The Montclair

The apartments are nice (I guess that comes under "clean") the atrium is pretty, gives a sense of spaciousness! The on your own activities like the library and the exercise area are not stuck off in separate, closed in rooms, but are each on a different floor around the atrium. Lovely use of that space! One is a game "room," I think. The library is on [name removed] floor so I remember that one, and I thought he'd use the exercise area, so I had that one locked in my mind. But no. He does his "steps," walking in pl

I'm happy with The Montclair for my loved one. He's found his people to eat with and it participating in bingo (not cards). He's free to go for walks. He finds something to do with his time and is far less reclusive than he was at his last residence.

A great experience

Their is not much mom can participate in. They have re done the place, looks a lot brighter now. Not so dull looking. Mom loves it, that she can maneuver around in her chair.

A Life Save In This Point Of Life, When They Can't Do Everything For Themselves

This is the best thing in the world when you get to this stage of life. There are three meals a day served, and the residents are able to have anything they would like off the different menus. The staff communication is very good with the residents. There is a full kitchen and washer and dryer connections in the apartment that is very roomy.
