★★★★★
PositiveNorth Ridge
It is a very nice place. My mom has been treated very well and taken care of very well. They are very efficient. Yes, I would recommend it
★★★★★
PositiveLovely physical setting w/variety of rooms and gardens. [name removed] had a booklet available w/sample menus/activities. We toured the faculty, saw individual rooms, visited a current resident, observed a group activity. In addition to memory care residents, this facility has respite and companion rooms…nice variety of services to meet needs. The tour was very helpful and I’d rank this facility as a top choice compared to others in Albuquerque. In cost, cleanliness, customer service, and options.
★★★★★
PositiveI would recommend it
Value for the money 3-4 (I do have peace of mind having my mother there, which is worth a lot, but I find NR to be very expensive and worry a bit that her means to pay will run out before she's done needing care). All staff/resident interactions that I have witnessed have been respectful and not condescending or patronizing. It also doesn't smell bad.
★★★★★
PositiveA place of comfort
I am a hospice RN who attends this facility frequently. I cannot say enough good things about this place, or express my gratitude for the care that the residents I oversee receive. If you are looking for a place for your loved one to live, I cannot recommend this place enough.
★★★★★
PositiveGreat service and care for the patients
We first toured the facility 4 months ago. The facility was clean smelled nice and professional. We moved my father in shortly after and have not been disappointed. A total surprise is my dad is very happy here.
