    Spacious, comfortable facility with kitchen

    I left with a very positive impression - the food was good, staff were friendly, and the facility feels spacious with plenty of open areas. My room can be painted and even has its own kitchen, so it felt comfortable and customizable.

    Summary of reviews

    Cambridge Court elicits mixed impressions. Several reviewers praised the physical aspects of the site — private apartments with kitchenettes, generous open common areas, and the availability of a TV/recreation room — and described direct-care staff such as CNAs as helpful and friendly. Many families and residents found the dining acceptable or enjoyable, and the ability to personalize living spaces was noted positively.

    However, operational weaknesses were repeatedly raised. Staffing levels and coverage were described as inadequate, specifically citing limited or absent evening attendants, which reviewers linked to delays in responsiveness. Reviewers also described gaps in staff training and clinical competency that could undermine consistent care delivery despite generally positive impressions of front-line aides.

    Housekeeping and maintenance emerged as persistent concerns. Accounts mention unvacuumed halls, carpets that are not regularly deep-cleaned, dirty tables in common areas, and out-of-order bathroom facilities. Recreational and in-room equipment — for example, a nonworking TV in the TV room — were noted as needing repair. Combined, these items point to inconsistent facility upkeep and delayed repair processes.

    The facility layout and program design received mixed feedback: while the facility is spacious, the floor plan was described as inefficient or poorly set up for day-to-day operations. Activities appear limited beyond passive recreation; although there are open spaces and a TV room, broken equipment and sparse activity detail suggest programmatic gaps.

    Management and leadership were an area of ongoing dissatisfaction. Reviewers described concerns about transparency, communication, and administrative responsiveness; specific references to leadership behavior and operational management contributed to an overall perception of weak oversight. In addition, some accounts referenced more serious allegations, including regulatory or legal action; those specific claims would merit independent verification through regulatory records for anyone considering placement.

    In summary, Cambridge Court has attributes that appeal to prospective residents — private apartments, space, and attentive CNAs — but consistent themes of understaffing, variable training, housekeeping and maintenance shortfalls, and management deficiencies create notable risks. Families should verify current staffing patterns, maintenance and housekeeping protocols, the facility’s smoking policy, and any regulatory history before making a placement decision.

    About Cambridge Court

    Cambridge Court, once called Cambridge of Great Falls, used to sit at 1109 6th Avenue North in a quiet older neighborhood in Great Falls, Montana, but it's been closed since 2019 and the 5-story building has been sitting vacant and boarded up since then, which some may remember as an assisted living and memory care community for seniors. The building was first built in 1929 and sits on about 1.26 acres, with plans floated at one time to renovate it into a 50-apartment complex for working families and low-income households, with most units being one- or two-bedrooms and rents expected to be below $1,000, but those plans later got rescinded. The property is still zoned for high-density multi-family use and work like new fire alarms, fire sprinklers, and updates to windows and utilities have been estimated or started, but the building remains empty. Back when it was open, Cambridge Court offered assisted living and Alzheimer's care, with staff on duty 24 hours, including nurses with decades of experience, helping seniors with daily needs, medications, diabetes management, and moving between beds and wheelchairs, and they allowed pets like dogs and cats, had memory care programs, and offered meals in a dining room with restaurant-style service. They ran activities-art classes, fitness, social events, and outings-with common areas for gathering, internet access, chapel services, a barber and beauty shop, and guest meals, plus transportation for shopping and appointments. The apartments ranged from studio to one-bedroom and private suites, with emergency call systems in each home and personal laundry. Short-term "Graceful Stays" respite care was an option, too, and the place used to help residents transition during closure, with support from Montana's Department of Public Health and Human Services. Monthly rates ranged from $1,750 to $2,970 and the staff worked with private pay and VA reimbursement. Cambridge Court ran for over 75 years, serving older adults with both assisted living and dementia care, but after voluntary closure by the owner and a 30-day notice to all residents, the building's sat vacant, waiting for a new purpose, and has been listed for sale.
