I really wanted LP to be better than this rating. - Is it…read moreclean? Seemingly yes in the public areas. - Are there basic systems to make sure your loved one in Independent Living (IP) isn't found dead days later. Yes. - Other than that, it is so very challenging to provide a review of all the issues related to: -- lack of follow-through by IP staff with family caregivers, -- lack of the same by the medical department, and even more so when (gosh forbid) your elder has to go to Rose Court because RC and Medical don't seemingly share data on your loved one. (BTW, the emergency care team at RC is great in and of itself.) Keep your loved one away from the live-in side of RC except for those in deep need of 24X7X365 help. It's a lock-down unit. --lack of staff owning up to/ responsibility not doing their jobs Are the grounds lovely, yes. Is the food really a 1/2 step down from anywhere you don't want to eat again, yes. The local HS kids try to provide good service but fall short. I will admit it can't be easy on the dining room managers to manage the quality of food delivered, food prep itself and training kids in hospitality to serve seniors. And all this for a $250K* buy in (1bdrm) plus ~$2K a month rent with one meal included. Lots of activities are available but I can't speak to the quality. 90% returned to estate when resident dies. *Price from about 5 years ago so this has probably increased. I'm just so frustrated. It's too late for my person to leave because it would be too much disruption. I will keep on advocating and try not to lose my mind. For whomever reads this review, survey all the options and if LP keeps rising to the top then know you will need to be your person's absolute advocate at every turn, with every interaction. Get yourself a notebook and keep it with you to track every interaction.

My mother liked living at Linden Ponds, but we (her adult children) all think the place is a huge…read morerip off. Their commercials are very misleading. Linden Ponds is "independent senior living." You put up a huge sum of money to move in, and then pay an outrageous monthly fee that amounts to a condo fee, with a meal plan thrown in. The food is mediocre at best. How they can possibly justify their $4,000+ a month fee (when you've already given them hundreds of thousands to pay for your apartment) is a mystery. They put my mother, who has dementia, in an ambulance one day and NO ONE CALLED ME. My mother was on a gurney in the hospital, alone, for 12 hours before a nice nurse took pity on my Mom and helped her to call me. I would have rained hellfire down on them for this, but my mother was still living there and I didn't want them to take my fury out on my Mom. Mom is at a new place now where for NO deposit and a bit more each month she gets three meals a day, laundry, and housekeeping done for her. Linden Ponds charges extra for EVERYTHING. It was a very happy day for me when we drove out of their, never to return.

Having a loved one transferred from the hospital to this facility was stressful for our family but the moment we entered the door we were greeted with warmth and kindness. The staff in the memory care floor has been kind, patient and loving to our family and our mom.

I had…read moremy left knee replaced and I needed to go somewhere where I could get therapy and they would make me work hard. I wanted to get strong, learn to walk and go home and that is exactly what I got. We accomplished that. I appreciated that they did my laundry and they did it well. The facility was clean, it smelled good, and all the staff were nice and kind. At first I hurt so much and couldn't move, but the staff were gentle and understanding. Now I can move around and do everything I need to do to go home and take care of myself. I can even walk with a cane. I am having my other knee replaced in April so I hope you will save a bed for me!

I had a terrible experience with the Dwyer Home which is owned by the same company. They…read more treated my family and my father, a veteran, disrespectfully, dishonestly and unprofessionally. After several months on their waiting list, my father's financials and medical records were reviewed to ensure that they could care for him this review included the doctor we requested he be assigned to . The Admissions Director informed us they had a room for him and arranged his transfer. On that day my father was loaded onto transport and my brother went to the Dwyer Home ahead of Him. When he arrived the head nurse said that they wouldn't accept my dad because of new information she had received, supposedly that day. She said my dad's records showed he was a wanderer and sexually aggressive. Everything she said was a lie. The case worker didn't send any new records that week, my dad is not a wander. He is not even ambulatory. He can't get in and out of a wheel chair. He is not on a locked ward and he isn't capable of remembering or entering a code in a key pad to open an exit door. Additionally my dad has never been aggressive. He's had the same health care assistant bathing him for 20 years and she adores him. So did his caregivers in assisted living and in his current nursing home. The nurse at Dwyer Home didn't call us to tell us they wouldn't accept him. When my brother went out to get his paper work. The nurse locked him out. No one from the Dwyer Home ever returned our calls or emails to apologize or explain. I jad explained to the Admissions Director, who told us she had a bed for him, that I was very worried about the care he was currently receiving. He had gone from walking on his own toBnot being able to adjust himself in bed in just a get months. Additionally, they had him so medicated he was sleeping all the time. She assured me that they could treat my dad's sun downers without over medicating him. My father served his country his entire life. He retired as a a lieutenant colonel after 20 years in the US Airforce. He worked at NASA, FAA, DOT & MITRE. He was one of the 1st US military personnel stationed in England to install intercontinental balistic missiles at Dwight D Eisenhower's direction during the cold war. He worked on the guided missile system that support the us moon landing He lead the FAA project to develop radar to direct aircraft while taxiing. He lead the JTIDs program that provides a 360 degree view for us fighter pilots. He retired from the military, civil service and private corporation saving his money to live comfortably during retirement.
