Good Experience Overall, Although Not As Much Care as Expected
Overall everything seemed to go smoothly. The building was clean and tidy. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. My loved seemed to decline once there and needed more care than I felt she got. All the staff members were very helpful and caring. My loved one likes all kinds of food and said it all tasted good. They did assist her with her meals. The up front cost to enter the facility was extremely high. The basic cost to stay was similar to other facilities that I had looked into.

My loved one is safe,happy and well cared for.
My only issue is that my mom is a reluctant resident and I don't know how to help her acclimate what should I be doing to help her. I do reach out every one is nice but I don't get feedback I need to help her. I would and have recommended this community to others.

Tour experience
I had a great tour at Dover Place. The lady showing me around was very helpful in explaining everything. The facility itself was older and the room sizes were smaller in comparison to a newer place we were looking at. It was also more expensive.

Would Recommend
They try really hard to be as accommodating as possible and work with the residents and make their stay as nice as possible. They go for scenic drives, bingo, bands or singers come in and perform form them, amongst many others. They provide transportation in their van for appointments. The food is pretty good. The location has 2 floors, assisted living is located on both floors. Age is 60 and above. They provide housekeeping daily and laundry once a week. The residents are friendly.

tour of Dover Place
I toured Dover Place and the experience was fantastic! they were very accommodating and willing to give me a tour on a Saturday. everyone was very friendly - from the residents to the staff - they went out of their way to greet us and make sure we've been helped. they left a great impression on me and seemed to have everything; but we chose another community because Dover Place was too far away from my loved one.

I wish we would of found it sooner
Dover Place has been such a positive experience so far, the staff and their care services are a 5 plus. Our loved one is really enjoying the meals, and the activities are wonderful. There is always so much going on, we have been able to see a few of them when we come to visit and they are great. The value seems to be very comparable for everything they have to offer. We used to have a care giver come to our home which our loved one did well with, but now being at a community our loved one is thriving. Having dementia, and being surrounded by others with dementia helps her feel normal, and does not stress her out. The environment is very stimulating, and this is a place you would want to put your loved ones.

Very nice facility and friendly staff. Pricing options were discussed with me prior to the tour and I was sent pricing info via email; however, when pricing was discussed on the day of the tour, the pricing was not the same as was discussed and documented, it was higher.

Highly recommend, great family place
Dover Place has been great. We chose this facility because the overall reviews we saw online were all positive and the hospitality and friendliness of the lady that we dealt with. It is more expensive but the care is well worth the money. The visiting hours are great. They have activities for each type of person and they have a lot to do. I would recommend to others looking.

Our Tour Experience
Our tour at Dover place was very nice. Everyone we interacted with was very nice, the facility appeared very clean, and we actually got to see the residents actively participating in a craft project, which was nice. The sales person was great, and she put us in touch with a nurse for the tour. We ended up choosing a different place that I liked the look and feel of a little better, that was closer to home as well.

Nice Facility!!
I thought this place was a really nice facility with a lot of great amenities for all of the residents. They did a good job keeping the community well maintained and very clean in all the rooms. They had a wide open floor plan that was easy to navigate through. It was just not the right location for my family and I in the end decision.
