The Blake At Baxter Village

Lance

My mother is at the Blake at Baxter Village. We chose it mostly because of the memory care and then their ability to make sure she's eating correctly, she's hydrating, and she's getting her medication at the correct time. The staff is very helpful. Most of the activities are just getting out. Some of them are able to go and do different things like arts and crafts, and possibly a shopping day or something like that, but most of the people that are in memory care are unable. There are various degrees of people in memory care. It's a new facility and it's very clean. They have a courtyard and a hair salon. It's near restaurants and hospitals.

The Blake At Baxter Village was very nice. We liked the people that were helping us, like Alex. She helped us out a lot. Overall, I thought it was nice for the value. The apartments were nice. They're bigger than some of the other ones I saw. The dining room was beautiful and nice. They have an outdoor area right off the dining area and then they have a private room if you want to have a family dinner. They order off of a menu instead of just everything preselected and then they just bring it to you. In some places, you have to order what you want a week ahead of time, but this place offers choices every day. From what I saw, the outdoor areas looked nice.

We liked pretty much everything about our tour of The Blake at Baxter Village. We like the way it looks, the program, the atmosphere, the age of the people, and the services that they offer. It seems to be a well-run place, and a well-put together place. It will serve my mother and what her needs are now. I was able to meet with the director who was very thorough on what she did. From what I viewed and saw, the facility had a lot of things that they could offer the people. I also looked in the room, they had a salon, they had a courtyard, an art room, and a movie theater.

The Blake At Baxter Village was OK. The tour was pretty thorough. They offered a lot of different things, but it just didn't appeal to me. The person who gave the tour was very nice and knowledgeable. The rooms were fairly small. I have a king-sized bed and it wouldn't fit in the bedroom. The community was OK and homey. The dining area is just a big room with lots of tables in it. At the time I was there, they had somebody there singing, but that's all they're doing.

The Blake at Baxter Village was very cosmopolitan, very sophisticated, and a little upper level. It was very nice, clean, and new. It had a lot of amenities, but it was definitely more expensive than others. The staff was great. The space was nice. I didn't get to meet much of the staff though. We only met the sales director and maybe one CNA. The sales director was friendly; she's great. It was like a hotel lobby and it's very nice. It kind of had a different feel, not near as downhome friendly. It's more of an upper class type of assisted living and more intellectual based. They had a theater, a workout room, and a little craft room.

We have chosen The Blake at Baxter Village. We went to see it and they were really friendly and informative. I just liked everything about the place. I thought it would be an excellent new home for my mother. They showed me the assisted living part. Diana was the one who showed me the place, and I just really liked her because she was straightforward. She did not try to pressure me, and she answered a lot of questions that I wasn't clear on before I talked with her. I toured the dining area and I was really impressed with the menu that I saw. They had a special of the day, and then a nice menu that you could choose from if you weren't interested in the special of the day. They had a courtyard, a beauty salon, and an area where people could gather and visit. They had a rehab section and a couple of cafeterias, one for memory care and one for assisted living.
