Aspen Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center was very clean and welcoming. We would have probably chosen that for my mom if we could afford it. The staff gave me the information that I needed and answered my questions appropriately during my tour. It's a memory care and the place felt homey. They had a beauty salon there and the dining room was fine. They had it set up so conversations could take place.

My husband has ALZ and I have spend a lot of time learning about the disease and what to expect and the important points of proper care. All of the care givers and staff practice these points. My husband has been there a year now and he is healthy and safe. For my health, knowing that he is well taken care of has been a godsend.
Provider Response
Thank you so much for your kind works. It's an honor to be able to care for your husband.

I visited this facility
We visited Aspen Ridge, and it was not as open, airy, and sunny as the other place. It seemed dark and crowded in terms of space. It was all on one floor. I met the director.

My mother was in Aspen Ridge. The facility was very nice and clean, and had lots of windows and nice, big rooms. They had two people to a room with full-size closets, and they could bring in a recliner and a chair. However, the food was not good; I was very dissatisfied because everything was out of a can. The staff was friendly, but I didn't think they had enough training and couldn't control mom. The laundry was a problem as her clothes would get mixed up, or Mom wouldn't get all of her clothing back.
Provider Response

Aspen Ridge seems very nice, everybody seems really caring, and I think it is going well. My mother-in-law has a shared room, which is medium-sized and has 2 beds. The room is clean. They do walking for fitness and worship on Sundays. They have all kinds of activities like puzzles, so it looks like they do a lot.
