The Fountains at Bronson Place

The Fountains at Bronson Place assisted living facility was recommended by a friend in the region as an option for my friend's mother.

The pretty backyard features many places for seniors to enjoy around the grounds safely. The property also had plenty of park-like space with nicely manicured lawns. The centralized lake is a great place to relax and enjoy the day.

It is a nice retirement community that offers a variety of living options. We could see that the residents there are content and well cared for when we arrived.

As we walked through the building, we could see that the interior design was nicely ordered and easy to navigate. Each room had nice views with really nice décors featuring lots of fresh air and light.

The private rooms were decorated tastefully with a homey, light and airy atmosphere. Each unit has nice views of the surrounding area. Bathrooms were designed with safety seats and rails.

The main dining room had a comfortable and spacious decor. The residents are offered healthy, home-style cooked meals in a casual restaurant setting.

The food looked and smelled delicious, as well as healthily prepared. The menus included many interesting dishes, as well as the usual American fare. Snacks are offered regularly throughout the day and whenever residents desire them.

The exercise center includes daily yoga and aerobics exercise classes. The equipment is available throughout the day and residents may also walk the grounds safely.

The many activities on the calendar of events included a variety of stimulating activities like fun ways to exercise with nature walks and the opportunity to enjoy all that the region offers.

The residents all looked very content. The kind and caring staff ensure that the resident's needs are met in a peaceful, yet stimulating living environment.

This assisted living home is a bit deceiving. If you see a picture of this facility you will say it looks very nice. If you look at the brochure you will also be impressed. I have a friend who stays there and I visit her on a regular basis. She does not look happy. She says that everything is ok but you can tell they are not. What brings down the score is the people. It might look like a nice place to live but the people are the ones that bring down the score. They do not act like they are genuine. They act like they are putting on a show. I am a pretty good judge of character and I know I am right. They act like they are doing things because they have to and do not enjoy the residents. I noticed negative behavior to the residents when they thought that I was not looking. I also noticed that they weren't very gentle with their patients. I would give this place a rating of 5. But when you add the staff I have to bring the score down to a 3.
