    Small home-like facility, excellent care

    I placed my loved one here and I'm extremely satisfied. The small, home-like facility is clean, bright and comfortable with ramps and a walk-in tub, on-site kitchen, great home-cooked food and plenty of activities so they were never bored. The staff are responsive, respectful and genuinely caring - nursing, showers, laundry, haircuts and personalized care were excellent and our family was always included; it's Medicaid-friendly and great value. Only heads up: the map/directions can be misleading. Highly recommend.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the reviews is strongly positive: reviewers consistently describe Renaissance Senior Care as a small, homelike facility with attentive, compassionate staff and high levels of resident satisfaction. Multiple comments emphasize a family-like atmosphere where residents feel comfortable, respected, and not alone — including in end-of-life care. Many reviewers explicitly say they would highly recommend the facility, and several note that their loved ones adjusted well and experienced no aggressive behavior from other residents.

    Care quality and staffing emerge as the most praised elements. Reviews highlight that staff are caring, responsive, personable, and well trained; they form strong relationships with residents and often go "far beyond" basic duties to ensure happiness and comfort. The administrator is noted as respectful, and staff routinely include family members in care decisions. Nursing care and day-to-day care tasks (assistance with showers, laundry, and personal grooming such as haircuts) are specifically mentioned as reliable and well handled.

    The physical environment is frequently described as warm and comfortable. Reviewers mention a small, homelike scale, natural light, and a well-appointed interior. Accessibility features such as ramps and a walk-in tub are noted, and private rooms and compatible roommates contributed to residents feeling at ease. On-site services and conveniences (laundry, showers, haircuts) add to the sense of a full-service, comfortable setting despite the small size.

    Dining and food quality receive repeated positive remarks. The presence of an on-site kitchen and home-cooked meals is highlighted, with reviewers noting "wonderful smells" and explicitly calling the food "very good." Meals appear to be a meaningful contributor to resident satisfaction and the homelike feel of the facility.

    Activity programming is another consistent theme. Reviewers report morning exercises, games, and crafts, and several emphasize that residents are "not bored." The small community size seems to support personalized engagement and activities that match residents’ needs, contributing to confidence and trust in the staff and program.

    Cost and accessibility are also important positives: multiple reviews note that the facility is Medicaid-friendly and represents a lower-cost option, while still providing quality care and a clean environment. This combination of affordability and attentive care is repeatedly framed as excellent value by reviewers.

    The only clear operational concern mentioned across the summaries is a logistics issue: one review warns of a map or directions that lead to the wrong location, which could cause confusion for visitors or new admissions. No other recurring negatives about care, cleanliness, or staff responsiveness appear in the provided summaries.

    In summary, the reviews portray Renaissance Senior Care as a small, clean, and well-run facility where staff provide personalized, respectful, and loving attention. Strengths include strong staff–resident relationships, reliable nursing and personal care services, appealing home-cooked meals from an on-site kitchen, meaningful activities, accessible features, and affordability including Medicaid acceptance. The primary practical caveat to note is a reported mapping/directions error that prospective visitors should verify; otherwise, reviewers overwhelmingly report satisfaction and recommend the facility.

    About Renaissance Senior Care

    Renaissance Senior Care is a senior living option with three assisted living locations in Helena, Montana, at 525 Saddle Drive, 3680 Travertine Way, and 2530 Wildwood Lane, each with a dedicated administrator such as Candie Garsnett, Misty Kirsch, or Jessica Stamper-Tulo, so families get to know who's looking after their loved ones, and you can take a virtual tour before visiting in person, which is helpful especially if you live far away or just want to get a feel for the place first. The community is licensed under #13162 and offers care for up to 17 residents in each home, focusing on assisted living, memory care for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, and respite care when families just need a break or help for a short while. They've got secure outdoor areas with fenced gardens, patios, and walking paths, as well as wide, well-lit hallways and color-coordinated handrails for safer movement, plus shock-absorbent floors and easily accessible restrooms to help prevent falls, which means the buildings are set up to make it easier for folks who need a little more help getting around or may get confused at times.

    Renaissance Senior Care provides home-style kitchens where meals are cooked daily, and a dietitian helps plan menus so that residents with special diets can still enjoy food that smells and tastes good, and folks can either bring their own furnishings to make their room feel like home or use what's already there, with rooms coming in both private and semi-private setups. The care team is available 24 hours a day and helps with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, laundry, cleaning, medications, incontinence, and even diabetic care and high acuity needs, so families don't have to worry about someone being left alone if something comes up. The homes are pet-friendly, have call systems to get staff help quickly, and are set up with security, smoke, and fire alarms in every house to make sure everyone is safe, plus they offer laundry facilities for fresh clothes and bedding.

    Activities happen at least three times a week and can include games, simple sports, arts and crafts, music, exercise for strength or range of motion, and group discussions or outings that use community resources, and they encourage residents to stay involved with daily chores if they like, such as helping with cooking or folding laundry, which gives a sense of purpose. Language support is available in Spanish, which helps families who speak it feel more at home. They offer both adult day care and short-term stays for folks who need recovery or rehabilitation, with staff aiming to get to know each resident so care feels personal. Renaissance Senior Care falls under the umbrella of a continuing care retirement community, so seniors can often stay in familiar surroundings even as their needs change. The home office is in Idaho Falls, Idaho, and each of the Helena homes is tailored for older adults who need a little or a lot of help, always with the goal of lightening the family's load and focusing on loving care.
