Current management company headquartered in IL implemented policy changes resulting in total management (6 positions) turnover as well as other staff. Management company handles mainly facilities in the IL area. Gull Creek's distance from headquarters appear to be an issue.
New upper management lacking warmth and much less engaging compared to the two prior.
Food service company was also changed resulting in a serious decline in meals. Cheaper quality products including proteins, sides, snacks and desserts.
Rooms are spacious, many updated, others in the process.

Everyone from the staff to dining room is so friendly and helpful. It truly is a loving community where everybody knows your name.

We visited 5 assisted living facilities in lower Delaware and Maryland. Gull Creek was the first one we visited and our choice for my parents who are 82 and 84. My parents live in a large, bright two bedroom, two bathroom apartment at Gull Creek. They have a balcony that looks out onto a grassy area. The staff at Gull Creek is amazing. They are kind, patient, responsive and appear happy in their chosen careers. The facility is fairly small, is well maintained and cheerful. The food is above average and the dining hall staff are lovely. My parents still find things to complain about, as do other residents, however the staff listens and responds.

Gull Creek had no room available, but the people that I dealt with were very helpful and very nice. It was a very nice facility. They were very supportive. I liked that it was closer and a little cheaper.
I thought they were right on everything. They had all 3 different levels, and they had their activities. It was not as progressive as the other place that we looked at, but it was not as expensive either.

My dad was in Gull Creek. The staff members were fine and friendly when I interacted with them. The food was very good. The room was nice. It was an independent living arrangement, so he could age in place, which was a plus. The place was clean, but there was no exercise room or a separate gym; just a stationary bike in the hall. My dad made use of it but it was not ideal. The facilities were OK but limited. There were not as many independent residents, and so my dad was not as engaged.

I visited Gull Creek Senior Living Community. I liked the friendly atmosphere. The social worker who gave me the tour did an excellent job. She was very nice. She was very easy to speak to, and she understood the needs that we were looking to take care of. They had a library that they took care of themselves. For the men, they had a little golf putting area. They took care of their own gardening outside which I thought was interesting. When I was there in the activity room, they had a group of ladies sitting there, chatting, and socializing. Some were also sitting out in the veranda at the entrance welcoming guests. You would get one meal a day, and you needed to pay extra for the other two. They had laundry in their room, and they also had laundries throughout the facility where the staff could help them do laundry. They had a little place there where you could help yourself all day to coffee and reading the newspaper. They had a concierge there that were available to take you wherever you needed to go at any time whether it was just to run to a store or to a doctor's appointment.

The memory care unit of Gull Creek didn't look very appealing. It looked a little old and rundown, and it wasn't as clean as the others we looked at. The staff was great.
