CriticalI wouldn't recommend this place for anyone. They told us to stay away for 4-5 days so she could acclimate. They never called once to say she was having any problems. When we went in on the 4th day. She was in her bed uncovered and in a soiled diaper. The next day the same thing but a pad under her soaked through. We 911'd her out of there. They never checked on her. There is so much more to the story. Like I said I wouldn't put a dog in there.
★★★★★
PositiveWhat we liked the most about the community is that the people were friendly and they seemed to care about my grandma. Yes, we would recommend Viva Memory Care to other families based on the experience
★★★★★
PositiveThe staff are caring and supportive. The activities director is amazing young man. Mom has received therapy and they are keeping her very active. Food is really good the cooks are very hardworking and do a great job. I'm overall very happy with the care mom my is receiving.
★★★★★
PositiveI did not give it a 5 because I think the Private Pay focus is important and it was not clear to me after my first few communications with your staff. The facility feels very homey with the Executive Director as the parent. Everyone is. We friendly and happy to meet new residents and their families.
★★★★★
PositiveStaff has been helpful and has made my grandma comfortable. The different sides (wings) they had 1 side that is geared more toward people with dementia that are further gone, which i felt was important for my grandma, who was mentally more there than not. She had memory problems, but when she was mentally there more than some others. Unfortunately, she was placed in the wrong wing though
★★★★★
PositiveWe are so pleased with our experience with Commonwealth. They truly care for my mom. They are very communicative and involve the families. We have lots of family meals. She attends many activities. The staff is always friendly. We have been thoroughly pleased with her placement at Commonwealth.
