Their kindness, patience, and dedication went far beyond their duties, bringing comfort, dignity, and warmth to her each day.

We will always be deeply thankful for the tenderness and respect they gave her in her final chapter. The McElroy Family

I recently used the Garden View facility in Valley Park and found their services exceptional. I…read morewould highly recommend them for short term and long-term care. The staff was all engaged with their patients and dedicated to ensuring they experienced a pleasant stay. My wife and I had dinner and just happened to stop by to see the facility after hours and as we entered the lobby, there were employees leaving after a long day. We told them we were there doing a drive by and Alisa (social worker) immediately took her coat back off and gave us an impromptu tour. There were so many that helped us that it's hard to begin naming all but the entire staff helped us making it a pleasant stay. I'd highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for care. Phil

Also, what do residents expect and what can they be active in, both physically and mentally? Has there been a professional attempt to answer these questions?

We were lucky enough to be able to wait for a patio apt to become available, which for our 'Oma/Mom' made all the difference for her as she was a big time nature lover. The gardening is gorgeous. The STAFF IS AMAZING from Lisa in the front office to CNAs to nurses and house cleaning. I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH NICE THINGS! They worked so hard to ensure that 'Mom' was not only well cared for, but loved!! And when the end came near, they so kindly worked with us during Mom's short time in hospice, we were able to keep her in her home until she passed. We will be FOREVER grateful to everyone at HP. We all actually MISS seeing everyone regularly, including other residents. They became friends. :-)

BUT, I can say as a current graduate student of occupational therapy (shameless plug, if you have no idea what that is, ask me!) who has spent a lot of time in various assisted living facilities, this place is GREAT! I got a chance to speak to some of the residents while assessing the facility & the community is beautiful! The facilities are in tip-top shape & the services provided are above average. The staff seem to be very friendly & in-tune with the residents. When I'm 85+ & still kickin', please send me here!

I would highly recommend staying far away from this facility. My 87-year old mother lived there for…read morethe past year, until July when she fell in her bathroom and broke her hip. She fell at 2am on a Sunday. The facility is supposed to check on their residents by 9 am. No one checked on my mother that day at all. Infuriating. I talk with mother usually every Sunday so when I didn't hear back from her by Monday morning, I called Crestview to do a wellness check. Tori said she went to check on mom and said that mom was just tired but okay. So it took me calling to get them to check on her. Turns out that later in the day, another gal named Lisa, found my mom at 3pm still lying on the bathroom floor, in pain. She called 911 and my mom was taken to the hospital - after lying on the floor for 37 hours. So much for good care. We found a new place for mom and when I went to clean our mom's apt at Crestview last week, the director Christina asked to speak to me. She denied that we had left her any voice messages and said she didn't receive any - from myself, my aunt and also mom's social worker. Christina insisted we give a written 30-day notice and that mom has to pay for September rent despite her move being involuntary, as she can no longer live independently. I asked Christina if there was any way we could reach an agreement since we are not a litigious family, but she was unwilling to budge at all. OH, P.S. The State of Missouri is now investigating them for the elder abuse.

Wonderful place! Bright and cheery. Very pleasant activities, including exercise class. My mom has…read morebeen here for three and a half years. Great staff and housekeepers and maintenance. We have used a few services that you pay for such as Senior Helpers when she had a wound that needed daily tending and that was very helpful and reassuring. Also the on-site salon for haircuts and pedicures is convenient. One huge downside to caution about is that meals are not served at all on Sunday nights. This has been burdensome for our family and other residents have grumbled about this repeatedly. They get used to not cooking and then there is no meal and families are not always able to help. So then it's cold leftovers or PBJ. But that is the only down side, other than that, it's a wonderful place and we would recommend it!

For the one week that she was there, multiple trips by family members were made daily to assist her, a minimum of 3 hours each day. Witnessed staff sitting in their cars in the parking lot apparently getting high for extended periods of time. No response from administration after multiple outreach attempts made when it was clear they could not provide the care that was needed. After hospital transfer, mom went to a facility that was a higher level of care. This Facility looks nice but that's it. Awful experience at a very vulnerable time!

On move in day (2/28/24) I was given an invoice that stated "Charges in Full" at the TOTAL DUE line…read more I wrote a check and they deposited it accepting as payment for 2 days in February and all of March. However, on my April Statement I saw a new charges for both Feb & March in the amount of $1,924.15. I then reached out to the admin staff inquiring as to what this was. I was informed that they increased her care level around 3/19/24 and I now owed this add'l amount even though not one person reached out to me. I have been disputing this ever since because when I pay a bill that says "charges in full" I believe that that means I have paid the bill to a zero balance. How can they justify increasing anything and back-dating it?? I have been paying the increased amount on April - July care months. Yet they continue to add late fees to this bogus add on bill. Now the newest thing is that they have neglected to reduce her med management fee on her monthly statement even thought she now qualifies for the 1-5 pill $300 charge not the 6-10 pill $400 charge. I have verified with the nurse practitioner that my mom now takes 5 daily meds not the 8 meds she was previously taking. This should've been adjusted on the June 2024 statement but it still hasn't been done and I just received the Aug 2024 statement. I have been deducting the $100 med management reduction from my payment(s) for both June and July....they have left those amounts on our account to accrue even more late fees. This is just scandalous. They are all about money and getting all they can from the families with loved ones living in their care. It's not enough that my mom has had multiple falls, gotten a boil on her upper thigh but when she was sent out to Mercy Hospital ER for aggression she arrived wearing multiple diapers so that they wouldn't have to change her as often. That is just inhumane and disgusting. I would not ever recommend this place to anyone. It looks fancy n pretty and they all seem nice.....don't be the fool I was.....they saw someone in a tight spot and they took advantage of my situation. Due to my mom's previous facility ceasing their Memory Care services I had 28 days from notification to move out deadline so I did not have the luxury of time on my hands. Unfortunately, I again find myself in the same situation just a mere 5 months later.

They were able to have a night care giver that same night. After that, our Mother had the same care giver every night, Monday through Friday. Different care givers came on the weekends. They were very dependable and punctual with their service. If there were any changes in the schedule the company communicated well with us. We would feel very comfortable recommending the services of this company to anyone who needs assistance.
