The Best Senior Living Communities in Covington, KY

"We did a tour of Harmony at Anderson. If my mother's health deteriorated and she needed more help, it's available there. If she had to go short of full nursing or full memory care, it could handle anything short of that. So, she wouldn't have to move to get up there. It's equipped much more for people that are physically and mentally handicapped. The layout of the apartment, for someone that was confined to a wheelchair, or a walker was fantastic. These things were designed so you could roll up underneath them. The cupboards were positioned lower. If I remember right, every doorway, everything you had to pass through was extra wide. It's like somebody laid it out to use a wheelchair in it. If only my mom didn't have friends and is already established at her current place. There's nothing bad you could say about this facility, it's very, very nice. The staff was very good. We did not eat there, so I don't know anything about the meals other than what they told us; how it was prepared, and how they dealt with delivery and stuff. They're a little bit more trying to get people to come to the dining room, so they eat in a social environment, but they do have it where they deliver it to your room. The dining facility is beautiful. It's brand new, shiny, and well laid out. The hallways don't have any dents. It's all laminate flooring and stuff. It's very, very nice. "

"I visited this community looking for a friend to provide feedback. I was more than impressed. All the staff were so helpful and genuinely looked happy. It was comforting to see that all the residents looked happy and enjoying themselves. You can tell the staff here go above and beyond to make this community as much like home for their residents as possible. I highly recommend checking this community out. I promise you won’t be disappointed."

"We like Barrington of Oakley. It's very clean and updated with lots of social activities. It seems like they have a really good staff. They know everybody who lives there. The staff who showed us around was very knowledgeable. He's been there a long time. He knows all the residents by name. He knows everything about the facility. The tour was very detailed. They have a full kitchen, an outdoor patio area, and a barbecue firepit, that type of thing."

"We visited Magnolia Springs Florence for my father. The person who took us on a tour was a nice lady. The place was nice. The common areas were nice, too. They just didn't have two-bedrooms. They had a library there and I saw a garden area from the balcony."

"I had an in-person tour of the Traditions at North Bend. I like it. They allow residents the opportunity to have social interaction with others but also have alone time if they need it in their rooms. The aides ensure that the residents are getting what they want out of their days, so it isn't like a structured schedule. The rooms are nice sizes, like a studio of 500 to 600 square feet. I like that they have outside therapy services that come in so that if residents want to get some extra exercise, then they can do that."

"Ohio Living Llanfair is in a neighborhood that we're familiar with. It's recently updated. The marketing director who we met with was very generous with her time in our information and has followed up since our visit. It is a well-established retirement community with a good reputation. The grounds were beautiful. They had a courtyard and an onsite chapel. WiFi and cable were included in the pricing."

"My husband is admitted to Optimized Senior Living Newtown. It's small. It only has 8 to 10 people, so that makes for better care, and I feel comfortable with that. It's in a home setting. It's not like a nursing home. The staff is excellent. My husband eats everything. They serve home-cooked meals. They played bingo and they had an Olympic day. So, I think their activities are good."

"We toured The Kenwood by Senior Star. They were excellent. We had lunch there. It was delicious. It was a very beautiful place, you could see beautiful views of downtown. The people were extremely efficient. The gal who showed us around was extremely professional, efficient, knowledgeable, and very thorough. The rooms were very nice."

"The Wellington at North Bend Crossing was very nice. The staff was exceptional. I would pay for that one. It gave you more than the other place did as far as amenities. The staff was courteous. It was very clean."

"The staff is exceptional. Always concerned with the care and safety of the residents! They are currently in the midst of updating the whole facility! They just completed a new roof and now replacing decks, carpeting and furniture throughout as well as painting throughout the facility! We have looked at many facilities throughout our area and would recommend StoryPoint and rate them at a 5 for value and services!"

"Evergreen Retirement Community was amazing. I got a chance to meet some of the occupants there. They have one area that has a stone wall. The facility is old. It was just a beautiful area. Everything was in place. They have a movie theater. You can have three meals, or you can call out and order meals if you want to. They have an exercise place and a place where you can go sit, drink your coffee, and enjoy the beautiful view. They have a garden where you can go and plant whatever you want to. The whole facility is just beautiful. They have walking spaces. They take great care of you. They have wellness checks, which I think is wonderful. They have little cottages sitting in different areas, and I love it. This is where I may be moving in. This was the best independent living facility I had ever seen."

"I visited the secure memory area at Legacy Living Florence. It's a nice place. I like that it's up-to-date and the nurse came out and did an evaluation of my sister in-law. The only thing I didn't like is that it's so pricey. My experience with the staff was excellent. The facility is fairly new, beautiful, and clean."

"My brother is staying at Blue Rock Senior Living. There are very few residents there. My brother said the food is just tolerable. He says sometimes it's not that good, but he gets plenty of food. The room is very small, but he's making the best of it. I think they keep it very clean. The TV system that they have is Roku, so my brother cannot watch any Reds or Bengals games on his TV, and that's probably the biggest improvement they could make. There's one lady there who's been very helpful to him. She helped him set up his computer and other things. They do my brother's laundry once a week. They clean his room once a week. They have a stairlift, but it's very slow. Their courtyard and patio are very good. They have a very small library, so my brother goes to the public library."

"We visited Deer Park Assisted Living. We enjoyed it. It was a nice visit. The staff was very nice, friendly, and organized. It seemed like a very nice place. The tour went through the entire location. We viewed several rooms, and we walked to the community outside. It was a nice, thorough view of the entire area. Their staffing is one of the strong points I like about them. From the time that we walked in up to the time we walked out, they were very nice. We called back afterwards to ask a couple of questions, and we got some good service. Another reason why we liked it is that they were in the process of upgrading the flooring and trying to make it a very nice place."
