Mountain Park Senior Living

From the initial walk through with Brenda C the process to get my friend Ken O very pleasant and easy. Since his check in Brenda, Kevin and the entire staff have been extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful in all aspects of Ken’s set up and move in. They have been especially helpful in working with Ken on daily activities due to his bimentia. I would be happy to give any referrals or personal testimony upon request.

The first time I walked into Mountain Park, I thought I was in a resort. The physical facility is amazing... but it's the people who really make it special. From the management, to the medical team, the supervisors and the staff... they bend over backwards to handle your every need and take away your stress. We found other places that weren't as nice and cost a lot more. They provide everything... meals, cleaning, laundry, medical, dental, pharmacy and beautiful day rooms where the staff provides guided activities. The location is excellent. There is a Target at a mall that's almost walking distance. My wife and I joked that we look forward to the day we can move in. Actually, we weren't joking.

Mountain Park was too large and too expensive. However, the environment was very good. They had a swimming pool, theater, and a gym for exercise.

I visited Mountain Park. I went on a Saturday during mid-morning. That was Kentucky Derby weekend, I remember, and one of the bigger rooms was set up for watching horseracing. It looked like they were about to have some fun. The facility itself was OK. They did have independent living section, but I was unable to visit that section because nothing was available to look at. They have the three different sections, but the independent living was separate from the assisted living although they are in the same community. It’s a pretty nice community. The only thing I didn’t like was the fact that I walked in the backdoor. As I was touring, there was a group of folks sitting in the game room playing some kind of card game. Then they had a little workout room, swimming pool, and a nurse on-staff. I was in the assisted living portion. They were pretty busy. It was lunchtime, so there were some folks that were having lunch and getting ready for horseracing. It’s a nice facility, but I wanted to see the independent living side of it. The assisted living side was OK because it had a nice library where residents could go in and out. They had a couple of computers in the library that residents had access to. It's not like you’re sitting around doing nothing. There’s things to do. It was pretty nice. I would consider it.
