Fifth Season of Benton

Rhonda

My aunt moved into the Fifth Season of Benton. The staff was very nice and informative. The room was exceptionally clean and nice. It was the perfect size. There were just the right number of residents there. They take very good care of my aunt when she needs something. They are usually right there. It is just a very friendly and caring staff. They have a salon, a full-time cafeteria, and an outside courtyard.

We toured the Fifth Season of Benton for my parents. My mother liked that all the residents appeared to be happy, and she liked the size of the apartment. We liked the whole place, and it was all nice, but those were two things that she indicated right off. I think they have therapy that comes in. They also had the the workout room, a family room, and outside areas. They also offered me all the meals and snacks throughout the day. The staff members were all very nice. I saw the owner and the lady that gave us the tour. They were five stars. The place was very nice, very neat, and very clean. It's laid out really nice. I think they take them out to like different places for the day. They go to Walmart, too. They have church there and they take them shopping if they need to go shopping. They play bingo, they have games set out all the time, and they have a puzzle room.

My mother has moved into Fifth Season of Benton. It is assisted living but she has her own apartment. There is like a little bedroom part, a kitchen part, and a living room part. We are very pleased with it. The place is very clean. The people are very nice and friendly. My mother has a small refrigerator and a microwave in her apartment, but they cook all of her meals. There are three meals a day. They also take care of her medications. The medicine is in a locked drawer in her apartment and they come in twice a day and give her her medicine. She is in a wheelchair but she can get out, take a shower, and do things. There are times when she doesn't feel strong enough, and they will assist her. They do her laundry and clean her apartment. It is just wonderful. The staff members are friendly. When you walk in the door, they all greet you. They're very helpful and pleasant. The people who live there, they joke with them. They care about them. They have a beauty shop. The ladies can get their hair done if they want. They do manicures one day a week. They have a small exercise room, they have separate room, which is like a small library, and they have an activity room where they play games. They play at least one or two games every day. They also have people come in all day, like singers or performers. It is wonderful. There are lots of activities to do. Even just to sit out in the commons and talk to the other people, it is very pleasant. I am very happy with them. They give wonderful food, and my mother is very pleased with the food too. The place is very well laid out. It is worth it, but it is quite a bit of money. As far as the size, it is much more personal. It is not an overwhelmingly big complex. We like it. Also the staff ratio to the people that live there is great.
