My dad has been in Mackenzie Place for a little over a year. It's excellent. He has severe aphasia and he has to have help doing pretty much everything, but he is still in a room by himself. It's like he is living on his own, but they have to help shower him and help do everything for him. The rooms are awesome and spacious. People in assisted living can do their own laundry, and they have a microwave in their room so they can cook a meal in their room. It looks like a small apartment, but it doesn't have a stove. They pretty much have everything they need.
The staff members are excellent. I've eaten there with my dad before this Covid, and the food was delicious. Most of them have TVs in their rooms, but they also have one in the small sitting area that they use to congregate. They have bible studies and all kinds of activities for them. Before all of these went on, there was one lady who had a small ice cream truck that would go around and give them ice cream on certain days. They have puzzles, games, craft activities, and things like that. My dad doesn't really do all of that because he doesn't like it, but he will go to bible study and listen.

The rooms at Mackenzie Place were good. They're bigger than the rooms at most of the other places, which makes them nice. They don't have a library, but they have an area where you can play puzzles, cards, and do art work or things like that. It's an older building, although it's not really old. It's just a small community, not like a hotel, and not like a group home either. It's not a house. It's a standalone building.

Mackenzie Place is pretty and comfortable, and my mother loves the food. She’s in physical therapy. The staff is friendly and very helpful. They serve three meals a day, and they have a van available for doctor’s appointments. She likes it there.

I visited Mackenzie Place. I thought they were accommodating, and the people looked happy. It was close to where my parents lived, so they were familiar with the area. The dining area looked OK.

Mother stayed at Mackenzie Place for a month, and that was kind of rundown, a small place, probably ran on a pretty tight budget, and it wasn't that great. It just wasn't as good a fit. The residents were basically not at her level. Under the circumstances, we had to do something quickly, and they were about the only one that I could get her in, so we used their furniture. It was a hodgepodge, and the bed was horrible. I didn't realize it at the time how bad her bed was. She woke up aching all the time. I ate there a lot, and the food wasn't bad; it was OK. The room was small; it was a studio room.

My grandmother has lived at Mackenzie House for 3 years and we could not be more satisfied with her care. The staff is so caring and loving to her. I feel good knowing that she is so well taken care of. If quality care is what you're looking for, Mackenzie House delivers.

The building itself was like a big huge open square with wide and long halls. It wasn't very nice and the apartments weren't very big. Even though the accommodations would have been smaller, they were way more expensive.
