I lived at Alta Ridge [dates removed]

During my stay the food was prepared by chef, and it was excellent. We had some fun activities. The Olympics was my favorite. I really enjoyed playing cards with the activities director and my friends. The activities were more simple, as many of the residents have difficulty using their hands. I prefer more advanced crafts (I was not satisfied with the activities, because of that) I made many good friends at Alta Ridge.

Transitions are hard

When we initially toured the facility, everything seemed great. But by the time we were moving in a week later, we could see that there were some noticeable problems—like a broken AC system throughout the facility. In a few days it was fixed, but other changes became clear—most notably, the food. All of these differences were tied to new ownership. The nice food and full dining room we saw initially was replaced by very bland food. And the list of 8 or so options (for the times the resident didn’t want the main mea…

I visited this facility

Alta Ridge Memory Care was livable. The room was very clean and nice. It seemed like a hotel setting to me. Other than that, it was OK. The staff was great. We had a good tour experience. They were welcoming and very helpful. If you asked a question, they answered it. Anything that you needed, they helped you with. We liked that they had a barber in there, an outdoor spot for them, and we liked that they took them out for outings. They just needed more seating areas in the outdoor area and probably more fixed seati…

I visited this facility

I toured Alta Ridge Memory Care and it wasn't a good experience. As far as the outer appearance, it was not friendly. It needed some repair. There are things in the back of the building, like beds that they're getting ready to do away and the parking wasn't good. When I pulled in, it wasn't that welcoming but the staff was nice. The physical appearance seemed a little gloomy. It smelled like urine throughout the whole area. There could have been some other nice stuff, but that blew me off.

Our Experience

We chose this facility because it was the best we could find in our price range. The food could've been better. The first activities Director left about halfway through my mom's stay and there were a few months with no activities. However, the new activities Director was great when she got on board. At the end of my mom's stay, the facility changed ownership, so it may be different now. The facility was very receptive to my suggestions and extremely sweet at the end when my mom was on hospice.

Review for Alta Ridge Memory Care

They offer shared rooms, which can cut the cost down considerably. They are very responsive, with concerns or issues.
