SaraBella Senior Living was excellent. It just opened in April, so everything is brand new. The facility is my personal favorite, but the cost was high. They only had 10% of the rooms that were occupied, so that's how brand new it is. The place was absolutely beautiful, and I hope it's still around when I get to my father's age. You walk in and the main lobby area is stunning. It's open all the way to the ceiling. They have three floors. The walkways up above second and third floor go around the center area, and then it branches off to the different areas. The dining room was beautiful. They have a separate area where you can have family come in and dine with you for a minimal cost.
The only two complaints that I had was that it was on the higher range financially, and there was only 10% of the rooms that were occupied. When my father does this, I don't want him going to a place that's where he's not going to be around anybody. The whole idea is to get him back involved with people because he's been alone since my mother died. They also have a separate wing for the memory care. The staff and the facility were great.

Memory Care Reviews for SaraBella Senior Living

SaraBella Senior Living was nice. It was brand new. At that time, they only had two ladies living in memory care. He'd be the only man there.
The rooms were very nice, but I did not feel it would be a good fit for my husband. The room size was quite large with a strange layout, but nice. The people there were nice. I don't like the location. It was too far for me to go and too many miles to travel.
They didn't have much planned for activities. They were just too new. When we were there to look at it, their activity was to take the two ladies on a bus to Mcdonald's, and they got an ice cream cones.
The lady we met was very, very good. I ran into one person in the memory care. She was very quiet. She didn't really say anything. They were nice.
One thing I complained about when I looked at the room was that they had carpet in the room. For somebody in memory care where they might have urine problems, the carpet will be soiled and smelly in a matter of weeks. She said if I would call her the next day telling her we were going to go there, they would rip it out and put in vinyl flooring. I said they really should have done that with all those bedrooms in memory care, especially in people with wheelchairs. It's hard to maneuver. It was a plusher carpet in the bedroom. It didn't make sense to me.
