I would highly recommend Autumn Hills for a love one.
The facility is made for the residents to feel at home, no restrictions as to where they can go inside the facility other than like the kitchen or laundry.
I can’t say enough about the staff. They make it easy to leave and go home without worry. They are loving and caring to all residents. They show them the respect they deserve. Always looking for ways to improve, and open for suggestions.
It’s clean and safe for the residents.
We looked at other facilities and was impressed by the homey feeling we got when we walked into Autumn Hills.
We have not been disappointed.

My mom was at Autumn Hills Alzheimer's Special Care Center. It's a very pretty and homey place. The rooms are nice, and they had roommates. Financially, we could not keep her there any longer because they didn't accept Medicaid patients. Everyone was nice.

We have been extremely pleased with the care our mother has received. There are some outstanding caregivers and administrators who constantly strive to improve the care the residents get. Since Alzheimers is by definition an unpredictable disease, there are naturally times when care can't be given exactly as planned, but I would say that the staff - all, including the kitchen - are extremely well-trained and keep a watchful eye on the residents. The activities are terrific. I've arrived many times to find many residents smiling, chatting, doing an activity, or singing along to live or recorded music. There's also a lovely courtyard and nice days will find many enjoying the sun and gardens. We feel very fortunate to have found Autumn Hills.

I went with my sisters Autumn Hills, and we were all impressed. It was nice and the people working seemed to do a good job of engaging the residents. Even our guide would greet everybody that she passed, and they knew her name. It seemed like it would be a really nice place to stay.

Very poor facility for residents with Dementia. The residents are not monitored or encouraged to participate in activities because there are no cognitive opportunities provided for residents here. The residents supervise themselves while the staff is busy doing who knows what. I was there today for 30 minutes and never saw 1 staff person with the residents. The only person I saw "working" was the girl sitting in the front lobby who unlocks the entry door. I could have walked out with any resident and no one would have known. I'm looking for another facility now. I would never recommend this facility.

Autumn Hills Alzheimer's Special Care Center has several floors and a fancy dining area. It’s kind of built into the hills. They have a few private rooms and a lot of semi-private, but we didn’t want to go that route. The woman who took us on a tour was friendly and knowledgeable. I don't have any complaints about them.

Very unprofessional, uncaring establishment. I had an appt with the social worker to fill out paper work for respite care. I showed up and the social worker was a no show. Instead, the receptionist talked to me to say she was there to help me instead but she didn't really know what the social worker and I spoke about and the reason of my visit. She said, "you just want resources" when the reason for my visit was to fill out paperwork. I already have all the literature from a previous visit.
After I left, I called the receptionist to tell her that just blowing off an appt with a client is not acceptable, specially since they are in the business of caring and dealing with people under a lot of stress. My voice was stressed and I was upset but I wasn't screaming. She said, I can't scream at her or she'll hang up the phone, then before I can respond she hang up the phone. Where's the compassion and the professionalism that one should expect from an institution like this? I can just imagine how they treat patients staying there who have dementia and can't speak for themselves. One would think that they would treat the family decently at least until the patient is in so one if left to wonder how bad they get after that.
