Azura Memory Care of Eau Claire

I loved my tour of Azura Memory Care of Eau Claire, but there was no opening at the time. It was beautiful, very nice, and friendly, and that would have been my first choice. When I was there, they were watching the Hamilton play, which was very interesting because both the men and the women seemed to enjoy it. They also had a beauty parlor.

We went to Azura Memory Care of Eau Claire. The manager was not there, so just one of the staff members showed us around. The tour was OK. He was friendly, but it was not as good as the other place. There was a nice outside area and it was completely fenced, so they couldn't get out. At the time we were there, they were eating. The place didn't impress me that much. It was nice enough.

The tour we had with Azura Memory Care of Eau Claire was great. They're the ones that had three different room sizes. It's also nice that they had a lot of activities. The residents can do some of their own cooking there if they want and the layout was nice. The residents could walk around without getting lost or anything. They also had nice patios, gardens, and a nice activity room. The staff answered all of our questions and was very informative.

I toured Azura Memory Care of Eau Claire. It was a beautiful and very nice facility. It was perfect for my mother, but not my dad. I liked the way that all of the hallways led common areas, there were no dead ends, there were little places to sit, I love the colors they painted in there, it was so peaceful and calming, and I could have laid down and taken a nap there. The people were very nice, I saw the residents dressed appropriately, their faces were clean, and they looked happy. The facility was very clean, and well-maintained. The staff sat down one to one with me and probably talked to me for 45 minutes, answered all of my questions, was very knowledegable about their programs, and I learned a lot from her. It was a very pleasant atmosphere, and they had consulted with somebody that specializes in decor for memory care facilities.

My dad and mom lived at Azura and the experience was truly amazing! The caregivers are so well trained and compassionate they made all of us feel like family. We had originally put mom elsewhere, but it was quickly apparent they had no idea what Alzheimer's was and expected her to remember to take her medications and wouldn't do simple things like cut up her meat and allowed her to not eat. At Azura things were so different, the girls always introduced themselves when they spoke to her and spent time talking with her, holding her hands and event painting her nails. My dad can get gruff at times and they always found a way to make him smile and come out of his room. When we asked our doctor and others where to take them everyone said that Azura was the place, but my brother was worried because they don't have bathrooms in their rooms and that's why mom went some place else first. At that place she never came out of her room and within weeks they locked the door because she might fall or use it in appropriately. Needless to say we moved her and now she is always out of her room, smiling, singing, baking, doing exercises. When we really thought about it a person only spends like 30 - 45 minutes in the bathroom and maybe 8 - 10 asleep the other 13+ hours we wanted them to be surrounded by people who love them. That's what we found at Azura, people who love them and treat everyone like family. If I could I would live there!
