Appleridge Senior Living is sort of like hotel living. It's a large facility, but they have a lot of rooms there. There's a pool table and they have a big TV. I didn't meet any of the staff other than to ask for directions to the person's room I was going to visit. I know people from my church that live there, and they seem reasonably content with how they're treated.

Dad liked Appleridge very much. They had garages that my dad could keep his car in. It was very close to their Church, he could go to other places that he was familiar with like the grocery store, the activities that they had were comparable, and they would be near people that they know. My sister lives right there, and it is fairly close to myself and to my brother, but then they would have to travel two hours to Rochester to come to Rochester to see specialists, so that is the problem.

My parents moved here the summer of 2014. My father died suddenly just 3 short months later. The staff and residents have been wonderful. Security is excellent. They are caring and compassionate; always making sure the resident is safe and comfortable. My mom is surrounded by people who care and offer gentle advice. It is really helping her get through the loss and put one foot in front of the other. Beautiful apartments and common areas.

While the appearance of this place is clean and nice, the attention and care given to the residents and their family members is poor at best. Lots of lip service no action and very poor communication to concerned family members. Food is also terrible.

CLEAN,FRIENDLY. WE have an apartment at the end of the hall with many windows and a beautiful view over the hills of southern New York state. We are moving in April. Contact me again and I will let you know about the food. I am looking forward to not cooking!

Appleridge was a very homey facility. You walk in and there's a fireplace in the sitting room. It's very cozy and comfortable. The dining room was spectacular. Everything was clean. Everything was professional and very upscale-looking. The staff was very friendly. I only saw one apartment and I thought it was beautiful. They have their own stuff in there.

My mother had to pay $6,500 application fee. The application fee was not a deposit so no full or partial reimbursement. After 5 years living there, she passed away and they wanted 45 days rent.
They do provide nice activities for residents that are functional, though once one gets on assisted living, the amenities promised (rides to doctors, etc.) are non-existent, with excuse after excuse.
During her last months, I personally rang for help and no one would show up for at least 30-45 minutes. One specific date, Friday, October 22, myself and my daughter (a RN) pushed her alarm to ring for emergency service and no one showed up for over 30 minutes and my daughter finally left, I left 10 minutes later and no one ever showed. Horrendous. She passed away sometime in the night.
The head nurse, Kristen, is awesome, as well as a few of the employees. As with all senior facilities, they are undercompensated when doing a geographic comparison of wages in the same positions (RN, for example).
The $6,500 application fee is ridiculous when not applied for the 45 days at the end.
As mentioned by another, the physical appearance is beautiful, but care and food is not worth it. Unfortunately, hard to find any facility in senior living that is.
