Excellent rapport with residents. An exceptionally friendly community. Apartments a little small and ammenities are limited. On-site dining is extremely slow. The people make the difference and I would recommend looking at it.

Was given a tour and they were quite cordial. Overall impression is that it is "institutional", but adequate

Apartment only. No services. Rate affordable. Has section 8.

Meals; too many services

Seemed to have an older feel, like Grandma's house. Not as bright. Less grounds available. Not much storage space in rooms or the outside storage. Small 'patio' for each room, just concrete slab and small, no fence.

Facilities dated, did not feel right for our purposes, but may be good for others.

I like this one.

mom does not want to live this far away from us but I want to see it

People were very nice however the apts seemed dated and a little dingy. Seemed expensive for the size of what you get. Building seemed a bit in disrepair.

1-bedroom - $1,635 includes transportation, utilities, three meals.

Relatively quiet, if you live by the office area. Near the laundry/picnic area, there are occasionally homeless, drugged out people loitering in the laundry rooms and on the grounds also stealing private property. No security on the grounds. Senior complex? I am not so sure anymore. We have a woman, her dog, her boyfriend, her son, who likes to beat on women, her son's girl and their baby all living in the smallest apartment, since last [date removed]. Otherwise, it is quite nice. Nice neighbors!! You decide.

I saw The Clairmont while looking at places for my loved one, and I thought it was a little better than some places we’d looked at, but I thought it just didn’t have that homey feel. We were looking for something homey.

I did not care for this community when touring it. As soon as you entered you got it with an odor of fried food.The staff was friendly and nice. I did not care for the way the community was laid out it felt very confining almost institutionalized.

Central Parke is a beautifully kept facility and shows well on a visitor tour. Of course, this means what you see during a tour may be different than what you experience as a resident. This is truly independent living as residents are not watched and caregivers are not spread out throughout the facility. Nurses will make sure meds are taken. Housekeeping needs improvement as laundry, sheets, room cleaning, and toiletry stocking is not consistent. The published activities calendar is more marketing than accurate, but there are a few things for residents to do each weekday. After 5pm weekdays and most weekends, its rather quiet with little going on. Meals are average at best and there are a couple small snacks through the day. No easy access to hydration. Caregivers seem to lack interest in the residents. While they market how “active and engaged” residents will be, there is a lot of down time. For those that can go out, there is usually a short outing a couple times a month. The outside resident courtyard, while accessible, is not used much. If you have a family member at Central Parke, but sure to stay active in their care.

The Activities Director was great and several of the care givers were really good. I liked the management folks as well, but I don't think they were very good at managing the care.

When we have had different concerns and have contacted management, it has taken multiple emails and calls to get them to respond. Then the concerns we not addressed and actually minimized. We routinely have to ask them to clean my mom's apartment. Apparently, residents are only allowed to use the laundry on whatever floor they reside on and when there are issues with the laundry working properly, the resident is just expected to wait until it is repaired versus being allowed to use laundry on another floor. And it is impossible to get consistent care and communication with the the other service providers that are onsite- like pt Transportation is supposed to be available, but the driver is rarely available. There is also no social worker onsite to help with getting additional services nor is the staff educated on the behaviors and symptoms associated with different diagnoses. My mom is experiencing some psychiatric symptoms and the staff is enabling some unsafe behaviors and has discounted our concerns. There have been multiple times where mom has signed up to go on a trip and it gets canceled at the last minute. Mom is happy and enjoys it- but from a family/caregiver perspective, they have been a nightmare to deal with and we are trying to figure out how to move her without traumatizing her

Not a nice place [name removed] fell 6 times in 2 weeks. All they did was pick him up afterwards. No effort to prevent future falls.They demanded a $[removed] deposit, then kicked him out in a.very short time. They also lost several items of his, and did not return them.

I have lived at the Summerfield eststea for independent living for eiGHT YEARs. WHEN I MOVED IN IT WAS VERY NICE. However since then my rent has gone up several hundred dollars and service has diminished significantly. Flowers at entrance have disappeared, no place mats on tables. Cotton napkins are gone , food is fair to poor, staff is fair but service is very minimal and slow. I would have to give my opinion a 2 on a scale of 1/5. And transportation is very limited if at all and extremely unavailable .

My loved one was previously a resident at Hammond Glen Retirement Community. She was a resident at this facility for several years and had been very happy there. However, we felt forced out by management due to a monthly rent increase that was over $[removed] that they arbitrarily were going to levy on my loved one following a hospitalization and rehab stay. My loved one had essentially returned to her previous level of self-care. They failed to do their own assessment of her, instead they exaggerated her level of need to justify the increase in charge. We knew of another resident that had the same experience at the same time. Ultimately, we moved my loved one out of Hammond Glen. She went into hospice one month later. She was depressed and demoralized by the experience, which I believe hastened her death.

During the tour the community seemed empty, as we didn't see any residents and very few staff members. We also didn't get to see the entire community. The pricing seemed more expensive than we wanted.
