Excellent, warm and welcoming facility

Since my sister did not move into The Cambridge, my experience with the services are limited to what I witnessed on the tour. But I would have to say that I would rate all of the listed items as a 4. My experience with Cambridge was excellent. The gentleman that was working with me on my sister's behalf was extremely helpful. He truly went above and beyond the call of duty. The facility was warm, welcoming, clean - it checked all the boxes. I attempted numerous times to convince my sister that The Cambridge was a perfect living situation for her, especially since Phoenix Home Health was on the property. Unfortunately, we could not persuade her to accept the available apartment. Needless to say, she is still in the LTC facility she was in at the time. She ultimately regrets having not taken the opportunity to live at The Cambridge, but I exhausted all my time, energy and patience on the matter.

Good place to live in a fun, friendly facility.

From what I have seen visiting my mom there I would have to give a 4 to everything. I don't know much about the food part but mom says most of the time food is good. She isn't into all of the mixing vegetables together. She has enjoyed her staying there. Staff is friendly and willing to help however they can. Rooms are perfectly sized for a single person to live comfortably. Plenty of room.

Needs for improvement

What The Cambridge community could improve on - Properly communicating to the residents about rent increases. Stop overcharging residents for their rent without communicating first. Provide shuttle service every day of the week. As they are paying for the service through their rent and should be provided upon request. Low sodium menu. Residents can add salt as needed. Management to be more available to visit about concerns from family members. The administration has failed to be attentive to the mouse infestation there. I have reported this to Dept Of Sr Services FYI.

The Cambridge Senior Living review

The facility itself showed signs of aging but all rooms were/are undergoing a complete renovation ( not sure status). Mom moved out before her room was revamped so not sure what it's like now. The managers I typically dealt with were all nice and helpful. Mom particularly complimented the wait staff in the dining room. She had issues with housekeeping (weeks would go by without a cleaning) but hopefully those things have been resolved. I should say mom moved out because she wanted more space and wanted to live more independently (she's in a duplex in a 55+ community now, but also has access to services of the independent living facility if needed)

Cambridge review

They are short staffed, the food is bad, and the once a week apartment cleaning is more like once every 6 months I moved my mother to [facility name removed] about 6 months ago.

Cambridge Review

Staff is very un friendly. Food is low quality. Portions are small. Just because they are seniors doesn't mean they have to watch their weight. Some still have their teeth. Some of the services that were offered have not been provided.

Review for Holiday The Cambridge

I would highly recommend The Cambridge. Staff is very caring and responsive. They take a personal interest in the residents. There are ample opportunities for residents to be involved in activities if they wish.

My loved one is currently a resident at Holiday The Cambridge and most everything has been great for him so far. As far as I can tell, it is a very nice facility for the money. I couldn't find any other place as nice for the same price. Based on the experience, I would recommend Holiday The Cambridge to others.

The staff are very friendly and genuinely care about the residents. They are very helpful and responsive to all of my questions. They assigned another resident to be an 'ambassador' to show my mom around when she first moved in, which was super helpful. An area of improvement would be meals, but they just hired a new chef, so I'm hopeful that things will get better. I would definitely recommend Cambridge for other families.

The Cambridge is overall a good choice.

Mixed reviews on the food. Not always good, and usually not meals that are typical of south Missouri. The menu is difficult to understand with crazy names and strange combinations. The staff are exceptionally kind and personable. They know the names of all the residents and usually remember breakfast requests without asking. That's pretty impressive.

Overall, it's a great community

[name removed] , that I worked with was awesome! He connected so well with my cousin, it was a blessing. Meals for the most part, are ok. But there have been a few meals that are less than great. Overall, the Cambridge has been great! My cousin had been able to keep her independence and I am happy that there are services available should she need them.

caring staff, positive experience, would recommend

The home care worker (with [name removed]) who works at several senior facilities in the area stated that the Cambridge might not be the best in some aspects, but she thought the Cambridge staff was the best at generally caring about their residents. I agree.

Great community!!

A great place that my mom really enjoys. She has made many new friends and love all the things to do. She has told me several times and I have seen it myself, that the staff goes above and beyond. I can’t image having found something better.

Review for Holiday The Cambridge

We picked this community because of the price. Towels and sheets are supposed to be changed once a week and someone is supposed to vacuum once week that does not happen. They also charge to deliver meas to your room.

Nice community with areas of improvement.

They have not cleaned her apartment unless I questioned when there would be there. There has been a problem since she moved it. Once they are there they do a good job. Trash seems to always be over flowing. Friendly enough but usually the person you need to discuss a problem is not there ie, housekeeping, billing, manager off Friday, Saturday and come in on Sunday afternoon. Every one seems too busy and tell residents will get to it as soon as they can and it may not happen. The food is usually dry because they have been plated wait to serve. Our loved one has not used the activities. I don't feel the quality is the same as when she lived there before. I have started researching other facilities. Her 3 months will be up at the end of October. Mom likes her apartment, feels secure, people nice.

Recommend Without Reservation

We picked this community for numerous things...first the staff was extremely friendly and attentive to residents. The facility is warm and welcoming. The apartments are very nice. The sales staff were not typical "sales staff". They were very informative and cared about helping us make a good decision that would be in my mom's best interest not just make the sale.
