Review for Aspen Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center

For the short time my mother in law was there we were very happy. Great, polite staff. Clean, caring facility. She wasn't there long enough to have a comment on much more. I would highly recommend them if someone was in need of a memory care facility.

Friendly & Kind staff

I wish I could give a better score but care is never cheap and hard to afford. But for what Aspen Ridge is providing to mom we are content. We always see staff members, they are always near by, responsive and we never have to look for anyone. They always know where mom is at in the facility. Mom has been a full time resident at Aspen Ridge since [date removed]

The Best By Far

They REALLY care about the residents. It's evident how much they care in how they interact with residents. How they speak to them. Hug them. Even paint their nails! It's the perfect caring place for those with advanced dementia. This is the 3rd facility my Mom has been in and the best by far. There are very loving staff and it is a great place for those with advanced dementia or Alzheimer's.

Nice community with great activities

One thing our family likes the most about the Aspen Ridge Community is all the different activities they have for the residents. They have activities like arts and crafts, karaoke and dancing.
