he best place you can ever live.
The friendliness, helpfulness of staff, the community as a whole as made my mom much happier, and having PT/OT right there in the facility did wonders for my mothers rehabilitation after coming from the rehab hospital from when she broke her femur. I cannot express how grateful I am especially for [name removed] she has been a plethora of information and guidance for my mother and I. I would live there if I could! [name removed] she never gets the full accolades she deserves and she loves her job and the people that live there.

My Experience
I lived at Emerson South Collins for almost one year and my experience at this facility was terrible. Every time that it rained, it rained in my 2nd floor apartment. They agreed to leave Sunday dinner at my apartment and I agreed to pay $5.00 for the service for the next six months. They delivered it only three times. The dining staff had a terrible attitude, except for [name removed] whom they made head of dining service. Perhaps things are better now. The quality of the meals was poor. Turkey pot pie sounds great until you ate it and it had few vegetables and was bean based with two pieces of meat and plenty of beans in it. The deserts were minuscule In size. I hear that they have cut back to two meals now. The social director quit. They asked a staff person to head up the position after 5 months and the program went from none to bad. The staff are pleasant. [name removed], in maintenance, is like a bull in a China shop. He came to fix a leak under my bathroom sink. I guess he spilled something under the sink and used my good matching hand towel and took it. After their trying to replace it with an inferior quality of towel, I left with the front desk the matching cloth. It disappeared. After 2 months, I replaced it and they did give me rent credit for it. Next, [name removed] came in and thinking the water was coming in from a bad air-conditioner. I walked in and he was cleaning up the broken pieces of 5 out of 10 ornamental glass cat figurines which my daughter had given me for my birthday. There was no way to replace them and so I was just out. I then again told him that the water was coming from the window. The window was never fixed. I told the manager that I felt that they had broken the contract and that I was moving out. The new manager was kind enough to not charge me for two months rent.

POOR MANAGEMENT DECISION - food - nourishment
Yesterday, the management decided that it would be a reasonable, compassionate thing to do to inform their elderly residents that their DINNER MEAL will be eliminated in 4 FOUR days. These residents pay over $[removed] a month and all of the contracts they signed say meals are included. This is one of the strongest marketing points of the community. How can you eliminate a dinner meal when there are no stoves in the units. Also, over 65% of the residents do not drive nor have transportation. This is assinine and unbelievable. I get corporate bottom lines but do a utilization study, you will see that breakfast would make more sense. But dinner, for elderly folks. Doesn't make sense. I found this community from A place for mom, and you all should remove them from the search engine.

When things don't go according to plan.
My mom had a fall at Emerson and broke her hip. After that, she declined and passed away a few weeks later. I had to pay for the following month, even though I gave Emerson a heads up about the situation. There was no flexibility with management at all. I was very unhappy with how they handled things.

Our loved one overall is really happy there, but the meals and dining could be improved. In the beginning the meals were great, but given that our loved one is diabetic we do think they could offer more dietary restricted options.

Good Bang for Your Buck
My loved one has been very satisfied here. I would recommend you shop for several communities before deciding on a community for your loved one. The staff communication with the family and our loved one is good, it would be nice to have a quicker response on requests or at least an acknowledgment that they have received a request. There are three meals a day served to the residents and there are options to choose from. There is a box dinner served on Sunday evenings.
