My loved one is currently a resident at Maple Ridge Memory Care. The move in and acclimation was a smooth process. I would recommend this facility to others.

Maple Ridge Memory Care

Set among the atmospheric Green Mountain Range just outside of Burlington, Vermont, Maple Ridge Memory Care offers a charming, upscale environment for your loved ones. Flanked by the Essex Village Forest and a golf course, this large, new facility brings real mountain luxury to loved ones with Alzheimer's and other types of dementia.

Families and residents can choose the right option from a variety of floor plans, including a companion suite with a shared bath, a one-bedroom apartment, and a private two-bedroom apartment. All apartments are outfitted with modern comforts and design touches, which help make the transition to a new place easier. Most residents feel right at home in their beautiful surroundings.

Maple Ridge Memory Care offers its AspireCare service to residents. This includes a whole host of activities and schedules to help seniors with dementia aspire to live full, engaged lives. After a nutritious breakfast, a day may begin with music therapy involving popular songs from the resident’s youth and then move into a lesson on how candy is mass produced. Then, residents can do seated aerobics or Tai Chi in the fitness center. Days often end with armchair travel, a game, or a movie.

Only for basic supervision

Very clean place - looks awesome... but very very short staffed on the regular and the advertised menu is never what they really get.. Checks every 2 hrs. at night were not being done. :( We pulled her from Maple Ridge due to the lack of proper care. The place is ok for folks that need just basic supervision... nothing really more than that.

DO NOT MOVE YOUR LOVED ONE HERE

It is astounding how there are "good reviews" on here, and I wouldn't put it past the management team to have paid for them. Where do I begin? Everything looks great on the outside but the behind the scenes is total deceit. Let start that the ED is not a nurse, yet takes call for the med techs, how is this legal? Their care plans generic and well the staff doesn't even follow those. I was lied to by the Resident Care Director and given false documents. Now that my loved one has passed I am finally comfortable speaking about it in fear of retaliation to my loved one. THE STATE IS IN THERE CONSTANTLY!!!! Have you read there decencies online? Its public knowledge. The memory care is the saddest not knowing if your loved one actually got care, because they just put different clothes on them. How can you make up months and weeks of falsified documents???? Yet people still keep placing there loved ones here because its less expensive then those around. We need more affordable places.

Do Not Place a Loved One Here

They are understaffed! My dad was attacked by another patient because staff was not watching either patient even though they knew that patient could be violent. My dad fell 3 times, one which caused a brain bleed. The staff needs more training on how to deal with people suffering from dementia.

Highly Recommended

Every single thing about Maple Ridge Memory Care is absolutely great! All of the staff have always been helpful and friendly. So kind to my sister, holding her hand, checking in on her if she was in her room. Her laundry was always done when I was there. Sheets on her bed were always clean. Communication with the family is very good. [Name removed] and the nurses were always willing to meet and discuss any questions and will let you know if they are concerned about anything. The move in process was seamless. They even provided furniture and bought a new dresser when the one they had didn't fit. I cannot praise the facility and the staff highly enough. I would highly recommend it to anyone considering housing a loved one there.

Do not send your loved one here

We really wanted Maple Ridge to work. Unfortunately, dad went over a month without someone attempting a shower, his teeth were not brushed for weeks & there is no documentation of refusal. They do not feed him in a manner he can eat. His documents indicate we paid for services that he never received on a daily basis. At least part of the documents were falsified. Despite feedback to everyone, things just got worse. Read the licensing report from [date removed]. It gives a sense of what is happening. Don’t send your loved one here.

my review of Maple Ridge Memory Care

A lot of the caregivers are young and inexperienced. The have some issues with communications we are not kept in the loop and it seems like the caregivers are not aware of changes. Based on my experience I would not recommend this community to others.

Make Sure You Thoroughly Know Everyone and Everything in the Community, and Push Them to Be Upfront with You

I wasn't happy with my loved one's room due to us having to ask to have their room cleaned on occasion when we went to visit. Everyone was friendly. There were some changes that happened in the community. There were some information that we weren't told about and it caught us off guard. We found out that the prescriptions for my loved one had to go through the community and it was costing us five times the amount, if we had gotten them a different way. We did stop the prescriptions. The activities director was very good, in my opinion.

MY place for mom

My mother has been there since they opened as Spring Village. I have seen many changes, some good and some worrisome. Most of the worry has been frequent changes in staff and executive directors. However, new startups needing change, is quite normal. So my rating is 5 star. They have wonderful care and wonderful caregivers. My mother seems very content and loves the active things to do all day long. If you are thinking of placing a parent in memory care start with Maple Ridge.

Work in Progress

It is still a work in progress for my mother with her move to this community. She is still adjusting, but she is doing okay. It has been an interesting process. They do a have a nice staff at this facility. They are kind when I come to visit her. This is a new facility so there still much to be desire ,as far as the appearance. However they do a good job with keeping her room, and the facility well maintained. They do provide nice meals, and have nice meals available for residents. I still need some more time before recommending this community, we are still in adjustment process.

Good care!

Mom is doing great and is a lot happier since moving into this community. The staff are attentive to her needs. The food is good and they keep the community clean. This is a brand new community that is reasonable priced and I would recommend it.
