The Best Assisted Living Communities in Salt Lake County, UT

"Legacy Village of Sugar House is very clean. They offer a lot of amenities. The one-bedroom is very, very spacious, nice, and very clean. No marks on the walls. The carpets have been cleaned. There are awesome views and happier people. The staff were very friendly and eager to assist. It's almost brand new. It's like a skyrise apartment kind of place. It's really neat. They have a good-sized gym and a beauty shop with three different chairs to get your hair done. They offer everything."

"We like everything about Sunrise of Sandy. They seemed to have a really nice facility. They have nice decor and furnishings and tons of activities. The amount of care and levels of care that they offer, like you can get more if you need it or less if you need it. We didn't really have much we didn't like. The lady who gave the tour was super, super helpful and very knowledgeable. The building was very clean and we liked the structure. There are railings on every wall. The rooms were really nice. It felt like a really homey place."

"My mom has moved into Legacy House of South Jordan. I chose them because I was just comfortable with the environment. I really like the homey feeling and the way it is set up as far as activities and the different little apartments that they stay in. I was just impressed with it. The staff are very welcoming, and they've been great to Mom so far. They're very friendly and patient, and they have an upbeat attitude. The food is very good, too. I even had some with my mom and she liked it. They offer a lot of options. They have daily activities. They have a different range of things that people might be interested in. It's obviously up to the residents how involved they want to be. They seem to have a pretty nice schedule set up for different interests that they might have. The activity coordinator is very outgoing, fun, and friendly. She came and met my mom personally. It just seems like they have a lot planned. My mom's room is very nice, and that's another thing that I like. It was very clean, and it was just ready for her, like brand-new looking. It has a little kitchenette in it. Everything is very nice, and I am impressed with how updated it is."

"I like that Cedarwood at Sandy is going to be close to family. Their food is excellent and their two-bedroom apartment is very large. They also have little cottages. Their rooms were the largest two-bedroom ones we saw. The upkeep was excellent. Their dining area was nice."

"My friend will go to Crescent Senior Living. She has Parkinson's, and there is a distinct possibility of her losing memory as she gets older, and that has the memory care unit attached to it, so she wouldn't have to move as far. We did the assisted living because that's where she would be going. I liked the wide halls. The staff was great. It was beautiful. It was a full meal that I had, and what I appreciated was that I had some fairly restrictive dietary needs, and they were very good about it. The chef came out to talk to us, and they did a very nice job there."

"Sarah Daft Home is a small place. They seem to know each other there. It's very home-like. My husband's room was kept clean. He was well taken care of and he liked the food very much when he was there. The dining room was a big open room with tables for four people. The surroundings were very pleasant. It had a nice view from the windows. The dining room doubles as a social room at times, but they also have a separate social room. Then they have people that come in for entertainment. They played bingo, had a van that took people on outings, and women who came in to cut their hair."

"I toured Valencia at Draper. They have a lot of things going on to help keep the patients busy doing things to keep them happy. The rooms are pretty good. I thought that the studio apartment is a little small, but under the circumstances and depending on what you're going to do with it, it's still OK. The place was well kept. The dining area was good, well kept, and it had plenty of room. The staff members were great. They were very attentive. They stayed with us the whole time and answered any questions that we had. You couldn't ask for better people to ask questions and to help you with whatever you needed."

"We went to Copper Creek Senior Living. It was a nice new facility. It was very open, bright, and cheery. The person who gave the tour was very engaged, upbeat, and cheerful. They had physical therapy and hospice onsite, and I think they also had a dentist that came in periodically onsite. There was a beauty salon and an outdoor patio."

"I was quite impressed with Capitol Hill Senior Living. It was very nice. Jason was very helpful. He explained everything. He took me on a tour of the entire facility. It was quite lovely. I was impressed with both the memory care and the assisted living part. They showed me everything. They showed me all the activities, the beauty shop, the dining room, and the music room. The rooms were private."

"My mother is in Spring Gardens Draper. They were very open and congenial to work with. We found a room that was a studio but seemed oversized, which made it convenient for her to set up with her furniture. We did add a wardrobe closet for her in addition to the closet that was there, and that works well. She gets attentive assistance whenever she requests it to help her go to the bathroom or to take her down to the dining room for dinner. They are consistent in cleaning her room every week. They have daily entrees, which are unique, but they also have a side menu that you can order from at any time which includes hamburgers, salads, cheese sandwiches, alternate menu choices if someone doesn't like what the main course is. I think the activities are excellent."

"We went to Sagewood at Daybreak. It was the nicest community we visited. They had really good food. The people said hi to the staff as we walked through, so evidently they're friendly and welcoming. The only reason we didn't choose that one was that it was farther away from our children, and it was very expensive. Nevertheless, the facility was clean, nice, neat, and very new."

"This is a small facility, sixteen resident capacity, and the facility itself is not overly beautiful or anything, but this facility has a lot of heart. I've rarely seen a facility that puts as much emphasis on family then this one does. The staff bends over backwards to accommodate family visits, even if they aren't at the best times. They also invite family to all the parties and get togethers and encourage family participation. I've never visited this facility without seeing at least two or three different residents with visitors at any given time, and they're always talking and laughing and generally just having a good time. I also always see children there visiting their grandparents or great grandparents. They literally just light the place up. "

"The people who work at BeeHive Homes of Draper are very caring and accommodating. They have gone out of their way to make my mom feel at home. Just great service. Absolutely wonderful. It's only been four days, but I know my daughter was there today in the activities. A group came and got my mom and they did exercises together, so I know it's functioning. They have music people come in and play for the residents, which is lovely. Yesterday, my daughter-in-law went to visit my mom and the sweet lady who runs the kitchen saw that she was there and she said, "Let me serve you and your mom trout in your room." They had a fish lunch together in my mother's room. That's really above and beyond I would think. My mom's very happy with the meals. I've certainly seen other facilities that are bigger and newer, but I'm happy with what she has. The day we were moving them in the staff came and helped us like carry boxes. The man who does all the repairs came in and hung TVs and hung things and made sure everything was absolutely the way my mom wanted it. I just received such personalized attentiveness as we moved Mom in. I'm so impressed with those people. The repairman who manages everything is wonderful. He's just a marvelous man. There's assisted living in one building and memory care in another. It's very small. There are only 16 residents, so it's a wonderful family kind of a feeling. Everybody knows everybody and it's a very intimate home. I was looking for something like that, and I'm so glad we found it."

"My mom will be moving into Legacy House of Bountiful. We chose it because she wanted a wider variety of food and a different atmosphere. She likes that it's a bit smaller without being too small, and she felt treated so well when she was on her tour. She felt like they listened to her concerns. Their property is gorgeous. The inside, the rooms, the fish tanks, and the common areas were just gorgeous and very classy. They offer a wide variety of food and times that you can get the food, and I like that their mail delivery is more private. She liked the variety of room sizes. They weren't all cookie-cutter. They've got super friendly staff. It's a very lovely facility. They let the people who are there vote and do add-ons to their menu. They're big on letting the residents have a choice of favorites to make sure that they're meeting their needs."
