Assisted Living Reviews for Ecumenical Retirement Community

Our experience at Ecumenical Retirement Community has been great. They are very accommodating, very friendly, and nice, and they show great respect for their residents. The place is very nice. I have seen all areas of the facility, and everything is in good condition.

I visited this facility

Ecumenical Community, Inc., was very inviting and friendly-looking. It had a library and activities for the residents. The staff members who worked with us were very friendly and knowledgeable.

My mother lived there for several years and they were great with her. i would say 75 percent of the staff were great and very professional. The personal care aides are the true angels of that place. They are truly caring. The kitchen staff was great and very observant of the residents and their needs. Most of the activity directors were great. However, beware of a few things. When we were first applying there we asked the one manager, I believe her name was Megan, how much the rent increases were every year. She replied they were like normal rent increases in apartments. This is not true at all and as far as i am concerned false representation. They increased over a hundred dollars every year. I do not know of one apartment complex that hikes rent like that. Also, the higher you go in management beware the condescending attitudes when you question something about policy or health issues. These people need to remember you or your loved one are paying to be there and they are not doing you a favor by having your loved one there. i will still give this place a very good rating because of the day to day staff you or your loved will encounter. They are amazing.

I was able to visit Ecumenical Retirement, and I would like be in this facility, but the problem is that, in their independent living facility, you have to have your own doctor, and that is my biggest problem. We also took my mom there because we think it's the best place around here for the money. It's the only place that I can afford. It's a good place, and I've been there many times and know lots of people already. They have different kinds of activities that are posted in the building.

We choose Ecumenical Community for my mom because aside from the cost, they seem to have the most experienced with folks that had Alzheimer's and dementia. She's been there a couple of weeks and her doctor is an on-call doctor there which is good. They seem to have activities that are necessary to dementia patients to be active during the day. We are still in the transition stage and naturally the Alzheimer's patients will act out and going to be more confused. However, they seems to be handling it very well. There seems to be enough staff so that everybody gets individual care. They have been good working with us and taking care of my mom.

My mother is in Ecumenical Retirement Community. She likes it and fits in there well. The staff is absolutely wonderful and the food is very good. I've eaten there when I had lunch with my mother. The rooms are very clean. She has her own room which is good for her, because that's what she needed.

The staff and management are excellent and go above and beyond. My Mom has never been happier. I would recommend Ecumenical to anyone.

This facility is nice and very well priced as it is non profit. Unfortunately it was full at the time my brother and I were looking for a assisted living facility for our father. But, at least now we know why!
