Community Reviews
Thrilled with the Amethyst Arbor!
reviewed on: 12/20/2019 by Donna MontanarellaWe are so grateful that we chose the Amethyst Arbor as my mom's new home. Eric provided multiple tours to assure that our family members were all comfortable and all of our questions were answered. He was very kind and patient. Everyone involved with my mom's move in were wonderful. Unfortunately, my dad was hospitalized and diagnosed with metastatic cancer on the scheduled move in day. He died 2 1/2 wks later. All of the staff was very compassionate and attentive to my mom while my dad was dying and after. Our whole family got to spend time at the Amethyst and were all so impressed with how lovely our mom's apartment is and how beautiful the common areas are and how wonderful the staff is. Everything is bright and cheerful and homey! The grounds are so beautiful with flowering bushes and grass. The whole place is immaculate and never has bad odors. There are so many helpful services. It has been such a huge assistance and relief to our family. My mother is kept safe. The dining room is lovely and the meals are very good. The service is excellent. The residents seem happy and well cared for. I hear all of the staff calling the residents by their names. My mother receives continuous competent and loving care. She feels very safe and we have confidence in the very efficient staff. Everybody is so helpful and loving. I am a nurse and have very high standards. I am totally impressed with everything! Every medical professional I have spoken to who knows the Amethyst has nothing but positive feedback. Most of all, my mom is happy with her new home!
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.
patient and caring
reviewed on: 08/19/2015 by AnonymousMom is having health problems so it took some time for the staff at Amethyst Arbors to get adjusted with her issues. The only real negative I have is I was real disappointed when mom had an accident and she had to go to the hospital, I didn't realize we had to get our own transportation. I think they need to make sure people know this up front. Some positives are the staff is very patient and caring. They have communicated with me really well. I would have no hesitation recommending this place to anyone.
mom liked it. I need to spe...
reviewed on: 01/11/2014 by A Place For Mom Customermom liked it. I need to speak with them in more detail regarding the flexibility of her options. She would not need three meals a day. What would cost be for two meals a day and someone to assist with showering three times a week.
Very Happy!
reviewed on: 01/09/2014 by Son-In-LawI see nothing wrong at all, she is moving in tomorrow, so we've been dealing with them for a few weeks. We are in the application process now for Medicaid, but they advised us that if we're going with Medicaid to book the first month privately. Sometimes Medicaid will require you to share a room, but if you're already moved in to a single room, they never ask you to share. She has a studio, and it's perfect sized. I haven't had the food, but the menu looks good! It's big, they've got two facilities for assisted living, one for dementia and then regular apartments.
