Overall nice senior living option

Many of the main traffic areas and elevators are in need of flooring and paint. She enjoys the food. Her room is nice. It had been newly remodeled. She likes playing bingo. Staff is nice. The staff told them they can't say grace because it slows down the meal service. Some of the rooms we looked at are tiny and in need of updates.

Review for Rainbow Retirement and Assisted Living

The staff care very deeply for their residents. My brother loved living there; made many friends, liked the meals, and enjoyed having staff and residents visit his room. The staff was great about keeping him and his room clean, maintaining his meds, and notifying me of any concerns about his health.

Steal and lie

They stole my grandpa's spending money that the payee brought to them for them to spend. My grandpa never left the place one time but [name removed] said she gave him money every week after she was told not to, but he doesn't have anything to show for [price removed]. She adjusted the rental agreement to say they could charge him [price removed] a month when we where told [price removed] for non-medicaid people and if he had medicaid then [price removed]. Then after a year raised the rent to [price removed] but never told us. After he had a bad day he was taken to hospital and doc ask us what kind of blood thinner he was on and he not on them. Next day [name removed] kicks him out and he had to sit hospital for 2 weeks. No one even cared if he was dead or alive. Food is gross and cold.

Crooks

I brought my brother to the Rainbow a few weeks ago. He said that after the staff found out he owned a house they're pressuring him into selling it. Can they do that? Do I need to get him a lawyer? And the place is crawling with bedbugs and cigarette smells. I just want to know what the purpose of him having to sell his house without informing anyone else about it seems a little sketchy, to say the least.

A great place for mom

I placed my mother in law at the Rainbow Senior Living and she loved it. The administration helped fill out all her proper paperwork to help set her up with medications, and medicaid. The meals provided were very plentiful and tasted great. We had dinner with her on several occasions. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I am so glad we found her a place when needed

Great place

I placed my mother in law at the Rainbow. We loved it. That helped her with her Medicare paperwork and medications. She loved the meals served everyday. The staff was very friendly and always made sure to keep us informed every step of the way.

Administration, staffing, communication issues

Administration is lacking guidance and direction with staffing shortages. Communication with Administrative Director never produced positive outcomes or solutions to family requests. Even after several attempts.

Fake Compassion

They lied at every turn, claimed they could provide the care, then said they couldn't and wanted the elder person gone. Evicted them, and now they claim they have no paper work showing they were even there. Had to call the Police to get their personal belongings.
