Memory Care Communities in Coeur D Alene, ID

"Pine Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center has wide halls and semi-private rooms. There is plenty of staff at all times. My mom never misses a meal. There is a dessert with every meal, and you cannot disturb her while she is eating. Now, I can see her twice a week easily. Mom is thriving a lot more with more people -- more social life. She is much happier here than she was in the last place. They had things scheduled all day long whether or not mom gets in on all of it. There is a round walking path that they can follow. There are games, puzzles, and crafts. They said they do horseracing for the men. They put root beer in a beer bottle so that when they’re horse racing, they will have a beer. Someone comes in with music, or there is a piano playing during lunch. It has movie time with popcorn a couple of times. They had bingo. You walk in, and they have a card game going. "

"I moved into The Gallery at Spokane Assisted & Senior Living. The rooms are big enough. I have good sun coming through, so that's good lighting. The food is terrific. They have a good medical department. They're very, very helpful. They are here immediately if you have a problem. They are very pleasant. We have a good yard out here, good areas to sit and enjoy yourself. Inside, it's like a hotel. It looks fantastic."

"Very professional staff. A very comfy place to live for medium-risk patients. It's nicely located about 5 minutes away from several grocery stores, yet also isn't in a high traffic area. The staff were trained to help people do basic things such as wash, use the toilet, and eat. Their rooms were also quite comfortable, with an electric reclining chair, a TV with cable, a comfortable bed, and a very large cabinet with a refrigerator for foods. A good choice for anyone, certainly better than some of the other homes I've been to in the Spokane area. "

"My mom is moving in. I like the facilities, and they're the only ones that take Idaho Medicaid. The rooms are beautiful, and the facility is beautiful. The staff is very nice, and the number of staff to patient is nice and high. Mom is moving in on January 3rd. They have activities every day, one is bingo, and they get three meals a day with three snacks. The staff looked efficient in what they did."

"I chose Orchard Ridge for Mom because I like the feel of it. It was like the way they reacted when we got there. I had been told it was fairly good for what my mother would need. The people that I've met were very friendly and caring towards the patients. They have areas where they can watch TV. They had areas where they could put together puzzles. They had areas where they did group activities."

"We chose the Renaissance, and we're waiting for a room. It's a very small facility, everybody was very kind, it's family-owned, and I really liked that. It's very clean and very well-kept, and it has small intimate spaces, rather than a large apartment or dorm type feel. The most important amenities were the bathing rooms, the showers, the spas, and the beauty salons. It was easy to get outside to a courtyard area; there were lots of outside spaces. They have small group activities, people were actually socializing, there were men playing chess, and there were some other folks watching TV in the living area. "

"I found Generations Assisted Living, and my mother is moving there tomorrow. We chose it because it has both assisted living and memory care, and everyone there is on the same boat. They all are assisted, they all need memory care, and they do it in steps. My mother is starting at memory care one. It goes to memory care six, you're placed with people that are in the same level as you. There are three buildings, three separate buildings. And each one has different levels of care. It's very spacious, airy and light. It has a very nice feeling when you walk in. It's very clean. The staff is gracious and very sweet to everyone. They play games with them. They take them on outings. They just care for them in general, and they have different things going on every day. They're going to take care of all of your medications. She's diabetic. They will be taking care of them. They do the ordering. They have their own hairdresser. They have the doctor that comes in."

"Orchard Crest Retirement & Assisted Living would have been a perfect location for my mom. It is a beautiful new building. It is in very good condition, and they have very good staff. "

"We were very happy with our tour at Rose Pointe. They offered a lot more care for your money. The rooms were of nice size. They have a very nice dining area. The residents seemed very happy. I was very impressed with the staff; they were very friendly, and helpful. They offer more on the base rate for what you are getting. They have three meals, and they also have all sorts of activities. They have games, entertainment, and specialty activity rooms. They really have a lot to do for people at this facility. It is not a brand-new place, but it is well-maintained, and is a good value. "

"Colonial Court Assisted Living is 100 times better than where Mom came from. This is small and has like 50 residents. They order their food in the morning so that when they get it, it's cooked, it's fresh, and then they serve it. They try to cook healthy food, and they give medicines on time. They genuinely care about their residents there. They have a nurse five days a week. I can communicate with them about my mother's needs, and they get back to me. There's somebody there, and when they see things that crop up, they notify the family, and they will get medical attention right away. She gets her medicine on time, and they encourage them to get out, do things together, and have some socialization. They give her, her showers there. She gets her needs met. She is in a studio apartment. It's one big room with a bathroom, and it's not a full kitchen. It's just a part of a kitchen, and it has a sink, a little refrigerator, and a microwave. They put out food around 10:00 to 11:00, so they can have vegetables and fruits mid morning. In the afternoon, they put out something, too. They have a big area where they have a porch and chairs, and stuff like that. They have a library and a game room. They can go there to talk and visit. The activities can be beefed up a little bit more. Value for money is pretty average. I think what they're charging is what all the others charge. Every one of these assisted living places should be like them, have good food, and have people who care."

"My grandmother is at Sunshine Gardens in Spokane Valley. They've been great. I was in there to see her when our mom passed away and they've been phenomenal for us. I saw her room before moving in through Zoom. The staff is great, they are very informative, and I talk to them every other day. She's doing some therapy, which is good for her, and they do whatever the daily activity plan is. They modified it, just a little bit, but she has something to do every day."

"I got my husband into Ciel of Spokane. The staff is extremely helpful and nice. It's extremely clean and quiet. The residents all seem settled in and content. I have no complaints. My husband thinks the food is pretty tasty compared to some of the other places he's been to. The food is prepared, and it looks pleasing to the eye. They serve you on a nice plate, and it's not really bland. They have activities. They have bingo, they have games to play, they have field trips, and they have movies to watch. They have entertainment where people come in and sing during the holidays, and then once a week they have a couple of people that come in and sing. For value for money, I think all those homes are pretty expensive, but you get what you pay for. But the one selling point that I like about Ciel of Spokane is that each resident has a separate room, and they have motion sensor detectors in the room. So if someone is getting out of bed in the middle of the night, the sensor will alert the nurse's station, so they can go and check on the person."

"Rockwood's atmosphere is quite nice. My mother's room is wonderful. The food and the dining room are wonderful and restaurant-style. They have a whole variety of social activities. However, I don’t care for the social worker. "
