This review is based on visits and tours made there to check out what they are all about. Michelle is likely your first point of contact since she is, I believe, the Director of "Sales and Marketing" (?). Kara I believe works for her and fills in for Michelle when needed. Both are fabulous, but Michelle really knows her stuff and understands what needs to be done if you are thinking of being part of their community. The place itself is really nice and elegant, with lots of energy and positive activities. Beautiful walking area outside for memory care residents. Trails right outside to walk, are abundant and also very nice as you walk thru the park right there/golf course. Different sized Rooms make up assisted living (AL) --studio, 1 BR, 2 BR. Memory care (MC) only has 2 sizes of studios--385 and 520 sq feet. The views you have contribute to the price as well. They also have Assisted Living with their Essentials support, provides a bridge between AL and MC. Food is pretty nice. Heritage week was being offered where unique foods from other areas around the world were being featured. Service was pretty great. Kind, compassionate when talking to residents. Beautiful set-up with dishes being offered on display as you walk in. Love the front desk team. All super nice and energetic. Very knowledgable and helpful. A nice sized theater for movies. Arts and crafts room. Library space. Outside deck/seats and tables with a very calming and beautiful view. Exercise class in the morning and other activities throughout the day. Live music/happy hour. Super fun all around. If you are looking for a super nice place where your loved one will be well taken care of, and feel safe and happy, this is your place.

When my aunt suddenly needed to move into assisted living, our family visited six different…read morefacilities trying to find the right fit. From the moment we walked into Cherry Hills Assisted Living and Memory Care (CHAL), we knew it was special. The atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, and the staff truly seemed to care about the residents. My aunt moved in about a year ago, and it was a huge adjustment - she had been living independently and had no plans to move. The team at CHAL went above and beyond to help her settle in and feel comfortable in her new home. They were patient, kind, and always took the time to make sure she was doing okay. Now, a year later, she's happy and thriving. She enjoys the staff and the beautiful facility. It's such a relief knowing she's well cared for and surrounded by people who genuinely care about her. We're so grateful to everyone at CHAL for making what started as a stressful transition into such a positive experience. I can't recommend them enough!

Upon breaking her hip, we realized that home was no longer the safest place so we looked around at quite a few independent/assisted living places. Once I walked in Carillon, I KNEW this was the place. It looks like the Four Seasons! You don't feel like you are in any kind of home for older people and it honestly has such a wonderful, welcoming charm. Owners are from here and plan on staying here and will respond at ANY time and are remarkable and their staff is so amazing.

Everyone commented on how fantastic the food was - even better than most of the highly rated restaurants close by for a fraction of the price. I would not hesitate to to move my own parents here. In fact, they raved about how great this place is and commented on how fantastic my MIL looks. They loved seeing her have a sense of humor that they have never witnessed before. This is place is simply the start of a new chapter in someone's life. I am so grateful!

But the Libby Bortz Center is very good in their care. I felt guilty during at that time, but I just sold my home in Five Points and moved south to Littleton so my mom would more be more safe and I know friends that can take care of her while I'm at work. But the center is excellent in its care and also designed for people with low to moderate incomes and your timing has to spot on to get a temporary room. You will see an older TV in the room on my photo - it did have a remote control with it.

He says this is his home now and he will never leave until the end. This is a beautiful clean facility that does not smell like many other senior homes. A month after moving into his room he had to have Open Heart Surgery. His motivation was the loved he had already received in his "new family at Libby Bortz". The love and amazing care given made him recover faster to get home. The staff sent him cards and called to see how he was doing. I could have never imagined a place to take such good care of my dad. Every Friday they come in and clean his room and take his laundry to be cleaned. They strip the bed and put clean sheets on the bed. When I say they clean, they really clean thoroughly. The pictures, blinds everything is spotless. Then the clothes are returned and folded very nicely. In the dining room they are given assigned seating which my dad loves as it feels like a family. The food is always delicious and the wait staff treats him very special. They make sure all are accounted for at meals which means a lot to our family. He is given a snack at bedtime so it is just more love given to check that he is doing fine. They have activities daily which he likes to attend including exercise class. They do it all from haircuts to a foot clinic and a in home doctors group comes in every few weeks. Libby Bortz is a shining example of what senior care should look like. Infact, they should be the model for our country. It shows how good management and a good price point can bring together people to love our seniors as they age. Aging with dignity and love is this wonderful facility.

They are consistently understaffed and the half of the staff that is working is not competent enough to handle the care my grandparents needs! Simple things like daily hygiene, making sure they have enough water, and proper assistance with bathroom needs are not being met. Their nurses and PT staff seemingly do the bare minimum. If there is any issue, they simply want to send your loved one to the hospital and not deal with care in house. My family cannot consistently check in on them daily, and we are often worried if basic care is being performed when we cannot visit. Do NOT consider this facility if you have family members who are not still fully independent. After all of our issues, it is clear this place is run like a business, not like a place where your family members can be cared for.

At first I would have given this place 4 stars because, basically, all retirement homes have this…read moreaspect to them, that it's where (to quote the sign on Homer's dad's home in The Simpsons) "the old and infirm bide their time awaiting the inevitable". It's not really the place you _want_ to be. So let me explain why I give it 5 stars. First off, my Dad is near the end of his life and has been living for 3 years in the memory loss ward where the door is locked with a key access. It sounds grim and boring doesn't it? But I spend a lot of time in here, and I like it here! It has toys and fun things on the floor for kids to play with and check out. It has lovely and fun staff. It has volunteers coming by playing violin and piano and guitar. Today they had the football game and then the basketball game on and it was a blast! Sure, there's something a bit surreal about all this sort of stuff -- it's a completely modern invention -- we dump our kids into schools for ten years, and then dump our aged into homes for ten years. But my 5 year old likes coming here, and that's saying a lot! They have free popcorn and coffee and a lobby dog. The food is good (today I had pork cutlet with potatoes and kale; yesterday I had lobster linguini with asparagus). The staff is great. The front desk and lobby are cozy and unpretentious. It's not expensive. With not being expensive, comes not being needlessly fancy -- it's kind of like grandma's house. For a while after a broken hip my Dad stayed at a place down the road, which is super fancy and like a ski lodge, where they had a therapy center. There was no fun in the place -- I think a lot of these places want you to think you aren't where you are. Also parking means a lot, and Sunrise at Orchard is small and parking close to the building is easy. Plus, it's right across the street from Panera so you can go grab food and right next to the library so you can go read a book. And if your parent has Alzheimers then you come back in an hour and they're so happy to see you again, it's always a brand new day!! Now my dad has a couple of days left. He moved back here from the hospital, into hospice care, back to his old room. They know him and love him. They come by the room to help him with things, and are always saying sweet things to him, "we love you Gunnar". And they bring me food and drink and don't care if I set up a mattress on the floor and spend the night. So I want to give them a big thumbs up. It's where my Mom wants to come when it's her turn to have somebody cook for her and just sit around doing crossword puzzles. Oh, and they have a GREAT large garden in the back, especially for the memory loss patients, so they can wander around, have a smoke or whatever. And there are 4 exits, all key-access, so you can come in and out in a few different ways (good 'feng shui'). For the 'younger' patients, they go on all kinds of outings, movies, restaurants. Good luck finding a place for yourself or for your parents!

A few days later I saw their several 1 star reviews here on Yelp all disappear and only 2 reviews remained. One 1 star and one 5 star. The 1 stars consistently had a theme of being overcharged or charged for things that never performed. So when setting up the paperwork for their services I made sure it was not on auto payment. To dis-incentivize from paying by check they required some crazy amount upfront as a deposit. Check was the preferred payment but they have a $150 service fee to even start service. They insisted it be paid before anything started, like they didn't trust me to pay it, and offered check and credit cards as payment options. I offered to meet her with the check the morning of the first day of service, but she couldn't meet so i offered to pay by credit card, but to please send me an invoice or request for payment for the $150 (assumably with info of how to provide the credit card payment). After thinking about it more, paying by credit card seemed safer since I saw there were so many issues with others paying for services not executed, but she refused to send an "invoice" and after which she said what was requested is not in their scope. I asked specifically what was not in scope but several months later and still no response. Each Visiting Angels is a franchise so you will get totally different teams with each location. I remember years ago they were so messed up they didn't even return calls for a long time, and when they did they were still super disorganized. I hope if in my lifetime I get a visiting angel some day, that it isn't a revenue driven one, which is the opposite of what an angel is all about. Some may have great experiences with them, but just the upfront process of them being super nice sales people quickly turned into craziness on a dime. Perhaps I dodged a bullet and just saved myself a huge nightmare of a future situation. So perhaps I should feel very lucky. I honestly, with two different bad situations, think this organization is off my list for any considerations ever, and recommend you dig further to ensure they are a "match" for what you are looking for. At $60/an hour for custom care (-at a facility) vs your home) and $47/hr for in home companionship, they seem a bit pricey to me since none are skilled and am sure many are not US Citizens. Wonder if my review will disappear too?

I had a client there several years ago, and I have never been so disgusted by what I saw, experienced, or felt. Maybe things are different now, but back then, it was really bad. What I saw: the residents at that time, were not supervised by staff when I was there, and were literally banging their walkers into each other. As they got more and more agitated, I chose to step in since no one else was around to. The residents were up wandering around at all hours of the night, and seemed to be free to go in each other's rooms; I, myself, witnessed other Brookdale inhabitants in my client's room. Some of her personal items turned up missing, and management couldn't account for either the missing items or intrusions; despite repeated requests, they did nothing about either. What I experienced: 99% of the time when I arrived, the residents were pounding on the locked door and shouting "get me out;" when I opened the door, they would rush me and try to leave. I I would do my best to stop them, but couldn't alone control disorderly dementia invalids who nearly bowled me over as I tried to get to my client. Once again, there was no staff in sight. What I felt: my stomach was in knots and I was constantly worried about my client...about her safety, health and welfare. We chose to move her to a different facility where she thrived. Interestingly enough, a staff member from Brookdale predicted that my client would get "kicked out" of any establishment for her behaviors. Instead, she did better than ever. It goes to show that positive attitudes, patience, understanding and staff members who are there can change anything
