Memory Care, room for improvement

The assisted living side is much better than the memory care side. They put on a show when you tour. The staff are not really engaged with the staff, they do not do the activities they have listed. Never enough staff for the amount of residents. Rooms are an ok size, not cleaned well, floors are sticky and slippery. They have an ant problem in the rooms and activity room. The manager Brenda is very responsive before you move in, once you're in, not so much.

A Great Memory Care Place for a Loved One

Professional, caring and helpful staff. I recommend Ella Springs for memory care and the director is very helpful working with the family to make everything flow as easy as possible. The memory care staff are very professional, caring and helpful. I'm glad we picked this facility to take care of my wife.

I would highly recommend!

The place is beautiful. The staff is caring, loving and friendly. This was exactly what I/ he needed. He really didn't want to be there, but with dementia, and his wife in the hospital, I had no choice. He adapted quickly with the encouragement of your staff. He was only there 1 month, but it was a lifesaver for me. It gave us enough time to get his wife home to continue to care for him. He went on hospice in February and passed away on [date removed]. I just want to thank you for caring for my dad when I was unabl

Good support in this difficult time in my parent's life

It is difficult to give a real accurate score as my mom and dad were there for only two months. My mom passed away much earlier than expected and my dad felt too emotional to stay there. I felt we did have a good experience at the facility.

Would absolutely recommend

Apartment very nice size and layout. Staff extremely nice and friendly. He says food is just so so. There are lots of activities but he is not jumping in. Does use the salon and exercises. Building and grounds are very clean.
