Assisted Living Communities in Arlington, TX

"The tour here was very nice. They have very nice rooms. I was really hoping that the actual apartment had an outside door that went to a courtyard or something, but they don't have that. But they had a lot of outside areas where you could go out. The staff was very good. The facility was very clean. When we went in they had some water damage, but they were redoing the floor. It's a little hard to tell people how to get there because it's off Interstate 20. They offer three meals a day and snacks."

"I toured Morada Grand Prairie for my mother-in-law. When I went there it was early so it was quiet. The place was very clean and neat, and the people were friendly. The staff was willing to answer any questions and offered help with anything. Everybody was very attentive. For activities, I know there was crocheting and things that my mother-in-law likes."

"We've looked into Mayberry Gardens, Grand Prairie's assisted living. The tour was very good, and I liked it a lot. I like the facility and the people there. They have four buildings on the same level and it's a very nice facility, but my parents are not interested at this time. They also have memory care there; if the need for care progresses, they could change it. I thought it was excellent. I thought the facilities were clean, nicely organized, and had good people running them. I was very impressed with the buildings, but it was mostly the people and how professional they were. They seemed very good. The rooms are good. We were looking at 1-bedroom apartments with a living room. They're small, but you have to look at the living facility that they're in. You have to look outside the room, and they have other rooms where the residents meet with people from all around. They have recreational areas, a barber shop, and a salon. There was a lady there that's been cutting hair and doing men's hair for years, and it looked very nice. They also have activities that they schedule all the time. We met a lady there, her husband's gone now, and she's like 95 years old. She was so ecstatic and showed us her room and how she decorated it. She's happy there. She's got a daughter who lives close by. For a 95-year-old, she was still very energetic, and she didn't have anything bad to say about this facility. She's one of the original people who has been there since day one. She loves it, and her apartment is set up like her house. I wish I could remember the name of the person who gave us the tour because she was great. There's also a young lady whom we talked to about finances. They had an opening for a larger room, but we were thinking we had to talk to mom and dad first, and they held it for us with no money down for a couple of days. They worked with us so well, it was nice. All of the staff members there were outstanding. They are all on top of it. We checked the dining area, but we didn't try the food at that time. For each building, they have their own managers, cooks, and facility people. They all seemed to be very knowledgeable and very professional, and it was a very clean facility. You walk out of your apartment, and you go out into the living area and the kitchen, and everything's there. If the residents wanted a cup of coffee or a cup of tea, it's all provided right there. They take care of all the medicines, too, so your parents can rely on them in giving their medications and everything, which is nice."

"I toured recently for my Mother and was blown away by the hospitality. We were offered a lunch tour and then once they found out how much she loves to get her hair done they invited her to a spa day! The special touches shows me that they care and will go the extra mile."

"Beautiful facility, the staff is amazing my mom absolutely loves it there she brags on the food all the time. Greatly enjoys the church service that terry put together. she says it makes it feel like she's at home. front desk is always so helpful bobbie terry and alice have made the move in nice and effortless thank you guys for taking such good care of mom"

"We visited Brookdale Mansfield. It's a smaller community and there are only 37 rooms. It's very secure. It had activities. They had a small formal dining room where all the residents ate and it had a large room for activities with big-screen TVs. She told us that men who lived there during baseball season gathered in the community room. They watch it, make popcorn and hotdogs, and just make it like they were at the game. Gracie, the executive director, is the one who showed us around. She's very knowledgeable about VA benefits. They were offering a promotion. She made sure she brought up the promotion where we could save $1,000 a month and it's not for one month, it's for the duration of the stay."

"All the caregivers are excellent. They do a really good job of taking care of my needs, while being friendly & cheerful."

"This is a great place. Everyone is very friendly. I say it starts with management who encourage and are so welcoming. From my first meeting with Peggy and then Megan meeting with us to show my Dad around, we were sold. All of the staff do a great job. My Dad felt like it was his new home. Unfortunately, due to health issues, he had to move to a different community. He says his goal is to get strong enough to return to Eden Estates."

"It had all three levels of care, but I visited the independent living. They told me that it was only built five years ago. It was good, but the rooms were probably average. I saw the dining area. They had three meals a day and there was a snack area where you could pick up snacks any time of the day. For the size of the facility, the dining area seemed to be small, but they told me that if you would go for independent living, you can eat in the assisted living dining room as well. I met one staff member, and she was friendly. She knew what she was talking about. It looked like an apartment building. It's four stories. It seemed to be clean."

"I toured Cedar Bluff Assisted Living and Memory Care. I met several of the staff, and they were very helpful and very inviting. When you first walk into their community, they have a very warm and inviting entrance, and the feel of it is very, very nice. It's a beautiful place, and walking through it, there are so many different things that I know my parents would be able to take advantage of like meeting others and having things to do to keep them busy and things like that. They had a very nice variety on the menu. The living spaces were very nice, too. They're going to be smaller than what they're used to, but they would be sufficient for a couple. Because it would be for my parents, the unit would probably be a deluxe model with a kitchenette. It would be very helpful because they can still have their own snacks, and if they want to have lunch there, they can provide for themselves and still feel like they're in their own place doing their own thing. The cleanliness and condition of the place was awesome. They were very clean, very bright, very open, very spacious as far as the hallways and elevators and things like that. It was very easy to move around in. From everything I saw, it was very nice, very clean and neat."

"We like Brookdale Richland Hills a lot. What I liked best was how well-kept it was. The interior was updated, so it was nice as far as that goes. The lady staff who helped us was very nice. She was great. She was informative. But when we tried to get back in touch with her afterward, we never could get in touch with her. With regards to cleanliness and structure, it's very good and very well constructed. The atmosphere of it seemed active and friendly. It seemed good."

"Ashwood Court was nice and clean, and the representative that spoke with us was very informative. Overall, it was a great experience. We only saw one room and it was very nice, very large, and accommodating for someone that is in a powered chair, so we were pleased with that. The outdoor spaces were very nice. They had a courtyard with seating and a waterfall type thing. It looked very pleasant."

"My parents moved to Highlands Village Senior Living. They got the second to the smallest room, and it's very roomy. The ceilings are high, so it makes it feel bigger. We're able to get both of their queen-size beds in there with the little loveseat. So far, their services seem great. They've only been there since Tuesday, so there's a little bit of adjustment and growing pains type of thing, but they've been very kind and tried to go out of their way to help however they can. They have bingo, card games, puzzles, and exercise. They have prayer services, church services, a movie theater for watching movies, and more. The dining area is top-notch. It is beautiful, and they have assigned seats. So, they're familiar with where they're going to eat every day, and then they get to select their own menu for the next day. So far, the food's been good."
