Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care was a very lovely facility with good amenities, a clean new building that looked well-kept, friendly staff, and lots of social engagement. I saw many more residents out in the hall engaged with one another. They had done some very innovative things to get their residents through COVID and still have activities, which I appreciated about this community because most of the community did not. They locked people in a room for a year and a half and it was horrible. Very, very friendly people. I was disturbed that all the assisted living people were on the second floor thinking about fire escapes and such, but they did explain or rather an elaborate system in the building of electronic fire doors so they could isolate areas of fire protection and therefore get those residents out first and close the doors to prevent fire spread to other parts of the building, presuming that works, it was a great idea and. They had quite a few activities. They had a craft room and a gardening room, and most of these communities do pay pretty good attention to their activity schedule. So that was pleasing. I remember that they were charging as much as the upscale ones that I looked at, but they weren't quite that upscale.

The visit at Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care was fine. It is a two story facility, which to me is not conducive to what we need; we needed a one story type. It was very expensive. We got to go into a room. It was nice, has high end counters, and a teeny-tiny closet. They were very strict. We were only able to go into a few places, assuming this is due to COVID. We could not go where the people were living.

I visited Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care for my dad. I only met with one person, Fred, and I really liked him; he was really good and helpful. He showed a room that was just great, and it had a little kitchenette. I really liked that place. I did not go inside the facility due to the Covid restriction, but it all seemed nice and clean. I really liked the room, Fred and his knowledge and experience, and I liked the cost. They have one cost, and there is not going to be an additional cost for any additional help the person may need.

I placed my mother at this community since it seemed like a great place and the staff was very nice and helpful. Wrong. Big mistake. Once you have your relative in there things change. They give you a pendant for emergencies. My mother used the pendant four times and staff never came. They loose your clothes. They gave her an overdose of her medication which could of killed her. They don't return your calls. They don't consider your diet. My mother has heart problems and they were giving her bacon, mashed potatoes and dessert with every meal. Be careful, they will charge your account with out your permission and then you can't get your money back if you leave outside the contract time. That is what happened to my mother. Don't leave your loved one here unless you want to take a chance of something happening to them, like my mother. I finally had to remove her before something serious happened.

I’m not notified in a timely manner when my mother needs refills on her prescriptions. Once they notified me 5 days !! AFTER she ran out. The most recent incident mother had only 3 days remaining on one med when I was notified she needed a refill. One nurse even went as far as falsifying moms chart, documenting she had given mom med that she had ran out of. On a not so serious note, the cable satellite service is horrible. I notified the so called President of cedar bluff in Mansfield, Heather on Oct. 19, 2019 of this issue, which at that time she stated she was aware and other residents had complained as well. She said she would get back to me with a resolution, as of Jan. 3, 2020 I’m still waiting for the resolution.
As far as I’m concerned the administration leadership is horrible and just full of excuses and fluff. They listen to your concerns but DO NOTHING to resolve them. I would move my mom out of there in a heartbeat but my mother loves the residents she’s made friends with and majority of the support staff. It would be a great move for me but not such a great move for Mom right now. This place stresses me out and I have little trust in them.

Cedar Bluff is a very nice community. They have a good dining program, too. However, I don't think they have a good enough staff-to-tenant ratio. Their rooms are very adequate and their bathrooms are exceptional. My mom needs quite a bit of care. She is also in a wheelchair. They have a lot of people that come in to entertain. They have games, bingo, and an exercise program, which is excellent. They also take them out shopping. It is well rounded as far as activities go.

Cedar Bluff is literally an answer to prayer. My Dad has been living there for 6 months and loves it! Before he moved to Cedar Bluff, he was receiving home health care following a hospital stay. Unfortunately, he felt like a prisoner in his own home and, the home health care workers weren't the best. We started looking at assisted living communities to consider other options. Cedar Bluff was the 3rd place we looked at, but we both knew by the end of the visit that this was the place for him. My Dad's apartment is the smallest they have but still roomy with a great floor plan and view. The rest of Cedar Bluff is also beautiful, inviting, smells nice, and they even play great music! We love that Dad can be social, exercise his mind with games, body with exercise classes, and spirit with Bible study, but he can also have privacy in his own pretty apartment. He also has 3 great meals prepared for him in the dinning room, cleaning and laundry service, fun outings, and even live music! The staff couldn't be more warm, caring, supportive, and helpful. Dad is an independent person who didn't love the idea of assisted living, but he told me that he's surprised how quickly Cedar Bluff has felt like home. He is thriving, challenging himself, and has a sense of purpose. As his daughter, I am so very thankful for the outstanding, loving care he is receiving at Cedar Bluff. Don't hesitate to take a tour and see for yourself. Cedar Bluff is a blessing!

I viewed a number of facilities before I decided to move my mother to Cedar Bluff. The rooms and facilities are large and very attractive. On mom's first day, she had a number of staff stop by her room to introduce themselves to her. I loved that. All the staff are phenomenal , friendly and professional. They bent over backwards to help us move my mother in, despite her having to give a 30 day notice where she previously lived. They wanted to make sure to move her to a safe environment. Unfortunately my mother's help took a sudden turn for the worse and she returned from the hospital on hospice. Staff would stop by to check on not only her, but on us as well. They made sure her critical care nurses were fed. After mother passed, they made sure we knew they were not going to rush us out and to take all the time we needed. My husband loves it so much there, he is now a volunteer!

I would like to thank the staff at Cedar Bluff for all you have done for my mother..
My sister and I took my mother to look for an assistant living home. We looked at six, some were not friendly, some were dark and others were dirty. As soon as we walked into Cedar Bluff we knew we had found her home. T he office smelled wonderful and we were greeted with the biggest smile. Mary and Renee showed us, the efficiency and one bedroom. Both apartments were very light and airy and the residents were so happy and friendly. My mother was planning on moving in the fall, but when she called me the next day she said, “You may think I am crazy but I want to move now”. Two weeks later we were moving her in. As we were moving, residents introduce themselves and acted as one big family. The staff when above and beyond to make us comfortable, they hung her TV, put up her shoe rack up, and they even cleaned up their mess! God has blessed our mother and we will never be able to repay Cedar Bluff for all the love they have showed our mother. We can all rest a little easier since she in such loving hands.

Cedar Bluff has been great for my Dad. Just being around others his age and the care and concern of the staff has been great. The staff care go above and beyond to make them comfortable and happy. They keep them busy with games and activities. We waited a long time to make this decision and my Dad has improved since he has been there. He is very happy.

We saw Cedar Bluff, and we liked the overall location. The issue was that they do not accept my sister’s insurance or her Medicaid. The staff was very professional.

Cedar Bluff was very nice, very well maintained and had very nice rooms and friendly staff. There wasn't much land; they were kind of in a parking lot. There was a courtyard with a green area. The building was kept up and quite nice. Some of the rooms, although nice, were still very small and made for two people. It would need to be two people who are very much in love with each other because there was really no way to get away from each other in the very small living space; smaller than what my parents could tolerate.

Cedar Buff is by far the nicest place that we visited. It is not the cheapest one, but they are the nicest one. This is a brand-new facility. The room and staff are really good. My mother is kept busy all day long. The staff has them playing games and takes them out for a ride around the community. They do things and have a hair stylist that comes once a week to do their hair. The food is good, and she likes the it. They have therapy that comes in. She was in a wheelchair when she got there two months ago, and now she’s already walking with a walker and getting around. It has been a really good experience for her, and I am just proud that she is doing so well.

Cedar Bluff Assisted Living was very nice. All the people were very helpful; they took me all around and showed me everything. I got to talk to some of the residents and it was a good tour. I felt like I received a lot of good information from them.

We really liked Cedar Bluff. Our visit was very informative and very thorough. We were very impressed with it. It's brand new and my parents would be getting in on the ground floor. It has memory care and assisted living and they are going to have a one-bedroom apartment that's around 600 square feet. They are going to have a craft area. Right now, they only have three patients because they're still doing the final stages of being approved by the State, but they have a full-time chef that serves the meals. They provide housekeeping and laundry services once a week, which are all included in the price. They have ala carte where you only pay for the services that you need and it goes by point system. They also have transportation. It's a good setup. They have a beauty shop and a gardening club. They're going to have a woodworking shop, a gardening shop for people who wants to garden, and hobby areas to help them continue on to stay active and busy. If I was at a point where I needed to go in some place, that would be where I would go. The halls are wider, whiter color, and felt more uplifting. They even offered a seminar on things that we need to ask when we're moving mom and dad. They were helpful.
Memory Care Reviews for Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care

I visited this facility
My husband is moving into Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care. We went two separate times. Everyone was extremely friendly from the moment you walked in, and I liked the fact that everyone was trained for memory care patients. I like the openness, there was a lot of areas that the memory care patients could walk around and socialize. It didn't feel so closed off from everything. I like that they can walk out into a garden area themselves, it was very pretty. He loves the outdoors, so that's nice. I like the fact that we could come and take him places and bring him back. It was just a very calm, soothing environment, so you could see people walking around. Everybody wasn't in their rooms. It was beautiful, and it was nice.

I have had my mother-in-law in Cedar Bluff memory care for almost a year, and I can say that this facility was the best choice we could have ever made. The staff is very friendly, helpful, professional and caring. The facilities are top notch and my mother-in-law loves it there. I just moved my mother to Cedar Bluff assisted living, and she is very happy with this move. My wife and I could not be more pleased with the care our moms are getting now.

Cedar Bluff is exactly what we needed for my Mom. She was one of the first residents in Memory Care and I won't lie to you it was a struggle at first. Before moving to C.B. she had lived in the country on a ranch and was isolated. She wasn't very social and Cedar Bluff has done wonders with her. The staff has been a real blessing bringing her out of her shell. She still has her quirks but they all are so understanding and do everything they can to make her happy. I have visited other Memory Care facilities and they seem to have wanted her to conform to their style of care. Cedar Bluff did just the opposite. They looked at my Mom and her background and needs and they worked hard to conform to her needs.. She has so much peace of mind there. And that is what give us, her family peace of mind too! Could not be happier with our choice for our sweet Mom.
Questions about Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care
What ongoing training does the staff receive in dementia care?
Our Memory Care community is designed to empower residents to make their own living choices. Our approach is to educate families on new and productive patterns of communication with their loved one who is living with memory loss. Our entire team is NIDE (National Institute of Dementia Education) certified or scheduled to be trained. That includes everyone from the chefs and housekeepers to the concierge and nurses. This allows us to interact with our residents as unique people rather than objects in need of care.

We see opportunity. These divergent views from tradition have created a community filled with older adults living purposeful, engaged lives. Because it’s about seizing the day, every day. It’s about finding a passion that percolates you so much that you can’t wait to get out of bed each morning to get started. At Thrive, residents engage in events and activities (whether it’s having coffee in the library or dancing) they’ve always loved, along with new friends they’ve made who love them as much as they do.

It’s a unique model that focused on the human experience.
How does Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care keep residents' families informed about their loved ones?
Navigating the senior living world can be tough. There are no classes to teach you, no road maps to follow. Fortunately, you have us. Our goal is to make you smarter about the options you have available, based upon your loved ones needs and what’s going on after they move in. We have a monthly activities calendar that is printed and given to every resident to share with families about what is going on here in the community. We leave additional copies at the front desk for families and visitors to take with them. We love when our families join us for the fun events and games we host daily.
What is the care staff-to-resident ratio at Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care during daytime and nighttime hours?
We’ve spent the last few years carefully selecting team members who share our vision: a future society that will stand in awe and admiration of all older adults. People who see their mission as more than just a caretaker, but as a difference maker in the lives of those who live with us. We prefer not to look at our caregivers and medication aids as staff. Actually, when we hear that word we immediately think ‘staph infection.’ We prefer to refer to them as our "Experience Team." This is because they oversee the experience that your loved one will be having in our community. In our assisted living neighborhood our experience team to resident ratio is 1 to 10 during the day and 1 to 12 in the evening.
If Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care accepts dogs or cats, what indoor/outdoor areas can they enjoy?
Our attention to detail extends to our sense of space and we take great pride in our thoughtful, intentional design. So much so, that we not only have we created beautiful, purposefully-designed environments for you, but we have welcoming spaces for your pets, aka fur-babies, too. Although we do not allow furry friends to live here in the community we love when families and friends bring in their furry friends to spend time with our residents. Families are welcome to bring their furry friends to the resident’s room, courtyards, and dog park area.
What ongoing senior care training does the staff receive?
We don’t focus on giving great care. The focus is too low of a bar to shoot for. We focus on building meaningful relationships with our residents. We have found great care to be a by-product of great relationships. Many of our key leaders bring valuable experience to our industry from other fields. Our leaders believe that if we love our team well, they will, in turn, love our residents well. We have systems in place that assure residents are both free to explore their environment and maintain the dignity they deserve. We use both technology and team member observation to assure residents this freedom while keeping them protected.
How many staffers are on duty in the daytime and overnight?
We believe that the highest standards will provide residents and family with worry-free confidence in the overall resident experience. Knowing the needed help and team members are available when scheduled or requested needs arise is part of the overall “experience.” Staffing requirements vary by state licensing requirements and other considerations, such as the size of the community and services offered. We prefer not to look at our caregivers and medication aids as staff. When we hear that word we immediately think ‘staph infection.’ When prefer to refer to them as our "Experience Team." This is because they oversee the experience that your loved one will be having in our community. In our memory care neighborhood, we have 1 to 6 experience team members in the day time and 1 to 8 in the evening.
What safety features or security measures does Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care provide to protect residents who wander?
Our attention to detail extends to wandering residents as well. These residents are generally provided with greater supervision and security and we have team members and other caregivers that are accustomed to the impulsivity and reduced safety awareness that people with changing cognitive abilities may exhibit. The team members are trained to respectfully and humanely redirect the resident to the appropriate activity or location.
What programs or activities does Cedar Bluff Assisted Living & Memory Care offer to keep residents engaged? How does the staff engage residents' long-term memories?
Senior living doesn’t have to be sedentary. It should be full of activities and interactions that enrich, stimulate, and inspire older adults, with team members cheering them on every step of the way. That’s Thrive
Who assesses residents' health and cognitive functioning? How often is that assessment repeated?
Residents health and cognitive functioning are evaluated prior to move in and periodically based on resident need, physician orders, and regulatory requirements. At a minimum, these assessments may be done quarterly and when changes in resident condition necessitate an evaluation.
