My Mom moved into Suzanne Elise January 2nd 2024 and everyone there has been wonderful to work with…read moreand wonderful to Mom... They really worked with her during her adjustment period to go from living on her own for so many years, to assisted living, and when she had a fall and had to go to the hospital and came back, they were so good with her.. I was allowed to be with her as much as I needed to be until she got better And i'm so appreciative of that. They always checked on me as well as her to make sure if I needed anything.. Mom is 94 and is now doing well. The residents there are happy and talk all the time about how lucky they are to be in the best place in town. At least the ones I have talked to... With all the time I spent there in March I was able to connect with a lot of her neighbors and I really feel bad for the ones who have no one to come and visit, but I can say that the staff members always give them extra love and care. While I was there, I decided that if I ever had to go to assisted living i would hope it would be like this one. It was more like being in a hotel! Thank you to all of the management and staff for caring for our fragile elderly loved ones and treating them like your own.

The extra care and caution taken during the pandemic set them far apart from order like facilities. When the time comes for my loved ones, this is our only choice. The staff is absolutely the best!

I'll preface this review by noting we give Canterbury's care providers and reception staff 10…read moreStars. My mother-in-law resided at Canterbury for a little over a year. While she was there, she thoroughly enjoyed the other residence and the care providers. She was happy and content. Canterbury is a lovely facility and they offer many daily activities for the residents, which allows them to engage with each other on a regular basis. The negatives; The food in the dining room is heavy on carbohydrates and starches. We dined with mom several times and found the food passable but not enjoyable. Canterbury is ridiculously short staffed! Mom would call us in the wee hours of the morning requesting assistance to the restroom or other personal needs. We were nickeled and dimed for items we didn't need or request. Every service or item is changed as a line item on your monthly statement. We purchased personal care items yet would find their items in mom's room. Amended timeline - January 29, 2025 - 1st Covid outbreak February 14, 2025 - Norovirus quarantine September 28th, 2025 - Our mom tests positive for covid Quarantined September 28 - October 14, 2025 September 29 - falls while being assisted in the bathroom. Does not require hospitalization October 10 - falls while being assisted in the bathroom. Transported to Peace Health via ambulance. Diagnosed with an acute non-displaced fracture of L-2 October 14 - *3rd fall in restroom while being assisted by an aide. Transported to Peace Health via ambulance. She is diagnosed with closed fracture in her lumbar vertebrae and scalp laceration After 3 *supervised falls in short succession - we felt Canterbury was no longer a safe environment as she was a known fall risk. While the aids are kind and compassionate, we feel that additional training is imperative to prevent others from going through what our beloved parent experienced. Sadly mom is no longer with us and we feel the falls drastically contributed to her demise.

I don't know how someone can write a review like the other one left for this facility when they…read moredon't stay there or have family there. My experience was that the building is nice but they are understaffed and often give minimal care. My relative went several weeks without being bathed. The food was poor and the facility could not get a handle on Covid19 control, constantly on lockdown. Many of the issues are probably occurring at many facilities but this is supposed to be one of the best and at a cost of over 6k per month. I would not want to be there without a strong patient advocate. The other review says it is like family.....wouldn't want to meet their family.

My Father-In-Law has lived at the Colonial Residence for 5 years now. It is located in Stillwaters…read moreEstates where he lived for many years before having to move into assisted living. This was great, many of his former neighbors already lived there, so he already had friends. He was very reluctant to move, but now enjoys living there. This is a very clean, well staffed assisted living facility. We go every week to do his laundry and take him to lunch, so I have gotten to know many of the residents and staff there. There is a wonderful library for the residents, and even has a weekly lending partnership with the Timberland Regional Library System. The dining room is always set up like fine dining, attention to resident individual requirements are done well. My father-in-law for a while was on an almost pureed diet, they managed to make it more than tolerable for him. There are movies, trips, and entertainment brought in constantly. A few times my Father-In-Law has had medical emergencies, the staff is very calm and professional. He once had something that made him bleed allot, blood got everywhere. The staff made sure before the ambulance arrived to pack I a clean set of clothes, contacted us and let us know the ETA of him arriving at the hospital (which is about 3 blocks away). When we brought him home, they had cleaned the entire apartment, and not a trace of blood remained. The RN on duty came to great us at the door, double checked discharge orders and took good care of him. There is also an entertainment ares that has a pool table, juke box, and other fun things. Family and friends can join family for dining and Thanksgiving and Christmas you can enjoy you holiday meal in their dining room. Food was really good and NO CLEAN UP for us..... This place is open to those who do not live in Stilwaters Estates, it is the nicest facility, and for what you get a great bargain. (Assisted living is always expensive). I would live there if I had too. The ONLY negative is the television, there is a weird version of satellite that doesn't allow any options to get more channels which we find annoying. These folds spend allot of time in their apartments, for goodness sakes, let them pay for more if they want.
