    Beautiful facility but serious concerns

    I love the gorgeous, brand-new facility - beautiful grounds and garden, comfortable self-furnished rooms, accessible layout, and many genuinely friendly, attentive staff (Stephanie was amazing) who gave personalized attention. That said, I observed worrying issues: overworked/underpaid staff, burnout, poor management follow-through, unreliable nursing/ emergency responsiveness, reports of med errors and documentation problems, and some resident requests ignored. Costs are high with frequent extra charges and restrictive policies (can't just leave), which makes it unaffordable for some. See it for the environment and caring people, but confirm staffing, med-safety, and total costs before committing.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment in these reviews is mixed, with strong and repeated praise for the facility's physical attributes, certain staff members, and dining, counterbalanced by serious and recurring concerns about staffing levels, management practices, and safety. Many reviewers describe the building as gorgeous, new, clean and well laid out for accessibility. Outdoor areas and gardens, wide hallways, and wheelchair- and scooter-friendly dining spaces are frequently highlighted. Several reviews give high marks for cleanliness and an attractive, comfortable environment.

    Staffing impressions are polarized. Numerous reviews praise front-line employees as friendly, caring, and attentive; some residents feel welcomed and part of a family, and a handful of staff members (one named Stephaine/Stephanie) are singled out for exceptional care. Dining receives consistent positive comments for taste and the availability of restricted-salt options. Several reviews describe individualized attention from staff and management that creates a personalized care experience for some residents.

    However, an equally strong cluster of reviews raises serious operational and safety concerns. A number of reviewers report that staff are overworked, underpaid, and burned out, producing inconsistent care and lapses such as medication errors, alleged falsification of documentation, missed care, and ignored reports of neglect or abuse. Some reviewers explicitly state that emergency responsiveness failed in at least one instance and that requests or complaints are sometimes ignored. These issues point to systemic workforce strain and quality-control problems rather than isolated incidents.

    Management and communication receive mixed feedback. Several reviewers praise knowledgeable leadership and a positive team atmosphere, while others describe poor management practices, contradictory policies (for example an 'open door' policy that in practice does not resolve concerns), deceptive promises regarding services or pricing, and an inclination to increase charges or bill for many items. Difficulty reaching nursing staff from outside the facility and ignored meal-plan changes were also mentioned, indicating gaps in communication channels and administrative follow-through.

    Financial and logistical concerns appear repeatedly. Multiple reviews mention price increases and that there are charges for many services, which can create an affordability barrier for those without sufficient funds. Parking is repeatedly called a 'nightmare' for residents and visitors, suggesting site logistics and access may need improvement. Activity programming is described as limited by some reviewers, indicating that social engagement opportunities may not be as robust or consistently offered as families expect.

    Taken together, the pattern suggests that Quartet - A Senior Living Village provides an attractive physical environment with many staff who are warm and capable, and offers good dining and accessibility features. At the same time, there are significant, recurring concerns about staffing levels, staff experience, management responsiveness, safety (including medication and documentation issues), and billing transparency. The experience appears inconsistent: some residents and families report excellent care and strongly recommend the community, while others report troubling lapses that would warrant caution.

    For prospective residents and families considering this community, the reviews indicate it would be important to verify current staffing levels and turnover, ask about medicational safety protocols and incident reporting, clarify billing practices and any extra charges, tour during different times of day to observe staffing patterns, and request references from current families. These steps can help determine whether the aspects praised in many reviews (facility quality, caring staff, good dining) are consistently in place and whether the reported operational and safety issues have been addressed.

    About Quartet - A Senior Living Village

    Quartet - A Senior Living Village sits as a three-story community designed for seniors who want different levels of support, and the place is new, built with careful thought to comfort and beauty, with things like fire- and sound-resistant construction, smoke detectors in every room, and heating and cooling you can set yourself so folks can feel safe and settled. The building has independent living, tailored living, assisted living, and memory care all under one roof, which means people can find the help they need, from basic housekeeping to daily care and memory support, without having to leave the place they call home. The community holds state licenses S0465 and S0466, showing it follows the rules.

    Apartments come in many shapes and sizes-there are studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans named The Ashton, The Laurel, The Wesley, The Cascade, The Rowan, The Durango, The Sandborn, The Derby, The Cambridge, The Ellsworth, The Shelby, The Randall, The Andover, The Gilbert, and The Beacon (for memory care, at 328 square feet). They all have private bathrooms with walk-in showers, and the apartments come unfurnished, so folks bring their own furniture and decorations if they want. Some units have full kitchens with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, while others have kitchenettes and luxury vinyl plank flooring, and cable TV as well as Wi-Fi is available in both units and common areas. Pets are allowed, with extra pet amenities, and there are guest rooms for overnight visitors and parking for cars and guests as well.

    Quartet has a wide range of things to do every week, with arts and crafts, exercise classes, music, movies, gardening, walking clubs, games like bingo and cards, literary and educational activities, outings in the community, and presentations. There's a structured routine in memory care for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia-here they get help through the Navigate Memory Care program and AwakeningsTM, both offering specialized therapy, 24/7 support, and extra safety features to prevent wandering and confusion, always personalizing the approach to each resident. Housekeeping, laundry, linen service, and home maintenance are handled as part of the package, and folks can pick private housekeeping if they want extra help.

    Meals are served three times a day in the Fresco Dining Room with chef-prepared options, or you can have food delivered to your own place if you don't want to eat with the whole group, plus room for guests if you have family stopping by. There are also social spots like the Sonata Lounge, a coffee shop, party rooms, the Aria Salon for haircuts and barber services, and lounges for gatherings; the therapy courtyard The Quad has walking paths and garden patios for relaxing or a walk with a neighbor. The building allows overnight guest stays, and has short-term respite housing for a few days at a time that works the same as assisted living.

    There's staff to help with daily things like bathing, dressing, taking medicine, and there's always someone on call-with part-time nurses, support for folks who need reminders for medicine, regular safety checks, pharmacy on-site, and health services available. Quartet offers transportation for shopping, outings, and appointments when families can't drive their loved ones themselves. Emergency help is available round-the-clock. Fire-resistant features and an emergency response system add to the sense of security.

    Pets are welcome, with support for animals in the building. Fees start with a $2,000 entry fee, and a second person in an apartment brings costs in the $670-$1,550 range. The place is managed by Ecumen, serving a wide set of needs for older adults with helpful programs and community engagement opportunities, such as Quartet Connect, special events, and feedback programs encouraging families and residents to share input.

    Quartet - A Senior Living Village stands as a pet-friendly, accessible, and flexible option for seniors wanting independence with support close at hand, whether folks need just a little help around the house or full memory care, all in a setting that tries to feel like home while offering plenty to do, friendships to make, and a sense of community life. Tours are available, and the Be Our Guest program allows people to stay a few days to see if the community fits their needs.
