Mountain Glen Retirement Community

Frances

I toured Mountain Glen. It seemed like a lovely, welcoming community, and what I observed was that everybody seemed very happy there. They looked comfortable, relaxed, and happy, and I had a lot of fun with them. It's cheery and very homey. They had one bulletin board with people's photographs up there, and they had either been honored in some way or something. They were highlighting different people in different ways. The people that I talked with were all very nice and knowledgeable.

My sister-in-law is a resident of Mountain Glen Retirement Community. The people who run the place have taken the best care they can. They offer a lot of different activities for their residents. They always seem friendly and willing to help. All of the staff I've met, I like them. They've been very friendly and very concerned about my sister-in-law's well-being and how well she's doing. My only concern is the communication between myself and the staff. They don't have an individual phone number for the various people that I need to deal with. I have one single phone number to call, and then I have to try to get in touch with the individual who I need to speak to, and they're not always available. I have not personally tried the food there, but I have seen their menu. Their menu always looks great. They always have a choice of at least two, sometimes three different main courses. They have a chef there, and I have spoken to him. He seems very knowledgeable. They have exercise rooms. They have several libraries. They have all the amenities, and they have a hairdresser who comes in, like once a week or so. They have a wide range of different things. They play bingo every now and then, and card games. At one point, one of the residents there was playing a piano, and one of them was singing, and the rest of the people were just gathered around enjoying the entertainment. They also offer shuttle rides to residents, those who are able to go downtown and go shopping, and that sort of thing. I think you get what you pay for there. I don't have a problem with the cost.

I liked the friendliness of the staff and the meal options at Mountain Glen Retirement Community. My father-in-law will be moving in there and the room that we chose was a larger studio with a good-sized bathroom. He has a wheelchair, so it will accommodate his needs. They have a couple of larger gathering spaces, a little theater room, and an activity space, too.

My wife stayed in Mountain Glen Retirement Community. I liked it, it's well kept, and the food is excellent. They did the best they could. They have all kinds of activities, there's always something new every day. They have bingo, dominoes, cards, and sing-alongs. They have a library, and a pool table and they have ice cream socials once a week. The value is reasonable.

I toured Mountain Glen Retirement Community. They have all three levels of care, they are pet friendly, and they have good-sized rooms. All the staff were great. There were no problems whatsoever with any staff anywhere. We had a couple of meals there, and they were okay. Activities were the same average activities that everybody has everywhere else. That wasn't one of our biggest concerns, so I didn't pay a lot of attention to that. But they have a whole list of activities. As far as I know, it's our favorite one. It is a large community. It's like three stories high and probably has 80 units.

I visited Mountain Glen Retirement Community. I liked everything about it, but there was not much ground around it to walk on. Inside the building, every bathroom had regular commodes; they were not for handicapped people. They put up some hand rails, but they were behind the toilet. The staff was overly eager to help, or maybe sell, and they were absolutely friendly. I'm told by everybody I talked to that the food is outstanding. It was cheerful, well-laid out, comfortable, and there were elevators in more than one place that were big enough for a power chair to go in.
