    Home-like community with exceptional care

    I chose this small, one-floor community on a friend's recommendation and it's the best we've found. The staff - especially Rui - are friendly, knowledgeable and caring; onboarding was comfortable and the care, including hospice integration, is excellent. Mom is happy here: home-like campus, chef-led creative meals with fresh produce and a country-club dining vibe, lots of activities (puzzles, music, painting, trips, mini-concerts). It's clean, intimate (~60 residents), first-class accommodations with a family atmosphere - I highly recommend it (note: assisted felt a slight step down from her previous place).

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the reviews is strongly positive. Reviewers consistently praise the staff—describing them as caring, friendly, knowledgeable and communicative—and highlight smooth, supportive onboarding experiences. Multiple comments single out individual staff service (notably 'excellent service by Rui') and emphasize that families feel well informed and confident in the care provided. The integration of hospice services is mentioned positively, indicating the community can manage a range of care needs with compassion.

    Care quality and accommodations receive frequent positive notes. Reviewers call the care 'excellent' or 'first-class,' and several say their family members are happy and satisfied. The facility is described as clean and home-like, with a family atmosphere and comfortable accommodations. The building layout and campus are also appreciated: many reviewers mention a beautiful campus, a single-floor building that is easy to navigate, and a unique, decentralized design of community areas that contributes to a homey feel rather than an institutional one. The community size—around 60 residents—is repeatedly noted; it appears to be valued for intimacy and a small-community vibe.

    Dining and food quality are recurring strengths. Many reviewers describe chef-led dining with fresh produce and creative menus; the dining room is characterized as having a country-club vibe and an 'exquisite' experience by some. While one summary used the word 'adequate,' the dominant impression is that meals are thoughtful, varied, and a highlight for residents who enjoy the culinary program.

    Activities and lifestyle offerings are another strong theme. Reviews list a wide variety of activities—puzzles, music, painting, trips, mini-concerts—and describe them as engaging and plentiful. Commenters appreciate the focus on healthy living and the frequency and creativity of programming. The small, active community seems to foster participation and social connection.

    Noted weaknesses are limited and specific. One reviewer felt the assisted living felt like a step down from a resident’s prior experience, suggesting that expectations or prior comparisons could influence perceptions of the assisted level. The absence of a pool was mentioned explicitly as a negative. Another practical consideration raised was that independent living is physically detached from assisted living, which some may interpret as less integrated continuity between levels of care.

    In summary, Feridean Commons is described across these reviews as a small, well-kept, and warmly staffed community with strong dining, varied activities, good communication with families, and a comfortable, home-like campus. The main caveats mentioned are the lack of a pool, some perceptions that assisted living may not match prior experiences for certain residents, and the physical separation of independent living units from assisted living. Overall, reviewers overwhelmingly recommend the community and report high satisfaction for residents who value attentive staff, quality dining, active programming, and a smaller, intimate setting.

    About Feridean Commons

    Feridean Commons serves adults aged 55 and older in a quiet community, where seniors can choose between independent living villas or assisted living apartments, and there's a variety of floor plans like studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts. Residents can enjoy meals in a restaurant-style dining room that tries to feel like a country club, and the kitchenettes in the units let people fix their own snacks, and utilities, internet, and TV are already included, which makes things easy. The place offers private bathrooms, cable TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and private retreats for those who like their own space, and in the shared areas, you'll find fireplaces, bar/pub, and a jazz or organ area for music lovers, plus a chapel, libraries, and meeting rooms for group gatherings or quiet moments. There's a greenhouse for gardening, a movie theater for watching films, and a fishing pond outside as well as gardens, walking paths, and patios, while inside, folks have access to an exercise room program run by Mt. Carmel, a fitness center, and a workshop for hands-on hobbies or tinkering. The staff is available at all hours, with licensed registered nurses and a doctor on call, and there's always someone awake to help in emergencies, so people feel safe, especially since there's a 24-hour emergency call system and personal health buttons for urgent help. Feridean Commons backs up seniors who need help with everyday activities like bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication management, and they do daily wellness checks and help with special needs, including diabetes support-though they can monitor blood sugar, they can't give insulin shots-plus they've got staff to help non-ambulatory residents with transfers and make sure the building is wheelchair accessible. There are visiting healthcare providers for things like podiatry, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, and hospice care is available. Folks who want to stay social can join activities like exercise programs, card games, bingo, knitting group, Bible study, and lunch outings or attend religious and devotional services both onsite and offsite, including Catholic and Protestant services, and there are always events in the activity room or garden. You'll find leisure spaces like a beauty salon, barber shop, arts room, and a game room, plus programs and outings that help people keep busy and connected, and there are active social and wellness calendars. The campus is designed for all sorts of people and does its best not to discriminate based on race, religion, age, gender, disability, orientation, or national origin, and they make it easy for family members to keep in touch and stay informed. People can use scheduled transportation for shopping, appointments, and trips, and there's parking for residents and guest meals for visitors, along with housekeeping, laundry, and move-in coordination to ease the adjustment. Meals can fit special diets, including vegan, low or no sodium, and allergy-sensitive foods. The community charges an initial move-in fee and an optional second-person fee, and keeps its environment tidy, well-staffed, and well-organized, with extra touches like raised gardening beds and full kitchens in some units. There's also support for insurance education, caregiver help, nutrition, and in-home care as needed, with connections to community programs and an Enrichment Center. Feridean Commons maintains a verified 8.9 score from its proprietary rating system, with a range of lifestyle options for independent and assisted living, aiming to give seniors peace of mind, comfort, a bit of fun, and enough choices to make daily life feel like home.
