Lehigh Acres Place

My brother has moved into Lehigh Acres Place. So far, we're very pleased. There are a few little hurdles that we're going through; but for the most part, he's very happy there. He's on dialysis, and I was under the assumption when we signed in that they would transport him. I come to find out that is not the case. It was a little disappointing. His insurance would pay for homecare; but they don't have a license for it, so that was another hurdle. We're trying to get him on transport because these companies are outrageous with their prices. He goes three times a week, so it's a burden. For the most part, I'm very pleased with them. They're being very good about helping us. The staff members are wonderful. They go out of their way. He is on a special diet, and the chef is very mindful of what he's eating. I'm very pleased with that. They go right to his room and get him. He goes to church. He plays trivia and bingo. He's out there, so I'm very pleased with that. As far as cleanliness, it's excellent. I'd like to be paying less, but it is what it is. I'm paying some extra fees for move-in and all that stuff, but hopefully in the next few months it'll come down a little bit lower. I can't complain. I'm pleased with what's going on.

Lehigh Acres Place was very nice and I was very impressed with the tour. The community was a little smaller than the other one I visited and more personable. The rooms are smaller but it's only going to be for one person, but it would be adequate. Maybe the middle or larger room would be good, I think the small room would be a little too small. They have you buy your own furniture so it would be up to you how you would furnish it. The dining area was very spacious, very attractive, and seemed very nice. They had some nice lanai rooms and a garden to sit outside, but they didn't have a pool, a computer room, or a big game room. I met two people, the head guy and the nurse, they were very friendly and very nice. It's very clean, well-kept, the lawn was very well manicured, the room was very clean inside and very attractive. The staff I met were very professional and very friendly.

Lehigh Acres Place is where my mother stays. She loves it there. It's a nice facility with caring and nice people. She says the food is good and she loves the breakfast most of all. The facility is very nice and very clean too. The only activity I know they have is bingo, but before the pandemic, they had movie nights, Bible study, bowling nights, seafood or pizza nights, and different things. My mother really doesn't do all these because she goes out and does things with Hope Pace, and gets her exercises there.

I've moved into Lehigh Acres Place. It's very nice. It's small. I'm active here. The vast majority of the workers are competent. We don't have a second director right now, but they are in the process of searching for one. Everybody is trying to compensate for the lack of one. I like the workers overall. I'm relatively independent, but I get insulin injections, and that's what keeps me at a level two. They give me my medications. Food is excellent. I've gained 22 pounds since I moved here. The activities are very good. We have a lot of crafts and bingo. We have lots of activities. It's a small facility and we're not even at full capacity, and so it is nice and intimate. I know everybody, being I'm the resident ambassador here. One of my functions is to meet the new residents and make them feel comfortable.

We chose Lehigh Acres Place because of the price. The place is clean, the people seem to be very nice, and they have everything my parents need. They have activities, and they serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The staff members are very helpful and give us updates. The communication is good. They're doing really well there and I'm happy. I go in there unannounced and everything is always nice.

Lehigh Acres Place was a smaller, quiet, peaceful place. We would have taken it, but they didn’t have an opening. They were OK. The staff was very nice, but they did not hit the spot, and I wanted to go see some others after that one. They are so small and difficult to get in.

My mother-in-law had stayed at Brookdale Lehigh Acres. We were happy with the staff. They tried and tried, but it did not work out. We ended up spending almost $6,000 on a private babysitter for the last months she was there. She had a room with a sink and a small refrigerator. The food was good.

It is supposed to be where my dad will be, but my daughter chose to keep him. The people were very pleasant and the place was very clean. Their residents seemed happy and the staff seemed very attentive.
