In Transition

They have been going through transition. New ownership I believe. It's taken them awhile to prepare her food correctly (chopped). It's better. Slow bringing food to the table. Also she is supposed to get two showers a week. There's been a lot of confusion about scheduling so she hasn't gotten her showers when she was supposed to. Hopefully the confusion has been rectified. My sister is paying for these two services as part of her care plan. I am hoping these concerns will be taken care of when the transition is

Review for The Courtyards at Mountain View

The place is beautiful and we love that memory care has lots of windows and large hallways all on ground level. My husband's studio is comfortable and kept clean. I can take him over to assisted living for more activities and around the big courtyard also. The caregivers are friendly and work hard. He needs a lot of help because he is a fall risk. However the head nurse in memory care that I had interviewed with retired shortly after he moved in a couple weeks ago and has not yet been replaced. Another nurse from a

Staff turnover

There is a really turnover rate of staff at Courtyards, and care plans are not followed very closely. Communication is extremely lacking, too.

I had relatives live here. The transportation that they promised is notoriously unreliable. They will leave your 82 year old relative waiting for a ride back home. Important medical appointments have been missed. They are dismissive then say they only have one driver for the entire community. This happened routinely and we eventually had to move. The food is gross for anyone remotely interested in fresh food. [Names Removed] in admin, will never respond promptly, if at all. They routinely overbilled. My relative go
