My experience

I have a problem with them in that they charged me [removed] for the first month and my husband only lived two weeks, he died on [date removed] last year and entered Viva ( it was Commonwealth then). I was told that I would get a refund for any days that weren't used in case of his death, and I never got a dime. I texted [name removed] several times and he said he would let me know when the check was issued but I never heard back. I called Viva but no one answered, so I left a message but again, they never responded. I wish A place for Mom would tell them that they are not going to recommend Viva if they treat the families in this fashion. I liked the staff and the manager [name removed]. The facility is nice, unfortunately those places are never enjoyable.

Personalized Care & Lovely Staff

My brother is in a unique situation. He had a debilitating stroke several years ago. He's only 55 and tried his best to live independently but his health declined and he couldn't properly take care of himself. Reluctantly we decided he needed to be in assisted living. Everyone I have met at Viva treat him with respect and encouragement. They truly want him to regain his strength so that he can once again have his independence. The caretakers at Viva don't leave him sitting in his room; they engage him, laugh with him, cheer him on...and when the gets down, they won't let him quit. The ladies (and gentlemen) I've encountered have the most incredible hearts. [name removed] the Medical Technician, [name removed] and [name removed] the Resident Care Aids are patient, thoughtful but also no-nonsense...which is exactly what he needs! In the past 3 months, he has lost weight, improved his overall health and has regained a more optimistic outlook. The team at Viva did that!

Compassionate and friendly

They kept the place very clean and smelling great. There was always someone near each door monitoring who came and went. Loved the security access at each building. Staff was very friendly and helpful while we were present. They did go out of their way to help us. There was a little lack of office support as we never were emailed or given paperwork after we signed the contract, however they did realize they had withdrawn large amount in error and did return that money per our special instructions related to the estate. I would definitely recommend them to other families!

Viva Senior Living at Cockeysville

For the value for cost - but this is really hard because I think ALL these places are too expensive. We will be out of money in about 4 years, maybe 3, so I have NO idea what we'll do then. I would recommend Viva SL Cockeysville for people who care deeply about their family members and their level of care. This community is also somewhat affordable compared with places like [community removed]. And really the best thing about Viva SL Cockeysville is its small size. Even when they're busy, it's not hard to find a med-tech or an aid. That goes a long, long way and increases the overall level of care. And I'll add, the new director is committed to making the food better, offering more fresh vegetables and fewer fried foods.

They need better communication. Since new ownership the only communication is the invoice. They are average and good for the price.

Short stay but worth the money

My father stay at Commonwealth for two months before he passed, Commonwealth excepted him when other Assisted Living centers would not. Although it was short stay and experience the entire staff treated my Dad as though he was a member of their family. From the first day until his last he had excellent care.

Staff is very caring. Both the director, [name removed] and resident care director, [name removed] are RNs who have specialized in dementia and memory care. The activity director spot had been vacant since we started there. She just started [date removed] and appears to be doing well

The good and the bad

At first, I found this facility to be great, people were friendly, the rooms were really nice, just a wonderful place. Unfortunately, my mom spent a lot of time in and out of the hospital and rehab, and I found out that while mom was not there in her room, things were stolen. Patients' rooms were kept locked when they weren't there and while I can't speak for others, I KNOW for a fact that one of the facility workers had gone in to "tidy" up her room before she came home from the hospital, but things came up missing. And I know this for a fact because my husband and I had stopped there a few days earlier to pick up some stuff of mom's and when we left, we knew exactly what was left sitting on her countertop. I immediately told the person in charge (who was actually the person who told me how this employee had gone into mom's room to clean it up) and I was told that an investigation would be conducted. But every time I would see this guy and ask him about it, I would hear the same thing. Now yeah, this guy was a wonderful guy, but he was the one who told me who went into mom's room! Unfortunately, my mom passed away last May but I was still upset over this employee going into mom's room (which had to be unlocked to enter). Eventually the guy in charge told me that I was given a refund amount added to the final refund check owed to me, but that didn't happen, I couldn't find it anywhere in the paperwork. So, yes, it's a nice place but please don't leave any valuables there, no matter how much mom wants otherwise.

Top Notch Facility

The facility could be updated but it is clean Staff is wonderful My mom worked in nursing home for 30 years and she comments how well my mother in law is taken care of I haven't tasted the food, but it always smell wonderful They have many activities planned but due to RSV and COVID it's often cancelled I looked at several places and for the money it was clearly the best. There were "nicer" places and service did not seem the same. We are very happy with Commonwealth. We like that is a small facility. Makes it more personal.

Commonwealth Review

The facility was very nice. The care staff were terrible. My mom was there 17 days and had 3 Skin tears and a jammed toe and no one took ownership for anything. My mother was terrified to even let them touch her. We moved her out immediately. I would never recommend Commonwealth Senior Living at Cockeysville to others.

Look , watch & listen to your surroundings when visiting

Just that the place that is now Celebration Villa of York was horrible but maybe they are better since name change & I know I had something to do with top 3 people working there getting fired .. just to check places out & visit them before putting your loved ones anywhere.

what a wonderful place for mom, extremely happy!

Overall, I would rate it at 5. Cleanliness at 5. Friendliness at 5. Quality of care at 5. As far as food, I really can't say, I wasn't exposed to any of their meals, but considering how well everything else was, I have no doubt that their meals were good. My mom is a diabetic and they did have her on a diabetic diet. As for activities, I would rate it at 5, I know they have many activities to keep their patients "entertained", such as exercise classes, art classes, and bingo to name a few. Now as for the value, I would rate it at 4/5. Personally I thought it was kind of expensive but you know the old saying, "you get what you pay for" and this place was just fabulous. The place was one level and the rooms were quite spacious. Mom's room has hard wood floors and really nice (large) windows looking out to beautiful gardens and trees. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for an assisted living place for their family member. I should also say that there is a male nurse who runs the facility and he is truly wonderful, he really cares about his patients and goes out of his way to help in any way he can. I've even told him before that he's the best thing that ever happened to CommonWealth Assisted Living.

Do not recommend

The food was not good, the facility had difficult time keeping nurses. Always a different nurse. My moms medication wasn't alter in her last year. I was very upset with them because of this. She also got a bed sore that didn't heal. One tech was aggressive and they let her go. No I do not recommend this place.

Put your mind at ease

All the staff was very friendly and very attentive to my mom's needs and to our family. The housekeeping was excellent and my mom's Memory Care room was kept immaculate. The rest of the facility was kept immaculate, as well. My mom always had clean clothes on. If she spilled something on herself then they would change her clothes. If I had any questions at all I could contact the Director, who was also wonderful to communicate with and she was professional. The meals were quality, nutritious meal that my mom received. They even had parties with activities and our family always was invited. I would highly recommend this facility. My mom couldn't have received better care than at Commonwealth Cockeysville Memory Care unit. I am very grateful to all of them.

"Finding mom a New Home

5 stars! I absolutely love Commonwealth Senior Living, the people who work there are really great, and the nurse in charge, who happens to be a guy, [name removed] is just wonderful, he is so kind and helpful, and really seems to care about their patients, he is genuinely a fine man! The rooms are quite spacious, some with hardwood floors and some with carpeting, you can choose which one you would prefer to have for your mom (or your dad) to have. It's on the smaller side, with not too many people, plus it's all on one floor, no stairs. I chose a room with hardwood floors and it's really beautiful, a nice size room, which my mom really likes. I would definitely refer anyone to this place if they were looking for an assisted living place for their parents, I can only say good things about it.

My tour review

This community was in the running and this was my number two. There was another community that just followed up with me and showed that they cared about my loved one and it swayed me another direction. Very nice community and the pricing seemed to be a-la-cart. Location was also important for where my loved one was. The tour guide spent a lot of time with us and answered all of questions in regards to the community.

Depressing, staff was friendly enough but could not even get unoccupied rooms opened up with the keys they had. That is concerning. Kitchen where food is prepared was run down, dirty and unacceptable in my opinion. Staff member let me know they were changing over and would not be called Greenfield anymore. I did not inquire as to why but hopefully they will remodel kitchen and fix doors.

“Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see”

-Most “care managers” are paid minimum wage and have no more training to care for people than a fast food restaurant cashier. (There’s a reason they are called “care managers” instead of CNAs, and it’s because they are not certified.) -Understaffing is “hidden” by counting one person as two positions...if a care manager takes a weekend class to be a “medical technician”, then the claim can be made that there are is a “caregiver and a med tech” in the building, but it’s really one person doing two jobs, which means less care and attention for people. -Most people are doing two jobs; As of October 2018, the Designating Nurse is also the Health Care Coordinator, The Executive Director is also the Resident Care Coordinator, the Sales Director is also the Program Coordinator. There is no maintenance person and only one part-time housekeeper, so....with most people doing two jobs, does that mean most jobs are only half-done?
