Assisted Living Communities in Bartlesville, OK

"I toured Green Country Village. It was a good visit. The person I'm working with there is great. They've had a good response. My mother is on a waiting list there. I hear so many wonderful things about it. The rooms were very clean and very nice. I have tried the food, and the dining is just lovely and the food is good. It is like going to a restaurant. I haven't interacted with many people, but the people that I have interacted with are great. One woman there is going to keep in close contact with me. They have a lovely area where their residents can walk."

"Brookdale Bartlesville North was very nice and very clean. Kerry is the lady who took us on the tour. She's very sweet and very nice. The room has a living room, a bedroom, and a bathroom. They're one-bedroom units. Their kitchens were a little bit bigger than some that I've been to, which I like because I still want to make desserts of our own, and I don't want to completely quit cooking. They had different rooms, but we only looked at one. They had a dining room and a game room. People play bingo and stuff. The staff said they had entertainment come in. It's clean and it smelled good. It didn't have a urine smell. I met two staff, and they seemed nice. Kerry is very nice, too. I belong to a dementia group that meets twice a month, and she comes to that, now that her father's living with her, which is good. It makes me feel like she's part of the crowd. "

"My father has only been in Brookdale Bartlesville South (formerly Sterling House of Bartlesville South) for about five weeks, but he has done very well. The staff is very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. They do exercise programs and take them out on outings. They bring in home health, so he has physical therapy and OT. He seems to eat well. The room is nice. They need a nurse RN there consistently. Several of them are just on-call and someone needs to be in-house. "

"My mother will be moving into Asbury Village. She needs someone there for meals, for med reminders and just to do laundry and stuff like that. We had looked at it about a year ago, and we liked it, but because of some financial reasons, we couldn't put her there. I remember everybody being nice. The lady remembered my mother and still had information on her, so we were kind of happy about that. She was helpful. She provided everything that we needed for her. The layout was nice because they had an area where she could go out and sit. They had an area for books and things like that, so she was not just sitting up in her room. The rooms were a little bit small to her liking, but to me, it is what she needs. She doesn't need a whole lot. It seemed a little bit of a peaceful building. I think what sold us was the lady. She still remembered the things that we kind of questioned about, and she answered all our questions. She remembered a lot of stuff about my mom."

"My husband goes to Elder Care two times a week. He goes twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays. He goes from 9 to 4. I have been using them for three months now. It's very nice and well-designed. The people are very nice. They play bingo, they do artwork, they play games and puzzles, and they do all that to keep people busy. They feed my husband breakfast and lunch. They have many bathrooms, so they don't have to wait in line or anything. You can go five days a week or four days a week. They have lots of people. They greet you at the door. They bring my husband out the door when I drive up to get him. There are people at the desk to take my husband's blood pressure and write down his weight on Tuesdays and Thursdays. They have a library if they want to read, and they have a library of puzzles if you want to work on a puzzle. The staff are very nice. They call my husband by name. They call him Buddy. The staff are always very friendly. They have two buses. They pick up and deliver the people back home, but we just live about four blocks from there, so I take him and pick him up myself. "

"My friend is a resident at Bartlesville Assisted Living. The place is very warm. It's not like home, but close to it. They have very capable, very friendly, and very personable employees there. Her room is very nice. She has her bed in there and there's a room for a TV and a couch, but she doesn't have a kitchen. The dining area looks classy, very warm and inviting with long black wood tables. They have an outside patio and they can garden out there if they want to but they have to have a nurse or an assistant with them at all times."
