Landon Ridge Sugar Land Assisted Living and Memory Care

Elizabeth

Landon Ridge Sugar Land Assisted Living and Memory Care was the first place I visited and it looked like a possibility. It's clean and fresh. My mother-in-law would've liked it. She has an artistic personality and they had painting classes and stuff set up. They had a library, a TV room, painting classes once a week, and some other things going on. It had onsite memory care as well as assisted living. It had small studios as well as one-bedrooms. Everyone was friendly and doing their best to help me set things up for my mother-in-law to have a smooth transition. The food looked good. They had menus and it looked to be a very nice setup. They had an alternate menu for somebody who didn't like the full menu like hamburgers or sandwiches. It was a good location. It's very easy to get to.

My godmother lives in Landon Ridge Sugar Land Assisted Living & Memory Care. It's all on one big block and you can live in a building. The second floor is Alzheimer's care and my dad lived there before he passed away. The first floor is assisted living and you have small apartments there. She lives in their assisted living. She has her meals in the dining room, she goes play bingo, and she goes out and does crafts. I know she does things even though she's 95 years old. She has a one-bedroom, dining room, living room, and kitchen area. It's like a one-bedroom apartment, but it's an open apartment. They come in and clean once or twice a week. They assist with her showers and things like that. It's kept very nice. She's not a picky eater. She enjoys the food that's there. She does not cook for herself. Sometimes her daughter comes over and brings food and they'll have a meal in the room, so they can visit longer and more casually by doing it like that. They have crafts, a reading room, worship services, and bible study. The staff is awesome. It's a beautiful facility. It's so welcoming when you come in. When you walked in the door, you just feel like you just came home. You come into a library and everyone that works here stops and tells you, "Hello, how are you doing?" It's not phony. It's a truly sincere, "How are you doing? How are you?" and they're truly interested in how you are and who you are. If you are living there, they know your family. They recognize that you're somebody's daughter. They may say, "He's not having a good day today. It's a good thing you came because I think he's not just feeling up to par. He'll be glad to see you." She's very happy there. She needed to be closer to some family members and she needed to have a little more assistance and help and this is a place that could give it to her, so that's what she did.

My family member has lived at this facility for almost 2 years. Sadly the quality of care, communication, and overall management and care of the residents has declined a lot. We are looking for another place and will be moving soon. I'm posting this to help other families in making a difficult decision to find a new, caring home for their loved one. Unfortunately I strongly recommend going elsewhere.

I was very impressed with Landon Ridge Sugar Land. I was impressed when meeting the staff and the physical facility, but it did not meet my mother's needs. It was a very nice physical layout and they seemed to have lots of activities. The rooms were quite nice. The dining area looked quite nice, too. It is a fairly large community. They have 200 plus people there. It is newer and spacious. It is almost too spacious because the rooms are fairly far apart. I did not see any activity rooms so I don't know what daily activities that they have. The atmosphere seems nice. The staff members are quite good and knowledgeable.

My mother picked Landon Ridge Sugar Land, and moved in around 2 weeks ago. The staff is good, and the rooms are small, but clean. They have a library, they have games, transportation, outings, and the things she wants. The food is average. They made it easy to move in, and she is getting the attention she needs.

Landon Ridge was beautiful, everyone was very professional, and the residents seemed to be enjoying themselves. The salesperson was a delight, gave me all the details, and gave me a tour of the different facilities, including what they offer. I liked the environment. They have a lot of amenities, a lot of common spaces, and they have an outdoor area. I liked the layout of the apartments. I was overall extremely pleased. They had bigger and smaller one-bedroom apartments, and studio or efficiency ones, with plenty of closet space, a microwave, and a refrigerator.

My mom is at Landon Ridge. The whole place is lovely. It used to be Sycamore Place. However, they have a need for more employees, that's where we've had some trouble. Now, it seems to be going more smoothly. It's working out much better than we expected. My mom's room is beautiful. It's 2-rooms with a small kitchenette that she doesn't use. There are places where families can meet and talk. They have a popcorn cookie place, a fancy room, an activity room, a music room, and an exercise room. The chef cooks the local cuisine. The staff members who work with my mother are extremely nice, patient, and very sweet. They have lots of activities. My mom cannot see, but they have been able to accommodate and help her, so that's been great. The activities have been fabulous. They have music, of course, and sometimes they have kids come in and do things with them. They have lots of storytelling, which my mom loves. It is called The Treasured Memory. Everybody brings what they want and tells whatever story they want. It is very nice; it's fabulous.

The Sycamores at Sugar Land was a very nice, clean, new community with an excellent layout. They had windows that illuminated the halls, so you don't feel closed in. The service looked very nice, too. The staff was attentive. One of them spoke Spanish, so that's a plus. We were looking for places that have Spanish-speaking staff because Spanish is my mom's first language, and she doesn't remember too much of her English.

I liked everything about The Sycamores at Sugar Land, including the staff and land. However, it catered more to assisted as opposed to independent living. They had a salon, a library, and a game room. The dining area was decent. It was a comfortable community with a beautiful landscape, but it was too expensive and the rooms were too small.

I chose The Sycamores at Sugar Land for my mom. The place is fine and relatively new. She improved somewhat since she moved there. She gets three meals a day and is able to retain her strength. The food was fair and sufficient for her needs. They do play bingo and exercises in the morning. Her room is just right for her; not small nor big.

I liked The Sycamores at Sugar Land a lot, but it was farther away from us, and the rooms weren’t quite as big as the ones in the other facility we saw. I didn’t taste their food, but this community is definitely a very good option. It is a newer Brookdale facility, so it’s well established.

My parents are at The Sycamores at Sugar Land. It’s a convenient location to us and has friendly staff, a lot of social activities, and an excellent dining area. They have a good chef and three meals a day. They could improve on the weekend staffing response time. They secure access at 8:00 in the evening and when we returned with my mom from the hospital at about 8:30, it was kind of a hassle to get back in to get her to her room. I don’t think that should ever happen to somebody that paid that kind of money for a room. They have a system in place with automatic doors, and after 8:00, you push a button and an attendant comes to opens it for you. It so happened the attendant was on break, and we couldn’t get her in; my mother was on a walker and wasn’t very comfortable. That would be my only complaint with the place. We told the manager about it, so I’m sure it will be addressed.

I like The Sycamores at Sugar Land for my parents. The staff was very nice. She answered a lot of questions. She took me on a full tour. The facility looked very nice. I like it.

Actually I have been going in there at The Sycamores off and on for the last two and a half months. It is a brand new place that they have been building all last year. They gave several tours where you got to meet staff members. What I liked about it was that they have three different sections to it. They have memory care, assisted living, and skilled nursing. My mother needs skilled nursing, and my dad needs memory care. They can accommodate both of my parents. It is much cheaper, and the facility is so much nicer. They have partnerships with other places in Sugarland that would come in and give people exercise, take them on trip,s and go on walks. They have all kinds of things, and there are lots of activities that they planned. It is very contemporary. It is just a very warm feeling, and I really like working with the staff.

We have chosen one for our mother. It's a new facility called The Sycamores at Sugar Land. They're just finishing it. A lady from Caring.com mentioned it to me. My brother lives in Sugar Land, so he had driven by to see it. We went by there, and we liked it. It is beautiful. There are hotels, restaurants, and lots of medical facilities close by. The rooms are spacious enough. We had a choice of one-bedroom or two-bedroom or just a studio. I know they're going to have exercise and different activities. They got a bus already. In talking to the director, she said they really want to wait and see what the community's interests are. One of the things we liked is that it was new, so everybody coming there would be starting fresh. As we walked around the building, in the entryway, it's got a reception area there. It has some places for you to sit and socialize. The dining area was not seen from that area, so people can have privacy there, away from people walking in. It was a separate room; it's not like anybody can walk in through the front door and see all the residents.
