I am/was a resident of this facility

I\'ve lived here over a year. Constantly understaffed. Med techs and assistants are good. We have a new nurse for the facility as of a couple months ago. Previous nurse constantly was late with providing us with refills. Constantly late with refills leaving us residents to go without. I\'m not aware if that\'s been resolved. Some of the attendants are not qualified to do your personal laundry. They don\'t seem to mind if they ruin your clothing. The dining room again understaffed, service is slow. Over half the time you could wait 30-45 minutes do you have your order taken and then anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour before you receive your food. Half the time it\'s on the cool side. Heaven forbid if you wish to ask for anything in the meantime such as butter or additional condiments. Anything over my base needs such as recovering from surgeries are out of the question. They\'ll just leave you hanging. Even though ask for additional service before, after the surgery, then it\'s a big No. It\'s the management that provides less than quality service. Though everyone is friendly. It\'s odd.

The Ridge Foothill is a very nice, high-end assisted living facility with excellent food and many activities, but the staff is not as responsive as they could be. They seem to be overworked. My mother often has to wait in the dining room for service and she sometimes has to wait for responses, but she's pretty happy there. She's in a studio. They offer 1-bedrooms, but there's a big waiting list for anything beyond the studio. They have book clubs, game nights, happy hour, clinical discussion group, German club, musical programs, art classes, and manicures and pedicures. They have an art room in a beautiful setting with mountain views, a workout room, and daily exercise classes. They do not have any nursing care, but companies come from the outside to do treatment, PT and OT.

My friend is in St. Joseph Senior Living Apartments. The manager is very accommodating. The maintenance and housekeeping is like a family affair, and they're all very nice. They have an alarm system included in the rent, and the cleaning service is very reasonable. They put new carpet in his apartment and it's very clean and very nice. The bathtub is very accommodating because it has a drop step in the middle of it, so he doesn't have to step over the bathtub to get into the shower. The people are very nice. There are a lot more women than men, but he's a priest and there's quite a few priests living there. They also have 11:30 mass every day for Catholic people. It's been a very positive experience except the food doesn't accommodate diabetic people. They have special events like a band come in, there's a library, exercise bicycle, and free washers and dryers. They have a kitchen in the unit, but he doesn't cook. You have to pay extra for the food. It's an excellent facility.

We chose St. Joseph Senior Living Apartments for my father because they were the most reasonably priced. Meals are included, but you can pay extra to get that done. Everything is a la carte that you add on, so the base rate is a lot less expensive. The staff is very friendly and helpful. He is participating in activities and hosting a lot. He seems to enjoy it there.

I visited this facility

It had excellent programs. I would give the amenities and spaces a 4/5. For independent living, it's a very good place. If it were appropriate for my father, it would have been a great choice, but he would need assisted living.
