Community Reviews
Great care and activities, but communication on the business end leaves a little to be desired
reviewed on: 08/22/2013 by Loved one at AmethystI would say that the communication is challenged by the application of formulaic procedures or practices as opposed to individuale needs and practicality. They are attempting to make it more accomodating, she is getting what she needs, her care givers give ehr the care that she needs, its things like the fee structures that are imposed that are formulaic as opposed to practical. They've been willing to provide her the support she needs physically and let her do what she can on her own. She has two kinds of exercises that she absolutely enjoys and other "keeping them moving" kinds of things. I'm generally quite pleased with the facility and the level of opportunity there is to do things. On a little less positive note, being able to get answers from the person that can help is a little bit harder than I feel it should be. It would be nice if they could help the families and have a little Q&A session for us or a family members forum because most of us are handling this for the first time. For cleanliness, I think it has more to do with the grounds, I don't think the dining room's unclean, but they could spruce it up a little.

reviewed on: 06/30/2015 by AnonymousWe chose this facility for our elderly parents based on it being the best Assisted Living value in the NW Valley in our analysis. The facility is going through some service challenges in their Arbors dining area right now however. Given they get this worked out I would recommend this facility to anyone looking for a good value....not the place for you if looking for marble tile and highest end services.
Excellent Community
reviewed on: 03/19/2015 by AnonymousMy Dad is in the assisted living section of Amethyst Arbors Community. He is enjoying his time there. The food is excellent. I have enjoyed several meals with Dad. There is a regular menu and also chef's specials every day. The dining experience seems to be well organized. The staff to resident ratio seems to be good. There is no extreme wait for a caregiver if needed. They do encourage residents to participate in activities available. They do have pendants for the residents to wear for safety concerns.
I Have My Minor Concerns, But Overall Everything Is Well
reviewed on: 06/29/2016 by AnonymousMy mother is doing well here at this community. I do like the community, but there are minor concerns I have. The refrigerator handle in my mothers room is broken, and I've asked many time for them to fix it, they have yet to do so. I would say the cleaning could be done better. Other than those issues, she does enjoy the people here. They do offer activities. I know she is safe and in good hands. This is a community I would recommend.
Wishing For More Activities
reviewed on: 12/21/2016 by AnonymousIt was time for my parents to be in a community and it was an adjustment for them but they are doing pretty well. WE found that there is not as much activities and things to do for my parents. People are not talking with them and they staff say they cant force them to do activities. The residents seem to be farther than my parents. However they are getting good care and they love the food. We are just disappointed in the involvement.
