Community Reviews
My loved one loves the staff !!
reviewed on: 10/01/2016 by AnonymousMy loved one is really pleased with all of the staff, they have been wonderful to her. The chef is very accommodating to my mothers wants for meals and is constantly making sure she is pleased with her dinning experience. I have no complaints about this community and would definitely recommend this place.
Care Free Lifestyle
reviewed on: 07/28/2015 by Fountains ResidentI love living here at the Fountains because it's has freed me up to really enjoy these older years without being burdened with all the chores of ordinary life. With those taken care of I now have the time, but also the energy for more activities and for exploring new opportunities for learning and growth. I have always believed that older people should live together in communities to avoid loneliness and inspire them to pursue new interests to keep healthy and active. And that has proved to be very true for me here. The Fountains has an outstanding staff who keep us busy with all kinds of events, entertainment and challenges and see that we are always well cared for. You'll find we also have a congenial group of residents who are friendly and welcoming. Altogether it's a carefree and Independent lifestyle which can't be beat! Resident
Not as happy as I could be
reviewed on: 04/02/2015 by MargaretThere are sooo many people here with too few employees to answer a call within a weeks time or to receive a meal while seated for 45 minutes. We need an added Activities helper. You can't get to an activity in time because there is not enough time allotted to get from the dinner to the activity because the dinning room is crowded and you have to wait so long to be served. Advertising is misleading as to services received. Bathroom is not connected to the bedroom in one bedroom apartments. Second seatings in dinning room have some things unavailable at second seating. I have diabetes and am not suppose to take my insulin there but I have to eat 15 minutes after the shot, this does not happen. I talked to John but he had excuses and said That was not in your advertisement. I guess a lot of things were omitted I should have read the small print (my bad) I thought the customer is always right. I guess I was wrong. I compared This Place to another Retirement Community in which I lived and there is much unfamiliar territory here. Many things included at the same price point at Garden Villas too many to list.
Response to Margaret's Review
reviewed on: 09/16/2015 by AnonymousI would like to comment on Margaret's review: My husband and I have been residents here for seven months. We have an entirely different attitude about The Fountains. From day one, we felt welcomed by the friendly staff and atmosphere, and we quickly adjusted to the new lifestyle. The activities and socialization keep us as busy as we care to be; the amount of time we spend in our independent living apartment is entirely up to us. We are left alone, yet have safety/security devices with which to summon immediate help if needed. The dining room presents multiple delicious choices for meals, and it still feels as if we're on vacation when we sit down to order. When nearly 100 people are being served at a seating, there are bound to be glitches. (Heavens, we had them at our house all the time!) Occasionally, there can be up to a 45 minute wait, but that is infrequent. Chatting with table mates while waiting makes the time go fast. I'm sorry if Margaret feels this place is not a good fit for her, but the majority of us are happy here and feel very much at home. I wouldn't wish to be anywhere else.
Joye's new home
reviewed on: 07/28/2015 by Joye's husbandMy wife, Joye, is one of the original residents of "The Fountains of West County" brand new Assisted Living community. From the first day of the move we have found their staff to be the most helpful, friendly, from the management and receptionist to the caring ample floor personnel to take care of the daily needs of my wife and the residents. Lots of fun activities offer opportunities to socialize. Joye has found the food to be very good, well prepared and with individual choices available at all three meals. As you can see, Joye is very happy in her new home at "The Fountains" and we, her family, are assured in the knowledge that we have found a nice and new home for her.
