Atria

My mother has vascular dementia. She moved into Atria in December 2014. So far our experience with the facility has been excellent. It's not cheap (!) but no place is, and the peace of mind is priceless. Everyone is so kind and genuine; residents are treated with respect and dignity. We are looking forward to spring, and the chance to enjoy the lovely outdoor spaces. Anxiety is a big problem with dementia, and I feel like the staff do all they can to make my mom feel calm and safe. I reviewed 8 or 9 different places and am very happy with the choice of Atria Briarcliff.

They have been really good at proactively alerting us any time there are any issues with my grandmother. From the time I walked in they were super friendly, and they have been very willing to accommodate our needs and requests. One thing I do feel they could improve would be the activities. Grandmother does pretty much the same thing every day, and it would be good to have more variety. Overall we are really pleased with Atria Golden Creek.

Overall our experience with Atria Seville was very positive. The staff there is very friendly and helpful. The only thing I didn't really like about Atria Seville is that they seemed very high pressured throughout the sales and setup process.

We really liked Atria. It was the best thing we were ever able to do for her. It was difficult to find a place that could live up to what Atria was, once they were no longer able to care for her. It was clean and the staff was friendly, and they kept her as active as possible. It was great!

We are very happy. It's a very clean place, and the staff is pretty friendly. She is actually pretty happy there. She could use a little more activity for what they do on a daily basis, they have a lot but maybe just a little more variety in the daily activities, just a suggestion, not a complaint. My mother is very comfortable there, and everyone there has been absolutely terrific.

They were excellent here. It was clean and the staff was friendly. I think they did a good job, no complaints here. The only reason we moved was because of the distance, it got to be too much to come as often as she needed me to.

Initial visit was excellent with the only negative was the parking. Everyone from the front desk to the director was exceptional. Beth Hertz was my main contact who guided me along the way. Always helpful and did a tremendous job of following up on all of the details - Beth is incredible. The very first full day at the Atria, my Mom was meeting new people and made her first xmas decoration. Change is not easy for an 87 year old person but the staff at the Atria seemingly has made it easy for her. I would highly recommend the Atria to anyone who wants the best for their loved ones and at a reasonable cost.

Can't say enough great things about Atria Lincoln Place from the facility itself to every member of their staff. They have been a blessing to my father and my family!

Overall they have been extremely caring and sensitive and very efficient in helping us get my father in law settled in while making a huge transition from France to here. The only difficulty is that they are in the midst of a transformation and there are some growing pains with the remodeling and so forth. But the staff, especially the dementia unit, are just exceptional quality of care and service. My Father in law has had a very visibly positive response which has surprised and impressed us. They care so much about making the residents feel at home.

Atria in Cranford, NJ is a place that cares about the residents, & focuses on meeting their needs. Music abounds, exercise, bingo, billiards & more! The executives run Atria with sensitivity & caring & go out of their way to help the residents adjust & thrive. Drs. come to Atria, & this assists the residents in getting the medical care they need & often have a hard time accessing. The residents can learn to use the computer, & a pastor comes to share the Bible with anyone interested. Various clubs develop to encourage the residents to share their interests with like-minded people, & transportation is provided for off sight shopping opportunities, etc. It has been a joy to see my loved ones adjusting so well to assisted living.!

So far they are doing really well. She says the people are all very nice, and she enjoys them. They have been very helpful. She is very happy with 99% of the staff, I think there has only been maybe one person she didn't really click with. Getting adjusted is really the biggest thing for us. It's very clean, and they are taking good care of her. We are very happy with it.

Moving Mom to memory care was a very emotional experience given that she adamantly refused to go. We chose Atria because she had indicated if ever she had to go, that is where she wanted to go. We mede the decision that the time had come, told her and then moved her. The first few weeks were tough. There were lots of tears. But after that Mom adjusted and now loves her apartment (it is really a studio) at Atria, participates in the activities and is well loved by the staff. Recently I spent a day with Mom attending all of her activities with her and I came away feeling that we, her children, absolutely made the right decision, and that Atria Hacienda was the right place for her. The care givers are incredibly warm and loving, and I was told more than once, "We love your Mom." Recently Mom fell. She called me to tell me, and shortly afterwards one of the attendants, Maria, called me to tell me, as it the protocol. I had met Maria during my day at Atria and so it was like talking to a friend. Mom seems more relaxed and alert now that she is not alone in the house worrying that her kids are going to 'put me in an old folks home.' This is not the 'old folks home' that Mom feared. It is a warm environment, with caring attendants who keep Mom engaged and serve her food that she enjoys eating. My only regret is that we didn't move Mom sooner.

They are outstanding! It's very clean, and everyone is really friendly. There is one person at the front desk that could stand to use some help dealing with people, but everyone is nice. They are very attentive and responsive to us. They have lots of good activities. While not every single meal is on target, for the most part it's good, and they have lots of fresh fruits and vegetable, and lots of variety. They really are a great place, and we are happy with them.

The food is great, except for breakfast rolls. (Or maybe Mom keeps them in her room too long.) Staff is extra friendly, especially the front desk guy . We like the ambiance and the cleanliness. I like it that the residents change their door décor to suit the season and holidays. Mom says there are too many dogs. I think the Atria works extra hard to keep the hallways clean.

They are doing a good job. I don't have any concerns or complaints or anything I feel like needs to be done better. It's clean, and the staff is friendly and attentive. It's working out well, and my loved one is happy.

My mom was at Mission Hills for one month, and she had a good experience with them. The staff did a great job and we were very pleased overall.

I think it's a wonderful place. My parents are happy and the other residents are happy. It's clean, and the staff is friendly. They are attentive and responsive. The food is excellent. My only comment is for the on-boarding process. There was a little of a delay getting things set up for the move in.

This new home of mine is conveniently located to business places I need to use. I find my new home is quite comfortable and the staff etc are all very helpful and in a friendly way. I enjoy our meals and the way they are served. I like the way the mailboxes are set up...no going outside and in all kinds of weather to get our mail. I enjoy the beauty of Atria and the friendliness of the occupants. Glad I chose Atria

Our interaction with the entire staff was extremely beneficial in our determination of this facility for my mother-in-law. Highly impressed with the amount of activities available and the obvious dedication demonstrated by the staff.

They do a very good job. It's very clean, and the staff is really friendly. They are very responsive to a call button they respond with in about five minutes depending on how many are going off at the same time. The staff seems very consistent for the most part, they get to know the residents really well. Nothing but consistent care. The engage life staff is really energetic, and very attentive. No complaints about the food, I like the food, and the waitstaff is pretty consistent and they get to know you right away. My only minor criticism there is that there are a lot of games and she isn't much of a game player, but she does enjoy the musical entertainment. We like that it seems to be just the right fit for her, not too big not to small.
