Community Reviews
Good experience
reviewed on: 12/11/2020 by AnonymousWe chose Trail Creek Place because we needed a facility that transitioned from assisted living to memory care if we ever needed that. My wife is familiar with the city, surroundings, and people so she felt comfortable here. My wife gets along with the staff here very well and they have been good to work with. They do also have a good medical staff. One complaint we have had is the quality of food, especially for the money paid I think it could use improvement. Overall, I would recommend this facility to others.
More like home
reviewed on: 08/21/2018 by AnonymousI have had years of experience working both in supervision and nursing care in long term care facilities. I was quite impressed with Trail Creek Place Memory Care Unit. The facility is quite “ home like” and cozy,and the rooms are generous in space. The staff is friendly and attentive and residents seemed well cared for and engaged in activities. I have looked at several facilities in the area and place this one near the “top of my list” of choice. I have not read the recent state survey which I always do to assess quality of nursing care which will also be a determining factor for me. This facility is not like many others..and definitely has its own unique character..which is hard to find!
My review of Trail Creek Place
reviewed on: 10/11/2021 by anonymousOverall. things are working out here for our family. I do think that communication could be improved and they do seem to have a lot of turnover of staff members.
An excellent place for our loved one

care
reviewed on: 10/16/2016 by AnonymousMy dad is here and my main complaint is that there just arent enough aides to take care of all the memory care clients. the aides that work there are all very nice and helpful, but there needs to be more of them, especially during the weekend times. The rooms are also not cleaned as thoroughly as they should be, as often as they should be.
