each. But they remain cheerful and attentive. To sum it up, this Bonaventure location BADLY NEEDS to hire MORE quality staff to function at the level of excellence it wants to portray.

High staff turnover

They have a very high staff turnover that impacts services. Apartment size is nice. Has space for washer and dryer which is a must have for us Location is very convenient for getting anywhere. Close to I205 & I5. Not a good walking area though.

Not enough staff it seems like, major staff turnover rate it appears as well. Overall it is good. I am sure all assisted livings are having staffing problems. Staff that is there is very friendly and helpful.

Worst place ever for memory care

We moved my Mother in the middle of July and moved her out the middle of September. She had fallen and broken her leg and her memory/dementia was such she wasn't able to go home with our full time care. We paid over $[fee removed]/ mo and they didn't fulfill their portion of the contract. The care here was horrible and we have had issues with them from day one: -Not responding to the pull cord for help. I myself have pulled the cord twice and got no response WHATSOEVER. - Not locking the door to my mom's apartment... The other residents, 2 in particular, regularly just walk in and take things or in one case a gentleman left his clothes in her bathroom. -Not bathing my mother -Not cleaning her apartment -Not doing laundry regularly as stated, only when asked -Being so short staffed that they did not get my mother for lunch or bring her a tray of food. -Informing us of her prescription needing to be refilled WHEN SHE WAS OUT on a Friday afternoon! Do not leave your loved ones here!

Choose Carefully for Your Loved One

It started out okay in independent living. But we had to move them to assisted and that's when the nightmare began. My mom had a bad fall and the Care plans that we had made with Bonaventure were not followed through on. They did not deliver meds on time. They did not check on them and we ended up hiring an independent caregiver to come in which we should not have to have done. My dad spent the day in memory care had falls that were not recorded and reported to me and lots of other items. They are very short staffed and cannot take care of their residents.

Appearances can be deceiving.

I don't think we knew the right questions to ask. If you can share some of these it could be helpful. No one is prepared to move their mother. How common is it to increase the monthly payment? How long has your staff been working for you? What is the turn over rate? How is your staff trained? Do you document the times you check on a person? On the positive, They have a lot of activities that people could participate in, but my mother didn't...she would get tired. She did enjoy the food. Overall I would not recommend them.

A Good Place to Live

Beautiful building, staff very good/ nice and friendly, building has independent living, assisted living and Memory Care. Memory care very good with good ratio of caregivers to residence. Friendliness- I have been here [time frame removed] and only one man has spoken to me, very few men respond even to a good morning in the hallway. Women are more friendly and converse when approached.

Started out strong, has been rough lately

In the beginning everyone and everything was bright and pleasant at Bonaventure. All of the residents were (and still are) very kind and friendly. The staff were amazing, [name removed] at the front desk, [name removed] one of the managers, [name removed] another manager and the activity director (can’t remember her name) were all fantastic! All of the residents and staff knew each other and greeted each other in a friendly/natural way. Recently it seems almost all of the original staff left or were let go and every position and office seems to have someone new. They seem ok but not nearly as friendly or welcoming as the previous staff. The residents that’s I’ve talked to about it seem very concerned with the change and miss the previous staff. Not sure what happened but so far it doesn’t feel like the atmosphere is improving.

Happy with our choice

The staff is wonderful with mom - patient , kind, attentive. They are easy to get a hold of when we have questions and keep in touch with us well. They try hard to keep the residents entertained but it's rather difficult with dementia patients. We are very happy that our mother is there.

Has room for improvements

#1 - Many times, the staff would just come in to ask if I needed anything. One time it was at midnight, door was locked, no knock, just used their key. #2 - After our things were moved in by movers, I found a drawer in the bathroom with hair and some belongings as we as prescription drugs belonging to the prior person. Gave them the drugs, they said they would send someone up to clean, never did. #3 - Staff was always friendly. #4 - was only there a short time prior to being hospitalized for 57 days, then I moved to a different community. My husband was in memory care and came up with wearing women's clothing and losing some of his in the process. #5 - Administration did not return my calls or respond to emails. After messages left a second or third time, another member of staff called or emailed. #6 - food was okay, but they were usually out of something, i.e. coffee creamer, ham or bacon. #7 - I wasn't able to participate in activities as I was hospitalized almost the entire time we were renting there. #8 - It was not a horrible place, but if expecting whistles and bells it would never get there. All communities tell you to treat it like home, but you really can't. Each one is different, and I'm in my third community. So far, I truly liked [community name removed]. We left because I wanted to live with my husband in memory care and they don’t have the option. Husband passed two weeks ago so I'm independent living now.

Review for Bonaventure of Vancouver

Comments: 1. Beautiful facility 2. Clean 3. Kind and courteous staff. 4. A bit Spend, but they will work with you to help bring the price down if they can. Family member may have to take on some of the everyday caregiving tasks, such as laundry or house keeping, no big deal but you will save money. 5. Punctual 6. Pet friendly 7. Loads of activities. Negatives: staff overturns, but that's everywhere, and the food is so so.

1. Adequate 2. Common areas nice 3. They are friendly 4. Care is an issue. They do not follow thru with making sure things are done per care requisites. 5. Admin staff do not follow through with requests nor return calls. 6. Food is okay. 7. Mom didn't participate so can't answer on this. 8. Value is ridiculous. They keep raising price to unreasonable costs. Found location that offers all amenities for a much lower cost. The price is not acceptable.

BonaVenture family members disappointed by facility meals

The facility is clean and neat, but the food is terrible, we would give that a -10. We would not recommend Bonaventure of Vancouver to other families. Food is a big deal for the elderly. She has had sandwiches with moldy bread, they have run out of items before all have been served. The meat is too chewy and could cause choking. Everything is buried in bad sauces. It's not even average, it's bad. If moving wasn't so hard I think she'd leave. She does like her apartment and gets food from the store to supplement her meals.

A heavy weight off my heart

I had to order hospice for my person. Staff made the transition bearable. They were phenomenal comfort to me and took great care to provide my person everything needed. He had a studio which had room for his bed, a dresser, and a recliner. It also had two very large closets. The bathroom was large. The room had a window to the secure court yard. The whole experience starting with A Place for Mom could not have been better. I was finally able to sleep at night knowing he was well cared for.

The staff was welcoming and accommodating. Beautiful facility. The staff(Caregivers ) did their best, but the facility is understaffed. Caregivers are working long shifts and continuous days. The turnover is high. The meals look appealing but the taste of the food is awful.

I personally would not recommend

Shortly after my spouse and I moved into assisted living, I became extremely ill and was hospitalized for almost two months. Since no one was able to take care of my husband with dementia, they promptly put him in their memory care unit. For this, I am grateful. He likes it there and adjusted well so he is still there. In the original apartment that I rented, I found an extremely dirty drawer in the bathroom with a previous owner’s RX and brought it to the attention of management. They said they would take care of it right away, however after I came back from the hospital, the drawer was still untouched. Several times I sent emails with questions to the director, but no response until I resent the original a second time. We only ate a few meals there, but they were always out of something. First, it was ham (someone said they had been out for weeks), secondly they were out of coffee creamer. To our age group that drinks a lot of coffee, creamer is a must for some.

Review for Bonaventure of Vancouver

I would recommend Bonaventure because the overall caregiving was very good. I had my favorites and was sad when they left for other opportunities. But no matter who took care of my mom, they were very professional and I could tell that they cared for my mom. The staff kept me updated on things going on with mom even if it was late in the evening. It took a few months for the long term care insurance issues to fall into place, but it did eventually. I think that the one thing that was frustrating was that once my mom had moved in, the communication with both the Executive Director and Assistant Executive Director had kind of fallen by the wayside in that replies to my emails were not answered very much so whenever I went to visit mom, I would drop by their office if they were there and get my questions answered. But aside from that, I was happy with the care and the professionalism the staff exhibited. They checked in with my mom a lot, despite being very busy.
