When the staff showed me around Rosewood, they did a great job explaining what they could and couldn't provide and went through any additional costs that might come up. They were really personable, and within the first week, they knew my mom and dad’s name and their dietary limitations. They always greet them when they see them in the hallways and really make them feel comfortable. They have a one-bedroom with a separate living room and a little kitchenette that's right off the courtyard. Their dining room is very nice. They have good food, and if the residents want more, they just need to ask for it. They have daily activities and provide transportation to doctor’s appointments, the bank, and the stores once a week.

Rosewood Retirement Community was mostly positive. The staff was friendly. They had common areas, but the dining room seemed to be crowded. They had a variety of choices and sizes in terms of types of rooms.

Both of my parents received wonderful care from the staff at Rosewood. Administration is always willing to listen and help with concerns or issues. Can not thank them enough for increasing the care instead of having us move my Dad to a nursing home when his condition declined. They were able to stay together and I am blessed they were able to call Rosewood home.

Not happy with this place. My mother had a place here. We had only been in the Apt about 8 months, and they went up on the rent with no written notice prior to the increase. They are constantly short handed on the weekends. We were running out of medication on a regular basis because the CNA wasn't reordering on time. They just sent us an extra bill for $250.00 for additional care with no written notice of care needed. We didn't even get a phone call that my mother needed additional care. After we interviewed a few of the workers we found mom wasn't getting any additional care. We had a conversation with the Admin, and the owner. These conversations were not what I expected from a professional Retirement Home. We are moving!!!! We are Not Happy with Rosewood!!!
Provider Response
We at Rosewood always strive to provide the best possible care to all of our residents. We consistently receive high marks from our residents, their families and state agencies as well as other professionals about the quality of care we give all of our residents. This is the reason why we stay at 100% occupancy. Unfortunately from time to time we do get a resident and or families who have un realistic expectations of what to expect and sometimes in the case of this resident and her son there is nothing we could have done to please them no matter how hard we tried so it was in the facilities best interest to ask them to find a new place to live. We encourage anyone who is interested in putting their loved one at Rosewood to talk to others who live here as well as health care professionals around the community. They will all tell you that Rosewood is the best place to be.

My visiting experience at Rosewood Retirement & Assisted Living was fine. It was nice, clean, had a friendly atmosphere, and nice people. It was around lunchtime when I was there and the people were eating, I didn't see any other activities at that time. The dining room was fairly formal with nice wooden tables and chairs. There was independent living and assisted living.

I toured Rosewood. It reminded me of a hospital. You walk in the fron and there's an office up to the side. When I was visiting there were half a dozen women standing at their desks looking at their cellphones and ignoring me, which is typical of a hospital. I was impressed with the guy who showed me around and the rest of the staff, they were all welcoming and very professional. However, the food was terrible.

Rosewood was a very positive place to be in. The average activity was a little too old for my wife and I. The fellow who runs the place is spectacular. The staff runs like a well-oiled machine that is there to take care and work with the people. They were responsive, and you could tell the people who lived there liked being with the staff. The spaces there were rather small but much better than the other place we saw. The food, atmosphere, and internal activities were very good. They had a Friday night get-together where they invited someone to play music and had little hors d'oeuvres and snacks for people, and you can have soda. It was very fun and outsiders came. You could see it was very good for the people who lived there, and they all seemed very happy and enjoyed what was going on. It needed a bit of renovation.

We visited Rosewood. The apartment was very small, so we didn't bother choosing this place. It was much smaller than what we wanted and could be comfortable living in. The staff was very nice; however, I didn't particularly care for the owner. The facility serves two meals a day and has a bus for outings once a week.
