12 Assisted Living Communities in Idaho Falls, Idaho

I was impressed with Lincoln Court. It was clean and there was a lot of light in the facility. The staff seemed very friendly and knowledgeable. They're still under a semi-Covid situation, so they're not doing everything that they were before, but it is getting better because people are getting their vaccinations. The staff members were very nice. I was very impressed with the building itself. I don't think it's new, but it certainly looks very well kept.

Lincoln Court looked like a good place. The staff gave a good tour, talked about stuff, and defined their program. It looked like a well-run organization. We looked at a couple of studio apartments, and they're good, a little older, but in good shape, and they're safe. They had a nice courtyard, a nice entry area, and the common areas looked really good. You get rid of this COVID stuff, I think it would be a very comfortable place to live.

Parkwood Meadows Assisted Living is nice. We toured several places and this one is good. The staff members are all good. They've been very nice, came around and introduced themselves, and a couple went out of their way to make sure my mother is OK and knows about things. The dining area is nice, and the one meal I saw my mother had when I was with her was good. The activities seem fine. I have seen the calendar, and they have things like movie nights, shopping trips, and dates for doctors' appointments.

My parents chose Lincoln Court and they're in the assisted living level. It has better medical care for them. The rooms at the other community we went to were nicer than the ones in Lincoln court, and more handicapped accessible as well. The staff was very receptive and nice, and all the staff members were excellent. They had very good food, and they do quite a bit of activities. There are some issues with their apartments though.

Lincoln Court was a great place. My husband was real taken care of and the food was great. It's a good place to find. It was nice to have him there while I had my surgery. They do physical therapy and they have a memory program. His room was very clean and the staff was wonderful. Our children went to see him and they thought it was great.

Randy

Lincoln Court was nice and remodeled. The room they showed me was great. The people were very friendly and very helpful. They had a lot of elaborate things going on and drive an hour and a half to see sites and do things that they wouldn't normally do in assisted living. They had quite a wide range of food on their menus. The staff was very nice. They had a library, a beauty salon, a facility where they could work out a little bit, and a nice courtyard where they plant flowers.

Marcheta

Lincoln Court was OK, but they're such a big community. The apartments they showed us were lovely and were being repainted and redone to be really nice. When you look out the windows, there's a small courtyard, and you won't see very far because it's built right in town. The staff member we met was very nice, and the place was clean. They would bring the residents nine meals a month, and then they charge extra after that. They do the towels and sheets and you have to pay $15 a load if you want them to do your personal laundry, so the family would usually come in and do the personal laundry for the patrons.

Fairwinds - Sand Creek was incredible, they're like a dream come true. They had something like a 5-star service in their brochure, but when we took the tour, we felt like they should add another star. The food, facilities, and spaces were great. The activities and all the things they do just to make the seniors happy made us feel good. I learned that they have the old-time fiddlers come into and play, which is cool. They have pianos available, and meet-and-greet rooms for the residents to talk, or see a movie, and just do whatever they want to do. There's also a car for wherever they want to go. The person who gave me the tour was delightful, she didn't hurry and took the time to answer our questions. She also asked if we wanted to see anything else. We didn't feel forced or anything, so it was great.

Dee

Lincoln Court was a little older than the other place we visited, but it was beautiful. We really liked the rooms, especially the large studio with the big, bright windows. They were popping corn so we checked that out. They also get the old-time fiddlers to come there and play, which is very cool. The dining area was extremely nice, high-end, with great service, attention to detail, and yummy food. The person who gave us the tour was youthful, energetic, and she was a lot of fun. Everybody was wearing a sports thing that day. It's pretty nice.
