Elmcroft of York

The team here is awesome -they make Elmcroft feel good! The Executive Director is kind and compassionate-she makes sure things are taken care of and there is good communication. Activities works to make sure residents are engaged. They help find and rekindle hobbies that residents think they can’t do anymore, like fulfilling dreams that otherwise wouldn’t be possible. Food is great and community is clean!

Elmcroft of York wasn't for us, but it was a nice place. The staff member during the tour was very knowledgeable, very nice, and really good. The room was very clean and very well laid out, and it had all the appropriate things that you'd want, like the no-lip showers and the pull chain for if they need help. It's strictly assisted living, so there are no steps involved. There's no independent living and no nursing care. The dining area was nice with tables and chairs, and they had tables that you could push wheelchairs up to. It's a little bit dated here and there and it's small, but it's nice. It would be nicer if there was a little bit more outdoor space. The layout was good. It's accessible for the elderly or people that have some confusion. I saw people just sitting around though. They all looked nice and everybody was dressed, but I didn't really see staff members interacting with them.

I like it because it was clean, very friendly, and small. The rooms were clean and fresh. They all have windows with decent views. It is very nicely appointed, and she can also bring her own furniture if she chooses to. They have different activities going on everyday. They have a large dining room for the residents, but they also have a small dining room if you want to celebrate small parties. We were able to talk to the chef, and he was wonderful.

It was very clean, and it was tastefully decorated. The personnel was warm and interested in the residents. They had good food, and they had a fireplace in the lobby and many of their occupational therapy activities occurred in that lobby as well as other kinds of meetings, church services, or concerts that other businesses would hold for them. It was good care, and the staff was attentive to my mother-in-law's needs.

My mom is here. It offers the most care for my mother. We like it better than the other facilities we visited. It's close to my sister, who spends a lot of time with her. The staff is very helpful and everything we could ask for. My mom raves about the food. What impresses me are the cleanliness, open spaces, and the daily activities. The staff is very warm and welcoming. The facility has new furnishings; they're very classy.

I had a tour; however, I was not able to actually see any room. The place was fine. I liked its proximity to everything from shopping, to hospital, medical appointments, and families.

It is a really great place. It is very close to a hospital, and it is really nice. I went in there actually before my meeting time with the lady I was supposed to meet with, and I talked with the some of the ladies and gentlemen that live there; they really like it. It is a beautiful place, and I like the fact that it is all on one floor. It is just very nice. The staff was very nice. I only met with the one lady, and she showed us around. She showed me the calendar, and it is quite a lot. They have a completely full monthly schedule of different things to do every day. They have trips to Wal-Mart and even rides in the country on the bus. I kind of like that the residents are able to sign up so they could do that. I also asked about us coming and taking my mom out for the weekend, and there was no problem it. It is very comfortable and homey, and it did not seem like an institution. It is lovely, and I think if my mom is going someplace, I would like to take her to see it. I was viewing it to make sure it is a nice place, and I thought it is really nice. I would definitely take her back to see this one.

My mom feels very comfortable here. At the beginning, she was resistant about going, but now she's very happy there. They have a very, very caring staff and she is being well taken care of. The place is all very clean, the food was very good, and they have activities where they also include the families. They have 64 residents in the facility.
