East Village Place

Our father was here for almost a year a few years ago. The staff was wonderful. It was a hard decision to place Dad in a facility, but with his alzheimers progressing he needed more care than we could provide. After a few months we moved him to the hospice care unit there which was a difficult decision, but we knew that he was still in good hands.

Great care in memory unit. Clean, attractive facility with excellent food. My husband has dementia and it's his 1st time in a facility. He was apprehensive about it but with encouragement from staff, within days he began participating in exercise (loves it) and other activities and having lunch with several men who took him under their collective wing. Most importantly, the nurse and caregivers are kind and personable, and pay attention to my husband's individual needs and preferences. They are respectful, patient and reassuring when he's confused and he's gotten comfortable with them. The nurse, without my asking, sends me updates on how he's doing. This is a great place for my husband and gives me peace of mind!

My guide was knowledgeable, energetic, and sympathetic throughout our time together. I received a thorough tour of the facility, had the opportunity to ask all my questions, and never felt rushed. What a beautiful residence!

We brought my my mother-in-law to East Village Place after visits to three area memory care centers and 6 months of trying to convince her husband that this was a better option for her than he could give her himself in their home. Her behavior had become erratic and his frustrations very real. She would not allow any of us to clean her and even fought feeding. She spent most of her days laying in her recliner staring at the wall. Finally she is in a place where she is kept clean and happy, with activities throughout the day to stimulate her mind. She has people to talk to and her caregivers have the patience of saints. Her husband at first had trouble coping with the move, though he himself had said he could no longer take care of her himself, but he has come to terms with the arrangement by going to visit her twice daily during meals to feed her. The staff are always welcoming and patient. They provide activities that get her up on her feet. She went from barely able to walk to the bathroom to participating in games with the other residents. This is not a nursing home, but a memory care center where she can live in safety. We are very happy with the arrangement.

We had a very tour of this community. Everyone was very kind, and helpful. The staff was friendly, and informative. The experience went well.

Wonderful place. Excellent available services for Mom (nursing, diet, living, etc.). Communication with [Removed] was great and Nurse [Removed] was very helpful as well. Maintenance, [Removed], was right there when we needed him to check a measurement in the room and we hadn't even signed up yet! Lovely, clean, skilled and responsive. Mom is excited for her next chapter and her new home. Thank you [Removed] for all your help.

My Mom is happy with her new lifestyle and experiences. East Village Place (EVP) is doing and excellent job and is a good fit for Mom. EVP feels more like home than any place I have seen. EVP has a wide variety of activities so that all residence are kept active. Mom has made a quite few new friends and sits with a great group for her meals. All EVP personnel are professional, friendly and caring. Yes, EVP was the right choice for Mom.

I really like this community for good care for my mother in law. We were able to have a meal there and the food appeared to be good and we did it enjoy it. The staff is active with her, This is a great value and they offer a special floor for her needs. We would recommend this community for many reasons for the care and the value.

I looked at a number of places, this one seemed to stand out. Firstly they do a good job with Alzheimer patiences. Nobody is in bed all day up and out of their room. Price was reasonable

I toured this community for my wife and her needs. It was a pleasant tour. The community looked nice. From what I saw everything looked neat and tidy. The staff I met was friendly and kind. They answered my questions and were informative. It was a nice tour, but not the place for my wife and her needs.

My tour of this community was a decent. I was very impressed overall. The community looked decent, it did have a homey feeling. The community does need some updating. It was decent tour, but not a community I would had felt comfortable placing my father in.

Our experience was great with this community. My loved one stayed for a day and a half but during that time the staff and caregivers were terrific. Its is a great place and everything from the care to cleanliness was wonderful. A Place For Mom has been so helpful and we appreciate all that was done for us.

The food at East Village Place looked good and I did not hear any complaints. The staff were wonderful with my mom and the other residents. They are very caring, kind and treat all the residents with respect. The community is clean and well taken care of. While mom did not participate in any activities there was a variety available. I would recommend this community.

It's wonderful. They are really good. It's an assisted living place with two levels of memory care. The staff is wonderful. They are truly concerned. The food is good, and the rooms are nice, and more homey. They have the in between for memory care and assisted living. Take the time to go back two or three times, and just sit and watch, and look around some more, I know you are busy but that would be my advice.

I think the East Village Place is lovely and intimate. The apartments are very nice. The grounds are beautiful. The communication with the staff is pretty good. They offer various activities. They have live entertainment, singing groups, crafts, bingo, church service, and more. They also have a van that is able to take the residents to different places. On the 4th of July, they had an ice cream social.

We are very happy our mother landed at EVP. Mom needs a little more care to help her along in her recovery phase. They have been doing a great job providing what she needs and bringing in the extra such as PT and OT. She is happy there, which says volumes. We feel she is safe there as EVP practices resident safety to help prevent falls and injury. The food is excellent. Their efforts to work with our family have been excellent. Her room is lovely and renovated. She's been busy with activities when I thought it would be difficult to get her to participate. She has felt very welcome from her first minute there, and mentioned to me just the other day that everyone knows her name--"It's like Cheers" she told me!

I think we have ironed out our concerns. There was some issues with bathing schedules in the beginning. They addressed our concerns right away as they do for any concern we might have. She loves the food, the portions are a little larger than what she is used to. They were sort of mid range for pricing. They were the only place that we visited that had two levels of memory care, everyone else had one level that was secure. For the in between stage of memory care, this is a really good solution.

Overall we've had a great experience with East Village Place, I'd give them top marks across the board! The staff have all been very friendly, accepting, warm, and caring! The facility itself is well kept, clean, and it seems like they have a lot to provide for their residents.

This was just a short stay, everything went well, and I plan on using them again a few times. I found the staff, Jessica and Annalee, the two nurses that were part of the medical staff were exceptional. I found them to be extremely professional.

East Village Place was able to take my mother in on short notice, after she accepted that she could no longer live alone. By entering as a respite client, mother understood that she was going there for 30 days and could leave at the end of that time, if she really wanted to. Luckily, she liked it and has agreed to stay. This made the transition easier as it was her decision to continue. The staff has been wonderful, encouraging her to participate in the activities there but insuring that her choices are respected. I would highly recommend East Village Place.
