I have lived at Morada Quintessence for about a year now. I wasn't happy about the move at first, but i have made great friends since living here. The staff is always kind and helpful, even managers. I feel safe and haven't had a single issue since living here.

My dad was struggling living at home since mom passed away, and it was time to relocate to assisted living. We had originally liked Quintessence since its a single story community, but we fell in love after meeting the staff. They all made us feel at ease, and since dad has moved in he has been thriving. This has been the best decision for our father and we couldn't be happier.

My mother was struggling at home. She had a bad fall that landed her in rehab and her doctor recommended assisted living. We were recommended Morada Quintessence by our neighbor as his wife had lived there before she passed, and he had nothing but great things to say. Mom was reluctant about the move but in the few months she has been in the community she is gaining weight, being more active, and is making friends. The team at Quintessence cares about their residents and it shows.

The care team is always helpful and happy. I have been very pleased with the community. Wish there were better options with dinner sides and they could make the plating a little more appealing for being "restaurant style" But other than that im very happy being a resident at this community. i made friends quickly and feel very safe.

My Dad had been struggling at his last community and he needed a change. We were told to check out Morada and we immediately fell in love with the building. Since dad has been at Quintessence his health is improving, he is eating again, and we dont have to worry like we did before. Thank you to the amazing team at morada we are so happy.

My mom had a fall before the holidays and after her stay in rehab, she was nervous about relocating to assisted living. But from her first day at Quintessence, she felt like this was her home. She is getting healthier and stronger every day, she is much more social, and is finally putting on weight. The staff is helpful and always professional. My family is thrilled with the decision to move mom into quintessence.

My father was a resident of Quintessence before his recent passing, and everything about the community exceeded our expectations. [name removed] was incredibly helpful and thorough during the move in process. She really helped make the transition not only easier for my dad, but for my family as well. [name removed] and the care team are exceptional. My father was always well cared for, and he always commented on how kind the caregivers were. I highly recommend Morada Quintessence Assisted Living.

We picked them because of the availability of a room and what was presented to us(siblings) for care and what was offered. Which turned out to be horrible! Its my understanding they are under new management! I pray they are. We were there everyday with Dad, brought him food, kept him clean. He had hospice in the end....My Dad deserved better....

My parents resided at Morada Quintessence for several years. They were always well cared for, and both made lots of friends. After dad passed away, the staff made sure that mom stayed active. The care team is always pleasant and helpful. Management is very involved and is always available to assist. As my parents care increased and their diets changed, the meals were always chopped and made easier for them to eat by themselves. The building always did a great job with events for Mothers Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas. We always looked forward to bringing the grandkids to visit too. Thank you Quintessence for everything you did for my parents.

I was hesitant to write a review too soon, incase things should have changed but my Dad has been here for a while and the care is exceptional. My dad can be difficult, but the staff are always encouraging and he has nothing but great things to say. Everyone is so helpful and nice. I have never had a bad encounter with anyone at this community. He does wish there was a gym, but other than that it's a great safe place for my dad to call home.

My mom was apprehensive of moving to an assisted living community from living in her own home for the last 45 years. But it was time, she wasn't getting out anymore and had hurt herself in the bathroom a few times. Since moving to Quintessence, mom has been more social and active, and we are seeing a big change in her demeaner. She is happy and always wanting to go to meals and Bingo. The staff is always available with a smile to help.

Nice floor plan to the apartment and the building. Easy access. Mom seems happy there. Not enough fresh foods. Too large of servings, maybe offer 1/2 portions. It would be nice to have more music.

I’m a resident at Q and I’ve been very happy with the services. Staff are always pleasant and help residents even with the smallest requests. We have had some fun outings recently and hope for more. I feel safe and taken care of.

Mom and dad were slowing down and refusing to get help, but after a few weeks at Quintessence they are doing amazing. They are making friends and inviting their old neighbors over for cards and happy hour. We finally feel safe knowing there is help 24 hrs a day.

Great staff, everyone is happy to help. Food is good and we always have something fun to do. I have made a lot of new friends. I havent had any bad experiences since living here. I was struggling living at home but now they handle all of my laundry, cleaning, and medication so I can live comfortably.

My Mother has been a resident for the last 2 months and we are thrilled with her decisions to relocate. We no longer fear her falling alone at home or not eating. She has made friends and loves Bingo and Art class. I only wish the room was slightly larger but other than that we love it there.

WARNING!! DO NOT LEAVE YOUR LOVED ONES HERE! If I could give this place half a star I would! This place not only has high turn over. BUT they take advantage of their residents! The website CLAIMS that it's one of the best places, do not read those fake reviews, read these real ones. They will try and tell you this is not true but I have all the proof! It is also impossible to get ahold of any corporate office or higher ups. This place has taken rent out twice in one month, that is 10k in one month and they would have gotten away with it if my grandmother didn't have people watching her account. They had two different stories as to why and when they were called out on it they stopped communicating. They had no remorse. These people would leave her on the toilet for 30 min to an hour at a time, skip showers and tell her that she needed to wheel herself to lunch and dinner. Trying to tell her she needed to hnegelp them help her, mind you she has a bad shoulder and a crippled foot!! They eve

My mother was showing signs of needing more help, and could no longer live alone. She was not happy with the idea of moving to an Assisted Living community, but she has been at Quintessence for a few months now and she is THRIVING!!! She made friends almost immediately, she is gaining weight finally, and is more active than she has been in years. I wish we had made the move sooner. The care staff, the management everyone has been amazing. Their rates are the most affordable in the east side and we dont have to worry about increases based off of moms care.

I rate the very best for all of these categories that our listed. Morada Quintessence is an excellent place. Based on the experience we have had so far we would by all means recommend the community to other families and in fact already have.
