Elderwood Village at Fairport

Everyone was very friendly at Elderwood Village at Fairport, and the place was very clean, and they were doing some renovations on each of the client's rooms for fire doors, and so I was impressed with that. The hallways were wide for those with walkers and wheelchairs. The only thing I did not like is that when you first walked into the building, the residents were all sitting right there, and that just made me anxious for them, just due to the the gun violence that we've seen. Also, I wondered when the receptionist became busy with people, how they kept track of who was coming and going. The rooms seemed very nice. There was nothing negative that I could recall. The staff was very nice, answered all my questions, and provided us with a lot of information.

I am a fairly new resident (3 months). My daughter-in-law found this place for me. I am totally blown away on how good Elderwood is. The staff are, to a person, very caring and attentive to details. The sit-down meals are great. The facility is spacious, very clean and feels like home. Activities are another high point. I am surprised that I am saying this, but I have found my forever home.

Elderwood Village at Fairport probably would have been my first choice for my mom-in-law. They just don't have the licenses for advanced levels of care. The staff was great. They had lots of activities and they were friendly. The rooms were great. There's lots of good natural light. They had a salon, and a courtyard, and they do ice cream socials on Fridays. So, they're a very social community.

I would highly recommend the Elderwood Village at Fairport. It was a very nice facility, and the director who I met with a couple of times was just outstanding. I saw a private room. All of the rooms were very, very clean. Since we live in a big house, the size of the room was a little kind of hard to envision, someone just being in that room because it was small. But they have activities, and they have to leave their rooms to have meals, and they mingle. They had a little open garden area. I thought it was an excellent facility. I was just disappointed that it wasn't a skilled nursing facility. I just saw a room where they had projects that they were working on, something to keep their minds and their bodies active. The staff was very caring and professional. They were just wonderful people. The director was just so informative and so caring. Actually, after my tour, the director asked me if I would like them to bring me lunch the next day. So, they actually came to my home with lunch, and it was wonderful. They brought me fresh bread, fruit, and lentil soup. I just liked the parking lot; it was easy and accessible parking. The main lobby was beautiful. They have a big TV and leather upholstery chairs. It's a very nice place.

I wanted my mother to go to Elderwood Village because it's small, and the people, care, and food are just phenomenal. The problem was they don't have a Medicaid-supported bed yet, and my mom will be running out of money in three years. I didn't want to move her into a nursing home after the assisted living. They've applied for Medicaid, but New York state is not easy to deal with financially. It's close to things, it's clean, it's small, it's very familial, and the people there are just awesome. They're top of the line.

Elderwood Village at Fairport was very clean. The apartments were too small, and there was no kitchen in the community, so that was a real turn off for me. But it was small, nice, cozy, and everyone seemed nice and engaged. Although I didn't see as many activities in assisted living as in independent. They gave me a pound of pasta to go, which was nice. The staff member who accommodated me was Chelsea and she was wonderful. I had a very good tour; the staff who gave the tour was good.
