Our experience with Lorien Harmony Hall was very cold and corporate. The executive team lacked…read moreempathy and compassion for our father who was in critical need of assisted living support. In August, we expressed interest in Lorien Harmony Hall for our father, who really liked the place when we toured. In October, Lorien's Executive Director, Victoria Rosier, decided to deny my father's admission based on an arbitrary clinical assessment that he needed sub-acute rehab first. They did not acknowledge current medical records, or clinical staff attempts to work with Harmony Hall for direct admission. The appropriate action would have been a peer-to-peer clinical discussion to clarify any questions. However, as the clinical case worker put it "they just don't want to take him". Our family invested $4500 in the community fee, had countless emails with Lorien over the course of two months only to be denied by email for an acute incident. When I told the Executive Director, Victoria Rosier, how disappointing this was, she said she was sorry we felt this way and our $4500 check was waiting at the concierge's desk. The entire experience was devastating and left us and our loved ones without planned support. While I believe the sales director, Chelsea, tried really hard to advocate for our family, I do not believe she has the support of her leadership team or the freedom to make executive decisions. She often had to get confirmation from her Executive Director, Victoria Rosier, to finalize any agreements. My experience with Victoria was not pleasant, she was often rigid and lacked the compassion expected of a healthcare executive. She also did not show the ability to be strategic to achieve a common goal, which was helping our father find as safe and welcoming home. My only advice to anyone is if you are looking for a compassionate team that will work to serve your family's needs, look somewhere else.

Like many of our elderly, there are challenges to be managed, many requiring a great deal of patience. The crew at Sunrise treat the residents with courtesy and kindness. This means a lot of me. Should anyone reading this review be faced with an elderly parent or family member requiring special attention, I hope you will give Sunrise Columbia a call. I can rest at ease knowing Mom is safe, nourished, receiving her medications on time and in good care. Having an elderly parent requiring specialized care is tough. Sunrise Columbia makes the journey through the experience manageable.

I cannot say enough good things about Visiting Angels - they were absolute lifesavers…read more My mother landed in the hospital, and since she was my father's primary caregiver, we had to scramble quickly for outside help. I started with another company that was affiliated with the hospital, they proved unreliable and created more stress than help. An employee at the hospital pulled me aside, explained she wasn't supposed to make recommendations, but she personally used Visiting Angels for her family. Not was she right. Simply put, I could not have asked for better support. Larry achieve was the coordinator in worked with, he made sure we had all of the help we needed. Caregivers were consistently good, extremely reliable, and very trustworthy. Larry checked in frequently to be sure we were satisfied. A few times we had to make last minute schedule changes, visiting angels was always accommodating. Bottom line, they are highly recommended.

We were able to work together and organize in having the company I work for fill 34 bags for the ones in need.

The day that Jill and Barbara received the Vet bags, they were both very appreciative, kind and warm. If these 2 wonderful women are like this, I could Only imagine how the other workers are at the facilities/homes. I will definitely work with Visiting Angels again in the future. Who knows I/family may use other services with them in the future as well. Highly Recommend.
