My sister has been living at Amber Lights for 2 years now. It is a very nice place. She's happy where she is and she's doing well. She likes the climate there. She's in a well-cared-for place. They have a nursing staff that takes people that can stay there until they pass away. One of her favorite things to do is to go up to the dining room and visit with people and walk around the outside on the sidewalks because it's really warm weather there most of the year. Everybody is friendly and the place is clean. She has people who come in to help check on her regularly and give her her meds. We've been there several times, and the food is really good. There are lots of activities. People choose to do the activities they want to do.

I went to Amber Lights. They're friendly, warm, and clean. The room was larger than the other place I looked at. It's a one-bedroom plus a den and it's available now. The salesperson was very friendly and went out of his way to make sure that we were comfortable, and we answered every question he had. He invited us for lunch, and we sat at the table for a long time, and several of the staff members came over to meet me, from the driver to doctors' appointments, to the administrative director, the chef, and other staff members. The dining area was clean, had good service, and has generous portions. I ordered a rice pudding dessert, and I found out they have ice cream, so I ordered that, too, and they brought it. They went out of their way to be nice. They had a flier for happy hour that afternoon. The next day, they were having an open house with a jazz band and New Orleans dinner with jambalaya, crayfish, and gumbo and they were excited about doing that. I would like to have gone to that. That's the kind of activities that I'm talking about that I don't think that the other place has.

We had a great tour with Kelly, He answered all our questions and filled us in on many more things we didn't even think about that will be very helpful. The rooms were very nice and light with all the windows as was the restaurant. All the staff were very friendly and efficient. They were having music that afternoon for Octoberfest and snacks and some German food on the menu which sounded very good. We did have lunch there and it was very good. There were many activities to enjoy so feel I would be quite comfortable there. I'm not quite ready to move but they will certainly be at the top of my list.

When you apply to Amber Lights, a medical assessment is done to decide if they can meet your needs. Our sister’s needs are not hidden. In addition to diabetes and high blood pressure, she has heart failure causing edema and needs wound care. Amber Lights accepted her anyway. She paid to have the carpet replaced with tile because of concern about incontinence caused by the high doses of diuretics that she takes for the heart failure. She cannot pack and unpack, so she paid for movers to do that for her. After exactly three months, she went to the hospital for an infected wound and then had to go to a rehab center. Two and a half months later, they said that she no longer needed specialized nursing, but Amber lights said that she could not return. They told us that it was because she needed care that was “beyond their medical licensure.” We offered to bring in private nurses, but they still said “no”. Our sister is not without fault. Evidently, she was demanding and difficult to work with. She was told by the doctor, by the rehab center and at least one Amber Lights staff member that was the real reason that they wouldn’t let her return. During the months that she was not there, she paid for the basic rent, board and services. At the end, she was also charged for an additional month of level two assisted living services, because they said the contract required it. In spite of Covid19, they allowed movers to go in and remove her furniture and belongings. My advice is, “choose carefully”. Consider whether there is any chance that your medical condition will require more than the most basic care because that is all that they claim to provide. If they can say that your needs are “beyond their licensure”, they can kick you out without any notice. (Our sister’s needs are now being well met at another assisted living facility that probably has the same license.)

Amber Lights is a very good place. Mom has already made friends, and they’ve been very good to her. Megan is delightful and very helpful. She had bent over backwards to help out. The staff that takes care of Mom is very lovely and very caring. The dining area is quite luxurious and beautiful. The wait staff this morning was lovely, smiling, and friendly. The food is very good. They have exercise and Zumba every day. They also have an outdoor pool. They will be having sing-along and music soon.
