Assisted Living Communities in Delaware, OH

"I like the feel of Brookdale Muirfield. The staff I met seemed very nice. I really liked the patio area that residents are allowed to go out to. Regarding amenities, they're all comparable to what I was looking at over where my mom is at right now. There's a garden area, and a beauty salon, and all that. They have activities for them. The biggest thing is they keep the residents busy every day. The staff who gave the tour was very trustworthy and very friendly. They explained everything really well. The best thing about this community is all the activities they had, and that outdoor space that the residents were allowed to go into on their own."

"I live here at Danbury Columbus. I am independent living and my husband is assisted living. The place is really lovely. I have a lovely two-bedroom two-bath apartment which I'm happy with. We have a gorgeous dining room. We have various rooms in the building which are used for various activities. I'm very happy. I participate in what I can and what I want to do. I can't say that there's anything not right about it. You can't love everything but I feel as though I'm at least liked by the staff. To me there's really nothing not to like about it. They have bingo and religious services, Protestant and Catholic denomination. We have a wind down every week or every other week. They do crafts. They have card games if you want to participate. We have three meals a day. Breakfast starts at 7:30 and ends at 9:00. Lunch is served at 11:30 until 1:00. Dinner is served from 4:30 until 6:00. They have an area outside the building that you can walk. It's a good walking distance, and for physical therapy it's wonderful. The staff is wonderful. I feel very comfortable with them. They'll do anything that I ask them to do within reason. I feel that I'm well liked by the staff. We can't please everybody. There are some that like what's being served most of the time, and there are some that like what is being served all of the time. They offer you alternatives, so you'll never go hungry. They are very clean and they're very particular about it. Not everybody participates in activities because not everybody is well enough to do so, but whoever does, they're happy with it. I'm getting my money's worth. We live in a very nice community. I'm very safe here. You're provided with three meals a day. You are provided housekeeping once a week. They do laundry for you. There's nothing that's left out. I feel that the people here are getting their optimal care and everyone here at Danbury does have a reason for being here."

"I toured the assisted living facility of Sunrise of Dublin. I was very pleased with the facility, the people I talked to, the staff, and everything. I would recommend this facility to anybody. I thought that was an outstanding facility."

"My mom moved into the memory care area at Dublin Retirement Village in March, right before the facility had to restrict visitation due to the virus. Despite the shutdown, the staff and caregivers made every effort to keep residents happy and families connected. They went above and beyond to help my mom adjust to her new surroundings and the virus restrictions. They have done a good job keeping all residents safe during this pandemic. Now that we can visit outside, they have set up numerous stations for safe visitation with family members, which has been wonderful. I would definitely recommend this memory care facility."

"My friend is now at Brookdale Trillium Crossing. I like the facility. I like the entranceway in that it opens up into the dining room so that there's kind of a sense of community there. I like the fact that she had only been there about three weeks, but the person at the front desk called her by name when we walked out. She's in assisted living, and one of the assistants there wanted to make sure that my friend knew that if we were leaving, we needed to sign back in. She had left before with someone else and didn't sign back in. So, I thought that was good that the person on her floor brought that up to her and walked back and showed her where the back door was if she wanted to go out the back way. She asked my friend if she had a fob so she could get in the back door, and my friend did not, so she said, 'Okay, I'll make sure that you get one.' To me, that exhibited that they were keeping a close eye on her whereabouts as they should. My friend's apartment is accommodating some of her furniture that was pretty big. The ceilings are fairly high. Even though it's only a one-bedroom apartment, the ceiling gives you the feeling that it's much larger than it is. The bathroom is a nice big size. She has a full kitchen. Her furniture seems to fit in there pretty well. My friend is still unpacking, but I thought that was pretty good. For activities, I know they have a pool, but it was not open at the time because they were doing something to it. My friend likes the fact that they go out shopping every Wednesday and she can get on a travel van and go with whoever else is going shopping, and she can go to the local stores. I like that. She likes the selection of food, and she's very picky. She likes the food, and of course, that's important. She has the option to bring it back to her room, which she is doing because her room is pretty close by. I know she's doing an exercise class, too. So, I was very happy that she was getting into that right away. "

"My experience with Danbury in Westerville has been exceptional. As a facility entrusted with the care of my aging parents, Danbury has consistently exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The facility is impeccably clean and well-kept. From the moment you step inside, you can immediately sense the dedication to maintaining a comfortable and hygienic environment for residents. I believe this type of attention to detail speaks volumes about their overall commitment to quality. What truly distinguishes Danbury, however, is its staff. In all my interactions, from administrative personnel to caregivers, I have encountered individuals who are not only highly professional but also genuinely caring. Their compassion and dedication to their work are evident in the way they treat residents and family members alike. My parents are in memory care, and I am grateful for the opportunities they have to engage in the 5 to 6 activities offered daily. These activities are designed especially for memory care residents and include things like sing-alongs, pet therapy, storytelling, and chair exercise. They have even taken 'field trips' which allow residents to get out and experience the beautiful parks nearby. Another standout feature of Danbury is their food services. The meals provided are nutritious and, according to my mother, delicious, thus ensuring residents are well-nourished and satisfied. Most importantly, the nursing and caregiving staff at Danbury approach their work with a profound sense of respect and dignity, which has been incredibly reassuring for my family. Knowing that my parents are safe and in such capable and compassionate hands brings us great peace of mind."

"We went to Bickford of Worthington. The building seemed very open and very comfortable. The staff members were friendly and knowledgeable. They seemed to be very supportive of the residents there. They were open with information. If I had any questions or if I thought of anything, they were ready to answer whatever my concerns were in preparation for my grandmother. They had various sizes of rooms. The ones I got to see were the smaller ones. Depending on what size of room you might need, they had a schedule based on how much you could pay. I think it was either per day or per week or something like that. The place looked clean and well-kept from what I could tell. I didn't get a chance to try their food. It smelled good though. From what I could see, it looked like the people were comfortable."

"I toured the assisted living facility of Alpine House Of Columbus. I like that when you go in, they have the black iron work and all the trees in the community area, and where you eat. I like that part. I did not like the apartment space because it didn't have a stove. I would really like to have a small kitchen, a bedroom, and a bath. I didn't like that when you walked in the door, you could see the whole apartment. I also did not like the area. The tour was great, though. They also mentioned that the meals and snacks are included, and I like that part."

"My brother has moved into Brookdale Westerville. He and his wife were both happy with it. They chose it because the place was clean and nice, and the residents when we visited seemed happy. I know the price had something to do with it, too, because memory care is expensive. The staff is very friendly and the nurses are very kind. According to my brother, the food is delicious. I know they've got activities. I know they do stuff with him, but we haven't been there long enough. It's very clean."

"I will move into The Village of Westerville. The first thing was that the facility manager invited me and my friend to have lunch there, and the food was delicious. It's very nice on the first floor, and the courtyard at the back. I'm very impressed by the whole facility. Everyone was friendly. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. They had a small refrigerator and a small stove. The building is built like a square, with a courtyard in the middle. They also have seating spaces in front of the building and different places outside."

"My tour of Oakleaf Village of Columbus was nice. It was a wonderful place. Britney was very knowledgeable about the facility. The room was nice; it was almost like an apartment and it could offer a great deal of independence to my mom. The facility was clean. What I liked most about the facility was that the dining room area was almost like a restaurant to the point where you could order food any time of day. It was like limitless food and it was included in your package. It looked almost gourmet-like; it wasn't cafeteria-style or undesirable looking. It was nice looking too, which to me was important. I think it was during Halloween that I was there, so everything looked nicely decorated. The staff was very pleasant and very warm."

"This place was the answer to our prayers. Her apartment is the perfect size and close to the activity room. We like that we can come visit her anytime- even eat meals with her. Thank you for the Walnut Crossing team for keeping her safe, healthy and engaged!"

"I visited Westerwood. They have a lot of variation in services and a lot of things to do. I liked that place. The guy sat down, took a lot of time with me, and went over stuff with me. He went over everything thoroughly with me. I interacted with the receptionist there. She was very accommodating. The facility looked very nice. They had a studio, a one-bedroom, and a two-bedroom. They had a lot of different types of facilities. They had their bank in there. They had an actual weight room in there. They had a little bit of everything. Anything you wanted, they had there. They have somebody in there to help you walk better. They have physical therapy onsite. They have movie nights, and they have a choir. They have things to do all day long if you want to."

"Heritage Senior Living of Marysville was really nice. It was big, roomy, super clean, and you could tell it was newer than others. They had a lot of amenities there, so it was very nice. They had a salon option there, though it was not included in the cost, they had a theater built-in, they had actual chapel services there, they had a whole coffee area, and an actual bar where they can have games and get drinks. The staff I had an interaction with was very nice and knowledgeable, and she was good. The dining area was very nice, and there was plenty of sitting room. It had a very nice ambiance, it was by a fireplace, and everything else there was nice. Their rooms were nice. They were also roomy and very clean, and new and freshly painted. Everything was kind of upscale. Their maintenance was excellent."
