I toured Sungarden Terrace Assisted Living and Memory Care. The memory care unit was very small. It seemed to be for people who were more advanced. It had an open garden patio, and the residents could go out there. The activity room and the dining room were all one space. The upkeep seemed good. It just wasn't very lively in there. It was very depressing. They had a pretty roomy patio area. Residents were out there walking. They had benches and grass. I think there were some planter boxes too. The patio was nice. There was someone who was doing nail painting when we went.

My dad moved into Sungarden Terrace Assisted Living and Memory Care. It's a great place, and what's nice about it is it has a piano in the memory care area. That was important to me for my father because a lot of places have pianos, but they're in the assisted living area. And so, the fact that they have one in memory care is a huge plus. It is a very nice place. The staff is excellent. I've tried their food and it's excellent. Everything about this place is great. I like it. Everything is clean. The layout is very nice and very simple to understand. They have an outdoor walking area around the memory care. Every day, they have activities. They have a calendar and they're very good activities. Everything they have done is excellent. I have nothing to complain about. They've really helped me. The best part is they're affordable.

My mom moved into Sungarden Terrace Assisted Living and Memory Care. The upkeep is very nice and always has a fresh and clean smell. The facility is nice and presentable. I'm very happy with it. The staff members were nice and smiling. They all make it a point to greet my mom using her name for familiarity. They are very friendly and upbeat. They have activities, like games, exercises, and music. My mom has been very happy with everything. They have a movie theater, a couple of different game rooms, and a hairdresser. The cafeterias are nice and laid out very nicely. The rooms are all very nice. From what we saw, the food looked really good. The staff even eats there because they enjoy the food so much. They have a daily calendar of all their activities. I know my mom's participating and enjoying it.

Sungarden Terrace was much smaller compared to the other place we visited. They offered first and second floor studio, which was really nice. I liked the second floor, and it was almost $200 difference. My friend can take the elevator up. The facility was clean and well kept. I did not have much interaction with any staffing. I think I was introduced to a couple activities' people in passing, and they all seemed friendly enough. She gave me a newsletter that has special activities. They have both memory care and assisted living there, so that would be kind of a one stop deal. I got to look at the rooms and the common areas. The director of marketing admission was really nice. They had a movie room that had all the chairs set up. They had a popcorn making machine, and that was very popular. She showed me all the different areas. She said that if he needed any furnishings, they had some furnishings. They could help furnish the room. They have the regulars each meal, then they can pick something different off the little menu (if they wanted to have a cheeseburger instead of a bowl of soup). The second floor studio was nice, open, and airy. They try and create an atmosphere where it's bright, sunny, and cheery. I had a good feeling about that one. They had laundry services and snacks. If somebody wanted to have a cup of coffee, they have the coffee place they can just walk to. They have activities. They had a room for physical activities they can do with them. They had libraries, a common area or a family room if somebody wanted to just go watch TV or something, and they have special events planned. The dining area seemed well kept and gave people room. It was nicely set up. With the little contact that I had with anybody, they all seemed very outgoing and very cheery. It seemed like they were there for the people that were living there. It didn't look like they didn't want to be there or that this was the only job that they could get. They truly were there because that's the environment that they want to be in.

My husband has moved into Sungarden Terrace. The staff is wonderful and the care he is receiving there is wonderful. They're very friendly. It has a homey feeling. He gets really good care there. They do some activities, but I don't think he is as involved. It's a little bit harder to get him to do activities, but they had talked to me and asked me to bring some magazines for him to see if that would help him. He's a little bit more advanced than some of the residents there. Due to that, it's a little bit challenging to do activities with him. He's in the memory care. He gets really good meals there. He's happy with the staff. The staff is very friendly and they try to do things to get to know him better. Even the residents, it's kind of a very family-like feeling. I go during dinnertime. A lot of the times when I go, I end up feeding him. Everything looks good. We had Thanksgiving meal there and it was really good. For a facility, something like that, you can't expect like a restaurant quality, but it's better than the previous places that he'd been to. The staff is absolutely wonderful. The facility is really clean. It's worth it.

I toured Sungarden Terrace about a year ago. It was a very pleasant assisted living community. Everything was very clean. It had lots of areas where people could sit outside their rooms, and there were different small community areas. It was an older facility, but you wouldn't really feel that way, and it felt clean and pleasant, too. The assisted living area would have been a good place. They had some outdoor spaces and outdoor eating spaces, too. They also showed me the memory care because my dad has a dementia diagnosis. It seemed like he would be able to live in assisted living until he couldn't manage that type of thing, so I think they are flexible on where the people would live depending on the person and not depending on the diagnosis, which was nice. The memory care area was definitely for more moderate-to-severe memory issues. It was smaller and secure, but it was part of the building. It did have a little bit of outdoor space. It felt very chaotic, so it didn't seem very peaceful, but that's just the nature of memory care to some extent. Since Lewy body dementia is different from Alzheimer's, that part of it would not be conducive to my dad as far as his condition, especially now. It would not be a good match for Lewy body because it was too cramped, too loud, and a little too chaotic in the memory care area for that type of dementia. They have a library and a courtyard -- like an outside area where they can go -- and they're very reasonably priced for what they offer.
