Assisted Living Communities in Anchorage, AK

"I moved into Miller Farm Place. It has been great. The employees are very helpful, and the communication is good. I bought a bed and actually, they put it together for me. One reason I came here is that they do accept cats. I have a cat, and they do not charge for the cats, while almost every place else charges for cats. I got the smallest apartment, but there's room for a queen-sized bed. I chose to get a full-size bed instead. It has one window looking out over the backyard, a good-sized bathroom that I can turn around in, and an open shower, without the tub, and a very small kitchenette, but it has a refrigerator and microwave, so it's big enough for anything I would need because they provide all the meals. There's an area big enough for my recliner, TV, and a small kitchen-style table. It's adequate for my needs, for one person. The activities are great. I haven't been on an outing from here, but as I understand it, they do have outings to different things in the area. But here, just about once a week, we do some sort of crafts, and they have chair exercises that we do. We had a karaoke, one of the nurses performed, he sang different songs, and we could either sing along or just listen, or sing it ourselves. That was nice. They have bingo, cards, those types of things, and games and puzzles. They're very active about it. If they're going to have an activity and you aren't there, they come and knock on the door and ask if you want to come. So, they're very good. The activities director is great. So far, almost all of the meals have been great and they're hot. There's a cook on site that does the cooking there. It's not food that's made, frozen, and brought in. They have fruits every day, at least once a day, and they have plenty of vegetables. The food's good, and it's seasoned well. I'm very pleased with the food. Everything is well maintained, and housekeeping does a great job. I'm just very pleased with it. It's in a nice area, and the facility is great. Also, it's not too big, It's only got like 45 residents, so it's not as big as some of the others were."

"We chose Horizon House primarily because they would allow my mother in law to have her cat. The staff was great with her. We tried the food, and it was very good. She has a studio with a bathroom and kitchen, and it is very clean. They are very slow to get things done on maintenance. "

"My mom is in Anchorage Pioneer Home. They've been very welcoming, and they call me with updates. It's an older building, so the rooms are kinda plain. The staff always greets us, talks to us, and answers any questions. They were going through a remodel when I sat with my mom during lunch. They don't do a lot of activities. They had a plan for Mother's Day, but it got canceled because they had a COVID outbreak. They had a chapel and a salon. They had a little shop there, too."
