Memory Care Reviews for Gull Point at Estero

March 29, 2022

By Carol

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My husband moved into Gull Point at Estero. So far, I'm satisfied. The food was outstanding on St. Patrick's Day. I couldn't believe it was that good. He's having a hard time adjusting, but I've only seen him twice, so I better go tomorrow. I dropped by on Saturday, and they were just watching TV. It seems like a quiet, clean place, and well-organized. So far, so good. I give it pretty good marks. I like the people. The two gals that I really worked with were Julie (who was a nurse practitioner) and the head of the place (her name is Lee). They both were just awesome. I couldn't have asked for more accommodating people for me. The only thing is they don't get back to you when you call. I called a couple of times, and they didn't return the calls for a couple of days. I can understand if you're busy. They do have a salon, and they have three courtyards that are nice. His room overlooks the courtyard. They keep the rooms locked, and I think that's to keep him from going in there and sleeping all day because that's what he did at home. It's clean. The chef is excellent, too. There's nobody around there screaming. It doesn't smell. It's almost new (at least it looks almost new), so they take good care of the place. He hasn't participated in anything. I think he goes to church and that's about it. It's a nice room. It faces a courtyard. He shares a bathroom, but there's nobody in that other room, so it's his private bathroom. They keep it nice and clean. They must keep it clean because I bought a brand new comforter, and when I went in on St. Patrick's Day, they were already washing it.

Thank you Carol for this great review. The team and I are here for the residents and the families as we do enjoy what we do. I am happy that you enjoyed the event for St Patrick's day. I do hope that you will be able to join us for the family brunch on April 16th from 11-1. Looking forward to seeing you again soon

Gull Point at Estero was very, very nice. We just wouldn't be able to afford it, but it was amazing. I would like to live there. It was clean and well managed. The staff was very kind and helpful. The facade looked nice. They had a nice area for everyone to go outside and relax, a gazebo and all that.

I toured the Gull Point at Estero last week. The staff was extremely informative, very helpful. The place was very clean, organized. The rooms were a nice size. They had definitely a choice to fit what you would be most comfortable to put your family member in. So you did have a choice to pick what would be the best fit. And they were nice locations. I'm dealing with memory care, that's what I need for my husband. I thought the activities and the structure were very good. They do evaluate from time to time. They will make sure that my husband is safe. There's enough staff. The staff ratio to patients is very good. I think they're very knowledgeable. I think you would feel comfortable putting a family member there.

Thank you Donna, We appreciate your review and look forward to seeing you soon.

Gull Point at Estero was very nice. It has a main atrium. They have assisted living on one side and memory care on the other side. It looked very much like it was bigger than the other place we went to. They weren't dog friendly, and they did not accept the Medicaid waiver; that made me discard it altogether. Nothing in the room is available. You have to buy your furniture; it's just a room. They were shut down, and they did not allow visitors because of COVID; the other place wasn't shut down. The staff who gave the visit was very nice. It was the director who showed us around, and he followed up on our visit quite a few times. It was also more expensive. They have activities for them, and they bring in music. The rooms were nice, large, and had large bathrooms. It's a very nice facility.

Provider Response

Sylvia, thank you very much for your review of the community. We are 100% memory care at the community here but operate under limited nursing services here in the community. The license to operate technically falls under the assisted-living licensing. With us being experts in the field of memory care we are able to provide high-quality care to all of our residents. As residents with memory impairment often forget to provide care for their pets we are a pet free community. We do have therapy animals that visit our community on a weekly basis and families may bring pets to the community for our out front visits with their loved ones. Gull Point at Estero strive to provide a communicable disease free environment for a residence we as other communities over this last year have had to shut for indoor visitations from time to time based on the county COVID-19 numbers. We are one of the only a few communities within two counties that has been Covid free for the entire 18 months of Covid. We feel that the reason we were able to maintain this successfully rate is due the fact that we close our community down when the numbers are high. Our residence with memory impairment are at higher risk should they develop Covid to adverse reactions. At this time we are open for families to visit here again. We provide visitation in the resident apartments in our library, and on our front porch. I welcome you to revisit our community as I’m sure you will be happy with the fact that we are once again open. As a provider for our residence we do keep abreast of changes in the community that would require us to help to protect our residence and to reduce visitation showed the numbers of COVID-19 increase again. Thank you so much for your candid opinion and I look forward to hopefully seeing you again.

Gull Point at Estero was nice. The staff was good. The rooms were nice. I didn't see them eating or anything, but they had a nice eating area. It looked like the staff was taking very good care of the residents there. The facility was very nice. They really looked after them. They kept them locked in and they screen the people coming in very well. They had outdoor stuff in the interior of the building, and they could go out there if they wanted to. It was nice, but it was just too hot. They had several different places they could go outside and walk around, and they would be safe in there. They had quite a bit of entertainment going on, and they had the people all out of their rooms, and it looked like they would keep them fairly busy.

I moved my mom from an ALF in Hallandale to Gull Point at Estero about a month ago. I wanted to be closer to her, and I also wasn’t very happy with where she was. After touring 4 different facilities, the decision was so simple! Upon arrival at Gull Point, I was very pleased with the appearance and cleanliness of the place. After meeting with the Director, Leigh, and meeting other staff members, touring the facility, seeing the residents engaged in daily activities, and listening to my gut :-), the decision was made! I have visited mom several times since she moved in. I’ve taken her out to breakfast, and I’ll be attending an event this week. I just love the family interaction, and warmth, the care, the professionalism, and cleanliness we have seen and experienced so far. I’m very excited for my mom. I feel so much better knowing she is there. Thank you, Gull Point!!

Provider Response

Due to covid, unable to see our loved one's room to see what else is needed, but the facility has exceeded out expectations. The staff have established a great relationship with the patient.

My mother is in Gull Point at Estero. So far, my mother's extremely happy. She's been on a nice routine. They have made-to-order meals, and it's better than what she got at home. They have the MD on staff and a registered nurse. I haven't been in her room because of COVID, but I saw a sample because they're sending me pictures, and it's perfect. The price is good, furniture is included, and it's got a window. They have an isolated area where we can go in and see her Monday through Friday up until 5:00, but weekends we have to see her through a window, which I did last weekend. They have bingo, which is good.

Provider Response

Doug, thank you so much for your kind feedback! We are so happy you made the decision to have mom move in - she is truly thriving and doing well. We appreciate your support and look forward to when we can have more open visits!
