My loved one was in the community during COVID. I think this is a nice community and there are lots of benefits to being there. The food was being delivered to my loved one's room. My loved one had a nice one bedroom apartment. There were some staff that were efficient and on top of things. One of those individuals was the Head Nurse and she was on top of things and she did a good job. [name removed] was good to work with as well.

The staff was very accommodating and did what they needed to to help her. The care at the community was good. When we did the initial assessment, there seemed to be a disconnect with what we felt was needed and what the staff was saying they would be able to provide. We felt not enough information was exchanged to accurately gauge her needs. Having mom live in Barrington of Fort Thomas, we felt we were given the extra time we needed to get her ready for her next move to a nursing home. We felt the community was definitely worth the price. It was less expensive than a nursing home would have been. There were lots of activities available, however mom didn't always want to participate. We were very impressed with this community.

As soon as we walked into the Barrington of Fort Thomas, I realized it would not be a good place for my father. The place itself was no good, the staff was all very nice, but it was just not a place where I would put my father.

I am basing this review not on a visit, unfortunately, but on being left hanging. I called the contact and gave a date and time to visit. He said he would call back the next day to confirm. That was over two weeks ago. I never got a call back. The other facilities I've been in touch with have returned phone calls and emails immediately.

The people are very friendly and helpful. They really try hard to make your first few weeks enjoyable. It is hard for the new resident to adjust to a new life style. Dad has had a hard time adjusting but it has only been a month. The food is delicious and having a happy hour has been nice. It is very convenient to our home and so we can visit easily and often. Overall it has been wonderful. It is expensive but not horrible compared to others in the area.

My mother is doing wonderful at Barrington of Fort Thomas. I highly recommend them. The overall total experience has been good. The food is a 3 or 4. The price is right.

Dad has been there for a short time now and he is doing great! Everyone has been nice and friendly and the staff are very accommodating! Dad has participated in some activities since moving in although he can't do it all. Barrington throws parties in the dining room area which he enjoys and really likes the food.

They love it so far. They say the food is great! We have been very happy with it. It's working out well.

We really like it. I think they get a five. The food is fine, he seems to like it. They were very comparable in price, and even less than some others we looked at.

The staff was very friendly and the facility was very clean. Administration provided us complimentary lunch with a variety of choices. Mom and I enjoyed lunch but I thought portions were small. However, when I asked for more chips I was provided additional. The facility was clean. Kevin the administrator was very thorough in addressing our questions and concerns. Mom and I were impressed with the flexibility of services and costs. We were delighted with the size of the apartments and they included washer/dryers unlike other communities we had visited. Pricing is comparable to other facilities we had visited. Grounds and facility appeared to be well kept. However, mom is limited to the size of apartment for she wants to remain on the ground floor to avoid the use of stairs and elevator. Mom and I were happy to hear we did not have to put a deposit or financial review to be considered for residency.
