Baldwin House Senior Living Lakeside

Pam

Baldwin House Lakeside is clean and friendly. The rooms are very nice, spacious, clean, and bright. The staff members are caring and nice. They offer meals, laundry, and housekeeping. There's a medical team on staff, and they offer activities for the seniors as well. They have a little library, a chapel, and an activity room. My mom eats the food, and she likes it. They have good offerings of food. It's reasonably priced considering how expensive it can be.

We decided on Baldwin House Senior Living Lakeside (Lakeside) for my mom. One of the main things was that they had an open dining room, and they had 24/7 medical staff on site. The staff was friendly, it was clean, and it was very similar to the apartment she has now. I've had three tours there, with different family members, and they were very accommodating with their scheduling and the tours. They seem to have a lot for them to do, and they check on the residents. They had a salon, a workout room, an activity room, and all types of things. It was closer to me than where she currently is, and that was between my sister and me, between the two of us.

It is lower-priced, clean, and definitely adequate. It's just that the quality of the structure itself was not as nice as the facility we went with, but for the price, it was perfect. The staff was very friendly.

Its apartments were a good size. They had a library and a gym where people could go and exercise. They also had a nice dining area. The food wasn't super good, but it was OK. The place was clean.

It was a little smaller than the other facility, but the rooms were nice. They were big and they had a little kitchen area. The location was convenient. The dining area was nice and roomy.

I visited and I liked the staff. It was very clean with lots of activities. They were doing sort of exercise when I was there. I saw the dining room. It was clean. It had good variety of food. I would recommend them to others.

We chose it for my mom, and she will be moving in the place soon. The staff was very friendly, and the place was incredibly clean. We were very impressed. We have been treated very well. They are helping us to make it a smooth transition for my mom because it was a hard thing. Overall, we were very pleased.

My grandma used to live here. It was great. We loved it. The rooms were very nice. I would not mind living there. They had a lot of activities, and my grandma did a lot there. They had bingo and shopping, and they had daily activities. I would recommend them because I felt my grandma was well cared for every time we went to visit. She was happy there.

It was nice, clean, and affordable. The apartments were nice -- 1-bedroom and real nice brown carpet, perfect size for a single person. It has a nice kitchen and cabinets; I was impressed. The staff was nice, and the dining setup was nice too. Security is basic, and it feels secured. They have bingo, exercise, movie nights, cards, and horse races.

It seemed homier, caring, and more comfortable than the others we’ve seen. The staff is very friendly. The apartment was nice -- very well setup -- and I think mother is going to be very happy there. The dining hall was very clean and very nice.

It was nice, and the rooms seemed spacious. The lady who took us on a tour gave us a lot of information and resources which I thought was valuable. The residents were communicating with us as well, but the staff was not accommodating at the time of our visit.

It was very nice. It was very good. Everything was attractive and very well laid out. They had pretty much anything you would want in terms of activities. The staff was very nice and very accommodating. We looked at their one-bedroom unit that has a little kitchenette.

It was very clean. The staff was very friendly. I liked their security. They had medical staff for when there are things that need to be addressed. The rooms were very clean, up to date, pleasant, and roomy. The food was excellent with lots of variety. They had lots of activities which were age appropriate. They had bingo, musicals, radio day shows, and things from their past. They also had outings.

My mother could no longer manage her own home, but she is still fairly independent and even does her own laundry. It offers independent living where each of the resident has their own apartment. They receive meals down in the dining room three times a day. If their needs increase, they can hire additional services. They have a bus that takes them out to Meijer's once a week, so she can pick up what stuff she needs. It's also close to my home, so I can get over there a lot. She's in a 2-bedroom apartment with handicapped equipped bathroom, and all the hallways are wide. They can socialize and there's always a group in the lobby just talking or another group that's watching TV. They had a family Halloween party. All the families were invited to come over for dinner. They had entertainment. A guy played a guitar with old music that they would recognize, and he took turns dancing with all the ladies. Everybody had a great time, it was wonderful. The food is supposed to be all homemade, and they welcome family members to come and eat there if they want to. If the residents don't happen to like the two specials for the day, they can always order off a regular menu. They staff is very accommodating and they know everybody. They will call me immediately about any concern. I have no problems at all and I would recommend them. We're really happy with our choice. They have pet therapy comes in, nursing students from the local school comes in and check blood pressure once a week, and there's a visiting physician every Wednesday. They take a couple of nice trips every month. They keep them active and interested in things.
