My parents picked Rice Estate. They are independent but really enjoyed the fact that there is 24/7 nursing staff available. The apartments have high ceilings and are a great value for the space. The dining staff are so helpful and kind! The food was fantastic as well! We have not seen the activities but the calendar was full of things to do. The housekeeping staff really keep all areas clean. There is a wonderful library, activity room and a chapel. Rice Estate is faith based and has services every Sunday. It is more like a home and a family setting than an institution.

My mom stayed at Rice Estate for rehab. When she was there it was clean and everybody was very professional. We were very pleased with her care there. The food was excellent, they have generous portions, and there's a good variety. My mom had physical and occupational therapy there. Her room was spacious.

Mom is in Rice Estate, the appearance is good, and the staff is adequate. She enjoys bingo and music concerts. They go on trips sometimes. Her room is a little small but clean and homey. The personnel need more social skills, and they need to improve the food.

Grossly understaffed with mostly a bunch of nurses-for-hire. My loved one's doctor paid minimal attention to his worsening condition, which sent him to the ER (just in time!) with a seriously backed-up bladder that caused damage to his kidneys.

The rooms at Rice Estate were a little smaller, but it was very nice. They had a nice dining room area. They were remodeling the whole top floor of one of their areas, so we didn't get to see one of their beauty salons. They were bringing the people over from one place to another on their little golf carts. The staff was very helpful. The person who toured us around was helpful. They had a lot of activities, but I did not observe any. They are private pay only and don't take any Medicare or Medicaid or insurance, so if you get in there in their nursing facility and run out of money, you get kicked out.

I wasn't really impressed with Rice Estate, and a lot of it was because they were having problems with their employees. The girl who usually did the tour was on maternity leave, and the girl we worked had only been working there for three weeks. I had many questions, and she didn't have any answers. It's not just a retirement community, but they also had assisted living and nursing home care. I didn't really meet any residents whom I would consider were independent living. The ones I saw were more assisted living, and they weren't really sharp, which I wasn't too impressed with. I also didn’t like that you had to pay a large amount of money as a down payment. They had nice rooms and were a good size, and I liked that they had either a balcony or a patio. They had outdoor space, and I did like that. It was also in a very attractive area, and there were a lot of wetlands around it. It was a pretty place.

Rice Estate is a brand new facility. It seemed nice and clean, and most of the staff seemed nice. The residents looked happy. I would say the rooms were clean.
