Community Reviews
The community is beautiful. It's great!
reviewed on: 12/13/2013 by FamilyThe community is beautiful. It's great. I'm keeping it on my list for myself. They were great! I would recommend it to anyone. It just wasn't the best fit for our needs at the time.
Professional...Caring...Family Oriented
reviewed on: 01/21/2014 by Edward J. McCarthyFrom our first meetings, through move in and now in our second month, all has progressed with as little stress possible.Not an easy decision or transition however the administration and staff at Emeritus Colonie Manor has eased our family and especially our Dad into this new stage of living. He is comfortable, safe and well cared for. We pay an enhanced fee (still 1/2 the cost of other local residences) as my Dad is visually impaired and also receives shots daily. Still independent and treated as a person with dignity. He has also made new friends and is very social. We can rest knowing that we have made a good choice.
A good place!
reviewed on: 02/18/2017 by AnonymousThe staff at the Brookdale are all very friendly and accommodating. The place is very clean and maintained well. I would recommend it to anyone looking. The only complaint my father had was the food. They were not his favorite.
Great experience so far
reviewed on: 03/01/2021 by BonnieWe chose Elderwood Village at Colonie because of the cleanliness of the facility and for what it provided. They do provide a lot of activities for the residents. The rooms were nice size and it is all on one floor. They have great with communication, they send us a weekly letter and if anything happens they immediately call us. I would absolutely recommend them.
Emeritus at Colonie Manor - A Friendly Place
reviewed on: 09/21/2013 by PaulineMy Mom has now been here for a month. She is adjusting well. She enjoys the food and the coffee is better than at some restaurants. She remarks that the place is very clean and her room is always neatened and ready for her when she returns from breakfast. The administrative and nursing staff are attentive and show genuine interest. I feel that my Mom is in a safe place. I visit regularly and it always feels like a home. The first time I visited my first reaction was "It doesn't have that institutional smell" It isn't new or the most up to date, but it is a home.
