Nurse's help in a time of need

It was roughly 5:30 one morning and I had a medical emergency, so I pressed my button half asleep and the nurse was in here quickly and calmly ready to help. She just told me to relax as she cleaned around my room, never once making a big deal of it. She helped make arrangements on the spot about further treatment. It was nice how calm she was about the situation. I also have several friends on the dining staff, [name removed] being one of my closest friends.

The Crossings at Covington Commons

Apartment size good. Always plenty of activities and outings. Food choices plentiful Nurses have always been helpful. Cleaning staff not the best and not on any schedule. Her bathroom has not been cleaned in weeks. Toilet is brown. Water on the floor spilled down the hall. Employees just walking around it.

Would not recommend

Overall not recommended. No tour of the property, and I asked about help with cardboard while moving and was told to use my truck. I don't drive. MS is stable but when will it hit again? Also mold on the patio door caused fatigue and runny nose. I'll never go back and when I talked to other residents they did not appear to be happy.

Not a perfect placement

Staff does not communicate well with each other. Week 3 of new resident and last week they still could not get her bedding or personal laundry day done when they told us it was going to be. Lots of activities is a plus. Not sure how often they actually check on their residents

Review for The Crossings at Covington Commons

The staff that cared for daily was short with her and made her feel like she was bothering them if she needed something. The staff tried to get her to stand regularly and use a walker when she was not supposed to. This direction was given to them by her oncology physician. She had bone cancer in her hip that was at risk for pathological fracture. I discussed this with nurses, staff and rehab but all still made her stand, pivot and walk with a walker. She liked the food

I met with the sales manager and discussed the needs of my relative both physical and financial. We then took a tour of the facility together. I left feeling hopeful and pleased but found the next day that there had been a misunderstanding regarding the option of Medicaid eligibility if needed in the future.

5 Star needs better communication among the staff and family

The food was great. The communication between the family and staff was not good. [name removed] the Executive Director did not call me back after 3 times I called her.

This would be a great fit for my mom. She will love all the activities and the salon. I met some very nice nurses who introduced themselves and asked about my mom. They really seemed interested. I met the kitchen staff too. The menu has a lot of great choices.

Dad loves it here

My father has lived in this community for several years. He has been very happy with the care he receives and I am rest easy knowing he is supported by such great people. The food is excellent too. I have had meals with him many times and have enjoyed every meal. The chef has been with this community more than 20 years and he takes real pride in his menu and listens to the residents requests. I highly recommend this community to families looking for their loved ones and the peace of mind it provides.

I love this place

I work here for 24 years. When I'm here I feel like I'm at home with my family. Residents love our food and they enjoy every meal of the day. They have the choice to choose what they like to eat from the menu. They are always welcome to talk to the kitchen manager and express their wishes. I like talking to them and listen to their interesting stories that they like to tell others, which makes me and them happy.

The food was very delicious and the service was wonderful. The dining workers are very caring and understanding. The only issue I have is the carpet in the dining room I wish they would get new carpet other than that I love it.

I believe they try to keep the resident busy with activities. There are plenty activities to do. The food is decent and the place is clean. The staff are very friendly and not arrogant. I would definitely recommend the facility to friends and family.

No comment on the care services and meals and dining - independent living. The activities are a 5 though my dad didn't participate as much as he should have. The staff was very friendly, helpful and responsive.

Their executive director hasn't followed through on some requests, like connecting us with services, like senior assistance and health care. There was no orientation to their property. It's a nice facility and I would recommend it...I just wish they were more helpful after signing the lease. It seems like the services dropped once we signed

Almost Perfect

Only thing keeping this from a 5 is maintenance. Routine maintenance is lacking. Examples are changing of furnace filters. Cleaning of outdoor air conditioner units (ie. Fins are not cleaned until the system cannot cool to a comfortable 72 degrees. Individual work orders are required by renters when these things fail.

My Dad recommends Five Star.

. My dad is very happy there. My dad says the food is so good. The maintainance is a little slow getting to things but things do get done. My dad is not a real social guy but it's good to know that he can join in any of them .

Friendly and caring staff

The staff is very friendly to the residents and guests. In the dining hall the staff that I had just been introduced to even called me by name for a meal and were very friendly and attentive to me. They know all the residents names and what their favorites foods are. The residents are happy, friendly, and entertaining.
