Very Impressed

My sister and I have had considerable experience with memory care facilities through the needs of our parents and now our brother. The relationships with some other places started good but deteriorated with the change of key personnel or new management/owner. This time we feel like we found THE golden egg. It has been a blend of the best features we found in other places. Dementia comes with different challenges so there isn't a predictable "normal" .

I am currently a resident at Barber Station. I think I would recommend Barber Station Senior Living, with some caution. Communication with the family is somewhat limited. For instance: they didn't tell me that they don't have an accessible van. They only have a regular passenger car. Lots of the residents can't go anywhere.

Lovely facility, great direct care staff

Barber Station is a lovely new clean facility. They are still learning how to be a memory care facility. I appreciated the family style dining. I purposely visited during this time so I could meet the other residents and see how the staff cared for them. The direct care staff did great, and I felt they cared about and kept safe, clean and with dignity, both my dad and the other residents. They use behavioral techniques, not over medicating and the residents are mostly calm and content. [name removed], the recre
