Gratitude for Crucial Respite Care & Kindness

Thank you so much for all your help - so grateful. And your service was an absolute godsend. Made all the difference to us when my brother and I were in crisis mode needing to find respite care for [name removed] and in a quick timeframe and with a limited budget. I felt like your organization was a guardian angel helping us narrow our search from 100s of options to a select list of realistic matches. Many thanks.

My experience, overall a nice community, would recommend commonwealth senior living.

They show having a salon when you take a tour but they really don't. Yes, we would recommend the community to other families based on the experience so far.

'would recommend

Has improved since I believe they aren't full and there are more employees per patient. Also noticed they now have cleaning staff on the weekends which helps everyone. The food always looks good when I am there and my Dad can get seconds if he wants. My Mom primarily handles things so zi dont have dealings with Admin but she says they are responsive when she has issues or questions. I think they do have activities but not on the weekend I dont think. There are toys available to use if we want to during the visit. She is also there every day so Im sure that helps his care as she gets to know everyone and is not afraid to speak up. They have a nice outdoor area for patients and when its not so hot it is a nice place to visit. Mom has switched his room a few times and they have always accommodated her. (One was smaller and one was noisy with the ac unit nearby I think. Oh another thing they are good at is when there is a shift change, they communicate well with each other

Our Family's experience

The staff was friendly. My mother never received her meds on time. Although we addressed it. She and other residents complained about the food. My mother said it was not good at all. Her room was not cleaned only something's in the bathroom occasionally.

Unprofessional

I don’t like how some of the RCAs are treated they go above and beyond for my loved one and the med tech on day shift is very rude she has an attitude with the rcas sometimes or the family members when asked a question commonwealth is very understaffed and very unorganized……. Some of the head people in the office doesn’t seem friendly at all it’s 2 rcas that does a wonderful job and I really appreciate them for being so nice to my loved one

Commonwealth at Chesterfield

My father is I memory care and I think the aides do the best they can but they are understaffed, especially on the weekends. Their philosophy is to let the patients do their thing, whether it be up all night or walking around...which I appreciate but the patients need more supervision than they are getting. The staff is always friendly and helpful, but clearly overwhelmed with so few of them per shift. Things could be improved if they just had more staff.

Great experience

A place for mom made finding a nursing home for my friend [name removed]much easier and it ended up being a good place all the way until the end of my friends life. I have recommended a place for mom to several other people.

Review for Commonwealth Senior Living at Chesterfield

The eating area floor is half-cleaned (I've watched this several times,) and it's often apparent that my loved one has not been recently bathed. Clothes and bedding have gone missing - I assume to other wards. The meals (lunches) do not show a lot of effort. I would probably recommend CSL if they were cheaper, and I feel that the staff, in general, does the best they can with what they've got.

Look elsewhere for your loved ones

The facility was designed nicely. The decor was pleasant. The staff bordered on indifferent to wanting to be left alone. The head nurse was very pleasant but her attitude didn't transfer to the staff that walked into his room. My husband was there for 5 weeks. He was very sick. I willingly paid top dollar for what I was told would be top care. He did not get it. It was a sad way to end a 56 year marriage. The night before he died I talked with his hospice nurse about moving him to a different facility. I was too late.

Would recommend

They do a good job in all areas, but there is room for improvement. Management could specify aides exact duties as some seemed to avoid less pleasant duties. Most issues involved staff shortages, but I feel they were always advertising openings. Any matter brought to executive director was handled immediately.

While my father is now deceased after three months of getting into a place. What was most important to me was how you all help me. Find him a place right away when I needed it the most.

our families experience transitioning mom to assisted living.

The initial sales person was wonderful. My mom has mental health issues so she was a challenge for them. The communication could be much better with returning emails in a timely fashion. Out of other communities we had looked at, Commonwealth Senior Living was the only one that would except our loved one. I would recommend it if they're trying to find placement for a love one

The staff at Commonwealth have worked with us very well. They're making sure that our loved one's medication is being administered as needed. They care about his well being. And I would highly recommend them.

Top of the Line Facility

My loved one did not move into the facility, because it was too far to travel to. They were top of line. We were attracted by, the cleanliness, and programs offered catering to the memory care facility part. The dining area was very nicely done. Everything was great.

Our experience so far

We decided on Commonwealth because they commented on their fresh food program. I have found that is not always the case though. It is not that it isn't fresh, it just isn't the quality that they described during the tour experience. The facility seems to be very clean. My mother is well taken care of and whenever she calls for assistance they call as they can to help.. I would overall recommend this facility to other families.

Dissapointing Care

Some people were friendly, while others were rude. The head nurses were so compassionate. They were a bit unorganized when my loved one arrived, and everything was not ready. It was a nice facility but overall it wasn't the highest level of care that I expected.

This facility is pretty clean. The housekeeping is up and down. They have lost a lot of my loved one's clothes with the laundry service. I wouldn't recommend them.

Our families experience so far

Commonwealth Senior Living is very close in location so very convenient for us. We do like that our loved one gets more attention then any other place he has been to, the day to day staff who work with our loved one are great. However the leadership could improve more on their communication - we had recently followed up with them to double check our loved one for a UTI and unfortunately they did not do that, so our love done ended up in the hospital with a severe UTI and a small stroke
