I really did like Proveer
My father and I really liked it. There were so many good things about their facility that my father and I liked . How ever my father got into The VA which saved him around [fee removed] a month-FYI - I went for a tour first to see if I liked the VA and then I asked my Dad if would be interim a tour- He said yes and thought he would like it there. So we got on the list. Not quite as aesthetically looking, but nice and a lot of amenities. Especially for someone his age and being in out of the hospital on a regular basis.
1.Home atmosphere.
2. Cozy little sitting areas made to reflect your home.
3.Great Security for keeping your loved one safe from outside intruders.
4. Fun activities and outings.
5. The Huntsville library van visits often, this is great for the avid reader.
6. Very friendly staff staff.

happy to call Proveer home
It's a great place that I'm happy to call home. It feels as if we are one big happy family. We have lots of on site activities, card and board games that are really fun to attend.
I'm in the larger studio and it is real roomy. Perfect for me and my kitty.

Overall, a very nice well maintained community that we could recommend as one of the better mid-priced options.
We had some issues with the cable that took about a month to be resolved. They said there was wifi but it was never strong enough to use in her room even though we were told it was going to be reworked, that never happened during the 8 months my mom was there. The room especially the bathroom was always clean but the faucet in her kitchenette area leaked and dripped. The staff was really great. They were friendly and treated my mom very well, it should be noted that someone from the family visited every day. However, they were often understaffed and Mom sometimes did not get baths on time. Despite that, they were very kind. If she did not come to meals, someone would check on her and bring her something if she wished. The meals were generally pretty good especially breakfast but there usually wasn't really a second choice offered at any meal. Breakfast was horribly early, had to be there before 8am. There wasn't anyone to run activities on the weekend so often it was up to the residents to run a exercise DVD or use puzzles or games left out for them in the activities area. Having said that the activities director tried very hard to include my mom in what was offered during the week. It was not the cheapest place but it was very comfortable and if all services had been offered as advertised it would have been a bargain, as it was we were satisfied.

Great potential but needs improvement.
We have had multiple issues with my mom needing help and waiting over an hour or multiple hours for assistance. Food listed on menu and items that are supposed to always be available are often not available or at least servers tell that to residents. Medications poorly managed. I think that they are going through a transition phase and trying to improve but our experience has been lack luster at best. Smell of urine often appears in back hallway.

A nice place in a quiet and pleasant neighborhood.
SummerHouse is going through a transition to new ownership but seem to be handling it pretty well. Be sure to stay in touch with the staff to know what's going on with your loved one. The staff have always been very friendly and helpful when I have questions or requests. And the other residents are really friendly as well. I'm glad to have that for my dad, who really needed to be around another people. They go on a variety of different outings - to Walmart once a month, to thrift stores. They went to a play rehearsal at reduced ticket price, and they go out to lunch. On-site at SummerHouse, they have activities like karaoke, bingo, cooking classes, gardening classes, movie nights. I like that they have an enclosed courtyard, so you don't have to worry about people who don't have any business being in the facility coming around and taking advantage of your loved one. They also have a screened in sunroom so you don't get attacked by mosquitos. l also like that they have meetings with the residents once a month to discuss things and get resident input. Some communities have pullcords in the rooms, but I prefer SummerHouse's pendant system, where residents wear a pendant and can therefore call for help anywhere within the facility, and not just in their room. It has been an adjustment for my dad going from living on his own with complete autonomy to now living in assisted living with someone else deciding when it's time to take medications or have meals and things like that, but it has been a positive change overall.

Tour experience
I was going to put my loved one here but unfortunately they did not pass the cognitive test. I really liked the facility, it was very nice and I liked the layout. The only downfall was on one side of the building all of the rooms face a brick building, so when you look out the window that is all you see and that's where my loved ones room was going to be.

Great potential but falls short.
We expected more activities and the calendar looks good but things frequently don't happen. There is no one on the weekend to run activities so those on the schedule are just suggestions. We expected that Mom would have scheduled showers and that someone would come every morning and night to help with dressing but she is expected to press her call button to request assistance which we have had a hard time getting Mom to do as she doesn't want to "bother" anyone. It's important to have someone visit often because it seems like you can't trust that services will be provided as promised. It took about a month to get the cable TV working and the wifi is still not good 2 months later. Having said that, the staff are very friendly and kind. I think that like many places, they are struggling to get adequate staffing so that might explain the shortcomings.

My review of SummerHouse
They changed ownership while my mother was here and during the transition the quality of went downhill a little bit. The response time was a little slower and the food service was not as good. Prior to the changeover, the food would have been a 5. [name removed] the director wonderful. My mother really loved the church services that were provided, but she did not get involved in many other physical activities.

Overall Good Experience
For the most part it has been a good experience. There have been a few things we had issue with, but that wasn't because of the facility per se. I liked how they worked really closely with us and helped us with the transition. And cleanliness has been very good as well.

Happy at home??
I am a recent resident at Elmcroft. I came to stay a short time but I am still here for 4 months. I really am happy here. The staff are wonderful. The will help you with anything you need. They always are smiling and happy to help. The kitchen staff are great as well. The food is very tasty and plenty of it. The building is very clean. I first noticed that there is no odor. After moving I found out why. There is cleaning all day ,e ery day. Each residents took us cleaned weekly. Trash is taken out 3 times a day. The management staff is always available to talk anytime. When they you are home, they are correct. You will know you are home only better!

Watch what you are promised
I was very impressed with our initial visit. I chose for my mother as though for myself. Soon learned there were many leaving including staff. Food was not good. New changes in food director. Recommend a family member eat with your love bed one. New Director is arriving. Love to see focus on clients. Often no activities due to that person must drive bus to doctor appointments. Need more staff and a second activities leader.

Nice facility but understaffed
My mother was a resident at Elmcroft for about a year. We loved the location and the facility was easy to navigate. I especially enjoyed the security offered by the locked doors. The decor is nice, food was great and the new activities coordinator is really trying to offer fun activities for the residents. I would caution anyone looking for a place for their loved one to remember that all facilities are on their best behavior when you visit. This is not my first experience with senior living services. Be sure to read the fine print and ask lots of questions up front. Elmcroft is a great facility, however, they are severely understaffed. Those on duty are multi-tasking and just trying to hold it all together and provide for the needs of the residents. I was in the dining facility one day on a weekend where lunch was served to my mother's table 45 minutes late because they just couldn't physically bring out the food fast enough due to only 2 staff members serving. I liked the direct service staff-RA's and nurses. Leadership for this facility needs to either hire more employees or engage in the direct services. Maintenance issues were slow to be resolved as well.

I was very impressed with this facility. The building is very well maintained and the locked entrance gave me a good feeling about security. The facility was clean, easy to navigate and all staff encountered were friendly. The residents looked happy as well. I hope my loved one chooses this place for his next home.

Tips for evaluating your community options
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the Alabama regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Alabama regulations for Assisted Living.
