Review for Ella Springs Senior Living Community

Food quality and service is not great. Most of the care givers, front desk, management are great. Issues are addressed quickly and effectively. Nurse Practitioner is great and communicates well.

I liked that it is only one level in one big circle, so even if they get lost, they'll get to their apartment at some point.

Good Memory Care Facility

The staff keeps the residents occupied during the day with various activities in the Memory Care unit. There are some incredible caregivers that I have had the pleasure of getting to know and they keep me updated on how my dad did during the day. My family visits daily, so we know the staff well. The food is good as well. I feel like they genuinely care about my loved one. No place is perfect but they do a good job.

Our Family's Experience

Management has been responsive and attentive. We live in another city from our loved one so can only visit occasionally. He appears happy, clean, more social and it seems to be a good fit. Also, the Administrator, [name removed], has been there the entire time (1 year now) and she is very approachable and responsive.

Exemplary facility

In our experience. Everybody went above and beyond for my daddy. My dad was only there for 9 weeks before he passed away. He loved it there. He always told us how much he loved it there. The staff were always tentative to my dad and his needs.

Excellent results.

I like Ella Springs they are doing a great job taking care of my wife and her needs. Over all they are very accommodating and the Memory care staff is excellent. They also have monthly meetings to help those who are struggling with their situation related to their loved one having to be there.

A happy place to be

I've been here over a year and I have so much fun here. I stay busy during the day and they come and get me and take me to the dining room and to all the great activities and events. The guy that runs the activities comes and gets me for all the stuff going on. He really cares about us residents. The staff is very good too. They help me out all day. I really enjoy it here at Ella Springs. Oh, and the food is great!

Happy Resident

I've been at Ella Springs Senior Living for about 6 months now. I love everything about it here. They really feed us well there, and the food is very good. The Activities Director comes and personally gets me every hour for all the events. He is my friend, and I really like him. He cares about all the residents and the staff members. I heard it was privately owned, so they let the employees do the things we want to do, not the company. The caregivers really help us residents, and are very friendly. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Very Nice Community

I'm 90 years old and I really needed a place that makes me feel comfortable. I really enjoy my days here at Ella Springs. They keep us very busy each day. I really like the Activity Director, he reminds us every hour what we are doing. They really care about the people here and that means a lot to me. I think they are pretty full when it comes to vacancy. I understand that they are one of the top communities in Texas from what I heard. I love this place.

A fantastic Senior Living Community

I have really enjoyed my time here. I have really started to grow since I moved in. They make me feel good about myself after my stroke. The Activity Director comes and reminds me of what we are doing every hour. They have so much going on each day of the week. The food is very good also. The care staff really does care about us here. I love this place.

Amazing community that goes above and beyond

Amazing Community with so many great residents and staff. Brett truly cares about getting the residents engaged, making sure they have a great time, and creating a family like atmosphere. [name removed] does pizza day with the residents every month, and the residents absolutely love it, not to mention it being some of the best pizza out there. I highly recommend checking this place out.

Staff and Administration are helpful

Response time to my mom's needs was #1 along with cleanliness. Their goal is responding within 5min. They track that daily. Activities are plentiful and my mom at 94.5 yrs does it all. Staff and administration have been helpful and communicate with me on my mom's needs and any issues to keep her safe, well and active. We have learned from each other. It goes both ways. I'm happy with Ella Springs for my mom.

Ella Springs Senior Living is a great place to live

Ella Springs has been very good to me for years now. They have so much to offer everyone every day here. I really don't do many of the activities except for church and the activities directors guitar playing. I walk the community and exercise on my own. It's a great p[lace to walk because you can't get lost because it's one big circle. The staff is very friendly to us residents every day. The food is very good as well.

Ella Springs Senior Living is a fantastic community

I've been here at Ella Springs Senior Living for a couple of years now and they have really treated me very good. The caregivers do a great job and are very friendly. They take me to all the activities and to all the meals. I require quite a bit of care and they really do a great job. The Activities Director does so much for us residents there. Brett really cares about his residents and it really shows with all the stuff we have going on each month. I recommend Ella Springs Senior Living.

Good facility for respite care that won't break your wallet

My loved ones room is not very clean every time we have come to visit. Some of the staff are great but some are just okay. There is not enough staff. Also my loved ones first night, they fell while using the toilet and told me that staff that attended to him was very rough when handling him. The cost is great because it's one of the lowest in the area. I would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

I would recommend Ella Springs!

Everyone at Ella Springs is very friendly. It seems like the staff really cares about the residents there. My mom is in memory care and feels very comfortable and safe. She says the food is very good and so do the other residents. [name removed] was the director of memory care but just left the facility for a new opportunity. He had been there five years and was very good engaging with the memory care residents. One complaint is that some of my mom's clothes have gone missing and I see her wearing other people's clothes. Not a huge deal to me though. I know this is common. Also, the actual care (bathing, communicating issues like toe nails needing to be trimmed, making sure she has her socks on) could be a little better but they really don't provide nursing care there so I can understand. I recommend this facility. They have fun activities for all the residents and the facility is really clean.
