Gable Pines assisted living

All the carpeting was just replaced with new carpet or luxury vinyl plank flooring. It looks very nice and welcoming. The dining options are varied each month and the food is very good. There are many activities each week and a good variety. Some of the staff are excellent and others get by doing the bare minimum. Just like any other place. Any issue that I've brought up has been attended to right away. It's a nice place for a loved one.

Would recommend

Ask all of your questions and listen carefully to the answers. Not every place is suited to your loved one's needs. It's very difficult selecting senior living for a loved one, especially if their health is declining rapidly. Working with a great place like Gable Pines made this transition easier for our loved one and the rest of the family.

Great place for Mom

The staff is very friendly & helpful! The facility is always very clean. There are choices of mealtimes & various food choices at mealtimes. If they are serving something you don't like, you can ask for something different. The apartments are really nice. My Mom's apartment is very comfortable , bright & airy. Mom has really blossomed since she moved in and we feel like she is in good hands, so we don't have to worry about her being alone anymore!

Review for Gable Pines

I love the view in the back. I like to watch the wild life, deer, turkeys, ducks. In front you see the parking Lot. If you like to cook some apartments have stoves. If you drive keep you car in the underground garage.

Review for Gable Pines

The food was great, the house cleaning was acceptable, and the staff and residents were friendly and welcoming. My husband didn’t participate in many activities but there were a lot of options and opportunities available. Using the portal to communicate with nursing staff worked very well and they always responded quickly to any concerns I had. My husband needed minimal care and was content living there, but after he was hospitalized and needed more care, things became more difficult and they couldn't accommodate his needs.

Very caring and warm environment

An excellent facility overall at a reasonable. cost. The staff is very friendly and caring. There are many nice field trips, games, and good musical entertainment for people to attend. The best attributes of Gable Pines are that the food is excellent, the common rooms are large, well designed, extremely clean and welcoming with lovely outside grounds, and the staff is helpful and caring. Balconies are nice & outside grounds are adjacent to local neighborhoods. Window views are green and lovely. There is a nice walking path, lots of birds and trees, and a small pond. Downsides are that currently there is not enough cleaning staff for individual apartments (they are short-staffed right now) and I think there could be a better “buddy system” for the first week when a resident moves in. Overall, I would recommend this facility, although the residents seem to be skewed to ages 88-100+. The movers are great, underground parking & storage is good, and changes to the apartments allowed!

Well run professional facility

As mom is in independent living, she is not receiving any care from the facility. Staff has been responsive to maintenance needs. I don't eat at the dining room but mom seems to enjoy the food. I believe the sizes of apartments vary, amenities offered are good, mom is battling cognitive decline and sadly doesn't participate in many of the activities.

I loved this place. I would rate them at a 5 for everything. The food was good. There were many friendly faces. Because they have Wi-Fi in every room you can have a camera in the room.

Review for Gable Pines

What I can say from personal interactions is that the care givers who have the most contact with the clients are, by and large, very thoughtful and kind. The great majority of them were, it seemed, genuinely concerned about their clients physical and mental welfare. There certainly were exceptions to this general observation but not to the degree that I would advise someone to think twice before a loved one were to reside there.

We were well informed

Everyone who showed us the apartment the three times we went was very knowledgeable. The sales team and contract team and nurse were all great helping us work through the meetings and sit downs. The apartment was very spacious and had plenty of room for furniture and accessories.

I'm pleased overall, some things could have been better

The staff are great, friendly have been helpful. However they don't have a lot of staff so there's a lot of things that haven't happened for my dad that we've had to talk to them about quite a few times so, communication. According to my dad, the food it's OK but always cold . When we got him moved in I thought he would have some sort of orientation to the facility and he should have but he didn't so he didn't know what he was getting for his money and that took a good month and a half to figure that out where he was satisfied with the answer, he's happy there, but he says it's all show behind the scenes doesn't run that smoothly I guess.

Review for Gable Pines

We picked this community, because they had availability for the kind of apt my Mom wanted (1 bdrm plus den), the open feel of the apt, the friendliness of the staff, the programs available: DR on staff, sewing group, Bible Study group, Church service to name a few things. The DR has stopped by to check on my Mom. She has been able to transfer her meds to the pharmacy downstairs & they deliver her prescriptions. That is such a blessing! A Place For Mom" made this whole thing possible for my Mom & she has blossomed at Gable Pines!!

A perfect fit

The staff has been extremely friendly, professional and helpful and even worked with us when the rent was a little out of our price range. The residents are welcoming and friendly, there are numerous activities and outings, and the food is fabulous. The rent includes 3 meals a day and a land-line and safety pendant if desired. The Bluestone doctor obviously enjoys working with seniors and takes her time during visits. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gable Pines to anyone looking for an Assisted Living facility.

Very accommodating

We have only been at the facility for a few months, but my parents seem to like it. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. At first it was difficult to determine who to ask about certain things, but everyone tried to help. The meals are good and have a variety to chose from.

We found essentially what we were looking for here.

My wife, being a former interior designer, was very concerned to find an apartment layout that she liked and a building with a warm welcoming decor. Gable Pines was a good fit. Her place has a nice north-facing outdoor balcony, where she can sit and enjoy the fresh air, and a den where she has room to work on projects that she loves. The hallways are wide with recessed doorways and tastefully colorful wall colors. There are also numerous paintings, flower arrangements, other decorative touches. It does not at all have the feeling of a nursing home, or even of most apartment buildings that I have been in. The thing that struck me most when first looking at my wife’s place, and the building in general, was how clean it was. There weren’t the usual sloppy caulking jobs, or windows that wouldn’t slide, etc. And when we have had issues, the maintenance people have addressed them promptly.

My experience with moving into Gabel Pines has been a positive experience.

Gabel Pines like most business has experienced difficulties in keeping its staff fully filled but has done a good job in providing good services. I think if fully staffed I think it would be excellent service.
