Momentum Senior Living

I was on a trip to Ireland and I knew that my dad was in good hands during his respite for two weeks. This facility is extremely clean, staff is always courteous with family members and very friendly to the community.

The Vered looks like it will be a very nice facility. The office staff has been very helpful in determining our needs. Cannot rate the staff or services as the facility is not complete but from all I can tell it should be very accommodating and upscale.

Highpoint at StoneCrest is a clean, well-designed facility with good amenities. It is well-maintained and clean, but the pool needs more regular cleaning, but still attractive and swimmable. Most of the staff are great, there are always some personalities in every staff. There are some great nurses in assisted living and memory care who truly care for their residents, but also a few who seem problematic. The food was much higher quality a year ago, when my parents first moved in. The quality seems to have slipped since then, but new management took over a couple months ago and seems intent on improving the meals going forward. Excellent passionate dedicated activity coordinator who truly cares about creating engaging fun events. There is live music several times each week, crafting programs, theme/costume parties, trivia nights in the bar, etc...Value for cost a) memory care is a 5. Memory care [fee removed]/mo is more affordable than any other facility we considered for my father. and the quality of care is competent with a few excellent nurses in the staff. Value for cost for independent living is a 4. Overall, my mom is thrilled with the independent living community. for the price, [fee removed]/mo, i would expect better quality meals, on-site medical first aid for independent residents, and better maintained pool. To be fair, the independent living is around half capacity, meaning, the management is likely not yet profitable. So my hope is that once they reach 70%-80% occupancy, they will have larger budgets for food service, pool maintenance, and hopefully a first aid nurse on-duty for the independent residents. (all the nursing staff are assigned to assisted living and memory care, and are not allowed to assist independent residents.) I definitely do recommend the highpoint highly, especially to people looking for a facility which spans independent, assisted living, and memory care, allowing transitions, as necessary, without leaving the facility. One key thing i didn't mention before: when we first visited the highpoint last spring, i was struck by how happy and social all the residents seemed. In other facilities we visited, residents seemed bored, somewhat sad, and were not interacting energetically. Whereas, the highpoint community is very social with active interpersonal engagement, and overall people seem to enjoy being there. My mom loves the community, her new friends, and the social activities, entertainment, etc...My only serious concern at present is the decline in quality of food service over the past year. But that's a fairly easy aspect to improve especially as the facility increases occupancy and thus has higher budgets for resident services.

The staff and the residents at The Variel of Woodland Hills are friendly and welcoming. Housekeeping is weekly. The move in process went smoothly. They offer a variety of food choices. I would recommend this facility to others.

It's new, every room is fire safe, and the staff did an excellent job talking to [name removed], and answering all his questions.

I would say it is a great community. The staff is friendly and always willing to help residents with all their needs. The community itself is beautifully maintained and always clean. Lots of activities for everyone to join in and fun.

We picked this community because of the location, amenities, and the fact that it was a new and beautiful facility. Everyone was extremely friendly, flexible, accommodating, and clearly knowledgeable and competent.

Everyone is very friendly. They are short-staffed right now, so some things take longer than they should. The amenities offered are very good, and in line with a lot of what we saw at other places. This seems to be a very active community in terms of resident engagement. The apartments are a good size. Some of the 1 bedrooms would be small for a couple, but they do have larger 1 bedrooms and a few 2 bedroom. It is a very friendly facility. Both staff and residents.

We would recommend. We picked this community, because it was new, modern, clean, secure, they had good food and an apartment was available. Facilities are modern and clean. Staff is friendly. Food is good. The building is secure.

I moved to the Carrington to lessen the burden of home ownership and enjoy a more active lifestyle. My experience has been very positive. The community is bright and cheerful, the other residents and staff are warm and welcoming and there is an abundance of activities everyday. The food has been very good with a lot of variety and two choices of where you can dine. I am very happy that I chose the Carrington after visiting over 10 different facilities.

Friendly, helpful and professional staff. Very responsive nursing. Some management are slow to resolve such as ongoing room phone issues. Good value. Would recommend without hesitation.

We have been very happy with Highpoint at StoneCrest since our friend moved in. We had checked out other communities in the area and Highpoint has consistently stayed at number 1 on our list. If we know someone who is looking for a place for themselves or their loved ones, we always recommend this community first.

Overall we have had a good experience. The transition for my brother was much more difficult than we imagined and he ended up moving to assisted living after only 2.5 months. In hindsight I wish he had made the move to the retirement community sooner. That said, I would tell folks to expect that the transition might be difficult and require patience to navigate.

My loved one likes the food, it was excellent. It's a great place. This community, met all requirements. My loved is doing very well, and they could not have been more responsive and caring afterwards. The staff was completely helpful. The people in the dining room were the most accomodating. The people were friendly and the nurses were very responsive and knowlegdeable. Everything was clean. It's very inexpensive. I would recommend to other families.

We had a very positive tour experience with The Variel at Woodland Hills. We actually toured it before it officially opened, so we did not get to try the food or anything like that. They had a pool, a bar downstairs and a lot of great amenities offered, but my mom would not use all of them. The units were extremely nice. I left it up to her and she was not a fan of the area. She wanted to be closer to medical facilities and businesses. We put a deposit down but because of her thoughts we ended up pulling it.

Hightpoint at StoneCrest was a very nice facility. It was brand new, and I liked it very much. l liked the people who were working there. I liked the room set-up. It was just so new that there were only 4-5 memory care patients at the time, so there was less opportunity for interaction with other residents for our loved one. But that was a few months ago and will be changing as the facility ramps up. I thought it was a very nice facility!

The Carrington at Lincolnwood is a newer facility so right when you walk in it feels like an apartment building you would find downtown. It is open, the staff are very welcoming and it is just very inviting. The residents living there seem very comfortable and agree that it has that homier feel to it. It is a lot of money but compared to other places in the area that offer the same thing but for more, the value here is good. The food we think right now is okay, however we do understand they are managing all the covid stuff and stuffing. They do have activities going on.

The Carrington at Lincolnwood is absolutely beautiful. It is new and clean and they have a ton of amenities provided for residents. Our loved one needed a higher level of care and would not have been able to use those amenities which is why we kept looking.

The food is good but sometimes with the service they get the orders wrong and the meals have to be redone. However, our loved ones absolutely love The Carrington, they have high ceilings and nice wide hallways. The apartments have nice big windows that brings in a lot of bright and natural light. Also, every time we go to visit everyone is out of their rooms, mingling and playing games which we really like to see.

The service in the dining room has been relatively poor due to not enough staff. The community has done great at the reopening of the community and dining room. They did a great job at keeping the residents and staff safe during COVID. They are occasionally running low on supplies for nursing care.
