We saw The Fountains at Cedar Parke. We liked it but it was farther away from where the family lived. It seemed like a very nice place, but it was larger, and that was another factor why we did not choose it for my mother.

We went to the Fountains at Cedar Parke. It's a little rundown, they had a lot to offer, the room itself was nice, but my mom did not have a good feeling there. The lady was very helpful, but she never followed up. We saw more of the independent living activities like bingo, card games, but the location was not good.

The Fountains had many activities, a theater, and a have priest who came in for mass and Communion. They had all kinds of entertainment and trips to malls, shops, and casinos. The rooms were very pleasant and painted. Every unit in the compound had its own private porch, which impressed me the most. The people who I talked to were all very pleasant and helpful.

I was not too impressed with the care given to a friend plus the lack of clean lids in their apt. The daughter seems to have to vacuum the apt. Plus the trash needed to be emptied and your info says this is done daily. I volunteer at a senior facility in another state & I do not see the lack of care & attention where I volunteer that I saw at your very attractive facility.

We visited The Fountain. Many residents there were members of my mom’s parish, and they had a wonderful Catholic service on Saturdays, which made her feel welcome. The people were very helpful and caring. They provided three meals.

My dad has lived here in Independent Living for 3mos. He had a fall, was hospitalized, then Rehab in another section of the same facility. He will be moving to Assisted Living in the same facility. There is something to be said for continuing care available in one location. He has had very good care while in Rehab and all staff go out of their way to make family members comfortable. The residents are also very friendly and speak highly of this place. I would highly recommend the Fountains at Cedar Parke.

My Mother in Law lived here on the independent living side. Very, very nice. I brought my husband here for a short stay (he has alzheimers ) and when i picked him up he was unwashed and u shaven. He reeked. He was neglected the whole time he was there. They never even brushed his teeth! Disgusting place. 300.00 per per doesn't buy you a shower?

We went to The Fountains and this is the one we liked the best. It was clean; it was updated. There seemed to be a lot of staff. There's a place that, if one of my family members came to visit, they could stay. It seemed to have a lot of activities, and it's close to our home. This would be the one we would go to.

The Fountains seemed like a nice place but my sister didn't want to live there. She didn't like the area. She's not yet 60 and she thought the people were too old there. The facility was clean, neat, bright and well kept. The apartments were nice but I don't think it was financially feasible.

Everything was good at the Fountains but my brother in law couldn't afford it. The staff was great and did everything to try to get us in. The place was fantastic. They had a pool, they had exercise daily and it's actually a country club kind of place.

I went to The Fountains at Cedar Parke for a visit. It was like being in a hotel. The dining room was exceptional. They offered food and what I had for lunch was fantastic. There were buses that took the residents where they wanted to go.

I really like this facility, my father once was a resident of this place and when he moved to another facility to be closer to his family it was hard to move from here for him because he loved everyone there. The offer rooms that are set up exactly like an upscale apartment. The residents can a very independent life and enjoy their lives however they choose to while they receive the individual car they need. I like the way the staff goes out of their way just to make sure each resident feel like they are king or queen of the world. Staff is so professional and really love their jobs and the residents.

Allegria at the Fountains was under construction in a major remodeling of the common area. We were shown the layout and the interior design that they were redoing, and it's going to be beautiful. The place did need to be updated, so their reconstruction was timely. Each resident has their own doorway that they can decorate or put a table out or put a statue. We saw in the rooms, they had not only a bedroom and a living room, but they also had a sunroom attached to some of the rooms, which was a three-season room. You wouldn't want to go out there in the dead of winter or the heat, but it was like a bonus room. We have several residents. We toured the dining facility. We saw the library. We were treated very well by the staff. They were fully operational.
It's an older facility that they're updating, and they're not only updating the decor, but they're also updating the electrical and the data lines. This is a major renovation that they're doing while the residents are in place. They had a beauty salon, and they had a manicurist there. We met a doctor, and they had a medical place there. We liked it, but it was just too far away. They weren't as diverse as I would have liked. My friend is Jewish and there's a very small population.

The Fountains at Cedar Parke was much more expensive than the other facilities. It had a country club feel almost, and it was too ritzy for my mother. They had a big library, and they had the ability to move you from independent living to assisted living in a different wing. They had all the levels of care. It was very clean, big, and a lot of couples were there. The lady who showed us around was very pleasant. The place looked lovely. If you have the money and you want to live like that, it's a nice place. They were very accommodating and answered all our questions. We had lunch there, but I wasn't that impressed. It was more like a snack area; anybody could go there anytime and get something, but it was very limited. They had a beauty parlor and other amenities.

We visited the independent living level of The Fountains at Cedar Parke. I liked everything about it; the apartments were roomy enough and accommodated pets. The staff seemed engaged. My sister was interested in the one-bedroom apartment on the ground floor, and the grounds were lovely.

One of the most memorable places we visited is The Fountain at Cedar Parke. The surroundings were very nice. The food was excellent. We usually do try the food because it is important to me. We were looking for me and my wife. We liked the room. A lot of these places have a lot of activities, probably more than you would want to be involved in. During the day, they have games and things like that. The food was exceptional. I don't think it was lady luck with the meal, but it was exceptional. It is probably one of the top three places if not the top that we visited as far as the food goes. They also have a ten percent discount on the monthly rate for veterans. I think it is the only place that we visited that had that for veterans.

My mother was at the Fountains hospice facility for whats called respite care so I, her full time caregiver could get a break for a few days and get a few things done. When she went in there on june 12th 2014, she was ok. When I went to see her at dinnertime the next day and two days later, she was in horrible shape. Weak, confused, unaware of why she was there. Her home hospice aide who went to take care of her in the morning, just like she does at home 5days a week in the morning, noticed there was something wrong. Mom had become dehydrated. Medical staff there should have noticed something was wrong and done something to help, but apparently did nothing! They didn't even follow my instructions as to her clothing as she is urinary incontinent and hates adult diapers. I provided adult pull up incontinent panties and extra urinary pads which they did not use! I would not, in any way recommend this facility to anyone for any reason!

Beware of the purchase contract. We had a 90% refund contract. My mother died in 2008. We have not as yet seen one penny of our contracted refund. They have not "been able to sell" the Apt. in 6 years!! Buyer beware.

My sister was at The Fountains at Cedar Parke. I found this facility in your website. She was in a guest suite for a couple of months before she became a permanent resident. The room looked comfotable and well-decorated. The refrigerator, microwave and sink were topnotch. They had a rehabilitation center on site and also all levels of care. They took the residents shopping and there was a service vehicle for doctor's appointments. The dining room was very nice. A lot of the residents complained that the portions were small, but they could actually have more if they asked. I thought the facility was just trying to cut-down on food waste. And there was also a snack cafe. Although, they could do better if they provided two meals a day instead of one. After a few months there, my sister walked better and was definitely more social.

My sister-in-law and her husband are at The Fountains at Cedar Park. They have a nice apartment. At first she got depressed, but they seem to be okay there. It's a big place with lots of people around. The outside of the apartment is rather bleak.

We were looking for a place for my parents-in-law and we went to The Fountains. It was located conveniently near our house and we had a lot of positive feedback from our neighbors. It was like an apartment building with extra help, not like a hospital at all. The facility was very neat and clean. The dining room was beautiful and lovely. We went on a Sunday so there were only a few staff but the ones we ran into were pleasant. A bus takes the residents to the malls, movies and churches. Some of the activities were sing alongs, cocktail hour and movies, and there was also a library.

I was very impressed with Allegria At The Fountains. We didn't go with it because mom didn't want to change, and they didn't have private rooms available at the time. I would recommend it nevertheless because it seemed nice.
Memory Care Reviews for Allegria at the Fountains
June 27, 2021
I visited this facility
I liked Allegria at the Fountains, and the cost was better than the place I chose, but it was at least a 40-minute drive from me. It was a continuing-care where you have assisted living, memory care, and like a skilled nursing facility. The rooms were very small, but they had an activity director that was always in the activity room. So when anyone came in, there was somebody there to do some sort of activity with them along with scheduled activities. The staff that I met was very, very nice and seemed to know all the family, and knew all the patients.
As memory care, they didn't make their residents wear masks, instead all of this staff wear masks, and when I went to visit, they did a rapid covid test on me, which was negative. So I liked that because to get people with dementia to put on the mask and keep it on, it's almost impossible. So I did like how that was handled, like they understood dementia. The layout was nice, and they had a very nice activity calendar as well.

Do NOT send your loved one to memory care! The director of assisted living is beyond unprofessional!! She suggested that it is too bad my mom is not further along in her disease (Dementia) because she would not be trying to get out of their “secure” facility. They are NOT secure! All they need to do is press on the exit door for 10 seconds and your loved one is in the woods or on a main highway! Worse yet, they take no responsibility, instead the director says my mom’s Dementia is a behavior problem that they won’t deal with!! The ER is their option for dealing with her exit seeking behavior. We have been there for 30 days and she has been sent to the ER and we have been threatened that this will continue if we do not provide 1:1 care. This seems to be their only remedy for typical Dementia/memory issues. They have continuously said throughout this past month that we need to recognize my mom is not safe in their “secure” memory floor and yet they advertise as such. If they can not be held accountable, they my only hope is that we can save another family from this horror!
