CriticalI am/was a resident of this facility
I have lived at StoryPoint Kettlestone for over a year. We were just bought by this company. We used to be Edencrest at Kettlestone. Everything has gone downhill. The food is horrible. We used to have a menu we could order from if we wanted something else besides what the regular menu was. Now you get a choice of three which are not good. So if you don’t want any of those you have nothing. Because they are not aloud to make you breakfast because it’s not breakfast time. Another thing maintenance Travis he talks to …
★★★★★
PositivePleasant place
The staff are nice, from what I can tell. I know there's been a few things she's not happy with, like when they randomly started waking her up at 5:00am to use the bathroom and there was no reason for it. Sometimes the food is just "okay." I know some of her clothes go missing when they do her laundry, so she sends some with me sometimes.
★★★★★
PositiveOur family's experience
Seem to be short staffed frequently. The staff there are friendly and helpful. The apartment is modern, clean, and spacious. Our family's experience with getting our loved one has been positive overall. Calls and texts prior to move in were answered or replied to quickly. They made it a smoothe process. We did not expect our loved one to get acclimated and meeting other residents so quickly as she was resistant to moving to assisted living. In 6 wks the adjustment was a dramatic turn around!
★★★★★
PositiveAccommodating staff
Very accommodating with care requests. Change in schedules and very friendly staff and always asking how my sister is doing. She has had alot of health issues and changes in her meds and hospital stays. Hopefully that will change soon. At the end of her radiation treatments and so on.
★★★★★
PositiveHighly recommended
My time here has been great! The staff is very caring, helpful, polite, and professional. The residents are happy and welcoming. There are lots of activities to participate in. The apartments are very nice and quiet. The food is varied and delicious! The facilities are beautiful! I made a good decision moving here.
★★★★★
PositiveOverall great place
Apartments spacious, beautiful and large. Lots of natural light. Facilities are great. There's been decent staff turnover which is less than ideal. Staff overall seems happy to be there. Lots of great activities.
