Room for improvement.

The Grande was sold & is now Kimwell. The caretakers are in no hurry to respond to the residents pendants, sometimes it is hrs. The Caretaker staff is a revolving door. And they often do not show up for their shifts. The Grande paid decent wages & gave employees benefits. Kimwell does not. Regarding Management there are always excuses & promises. There are ridiculous extra charges for things that should be included in rent & care. The meals are terrible. There is the promise of a new menu in May.

Review for Kinwell at Sunset Hills

If they improve with new owner, then probably yes, I would recommend. My biggest concern is lack of staff. But they have a new owner & a new name, [name removed], Senior Living. Not sure if or when we would move my loved one.

Beware

Staff would play on phones. Sometimes not checking on her during shifts. Delays checking on health condition. Once delay on eye drops after they were prescribed it took many weeks to get them started. Personal items disappeared. Washing and cleaning wouldn't be done. One nightly medicine wasn't given.

Our mom was a resident for 22 months

We thought this beautiful facility was a great place for our mom. The memory care floor is secure and attractive. However after 22 month fighting for her to have decent care we gave up. Maybe the change in ownership will make it better but we were done....constant complaints about cold or tasteless food. Little to no activities for those in memory care, constantly changing staff and often understaffed. Hygiene assistance was non existent...sometime weeks between showers or change of clothing. Call buttons that neve…

Our experience

A month ago when my brother arrived, I would have given a 2, but the new Executive Manager is making positive changes, so I give it a 3. My brother is in memory care. Be mindful of how often the staff calls about falls. We get calls almost daily so what changes are being facilitated to prevent falling? Also, if you're able, do you loved one's laundry so they get their own clothes back.

not the right fit for us

I should also add that my mom has already been moved out of this facility. Resident safety/medication management- two of my mom's medications were changed without my knowledge including dosage of a sedative from once in the evening to 3x a day, after each meal. More activities and higher staff to resident ratios- wandering became a major issue for my mom to the point where we were asked to provide a private caregiver to prevent her from wandering. This was not financially feasible, so we moved her to a facility wi…
