The Commons at Union Ranch

Supurb facility....

Overall, fantastic place! I would place my mom and would have kept her there if we could afford it. [price removed] a month has become way out of our league. Awesome place though.

Review for The Commons at Union Ranch

They are very helpful in making sure they are a good fit. Lots of activities and the residents are given a lot of attention. It's clean and has a warm home like feeling. We picked this community because of the communication, activities and friendliness of the staff.

The Commons was my first choice before I went on any of the tours. The commons was stuffy and sterile - as if it were mass produced. We signed up for lunch that day but were not offered it when we arrived, and we got a tour guide who was less knowledgeable than I would expect after waiting a half hour. Rooms were bigger than other places though.

My journey with Mom and The Commons

Overall the experience went well, however it's not cheap and when your parent has dementia like mine, it's ugly. My mom fell on [date removed] can't walk, is in diapers and so all these things we take for granted become expensive. They evaluate at the beginning and use a scale of their own for dementia, such as help with showering, getting dressed, using restroom, eating, etc... and if your parent needs a lot of help, be prepared to pay. Dementia diagnosis is separate from housing, 2 different charges.

My tour experience was very nice, but they offered a lot of activities that my husband couldn't do so I didn't choose it. Their staff had mostly been there a long time too.

This Is A Great Place for Mom or Dad

I would recommend the community to others to view to see if it would be a good fit for their loved ones. I would stay here myself. The staff are great to work with. The staff communication with the family is really great. They are always keeping us updated on any changes health wise or in case my loved one falls. They truly treat the family and residents as they would want to be treated.
