My mother moved into The Retreat at Summerville last month. So far, I'm really satisfied with the care there. Every time I go, she's always clean. The people seem to be more in tune and engaged with the residents. My mom has been laughing a lot there, which I've never seen happen before. She has her own room and her own closet. Even though it's small, I like it better because it's cozier. They have bingo, they take them outside, and they take a balloon and toss it back and forth. They have a piano in the dining area. They do a lot of movie days. I think the food is decent. They have protein and they have vegetables every meal. What I love about this place is that there's a woman sitting there at the front desk to check you in and check you out. And when you take a resident out of the facility, you have to sign and put what time you're coming back. I see so much organization at this with knowing where you're going and when you're coming back.

I liked the idea of the cottages at The Retreat at Summerville, but I just felt that the place needed some upgrading and improvements. I saw a 2-bedroom cottage. It had a small kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living room, another room where you could put a table and chairs, and a small screened-in patio area off the back. If you still drive, you could park right there by your cottage. I did not go to the main building at all, which I was a little disappointed in, because the meals would be served in the main building. I would have wanted to see the amenities available in the main building. It was a nice day, but I didn't see anybody outside anywhere. Other than the lady who met us at the cottage, I didn't see anybody else when we were there. She didn't talk to us about what was in the main building or any kind of activities that the people can participate in, but she was very nice and very friendly.

My mom moved into The Retreat at Summerville a couple of weeks ago. The facility is well-kept. Everybody there is wonderful from the office staff to the nursing sector. We like it a lot and they take good care of her. They keep me informed. They keep me updated weekly on her progress. When I'm not there, they check in to let me know how she's doing. All around, I like them. Her room is very clean. The dining area is beautiful. She's on the memory care side, so they bring in their food on the memory care side. Their activity director is wonderful.

The general appearance of The Retreat at Summerville was nice. We liked the look of the rooms. They were beautiful, but we did not like that all of the buildings were separated, which was my concern, because if a resident wanted to go to the dining hall, they had to go outside and either walk a couple of blocks or drive to the dining hall. The activity center was a separate building that they had to go outside as well. So, I just didn't like how segmented the facility was. It seemed like they had very limited activities. The activity room that we saw had a few puzzles in it, a couple of board games, and a TV. So, it wasn't all that inspiring. The staff was accommodating, but I just kind of got the feeling that they were only doing what was necessary. It was still pleasant, but I just didn't feel like they were going too much further out of their way to do much more.

My tour of The Retreat at Summerville was terrible. Even my father who has Alzheimer's even said that the place is filthy and we saw spiderwebs. It was disgusting, there was rotting wood, no maintenance, and ill-repaired, it was just run-down and pathetic. Their showers all had a lip, you couldn't just roll a wheelchair or walker into them. They were very old and antiquated. They showed us independent living and assisted living. Their rooms had a mini fridge and a microwave, they had a little backyard off of a screened-in porch. But most of the screened-in porches had cracks that were leaking, they were full of water and moldy, and the doors were falling. And the backyard was just a bunch of roots and moss and mold and weeds. The staff who gave me the tour was running late and showed us their room model, which was also antiquated, run down, moldy, and had rotten wood. We had to leave my dad out in the courtyard in his walker to check some of the stuff in the back, because it was too far for him to walk, so it just wasn't good at all. They didn't even welcome us when we came in, nothing from the person behind the desk, and all the way through the tour, everything about it was very negligent and pathetic.

I liked The Retreat at Summerville. We loved the facility. The staff members were all very helpful. The facility was clean and well-maintained. Everything they needed seemed to be right there. What impressed me was that the clients were in a community-type room, and they were sitting at the table playing cards. They were happy. They were having a great time, and I know my mom and dad would have loved that. I ran into a bus in downtown Summerville where they had taken the people out. They were in wheelchairs and on walkers, but they had a luncheon that day. I asked where they were from, and they were from The Retreat at Summerville.
