I toured Golden View Health Care Center, and I liked the staff and the facility itself. It seemed to meet the needs that I was looking for. The staff was very helpful. The facilities were pretty good. The dining hall was bright and cheery, and I liked the fact that it was small. I was there late on a Friday afternoon unannounced, and I was impressed that it was clean.

We liked Golden View Health Care Center of all the ones we've seen. It's assisted living with some memory care. It's got three units, and we visited The Terrace. They told us that because we were looking at both of them, my husband would have a shorter wait to get in probably.
It's very lovely, clean and well decorated. The people that you see are very friendly and very open. The person who did our tour, I know her job is to encourage people to have their care there, but she's a very bright and articulate person and did a great job answering all of our questions.
We didn't try eating there, but we liked the dining room. The menus had a nice variety and good choices. The fact that there are things like snacks available almost any time of the day or evening is nice. There was a country-western singer that was there, and people had gone to hear him. Their activity board had a lot of different activities. The rooms we went into, the bathrooms and showers we went into, and the public areas all looked really good.

Golden View was a very nice facility. I just don't think my brother would be happy there, but I'm sure it's more than suitable for other people. They were very thorough in showing me around the facility. We talked about some of the activities and what kind of things were available. They were very nice and very caring. I observed that they seemed to be very good at what they do.
The rooms they had were just basic rooms. They were fine. They were clean and well kept. They had furniture in them, and they could bring their own stuff as well. They had rooms for watching TV, and reading. They talked about some of the other activities they do and just standard things that you would expect.

My mom recently moved to Golden View assisted living and so far she’s settling in well. The staff have been very kind and have made sure to keep me and my siblings updated on how she’s doing which has been a blessing in this pandemic. Mom likes her room and the food and says the staff and others living there are lovely.

I didn't like Golden View Meredith, the section where they were going to put my mother in was more like a hospital. Because they didn't have any beds available in the second level so they're going to put her on 3rd level care. I didn't want that. Their individual apartments were very nice, but the place where they're going to put my mother didn't work for me. The building has different floors. They have separate apartments, and on the first floor they have people who could basically take care of themselves, the second floor of the building was the people that needed more care, and it's very outdated. Even to the point where what's on the hallway was totally like a hospital. I wasn't impressed after being there for 10 minutes and the girl giving the tour was like saying that it is what it is. When I went there, the girl gave me a walk up to the room that's available. I saw the lunch room on the first floor, but since my mom won't be staying on the first floor, her food would be taken to her room just like a hospital. The section where they were going to put her in was very drab, the rest of the place had been brought up to date but not that area. The girl never explained anything about the activities, she wasn't very helpful.

My husband moved into Golden View. It looks dignified, nice, and the staff is well trained. They have a fair bit of music, which I appreciate. The dining area is very nice, the food is bland, and it looks like everybody gets bland food. He has a private room. I think the living space is small, but the bathroom is very big. They are way too expensive.

Golden view was very clean, very charming, and very appealing. The staff was very cordial and very helpful. I didn't see activities, and there was virtually no one there, but they had beautiful grounds, beautiful rooms, and spacious common rooms that were very inviting. I would like to move in there myself.

Golden View was nice. The apartments were very nice, clean, painted, and well kept. It looked elegant and I think my mom would like it. The staff was very friendly. The nurses came up to me and introduced themselves. They're very professional and very nice.

I was very impressed when my mother was still in the rehabilitation area of Golden View. I found that the staff was extremely caring, they were there when she buzzed, and everything was excellent. But when she went into the assisted living area, I learned that she wasn't assisted as much as she should have been. Like they would drop off the bathing material and they'd say, "Just tell us if you need help." And she was paying for that. She also fell at least twice and got hospitalized, but we don't know if it was because of negligence or if my mom tried to do things on her own. The community looked very nice and the food was appetizing and nourishing.

My mom lives at The Terrace assisted living and loves it. She loves the concerts and bowling, as well as the van trips.

My mother was at Golden View Health Care Center for hospice care. The nurses called me every day. They took great care of her. The reverend went and checked on her every couple of days. I have nothing but great things to say about the place. The staff was very good, very kind, super polite, and they let me know what was going on every day, so I was happy about that. Her room was nice. They had music playing every day for her. They had a TV in there and everything. It was a nice little room. When I was there, it was nice and clean. I was impressed. I know they had a whole list of activities, but I didn't really pay attention to them. I thought it was very reasonable.

Golden View Health Care Center was very quiet and there was not a lot of life. I wouldn't put a parent there that was needing a lot of interaction or stimulation. There was no socialization. It was very desolate. The rooms were comfortable, kind of like hotel rooms. They're clean, but a little bit outdated. They have private rooms. Everybody was very friendly and helped to answer any questions I had. They could have more interaction and more activities for the seniors to do or maybe it was just the time that I went. They could use some updating for sure. They have a nail and hair salon.

I toured Golden View Health Care Center for my parents. It was very good, but they just don't have any openings. They were very nice and very helpful. They gave us a tour of the establishment and went over things. It was a great possibility, and they're on a waiting list.
They had said it would be best if they went into the nursing home, rather than assisted living.
The place was very nice and very good. The staff were very, very pleasant and very helpful. We visited the dining area, but we did not try the food. It was very nice.
I would recommend it. They seemed to be very compassionate. It's just difficult because they only have one or two double rooms, which is what we were looking for (not a single).

I visited a friend of mine at Golden View, and I would rate it first class. I've never seen anything wrong with it. The first time I visited, I was very pleased with it. They were very friendly, very cooperative, and very helpful. She did a lot of exercises there. It's very convenient, very attractive, and kept very clean.

My aunt is in Golden View for rehab. It is very nice. The room is very clean. She has a single room. They brought in a wheelchair for her, and they brought in a table for her to do jigsaw puzzles. She has PT and OT every day of the week. It is a good place. The OT and PT people are very good. They have choices of where they can go to eat, and if they want to, they can opt to have their food in their room. The food is very good. My aunt has been very happy with it. The place is beautiful.

Very good care for my husband who broke his hip and had limited mobility after surgery.. He felt safe and comfortable. Physical therapy for several hours a day and they monitored his vital signs. Friendly and caring staff. Recommended.

From the front office, nurses, LNAs, PT & OT everything was far beyond my expectations. Thanks to everyone at rehab!

I can definitely credit the PT department's knowledge and positive attitude for my accelerated progress after I broke my hip and needed rehab. The nursing staff is also exceptional and always had a positive attitude.

My mom is a resident in their assisted living and she loves it. That makes our family feel good about the decision. They have so many programs for her to attend (music, bingo, art, church). The care staff are wonderful. WE love that the doctors can she her on-site too.

My mom was a patient here for over a month after a stay in the hospital. The staff were so friendly and helpful. They made sure to keep me updated on how mom was doing and answered all my questions. Mom said she was happy to go home but that she'd miss all the friends she made. Would definitely recommend to friends who need rehab!

This is not a five star nursing home. It smells of urine and feces in some of the rooms. They are unorganized and the staff does not do what they say they will do. I can not believe that they can not clean the facility enough so the poor elderly are kept in their rooms like a jail cell. My friends mom is there not by choice and I can not believe half the things she has told me. If you have a loved one do not put them in this false front of a nursing home that only cares about the paying customer.

My father-in-law was not happy at Golden View Health Care Center. We were not particularly happy there either. Everyone looks fine, but the atmosphere was depressing. They were not as personable, and it has been a completely different experience compared to the facility he is in right now. I do not want to say they were horrible because they were fine, but we would not choose to have him go back there. The rooms were nice. They seemed pretty spacious and were set up really well. The place from the inside was really clean and modern.
