Independent Living Community in Ormond Beach, Florida

daughter of previous resident

My elderly mother lived here and had to be moved out, due to lack of care. The staff is very rude and they do not fulfill their duties as health care providers and care takers. The \"nurses\" are never to be seen.If you ask for anything or try to follow up you get no response or attitude. Extremely sad. I had to watch my mother decline drastically during her time there. My mother had difficulty taking care of herself and she had to beg the nurses to get a shower and she still would be ignored !!!! I wound not recommend this place to anyone!!

Ormond in the Pines was a nice community and the people were really friendly. I saw a room, and it was spacious, and very comfortable looking. It was also handicapped accessible, which is good for me. It had a small kitchenette. I saw the dining room, people were playing bingo, cards, and things like that. It was a great place, and if they would take me I would take them. I also saw a couple of the specialized rooms for parties and things like that. I talked to their coordinator who does all the exercise stuff and activities for the seniors. She told me there was a lot to do there and I was impressed. I didn't sample anything to eat, but I looked at the menu and it looks good. They offer three meals a day. They also have kitchenettes in the rooms, so a guy like me could even eat five times a day if I wanted.

Seaside Manor was very much willing to work with us. The people were friendly. The rooms were spacious. It was an older place. My husband, who is an electrician, noticed that the electrical panels were quite old. That was the only negative that we saw, other than that, everything else seemed very nice. They have Aloha Night and church services, a library, a van, and activities that they would sign up for to go to. They also had a good chef.

Gold Choice was new and clean. The people were very friendly. They were very willing to help us with the financials. They had the van that you could sign up to go places, but they did not have the swimming pool. They had a memory care unit. The rooms were more like small efficiency bedrooms that didn't have any kitchens in them. Residents could bring their own mini fridge and microwave, but that was the extent. It was basically a bed, a nightstand, and a place to put your TV with a bathroom.

Gold Choice Senior Communities was too expensive so we just couldn't deal with it. It was really nice. The amenities were very nice. There's a courtyard, and they have a lot of things going on there. The staff who showed me around was really nice.
