I visited this facility

We toured Bayside Senior Living. They had to evacuate during the hurricane and it smelled. The roof was leaking and the air-conditioning still wasn't up and running correctly since last year's hurricane. Therefore, it was not something that we would consider. It was very nice, but they really took a hit with that hurricane. The people that we met were super pleasant and they offered some wonderful activities, but because the air-conditioning wasn't running correctly, I think that's attributing to the smell that we smelled. It could have been just that particular area that we were in, but because of the air quality it smelled, and it's a big turnoff. They need to get the air-conditioning running and the roof repaired. When we entered, there was no one at the front desk and we had to wait for someone to even say hello to us. They weren't expecting to see us, so that could have been the reason. We just walked in. We had no scheduled tour, but they were very accommodating and they gave us a tour right then and there. We didn't have to come back and I thought that was really gracious of them.

My mother has moved here. It's easier for me with her there. The place is fairly new. The people are friendly. They do a pretty good job. There are just a few complaints, but you're going to have complaints no matter where you go. The people that I've met have been very friendly. My mother hasn't had too many complaints. They treat her very nicely. She's got a studio with a small kitchen, a refrigerator, and a microwave. They were furnished. We got a coffeepot there and some dishes, and she's got a living area, a bathroom, and a shower. You have different room choices. You can get a one-bedroom, which is a little bit bigger. It's an assisted living facility, but she's on a level four for caretaking because she can't get up by herself anymore. She's 102. They have bingo and games that they play. They bring people in to perform, sing, dance, and tell stories. They have a night where they've invited people over for Memorial Day. They're doing a country a month. This month it's Jamaica, so they're doing some food that's Jamaican and doing some interesting things with the Jamaican culture. They got another month that they're going to do another country. I think they do a good job with the food. The facility is very good.

My dad is in here, and the place is just beautiful. The staff is phenomenal, and they are all engaged at all different levels. It's not like only one person can do something; they share responsibilities. They are incredible in getting you involved with the activities and programs. They really put effort into making the residents feel welcome. The most important thing is their COVID restrictions; they are very strict, and I think it is great because they have had zero cases of COVID. Everyone in that facility is vaccinated. They have lots of activities. They have virtual bowling, which I've never seen before, and some of the residents can do it from a wheelchair -- they are very considerate. This for me is like the crème de la crème because it is so new.

My mom is at the memory care unit here. First of all, they realized that I had an immediate need, because my mother would disappear on us after dark, and it was a big ordeal to find her. When they contacted me, they made it so easy for me to get my mom placed in five days. It required some paperwork, and they came to the home. A lot of these places were like, "You have to take her here and you have to take her there," but they just came right to the home and had it by Tuesday, even when I just made the phone call on Monday. By Tuesday, they were out here evaluating her. I had gone Tuesday morning for a tour, and nothing was off limits. I got to ask the residents, I got to talk to the staff, and everybody was so kind and friendly. Then they came out to the home on the same day, introduced themselves to my mom, and did their assessment that they needed for the paperwork. It was pretty much a done deal by six o'clock on Tuesday night, and all she needed was her COVID test, which I took her to get. They just told me where to go so we could get the results. I also needed furniture, and they even supplied that. They had some of it stored that somebody had left, and then they set up the bed. Every place that I called, they said that we have to buy our furniture, and that's going to take me a little bit longer. They said, "We realized, based on talking to your mom, that you need us to act now. So, we're willing, for free, to let you use this furniture." My mom's been in a private room just until she could adjust, and then they will move her in with somebody else. They really bent over backwards for us. When I dropped her off on Monday, she recognized somebody, and she was smiling. She went right off with them, and never looked back. The first thing I noticed when we got there was how clean the place was. The offices, the rooms, the restaurant, the lobby, and everything else look so clean. The residents were smiling, friendly, and they seemed to be happy there -- even the employees were happy. I haven't tasted their food yet, but my mom is eating it, and I know she likes good food. The employees are also happy with it, too. They communicated beautifully with me since my mom's been there. They really made it all easy.

I am/was a resident of this facility

I moved three months ago, and I'm happy with it. The room is neat and clean, and the staff is good. The food is fine, too. It's a good community. We have some activities, but not total activities. They don't do that because they're trying to keep everybody safe. They're restricted by a lot of things.

I visited this facility

The rooms were lovely. You could decorate them, and put in any furniture you wanted. I was impressed with the lady that showed us through, she would stop and talk, and she knew everybody's name. The great room had a nice TV, sofas, chairs, and tables. It was just very pleasant, bright, and decorated nicely. I was impressed with it. The facility was beautiful, very convenient, and easy to get in and out . The staff was just around, pleasant, smiling,and to me that's a personal touch.

It is impressive, and it's the best place I've gone to visit in terms of facilities. It's only two or three years old, and the people there are really nice and helpful. Any kind of problem that we've had they take care of it right away. We've been very happy. They have activities and stuff, although my dad's not really interested, but they do have a whole lot of stuff to choose from. We've had our family down to visit, and we went in there for Thanksgiving dinner. They gave us a private dining room and it was top notch. Even on regular days, they have really good food. There's a main course and if you don't like that they have maybe five or six alternate things that you can choose from. My dad loves it. It's very nice and it's just a couple years old, so everything is pretty brand-new looking.

It was very new, so it didn't have much going on. The rooms are very nice and spacious. The person who gave me the tour was fine.

It is a very clean facility. All the rooms were very clean. The staff was friendly. My mom had a 1-bedroom with an efficiency kitchen and it was perfect for what we needed for respite care. They had daily exercise, chair exercises, ice cream socials, and they took people out shopping. One of the great benefits is it's a two week minimum stay as opposed to a 30-day minimum.

It is brand new. I really liked it; it would have been a second choice. The staff and the community impressed me. We wanted a nice, private room that my brother would be comfortable in. They had it, and it was very nice. I appreciated the staff, who was very good. The activities were pleasing to me.
