Assisted Living Communities in Land O Lakes, FL

"It was wonderful and had a very homey feeling. I was impressed. Carolyn, who showed me around, was great, very informative, and she wasn't pushy at all. She wants the right fit for my mom, which I thought was great. I really liked it. It's not the fanciest, it's kind of middle of the road, but it was very clean, and nice. They had a studio, a one-bedroom, and a two-bedroom. The two-bedrooms available were very large. The studios, she said, vary a little bit in size. I saw several of them, and they were decent-size studios. I did not see a one-bedroom because they were all occupied. They had arts and crafts, a movie room, a library, a sitting area outside for the memory part, a dining room, and a physical therapy room that had exercise equipment. I looked at the assisted living, but they also showed me the memory care for future use. I did get to meet the arts and crafts people, but I didn't get to meet any of the nursing staff."

"I'm currently staying here. It is a very wide, open and spacious complex. The staff is excellent. From day one, they knew my name. They're always available when you call them. They serve a very good variety of food. It is very good especially their soup. "

"My father was in The Colonnade at Northdale for a few weeks before he passed away. They're very good, highly recommended. They're very friendly people, it's very clean and they're very helpful. They offered me a sample meal, but I did not have a chance to try it. The value of the money is very good. Everybody was in masks, wherever the patients were, staff or visitors. They were constantly cleaning and disinfecting the place."

"A mid size ALF, Shady Palms stands independently. This is a beautiful building and it truely cares about its residents. In my opinion the lighting in this building seems insitutional. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The yard is well manicured. There is a plentyfull amount of parking. "

"My mother will be moving into Angels Senior Living at New Tampa memory care unit. So far, so good. We have to move our own furniture in, but the room was clean and the size was good for us. The staff was nice, and they have good service. They have activities, but very simple ones. They have everything inside. They're pretty new."

"It is a very big community. They have several floors. It is the best one I've visited. It's very clean and very well structured. The staff was very nice and seemed to be concerned about our situation. However, in the end, they couldn't help us because of my brother's criminal record in the past. The dining area was set up like a hotel. The private room was nice and roomy, and it had a bathroom. The residents all seemed happy and engaged in whatever activity they were doing."

"Emeritus at Carrollwood was a beautiful facility. The staff was fabulous. You can see that they really love their jobs. They were very kind and seemed very concerned. They seemed to have a very good system of making sure that all the residents are all well cared for. I went to their St. Patrick's Day themed event, and that to me was really even more beneficial than the tour because I got to actually interact with the staff, and that's how I could tell that the staff really did their jobs. They seemed to really care about their residents. They were really nice and really a lot of fun. They just seemed very energetic and very helpful. They also have activities there. Just last week, they invited us back to an activity, which I thought was very nice. They have a game room where they have games and stimulation for the seniors. Also, the food there was delicious. Everything about the community is favorable for me. It really works with what they charge because the community is absolutely beautiful. Aside from assisted living, they also offer memory care. I definitely would recommend them to others without hesitation. "

"We chose SeaCoast at Uptown Oaks for my parents because of a combination of things. How big the apartments were, the price, and how friendly and personable the staff was. They're very flexible, warm, and personable. The apartment was large and affordable, but I'm not that impressed with the food. They have a lot of activities, they take them places and they have a lot going on. It's pretty nice and peaceful, with a lot of shade and a lot of greenery. It's very comfortable. I think they could use a little more upkeep."

"It was very beautiful, nice, and clean. The people were nice in there and everybody that I saw looked happy being there. They showed me their amenities, like the gym."

"Promise Pointe just recently opened and seemed very nice. I was impressed with the facility. The studio my mom was looking at was big enough for what she needed."

"We went to Sunflower Springs. I liked the newness and the cleanliness. I liked the fact that the staff and everybody seemed to like everybody, including the residents. I didn't like the fact that they had no pool or stove. The rest of it was nice, but it was on the high end of very expensive. The tour was great. They have a theater, and they have an ice cream parlor. They have arts and crafts."

"My mom was the very best story teller. Oftentimes, we would sit in the evening and she would tell me stories about her childhood, about her teen years, or about her career years. I was always mesmerized by the detail she would provide. In addition she would spend endless hours answering my unending questions about the topic of choice. Dementia has robbed my mom of that ability. My mom now relies on my ability to recall and story tell those precious memories. When you are looking for a community to care for your loved one, it is critical that you find one that creates new memories for you to share with your loved one. Today was a PERFECT example of how the staff provided that opportunity. Two minibus loads of residents were provided the opportunity to picnic at Anderson Park on Lake Tarpon with their loved ones. Residents experienced the outdoors in ways they typically would not. The residents felt the warmth of the sun with the most delightful breeze passing through the pavilion on the edge of Lake Tarpon. I cannot count the number of times my mom told me how much she loved being in this environment. The perfect description of the day came when a resident said to the director who was escorting the resident to the bus, “You have such a wonderful family.” The resident was referring to all the staff and residents who attended the picnic. THIS is the environment for which I will be eternally grateful my mom experiences each and every day. "

"I stayed in Oakview Terrace Assisted Living & Memory Care. Patty was wonderful. She manned the phones. She was great. She knew that I had a dog, so she would give my dog treats all the time. That's wonderful. Everybody likes that. They had much better activities; they had bingo. It was a nicer place, much better. The food is not enough, a very small amount, it took them forever to come out and feed you. You sit around there for hours on end waiting for the food to come out."
