Ecumen

I toured this facility, it is very nice, but will not work for Mom and what Mom needs because they do not have a doctor assigned to the facility.

I toured this community for care. The staff was nice and the community was clean. The menu was appealing and the activities would be helpful to the residents who want to participate. This is a community that families might consider touring for the care of a loved one.

This is a good community for my mom. my mom does like the good variety of meals. The staff is always nice and friendly. I like that my mom is getting good care at a friendly and clean community. She is happy with the activities that she is participating in. We would highly recommend this community for a loved one.

i am extremely happy and I am not moving. When I walked in I told my sister this is my home. The people are smiling, it smells and feels good. The staff are very great. I got so much to do i can't keep up with the activities. I go out to get coffee and I fix most my meals and eat good food from the dining room. I have my vehicle here and it is safe. They have a senior center close by too.

My mother is doing very well here at this community. She is starting to settle in very well. I couldn't be happier with her move here. The staff is great, and they are caring for her very well. She is very happy here, and its been a positive for us here. She is being cared for very well here, and I know she is in good hands. Overall I would recommend this community it is a good place.

My husband and I were very impressed and will be taking my dad on a tour the Wednesday April 27th.

I really like the place. I don't think that it is a very good place for my friend because of his mental health needs. However, when placing someone here, I would consider it because, it is a great place. The activities are not for everyone at times, but no place is perfect.

At St. Benedict's Senior Community they were very good with working with us. We've had a few bumps in the road in the beginning trying to get her moved. But if we have ever had any questions or issues the staff are always quick to resolve it. Overall things are going really well. She is very happy at this facility and she loves the food there.

We were only there for 42 hours before mom passed away. She was the first person to stay there to just stay for hospice without being a regular resident, and they were super awesome. Brett is beyond compassionate and Kristy was extremely kind and helpful.

My mother has lived at St. Benedict's Senior Community for six years. My family feels very fortunate that St. Benedict's is a transitional facility. When my Mother moved to St. Benedict's, she lived in the independent area. We noticed changes in memory and with the guidance and encouragement from the Home Care Nurse Coordinator, she moved to assisted living and ultimately the memory care area where she now resides. She receives nursing care 24 hours per day, 7 days a week with regular hygiene care; help with attire and medication applications. Home Care keeps me abrease ot any concerns or changes my mother is experiencing. St. Benedict's offers a doctor's program [Bluestone] that allows the doctor to come to the resident right in St. Benedict's. She also receives three meals a day, which is implemented by their certified Nutritionist. The Recreation area has many activities, which helps in my Mother's cognitive stages: board games, bingo, walking group, ice cream socials and musicals to name a few. St. Benedict's has a Chapel, which is so important to my Mother. They have scheduled masses and with the help of home care aides, is able to attend. I am grateful we found this comfortable, beautiful facility for my Mother with needs.

My mother's apartment is beautiful and staff kept it immaculate. The Home Care staff meets her every need. My mother loves the food and goes to the dining room for three delicious meals a day. Mom enjoys going to movies every night in the movie theatre. Mom loves the activities....she plays cards, enjoys musical entertainment, bus outings and various crafts. Mom says living at St. Benedict's is like a "little slice of heaven". The opportunities for her spiritual care are plentiful with an on-site Chapel and Church next door. My mom could not be happier with our decision to move her to St. Benedict's.

We're very happy with how things have gone with Prairie Lodge! The facility itself is very nice looking, I like that it is bright and open feeling. I'm also very satisfied with the level of care they provide, there are always plenty of staff on hand, and they all seem friendly. They've also got great attention to detail, our loved one's socks have matched every time we've visited! She really seems to be doing well here, she is more social, more verbal, and she really enjoys the food!

We were very impressed from the moment we walked in the front door. Beautifully decorated with a warm & homey country atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. It is one level and not as large and imposing as some of the newer assisted living places. Mom seems to be adjusting well to her new home, and we couldn't be happier!

We can never thank the employees at Lakeview Commons enough for all their help and patience. Whenever there is an issue it is addressed until fixed. They bend over backwards for the residents there. We can rest easy knowing our mother is in good hands.

We toured quite a few communities during our search, but from the moment we walked in the door Lakeview Commons really stood out to us. It wasn't just a reception area, it was a comfortable social area. and I was pleased to see residents sitting around socializing. That was true throughout the community as well, it all just felt felt very relaxed and comfortable. The decor was bright and cheery, and residents were free to put up decorations of their own, pictures of grandchildren, etc. We had our search narrowed down to a few locations and we were going to let our loved one make the final decision, and she selected this one hands down! One of the biggest factors for us was that they had a nurses office that is open 24 hours a day, which provided a lot of peace of mind for my loved one. They also do a great with the food! They've also got great customer service. The first room we moved my loved one into had a noise from a pipe in the wall that bothered her, so they rounded up a few staff members and 2 hours later had her moved to a new room, at no charge to us!

I love this place! Everyone from the director on down have given 200% to see to it that my in-laws have a good transition into Lakeview Commons. They are really going out of their way to make everything work out for them. they are very kind and show genuine care. Other family members who helped move them in have commented on the "good feel" this place has and what a difference it is from the other assisted living place they were in previously. We're really grateful for everything they're doing to help mom and dad. 5

My parents moved into a beautiful 2 bedroom unit with no services initially. My Dad utilized some of the Assisted Living options briefly but soon needed to move to a studio apt. in Memory Care on a different floor. This was such a stressful time for our family and the staff and residents couldn't have been more kind, caring or helpful. They made the transition much easier for us. My Dad is doing great with the consistent care he is receiving and has settled in beautifully. Mom enjoys being able to spend time with him whenever she likes. They both have made friends with the their neighbors in both areas, and they enjoy meals and activities with them as well . People look out for each other and are very welcoming. It's so nice to know that as needs may change, there are care options under the same roof. I highly recommend Ecumen Seasons and feel blessed that my parents live here and both love their new homes!

The Ecumen employees are very friendly. The cost is very attractive compared to other facilities. The location is great as it is close by many businesses centralized at Cedar and County Rd 42. There are good activities available also. The only complaint I had was that the staff was not aware that my Mom was diabetic. She had an episode in the dining area and the Nurse was not aware. When I inquired afterwards, I found out that it was because she was not receiving any services. We have since gotten her an assessment which allows her to have a medical file on record. My advice would be to get an assessment immediately even if your parent is independent like my Mom is so they have a record on them and a starting point to compare for further assessments. One item to consider is that currently they do not accept elderly waiver. Overall, this is a great facility and my Mom enjoys living there.

The people of St. Benedict's have been helpful and friendly every step of the way, and my parents moved in yesterday.

Overall I think they do a great job here, my loved one seems very happy. The staff are all very friendly, and keep the place looking nice and clean. One thing I like in particular about this location is the layout. It's set up in a pod system where certain areas have certain caregivers, which means the residents get more individual attention and can be supervised more closely.
