We chose Fairview Estates because of the price and the attractiveness of the facility. I would tell others to shop around. Talk with residents about their experiences before deciding. I would recommend this facility.

Our Experience

High staff turnover- especially housekeeping and house managers. Facility is rather isolated not readily accessible to visitations, hospitals, public transportation, medical providers, stores, etc. Meals are repetitious and limited in quality and quantity. Most resident interaction is done at mealtime. One resident does a superb job voluntarily getting other residents to sing and and perform. Most residents have physical or mental limitations in this independent living environment.

Review for Fairview Estates

I would say it's a great place with great employees who really care. My parents picked this community over others because they liked it and they knew other residents.

My Tour Experience at Fairview Estates

This community didn't speak to me the same way. Not even close. It seemed less "alive" and vibrant. The staff was nowhere to be seen. The ambiance felt more ... stale. This isn't very exact language I realize but overall New Horizons was the first community I walked into and had that immediate positive reaction. Which was sustained throughout a very long, windy journey of signing a contract and getting my folks moved in. The staff are EVERYWHERE there and a lot of them have stayed there for a very long time. I didn't get that sense of community and commitment from the staff anywhere else I looked, Fairview included. I was ignored for about 15 minutes while the woman was on the phone. Few other people in the front office. No one asked if I needed help.

My mom loved it here - Oasis community

Lovely staff, location & families. Gardens and flowers were amazing as was the ice cream! The food left a negative impression for my mom. Overall, we've all loved it & my 9 year old wants to retire there with his parents, and grandparents - do all 3 generations :)

A great place to be

My sister chose Fairview Estates because it is strictly an independent living community. I talked at length with the sales person and they explained the aging in place procedure and that sounded good to us. The apartment sizes completely adequate for one person. The friendliness of the staff and residents really sticks out. You walk down the hallways and everybody says hello, it is a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I would absolutely recommend them to others looking.

If this is the lifestyle you want, then this is a good place to be.

Fairview Estates is a lovely place and is generally well run. Of course Covid has affected some things, but that's with every place. If this is the lifestyle you want, then this is a good place to be. The activities could use some improvement. There's a lack of, and what they do have is kind of repetitive. They need more intellectually stimulating things, like bringing in a public speaker, etc. I'm having trouble getting used to 3 meals a day in the dining room. So the value for the cost is a little low for me. The food is good, but I don't want to have to go to a dining room 3 times a day to eat. My apartment came with a "kitchenette" - a fridge, small sink, and a bit of cabinet space. There's no stove and no washer & dryer, which isn't an issue. The community isn't full, so using the laundry room hasn't been difficult. Fairview has a great location and there's a lot to like here. There are areas that could use improvement, but all in all it's a very good place.

A place for a family member that needs more attention

Supposedly it's independent living, but it seems like they have some assisted living there, mostly because they take in some therapy people for respite stays. From the few times I've been there, it's seemed very clean, which I would expect everywhere due to Covid. The staff have been good. My family member has had some dietary restrictions that they've done well, and they've taken good care of her. She's needed some transportation to doctor appointments, which is a little outside their realm, but they've provided that transportation for her. It seems there are plenty of things for her to do there. Activities were restricted for a while due to Covid but are coming back now.

Positive experience

I chose Fairview Estates because my son lives in the area. He looked it over and spoke to people he knew and it got high marks. he thought it would be a good fit. The apartment sizes here are nice and really. I think they do the best they can with the meals, it is tough to come up with things that everyone likes on the menu. It is a nice place, the rooms are nice, the dining room is good, and the staff members get an A+. I would recommend them to others who are looking.

We toured yesterday and spoke at length with [name removed] who was very helpful and honest about what might/might not work well for our family. Residents seemed happy and at a range of activity levels. We saw several gardening, others walking around, several with pets. We are still looking and sorting how to get our parents in to see and choose a place where they can live independently. WE looked at a number of apartments and configurations to see what might work best for independent living with help as needed in the future. This rating is based on one visit and not knowing any residents living there.

Excellent

We chose Fairview Estates because she was moving out of state and she needed a place that welcomed her dog and had outdoor access and she was able to get a first floor apartment. My mom was always totally satisfied with the meals here. They still had residents eating in the dining room and were offering outside activities when the weather was nice. Then they offered indoor activities socially distanced such as movies. We were extremely happy with the experience. Even though she has moved out, staff members still call in to check on her. I know it is listed as independent living, but they have health care on site that you are able to add on. We did that and it worked out wonderfully. So I would tell others that if your loved one needs a little extra assistance, don't be turned away from it. I would definitely recommend them.
