Memory Care Communities in Lake Mary, FL

"Eastbrooke Gardens is an amazing place!! My mother entered as a resident on Nov. 1st of 2012 and it was a difficult thing to do. We followed the recommendations of the staff and Mom made a great transition. they provide a lot of fun activities for the residents and are very quick to answer any questions you have about the care they provide and concerns you may have. this is the first time I have had to place a parent in a residence like this and I am so happy with the results. One of the things I appreciate is how much they make it seem like they are caring for their own family member. It is that sense of family that i so enjoy. We visit often because of the welcome we get from the staff!! Thank you to staff: Mary, Jamie, Ellen, Amanda, Douglas, Maria and all the others who make eastbrooke Gardens a great place for a relative with alzheimers/dementia. Thank you!!! "

"The rooms at Horizon Bay Lake Orienta were wonderful, but the only thing my mother didn’t like is they had their air-conditioning and heating unit in the inside of the room. It didn’t look bad, it looked perfectly new, but it took up space in the apartment. There's plenty to do for the residents. They play cards and they watch movies. They also have activities were they go to ballet or Broadway shows. "

"We went to Grand Villa. It was the only place we've gone to see. We sat down with the staff for an hour and went over all the programs that they have and everything that they do and all the care that they give. We went on a tour of the place, and my sister and I felt like it does not feel like you're in a facility. It feels like you're kind of in a community; it seems very homey. We were taken around to the different tenants' housing. There were some who shared and some who have their own, and it just looked like their own little place. The director there made us feel really comfortable about the decisions that we had to make. She was great, and she followed up with me a couple of weeks later. She made us feel like she related to what we were saying and didn't make us feel like this is no big deal. They gave us a support meeting group calendar that we could go to for families that are going through the same thing, and just trying to place our mom and just how difficult it is to make that decision. They had shopping days, and they had birthday celebrations. They were having a Valentine's Day party for the tenants, and they invited us to stay. They had a guy who came in once a week and played the organ or the piano and entertained, and they all sang along. They took us into a room where they actually did garden therapy. They also had rocking babies. They have like a baby crib and they had dolls, and they said a lot of times that's good therapy for them. In the computer, they have memory games that they have certain times during the day -- cognitive working, that kind of thing. It was very informative. "

"Providence Living at Maitland was beautiful. It's brand new, so it's immaculate. I loved the design of it. The room situations were set up with nice wide hallways and a little shadow box outside of every room to put pictures of the residents or their family and stuff. That was a good thing for helping the residents find their way around and such. They also have nice motion sensors in the room, so they make sure they're keeping a good eye on everyone. The second floor was just starting to open up, so my only hesitation would be if there were enough other residents that would be a company for my husband at this point. Also, they do not have a respite program, which I would have liked to have. Other than that, the staff was very warm and very helpful in answering any questions. It's much closer to my home, so it would be easier for me to get there and drop in at any time. They had a beautiful courtyard and the activities they did all seemed great. They were willing to let the residents do what they enjoyed. They had a good activity center, too."

"The Watermark at Vistawilla is very nice, very clean, and well taken care of. The grounds are very nice. My husband loves his room. It's bright and light, and he's got a great big window. He can see out into the courtyard and he can see the gazebo. He watches the lizards as they run around, and he's very happy. The staff members are very good. They've been there every day, and they are good about being there on time with his medications. They get his eyedrops and get his diapers changed, and he's doing well. They're not fully staffed on the weekend. They've had some music and they've done some movies. Today, they started a more regular program with activities. He is enjoying the food. He said it's the best he had in the last few months. The food is good and it's served in small pieces. It's a nice variety with every meal. There's nothing he hasn't eaten yet. Everybody over there has been so pleasant, from the sales down to the caring staff. He hasn't been involved in anything yet. He spent the weekend getting settled in, but I like the program that they have. Even though it's considerably more expensive than any place I looked at, I like the way they do things."

"I was very impressed. Their environment is very great. They have a well-landscaped environment. I enjoyed our visit there, and the staff were great. "

"A warm cozy homey place with licensed nurses and a loving staff of care"

"The Grove at Trelago was nice and the food was good, but the apartments were too small. It's terrific, the ambience, the amenities, the swimming pool, the gardens, and the food. The only thing was that the apartments were too small for us. For other people, they may be OK. They have card rooms and a movie theater. The library was very small and inadequate."

"My mom is in Emeritus, and dad was here before. It was close and convenient for family visits. They are very friendly and helpful. It’s a typical assisted living facility. They had a lot of activities to participate in that I saw; they had a full calendar like bingo, movie nights, field trips out to various shopping places, and once a week they do a lunch out to nearby restaurants. It’s kind of a mixed skilled nursing with the assisted living. The rooms are very clean -- they just redid it about three years ago -- and it is absolutely a quiet place. They have a good nature out back; it is near a retention pond that has wild life all around it. They are quiet and secluded. The food is kind of typical as far as like home cooking kind of meals and kind of home style. I have recommended the facility to people. "

"Arden Courts was a locked down facility for Alzheimer’s and dementia. They did an excellent job and do social development. It was clean. They kept everybody sort of busy, and it had good security. My mother-in-law was a resident there. They had several community rooms. I had eaten there, and the food was quite good. I was impressed with their professionalism. For someone who has dementia and Alzheimer’s, that’s the place to be. "

"Brookdale Oviedo is a small pleasant community. My father enjoys the home feel and attention from the staff. Mangment is very involved and always willing to go above and beyond. My dad really enjoys the themed meals and weekly happy hour."

"I'm living in an assisted living place called Sancerre at Orange City. They bring me my medicine, and I requested it in packages so that I actually open the packages and give myself the medicines. I've got the lowest level of care. The facilities are very nice. The staff are well-trained and very personable and interested in my welfare. I don't participate in a lot of activities, although they're available and I could. They have a lot of activities here. They go out to a restaurant about once a week. They have trips, and they have a bus that goes to Walmart and Publix twice a week. There are a lot of things here that I consider since I have no transportation. I have no complaints. I hold a Ph.D., and I've been in some pretty high-level situations, and this is one of the best I've ever been in myself. I can't imagine anything that I don't have here that I've got a gripe about. The staff are excellent. They're very professional and personable. They look after me. The food is fine. They offer a lot of activities. They've got a very good director of that, and I've heard no complaints. I'm very pleased here; I have no complaints at all."
