New Perspective Senior Living

I have been working at New Perspective North Shore for over a year now. I have loved the residents and team mates I have had the privilege of getting to know. The community is beautiful and the food is the outstanding.

My grandmother was admitted there and it has been nothing short of royal! They cater to her, her meds are given on time, they have great meals and a wonderful dining experience. The staff are very polite and understanding. If you’re looking for a place for a loved one, this place is wonderful!

The facility has a very warm home feeling as you walk in. The staff are very welcoming to guests and residents. There is always an opportunity to join in on an activity of various kinds from cards and games to learning about animals at the local zoo to local musicians coming to play. The residents rooms are spacious and comfortable. Nice big windows to see outdoors. Plenty of room to move around in. We are very glad that our loved one is in a safe place that she will be cared for.

The staff are friendly welcoming respectful and kind.

5's across the board - I am so very pleased with my moms comfort and care at New Perspective of Oakdale! Staff is friendly, inviting, and willing to answer any questions you may have. It's like Cheers! Everyone knows your name.

.Cleanliness of the facility 4 but they're planning to replace all the carpet soon so that would make it a 5. Some of the décor is not the most modern but it's definitely clean and presentable and for the crowd there it's probably perfect. Administrative staff 5 very helpful, hands on, responsive, personable, proactive. There's a new chef starting soon so we'll see...Activities are a3 but still too early to tell, they've only been there for a month. Value for the money is a 5!!!

1. Great 2. Very clean. 3. Most all staff are friendly. 4. The care is very good. 5. They were short staffed but now have just hired a new person 6. Food is good. 7. Good activities including exercise entertainment, and trips. 8. It is good

I feel very lucky to live here. This community is very comfortable. Everyone has been very nice to me. I can't say anything bad about anybody or anything. I'm very happy I decided to move to Richland Woods.

5's across the board on them all. Coming from my father in law he said the food is really good compared to his last place. He likes the area that the facility is in the staff is very nice and everyone has been very welcoming.

Moved our 92 year old mother into the Waters and they have been wonderful in helping her with the transition. She is in specialized care and support/care has been wonderful. We are very happy having my mother at the Waters.

My parents were residents of Richland Woods for a few years until their passing. They were both in their 90’s. Our family had such a sense of peace knowing they were in a place of care and compassion. I know they felt that too. The layout of the facility is perfect with the dining area in the middle surrounded by individual private apartments. Also included is a courtyard, and beautiful outdoor space. The whole facility is exceptionally clean and comfortable.

This is a great place! My loved one feels safe and that gives us peace of mind. She feels right at home. The staff is very caring. The building is always clean and taken care of. The meals are delicious. The activity program offers something for everyone.

I’ve lived here for 7 years and just love the view of nature outside my window! I’ve met many nice friends and love breakfast with my friends! I have worked with many therapist through fox therapy and they have all helped me maintain my independence!

My mom has lived at Richland Woods for over three years. She is treated with compassion and dignity every day. The Community has activities geared towards stimulating the mind as well as the spirit. Nutritious, healthy and delicious meals are the norm. This is a safe Community that your loved one can call home.

My mom really enjoys living at Richland Woods. There is so many activities to do. She really enjoys that. She is a creative person. They have crafts and exercise there. That is great because it keeps their mind and body in shape. She enjoys the meals. You can order what is on the menu or get a la carte. The portions are good and they are tasty. I have eaten there with my mom and I enjoyed it. I am very happy that she is there. The staff and care service is caring and does what is needed for the patrons. I like that my mom has made so many friends.

Because of my health, I researched options for assisted living several years prior to needing it. I chose Island Shores. The decision was made because residents here were engaged and smiling, as was the staff. In addition, the facility was very nice. After moving in, I was pleased to find that my assessment was correct. The staff--management and department heads, facilities including dining, housekeeping, conceire, and activities, and health care (caregivers/nurses) are all outstanding. Each department works deligently to provide a wonderful place to live. Response time to inquiries and requests is fast. Although everyone here is great, the caregivers deserve special recognition. Everything else can be great but if caregiving is not great, nothing else matters. They are deserving of special recognition and fair wages. This profession is known for lower wages but it takes special people and should be compensated accordingly. I hope that New Perspective willing take a lead in this goal.

Excercise has been getting me more active than before. I have experienced a difference in my body after the workouts. I enjoy dancing class, engaging with my friends, bingo, and the setting of the building like the fire place

Administration and staff were very welcoming, very approachable, were available to work through adjustment. Staff was able to get mom involved with activities. Mom us comfortable and contest. Made concerns with pharmacy they use staff worked with us to reschedule.

Since living at New Perspective North shore I’ve been impressed with all the people the residents and staff have been so welcoming and friendly with me! I have been enjoying the meals and the food is better than I expected. I’ve already attended an orchestra concert that was excellent and I look forward attended more activities.

I moved into this community and quickly have met so many friends within the community! I enjoy visiting with others at meal time and the food is excellent overall. I enjoy almost all of the activities and my favorite activity is the exercise and overall program is great!
