Community Reviews
The residence was very clea...
reviewed on: 10/19/2013 by A Place For Mom CustomerThe residence was very clean. I talked to a couple before I entered the building in the parking lot and asked them about the place. I got very positive feedback. I also talked to some of the residents and got very positive feedback. The staff was very friendly and knew everyones name. I watched a brain activity in progress and liked what I saw. The bedrooms are very nice, slightly bigger than some I have seen. On the whole I was very impressed with this facility and it is definitely on my list of possible residences to choose. I am going back with my brother for him to look at it.
Good, but room for improvement in connecting with family members
reviewed on: 05/13/2013 by anonymousI'm thrilled with Emeritus's desire to "join" my loved one's "journey." I have found the head nurse to be knowledgeable and compassionate, and most of the workers I've spoken with are kind and seem attentive. But I will say that it is hard to get in touch with the folks in charge and often when I speak with those who I do get on the phone, they can't really tell me much. My hope is that they are more fully staffed for caring for people, than they are for responding to family members. So far, my loved one is doing well, although we've apparently had a few missteps in responding to certain needs.
My mother has been here sin...
reviewed on: 06/29/2014 by AnonymousMy mother has been here since Sept,2011. They will only continue with here if she goes into Memory Care We can't afford them now.
They weren't able to handle the care needs.
reviewed on: 10/15/2014 by AnonymousWe were going to go here, we had things all set to go here. All of a sudden they said they couldn't do her oxygen. They are very nice, but an elderly person shouldn't be expected to change their own tanks, they said only a registered nurse could do it. They were the only place that said that, and they pulled out some kind of documentation saying that, but they were the only place that was that way.
Outstanding facility
reviewed on: 03/28/2014 by Sandra KachelMy father lived in the Memory Care Unit of the Emeritus at Preston for about a year. During that time his care was provided by a thoughtful, caring staff who took excellent care of him. We were so satisfied with his care that we have just moved my husband's mother into the same facility and anticipate she will be well cared for as well.
