    Mostly positive but concerning inconsistencies

    I moved my parent here and overall it's been a mixed but mostly positive experience: the building is beautiful and homey, activities are plentiful, meals are often good, and many staff (Vinny and others) are genuinely caring and helped make the transition smooth. That said, I saw troubling inconsistencies - some areas were spotless while others showed neglect (black mold under tile, bugs/dirty linens reported), meal quality and service can vary, and there have been medication/communication errors. Staffing and management feel stretched at times (limited front-desk coverage, missed transports, pressure on billing/Medicaid), and you should ask about infection history and current safety protocols. If you value warm staff and active programming it's worth touring, but get written assurances on cleanliness, meds, and pricing before committing.

    About The Grande

    The Grande is a senior living community that offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care. Staff members help residents with bathing, dressing, medication, and other daily needs, and they're available 24 hours a day with a call button in each apartment. The care team, managed by a licensed nurse, creates personalized care plans, works with outside care providers, and supports people with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia by keeping their environment safe and comforting. Residents can pick from studio or one-bedroom apartments-some have private courtyards, hardwood floors, kitchens or kitchenettes, wall-to-wall carpet, private baths, mirrored closet doors, and climate control. Meals are served daily in a dining room with big windows looking out on the landscaping, and chefs focus on using good quality ingredients for taste and nutrition, making sure snacks and hydration are always available. The Grande has common areas with leather furniture and wood floors, relaxing garden and spa spaces, and outdoor patios with fountains, comfortable seating, soft lights, and ceiling fans, good if you want to sit outside and visit. Folks can play billiards, piano, or use the popcorn machine, and the rooms for games and hobbies stay in use because there's always something going on, like movie nights, resident-run events, live music, and outings. You'll also find a fitness room, library, walking paths, garden, and a wellness room. The Grande is pet-friendly and includes utilities, basic cable, weekly housekeeping and linen service, maintenance, and shuttle transportation. There are safety and fire systems throughout and staff keep watch around the clock. The lobby and other indoor spaces have comfortable seating and the decorations are tasteful, without being too showy. Apartments are built to be handicap accessible and offer Wi-Fi. Residents in independent living pay an inclusive rate, and assisted living is rent plus care. There are events for guests, too, since The Grande serves as a venue for weddings, corporate gatherings, and social functions, with a ballroom and elegant settings that families sometimes use if they've got large celebrations. The Grande is part of Holiday Retirement, a company that's been running senior communities since 1971. The community hosts everything from festivals and antique car shows to regular music events, supporting mental, social, and physical engagement every day. Residents can take part in sport and wellness programs, use on-site salon services, and join outings organized for them. Parking, building features, and full exterior details aren't always easy to pin down, but strong focus stays on giving residents what they need in a calm, comfortable, and supportive environment, letting people stay as independent as possible, with help when it's needed. Pets are welcome, and staff encourage a friendly, joyful atmosphere, focusing on dignity, safety, and sincere care for each resident.
