Memory Care Communities in Albany, OR

"Mom was a resident for about 1 year at Willamette Springs. We never had a doubt that she was well cared for and loved. When she ended up in Hospice, W.S. took her back and stepped up to the plate! They went beyond our expectations in taking care of her during her last weeks. We have only praise for the excellent administration, medical staff, and care givers that took care of our mom. Thank you for making her last year with us very "stress free" knowing she was in good hands. With Kind Regards, Maureen and Family"

"What I like best about Briden Kinder Care is that it's well-kept and they have friendly staff. What I like least is that their driveways is really steep. We did not taste the food, but the food smelled good. The facility was very nice. The rooms were good. They're adequate or better. When I stepped in it felt warm and homey."

"My husband was at Brookstone Alzheimer's Special Care Center. I love that he had a good roommate and they're very careful about pairing people. They've also had a very good ratio of men to women, it's almost half and half, which is kind of unusual. The community relations person was really good. The staff helped him with showering, bathing, meals, and activities. I've seen that they had a barber shop, a shower room, there's a TV room where they have the meals, and there's a general area where everyone is gathering. I thought the value for money was pretty good."

"We toured Brookdale Salem for my mom. It was very clean, and they were very friendly. The staff who accommodated me was very friendly, she was very helpful, and she gave us a lot of information. My father-in-law and my mother both have dementia. The room looked like a bedroom you might have at home. It didn't look like a hospital room or a nursing home. It looked like an actual bedroom in somebody's home. Because of COVID, we couldn't see the dining room, but they had just cleaned it in between meals. It was all sanitized and they were very, very thorough about their sanitization. It looked like a little village when you walked through the door. They had an ice-cream place and little stores. Nobody was around because of COVID, but we did go into one of the TV rooms, and there were people sitting in there watching TV together. It looked like a living room."

"My parents are at Bonaventure of Salem. They have been there for almost a month now. It is very nice. It is a newer facility. It has lots of open areas. It is a small place, but there are a lot of places inside here that they can go, like a movie theater. The rooms are a little bigger with taller ceilings. They just feel much more open. "

"Prestige Senior Living is a very nice place. We didn't choose that because it is assisted living, and my mother doesn't need that yet. The rooms are really nice. It is very spacious too. The dining room is nice looking and very welcoming. I am very impressed with that place. The staff that assisted us was very nice and very pleasant. All the places we visited have very helpful staff. I like the grounds, and I like that they have a lot of park type settings. It is very welcoming. "

"My wife will be moving into Windsong Memory Care at Eola Hills. I liked their philosophy, and I liked the people there. Everybody was friendly and engaging. There seemed to be a lot of staff, and they were friendly and knowledgeable. The rooms were small but nice. The atmosphere was pleasant. The dining area was adequate. They use the Montessori technique for keeping the residents engaged, and I think that's great. I saw a couple of their activities and everybody was engaged. There was one where there were knocking balloons around and another one where they were doing bingo."

"Always welcomed by warm, loving staff and residents. I always see how happy they are at Gibson Creek. I visit several facilities as a mental health RN. Gibson Creek is by far my favorite place to visit. They are at the top of my list to recommend. "

"Ceder Village Assisted Living in Salem, Oregon, really was one of the best assisted living facilities I have ever toured. Beside its close proximity to home and the I-5 corridor, the food was great and the staff was friendly. We had been looking for a place to put dad that was caring and compassionate, and Ceder Village embodied those two characteristics whole-heatedly. They had the friendliest staff I had ever seen. We were greeted within 15 seconds of coming inside and got a personal tour from one of the nurses! Now, I don't say this lightly because I've had to tour over ten different care facilities before we, and my father, choose Ceder Village: For the price and quality of care, Ceder Village cannot be beat. If its still around when i'm of the age that i need an assisted living facialtiy, Ceder Village will be the first on my list! Oh, and if you get a chance try their banana pudding! To die for! "

"We will be going to Bonaventure at Keizer Station. The thing that made my wife and I say, 'This is it,' is because they have a big 2-bedroom, 1-bath. There is a room for my wife's piano, and it is on the fourth floor. It's the largest unit available there at their campus. When we got there, it just felt right. It had everything that we were hoping to find. We also liked the very friendly attitude of the staff. We had a tour by the Executive Director, and we were treated very royally there. After our tour, we happened to run into one of the residents, and she identified herself as the welcoming person. She told us all the little things that we needed to know to have a good life there. She said, "When you're settled in, I'll come to your place. I'll tell you how you do this and how you do that." It was really nice. It felt very, very welcoming. The Executive Director answered all our questions. She created an offer for us that was attractive. We felt that the price of the room was in our budget. Their list of activities was attractive and not jam packed. Also, within walking distance about two blocks away is a mall that has about 50 stores in it, and that was certainly attractive. We saw people enjoying their meal in the dining area. The menu looked attractive. They have two meals a day that come with the package. For activities, there's a small bowling alley. They were gearing up for a bingo party. In the community part of the building, they dedicated a lot of space for recreation. The staff were very professional at what they were doing. The fact that we had the Executive Director taking us around, allowed us to discuss with her things that were favorable to us coming to that campus. We were very impressed and pleased with how we were handled there by the staff. It's a relatively new place. I think it's five years old, so it seems to be very up to date. It felt like they are on top of anything that needs changing or repairing."

"It is totally accommodating, perfectly clean, and beautiful. The food is wonderful and the staff is excellent. I have been there almost every day to visit my friend and we love it. I couldn't be more impressed. My friend's room has huge windows and high ceilings."
