Memory Care Communities in Winter Springs, FL

"Knowing that we would be in the Orlando area, we decided to make an appointment to see Horizon Bay Lake Orienta. We've always liked that area - and my friend's mother also liked it. We were researching possible places for her to live. We really liked how well the staff was prepared for our visit. They had taken the time to find out about my friend's mother and the things she likes. We were shown all of the common areas, all of which were really nice. There were plenty of scheduled and non-scheduled activities to choose from. The grounds were all well manicured - with plenty of areas for residents to enjoy. Even though it was raining, we could see that it would be a great place to spend time. The snacks offered included everything from specially designed and prepared baked goods (geared toward health) to fruits, vegetables and delicious puddings. Despite the fact that they were made to be healthy, they all tasted really good. The dining room was really lovely - as were all the adjacent communal areas. The guest lunch meal that we had was really great. Seniors can use the exercise room at any time and also go on daily walks. Aerobics and yoga classes are also offered. The residents go on trips to visit the many Orlando entertainment venues like art galleries and museums, casual and fine restaurants and to enjoy the many cultural events offered. We could see that the residents are treated with care, kindness and respect at all times. "

"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."

"I toured this facility 2 years ago and recently returned this facility WOW! Is all I can say. The memory care I can not even recognize. Everything looks and feels so bright and vibrant. There were staff that remember from my last tour still employed there. Longevity is always a plus sign in my book. "

"Mom Loves her apartment in memory Care! Coming from a family of clean freaks we greatly appreciate the regular housekeeping. I tell the chef how great the food is every time I see him. The quality is excellent! The staff is beyond fabulous. Attentive, sweet and genuinely care for the residents. All the hugs and love go a long way in making them smile."

"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."

"I've been to Brookdale Lake Mary. It seemed OK. It was fine. It seemed clean. The rooms were OK. The price was very attractive, but it was assisted living. My mom has so many different needs; they finally said they couldn't take her. I understand that. It's very close to where I live, and it's a good location. They had different therapies and everything. They had the people that come in, like to do your haircuts and your nails and so forth. It was a nice lobby with a smaller lobby, but it seemed nice. The dining room seemed nice."

"My grandmother lived here three years and loved it, as did we. The staff were attentive and genuinely caring, the food was delicious, various activities and music programs (which she loved), and the managers truly care. "

"It's a very nice place and I visited my friends there. I've been there for lunch and a birthday party. The food was good. I've got two friends there and they're both happy. "

"I visited CERTUS Premier Memory Care Living. It's the Cadillac of assisted living. They have colored bathroom seats so they know where to go at nighttime, and they have a red light. They have sensors if they fall during the night, or if they get up out of their bed during the night, and they check on them every two hours. It's beautiful, and they have a lot of colors, like the plates; they have red plates if you're not eating and the blue plates if you eat too much, but I'm not sure about that part. The staff knows about their patients and they're always engaging them. That's what I noticed when I was there. They had instruments there, a workout room and a really nice salon. They have like a downtown thing, and the carpet is really cool. You would think it was brick, but it was actually carpet. They have a kitchen with cookies in it so you can stop by and grab a cookie. They have a really big fish tank, and they have little activity centers throughout the halls. They have like a bunch of tractors in there, but they were all gone, because the guys take them. They have a garden and everything, which is nice; it's actually beautiful. I would have loved to put my mother there, but I just couldn't afford it."

"Bahama Bay Club Luxury Senior Living was a very nice facility. I enjoyed my tour. I know some people who have recently moved in there, and they're happy with it. It's all brand new. They had a library. It seemed like they had everything they needed. The staff was very informative and very pleasant."

"My father-in-law is at Brookdale Conway. We have been very happy there, and my father-in-law has been happy with it. They have a very good administrator, and she has been very nice to work with. My father-in-law’s room is great. It is like a mini apartment. It has a bedroom, a living room, a bathroom, and cupboard for a kitchen. We have eaten at Brookdale Conway, and it is good. My father-in-law is happy with it too. They take the residents shopping. They have bingo, and movies. My father-in-law has been a pastor all his life so he leads a Bible study there, and some of the residents come to that. He enjoys that a lot. He is very happy there, and he loves the staff. They feel like a family to him. "

"Helena went above and beyond to help my Dad. I came down with Covid and was unable to help my dad with his dog. She was an amazing helper and she did a fantastic job. We so appreciate her."

"I believe I'm going to go to Gentry Park Orlando. I was very impressed with it, but it's not quite finished yet. The rooms were finished, but their lobby and things weren't done yet. I really thought it was a nice place. I enjoyed going through it. The lady that took me through was very helpful. We had a good experience. Lunch and dinner are included. They have arts and crafts and exercise. The rooms were light. The kitchen cabinets and everything were all white, and the floors were light brown. There was carpeting in the bedroom, which was sort of a gray tone. Everything was really nice. There was a little balcony outside."
