Assisted Living Communities in Owensboro, KY

"We toured Woodmont Health Campus. The staff was definitely the thing I like the best. The thing I like the least is that it was a bigger facility. I like the small facility. The staff had a lot of responsibilities, so they were managing quite a lot. The food was amazing. There was variety, quality, and nutritive value. The facilities are well-maintained and spacious. They have tons of activities that go on. The activities director is constantly working to bring new things in and make it exciting for the residents."

"My sister moved into Dogwood Retreat and it's very good so far. They are kind, caring, professional, clean, and trustworthy. They do what they say they're going to do and you can count on them to remind the residents to take their medication on time, they don't steal, and they don't bully. The activities inside the facility are a five."

"Primrose Retirement Community of Newburgh was good. It's a very nice facility. They don't have very much availability right now, but they offer a lot of amenities. They have an enclosed garage, upstairs and downstairs apartments, a theater room, a pub, assisted living care, independent living, and memory care. They have all sorts of activities, and there's a lot of community involvement. The rooms were nice. They're very, very roomy, and I think they offer anything a person could want. It's in a good spot too. It's peaceful but still not too far from places. The staff was very personable and didn't really rush me through things. I expected to be there for about an hour tops, but I think I was there for over two hours. So, she didn't rush me by any means; instead she showed me things, answered my questions, and provided me with the information I needed."

"We chose Heritage Woods of Newburgh for my mother-in-law because the staff is permanent. They're not hired by temporary services. They all knew everybody and the friendliness of everybody there was amazing, even people in the hallways. We know our mother-in-law would talk to everybody. She's a talker and we feel she would fit perfectly there. Once she's there, they said she won't ever get moved to another place. She'll just stay there and that was good. Also, we liked the room, and the room layout, and we're going to get her one of those necklace pendants, even though they have a remote in the rooms. We just thought it was the friendliest group of people that knew everybody and everybody knows everybody. It was a good fit for her. Not only that, she's 5 minutes away from two of her relatives, so that's good, too. People can just stop in and visit her. We like their exercise room with a few small weights because she uses them at home. I think she would go down there and do that. They had some other group activities or some exercise classes. We've seen the menus and how they change and the people pick the meals. The rooms were up-to-date and very comfortable to move around in and even showers and bathing. They had somebody on every floor 24/7."

"After making it nearly 70 years living independently my great-grandmother finally has had to move to a community that can better care for her. She moved into Oakwood about 3 years ago. The first time I went to visit her I didn't exactly expect to be wow'ed by her living conditions. Most similar places I've been in our area seem to be little more then places to house the sick and dying. The first thing I noticed in Oakwood was the feeling that I was in more of a community instead of a hospital type setting. The main lobby is nicely decorated, the grounds are well kept, and there seemed to be plenty of commons areas with people actually using them playing cards. I didn't find my grandmother bed-ridden in her room but had to use one of the helpful employees roaming the halls to direct me to an area where she and some of her new friends were playing cards. From numerous other wonderful visits I can say that Oakwood Health Campus is definitely leagues above pretty much every other assisted living community in this area. Everything from the staff to the amenities is top notch. "

"Colonial Senior Living is very nice and new. It has been open for two years now. The staff members are most accommodating and very kind. The food is magnificent. It is home-cooking; it is excellent. I have a 2-bedroom where I have one big bathroom and a patio. Our breakfast is served from 7 to 9 a.m., lunch is served from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. and evening dinner is 5 to 7 p.m. We have exercises, Bible studies, bingo, and cooking activity. A girl comes around in a van and she brings us books from the library. She comes every week. She finds out what you like and provides books of your selection. Once a month we go out and have dinner some place, and they provide transportation for us."

"Colonial Assisted Living is in my hometown, that's number one and he knows people out there, that's number two. I think the level of care is really good so that's what we like. We'd eaten there and the food is great. The facility is very well maintained. They had a lot of options and the staff is very good. We are all satisfied. "

"My mom stayed at The Homeplace of Henderson. I would highly recommend them. I was very, very pleased. It's an excellent place. The facility was exceptional, very clean, and well-run. They had exceptional management. The food was very good. My mom was quite happy with the place. The activities seemed to be pretty good."

"I liked Oasis Dementia Care because it was not very crowded and they have a lot of nice programs. I liked their studio apartments because they were very nice. "

"My mom was in one of the wings in Redbanks, and she loved it. I didn't have any issues with any of the staff there and my mom really enjoyed all of the staff. She became friends with the nurses and liked the food. I haven't had any complaints and she didn’t have any complaints. I think the staff is friendly and definitely something worth checking out. My mom would not be upset if she had to go back there. They have a lot of activities going on, and there's always someone she could talk to. She liked all of her therapists, and all the nurses and staff are very nice. "

"the rooms were adequate. the food was excellent. the staff were friendly."

"River Pointe was great. The only thing was that they don't want to accept VA down there. However, the staff was very nice. The way everything was set up was gorgeous. That would be best spot for dad, and he even said he would like to go there. They had three different sizes of rooms. They were adequate for what would be needed. "

"My aunt moved into Silver Birch of Evansville. They have been absolutely amazing. Their communication is fantastic. They are very welcoming. I don't have anything bad to say about them. For her, she has medication and shower assistance. She has three meals a day that are cooked for her. They do outings. They clean the room twice a week and do her laundry. They have an art room. They have game rooms. They have activities available all throughout the day. They have arts and crafts and games."

"Riverwalk Communities is great. I'd recommend it. The staff is very caring and the food is great. Everybody's polite and helpful. We have bingo, church, and music bands playing. I love it here."
