Village on the Park - Friendswood

Nancy

I was visiting an uncle that lived at Village on the Park - Friendswood. We liked having meals together. Except in the midst of COVID, they welcomed visitors. I would enjoy going in and having dinner and breakfast sometimes on the weekends with him. They're all one story. He lived on the very end of a wing and we would visit on his patio. The apartments were indoors. They did not have a breakfast area in the apartment though. They take a van to different places and different stores. They offer dominoes, bingo, movies, and happy hours. They offered a lot. The staff was great. I feel like they took their time to get to know my uncle and my aunt. When my uncle turned 90, we bought a birthday cake and gave him a small party, and the lady that worked in the front that managed the place came and sat down and ate cake with us. She made an effort to get to know him. They just didn't keep the same cook and there were times we'd go and the food wouldn't be as good.

It was excellent. They showed me a one-bedroom and it was good; they were spacious and clean. They had a laundry room, they had some open areas outside, and there was a dining room where they eat. They also have a special dining room for when family visits. It's pretty quiet and peaceful there. They have outdoor areas and you can walk outside.

In the course of helping my parents as they have aged, we have had numerous experiences at different places and I can honestly say I think this community is as good as it gets! I believe it all comes down to the people who work there and how they treat their residents. Here everyone is treated with dignity and respect and they truly care and love on their residents. The food is great and there is a wide range of activities available and the grounds are beautiful and well maintained. Its also close and convenient to doctors, labs, hospitals, etc. No place if perfect but this place is close and I highly recommend it!

We were very pleased here. It had a lot of activities for the residents. The physical layout itself was very pleasant and well decorated. It had a nice dining room that was very accommodating to the residents. The place allowed the residents to live as independently as they could.

We visited here for my ex-husband. The place was really nice, good, and wonderful. Out of the places we visited, he said that's where he wants to go. The staff members were great, walked us through, and showed us different things.

It was very convenient, and it seemed like the best match for mom. It was self-contained and very secured, she can come and go whenever she wants, and they have a lot of live music.

The staff was very friendly here. I saw them interact with the residents, and they were very active. It was very clean, and it smelled good. It was a very beautiful place. They showed me two rooms. The shared room was very spacious, very nice, and very clean. The single room was also very spacious with a full bath. The colors were bright. They had bingo.

It is about 5 minutes from my house. The staff is very good. It is an independent living facility, but they do have a dining room and people that work there. They also have the front desk people and a social director, and they are all very good. They just remodeled the dining room, and it is very nice. They have waiters who bring the food to your table. As far as the apartment, it is a little small, and my mother lives in a 2,500-square foot home, so this 600-squre feet space seems small but it is adequate. They have activities like bingo, trips, entertainers, ice cream socials, and parties. I think they can improve on communication. Because it is an independent living place, it is not as secure as some places, but my mother is OK because she's not wandering around. They do have someone at the front desk 24 hours a day. So, that works out OK.

My grandmother moved in here in March. My mother chose it because she was starting to come down with Alzheimer's. They have a game room and a salon, where you can get your hair done. They have movies. They have three meals a day but you can also have food inside your own apartment. The dining room is nice. My grandmother has a one-bedroom-one-bathroom. It has a little kitchen area, a living room, and a bedroom with a full bathroom. The staff is very nice. Apparently, my mom's relationship with the caretakers who are around is really good because with any problems, they will call her and communicate well with her and let her know what's going on. Overall, Village on the Park is a really nice community. If my mother would have to live there, I would put her there. Also my grandmother has a couple of friends there. The ones she grew up with just so happen to be there too, so she is not alone.
