My mother lived at Monroe Place for over 3 years. To say they have been a blessing to us is an understatement. From the very beginning the staff was warm, courteous, attentive, and above all, truly loving to my mother. As her health declined due to a terminal diagnosis, they continued to communicate with us daily about how she was doing, provided total care at the end of her life and couldn't have done a better job. We still keep in touch with some of the staff and really felt like this was mother's home, and so did she. We are forever grateful.

Monroe Place is a beautiful facility with very spacious apartments. There is a handful of staff that are very caring, helpful, and attentive to the residents. However, the manager, Curtis is completely worthless. He acts clueless most of the time and always displays a flat affect. He comes across as if he is dispassionate. He does not communicate well with family members/residents and is unprofessional. Our family is having to call constantly because medications have been missed or given incorrectly, scheduled baths have been missed numerous times, having to remind them to wash the laundry and clean the apartment, which by the way is all paid for in advance. Laundry and kitchen items have gone missing.
I believe if management at Monroe Place was more professional, possessed integrity, was emotionally intelligent, exhibited some organizational skills, and demonstrated some fortitude, Monroe Place would be a great place to live.

Monroe Place was too far away. The staff was very helpful during my visit, and it seemed like a very caring community. There were dead flowers in a vase of bad water where we walked in, and that made a bad impression.

We went to Monroe Place. It’s really nice. I like the way they get together and talk. The room was really nice, and they had a really nice place outside in the back. You could go out several doors, and there weren’t any steps or anything to go out to. I really like it, but my husband just didn’t want to live away from here. I didn’t eat there, but I thought the dining room was very nice. They had like bingo and different crafts stuff, and they had the things for you to exercise on.

We found Monroe Place for mom right away. Mom absolutely loves the staff; she can’t be happier with them, especially the maintenance guy, John. Her room was absolutely gorgeous, and she got the model room. It’s got two big windows overlooking the courtyard with the big, beautiful tree, grass, and flowers. The food was fabulous before, but a month after it’s no longer as good.

The food was not good at Monroe Place. It tasted canned, greasy, and of poor quality. It seemed very processed. The place is not clean, so it was not right for Mom. The rooms were OK, but I think the place is kind of run down. The staff was cordial during our tour. They have a calendar of events as well.

My mom just moved into Monroe Place about 3 months ago. She had a lot going on medically. We thought it was the end of the road for her. Since then they have placed her in therapy to help get her adjusted. Their activities director has taken her out into their community and now she is participating in activities. At first I could see my mom living there for quite some time then she fell. The hospital told us that she had to go to a nursing home. Monroe Place management promised us that she would be able to come back to her home. Her care level has gone up some and it has increased her bill. They are still bringing her down to activities everyday. I was impressed. Now that she can longer do the things that she used to do independently, my mom needs almost total care. She met a friend at Monroe Place and in order to keep her with her friend we agreed that it would be easier financially for my mother to share a room with someone. I didn't like this idea at first but now she can stay there with her friends and not have to go to the nursing home. They have really bent over backwards for my mother and my family.

I am/was a resident of this facility
I was at Monroe House. When I first went there, I thought it was nice. I had a nice big apartment and I like it. I had a nice living room, a kitchenette, a bathroom, and a lot of space in my closet. However, overall, the feedback for this facility is mostly all negative except for the help. The help was very good, but the management was horrible. At the time that I was there, the main woman who took care of the facility was not very friendly. Also food was terrible.
