The Best Memory Care Communities in Seminole County, FL

"Mom will be moving into Brookdale Lake Orienta. She's going to start off with one end and then the other. She likes all the amenities there. It was able to offer her a one-bedroom unit and it's off by itself. It's not a studio. Pretty much everybody was offering studios and this is better and also it's better priced than everybody else's. The staff was wonderful, very nice, very accommodating, and welcoming. The original one that we looked at was very nice, but the view wasn't all that great because it was overlooking the parking lot. They had another one that had just opened up, and that's the one she's going to end up getting. It has a nice overlook of the lake. They have screened-in windows so she can actually open up the windows if she wants to also. They were helpful from the very get-go. The little extra that they did, which I thought was very nice was they actually paid for my mom to get a manicure that day."

"Grand Villa of Altamonte Springs was very nice. I liked it a lot. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They had a swimming pool, and they also had days when they played games with the seniors. They take them on trips sometimes, which was nice. I went to take my dad, but I was thinking that when I am of age, I probably would like to live there myself. "

"We moved my father into the watermark 4 years ago, and as he put it he thought he had died and gone to heaven. He loves his spacious room with refrigerator and microwave for late night snacks. With his limited hearing capabilities he's not able to partake in a lot of the social gatherings with music and trivia, but loves and does not miss any bingo games. Charmaine is great making sure everyone is able to hear and see the numbers. He also is the first on the bus to any destination, grocery store, a lunch out, or field trip. Carlos will patiently load and unload them, guide them throughout there outting with such genuine care. A great staff that truly know him, and care for him. The dinning room is very plush, and has a great atmosphere. Kim the activities director is constantly coming up with new and enjoyable destinations, experiences, and quest. She really makes it a point to acknowledge the veterans here as well. If you stop by, he would love to tell you himself . Just ask for Lloyd, at 98 he's a firecracker."

"We had a great staff person named Drew who showed us around Grand Living Park at Lake Mary. He was awesome. He'd been associated with them for a good long time. He knew the history of the place. He was very knowledgeable. He could sell me a car. The public rooms down on the first floor were beautiful, and they had recently been redone, I think, and everything downstairs was beautiful. The apartments upstairs were OK, but they had not been recently renovated and seemed a little older. The upkeep of the place was fine. The dining area was big and everybody seemed friendly and nice. They had a nice menu, but I didn't eat anything."

"My daughter told me about Emeritus so I checked it out since it was near my house. I liked the overall appearance. It was very clean, modern and up-to-date. I talked with the administrator and I liked the way she treated me. She was very professional yet I could tell she was also compassionate. I liked the way she managed the place. I also spoke to the staff through the telephone and they seemed caring and helpful. There were round the clock doctors, nurses and physical therapists. It looked like they had all what our mother needed. I was really impressed. They just did not have any vacancy. "

"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 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."

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

"I went to Bahama Bay Club Luxury Senior Living. The food was delicious. They offered me soup, and it was so nice and tasty. Then they offered me a dish with vegetables and potatoes, and on the side, there was some kind of a dip and it was delicious. I enjoyed it a lot. It's very clean. The people were very nice and very friendly. I visited the whole place. I was very impressed. The decoration was very sophisticated, and the smell was so nice. It includes so many activities, restaurants, movies, hair salon, pedicure, and manicure. The staff was very good. I was so happy. The guy who did the tour for me was a gentleman, very generous and very nice. He let me see three apartments and the apartments were so neat, so clean, and very good. It was a very good experience for me."

"We were very impressed, they had a movie room, a private dining room, and a library. "

"Went to visit my Dad today. He was quiet and not feeling well. The staff were doing a good job and had plenty of staff and on duty. Mealtime isn’t easy because so many different needs. My Dad has enjoyed his beef but I’ve had to cut up a few of his pieces. This isn’t an issue. I know it’s hard prepping food for the group. My Dad loves dessert and the choice of Banana Split had poor execution I saw the young bringing Bananas in and likely was pressed for time. Too many many Bananas used. Could cut up one big piece into four pieces and that would be fine. too much stuffed in the plastic cup. The portion control didn’t match the audience. The last time I was there he everything and was a nice meal"

"Brookdale Wekiwa Springs had really wonderful cottages, but the food needed a lot of help. The staff was very helpful and very pleasant. They were in the process of going through some renovations, which made things a little confusing, but they handled everything very professionally. They're very close to everything, and it was very homey. I would recommend it as long people are looking for cottages. "

"My mother moved into Certus Premier Memory Care Living. It's new, it's very focused on what's best for the patients, and the nursing there is outstanding. It's very clean, and it's new, and the grounds are beautiful. Everybody's been very professional, pleasant, and helpful. She has told me that she really likes the food. They have activities all day, so that keeps the residents very busy and active."
