The Regent

This place is so nice it actually makes me look forward to getting old. They have great food, beautiful rooms, lots of cool activities and a top notch staff. Why not spend your Golden Years feeling like you live on a cruise ship or a nice resort?

Staff very friendly and helpful!! I just moved in here and I love it!! Wonderful people live here. I also liked the way it smelled. My apartment is the perfect size for me and I am already starting to make friends!

My father moved in to the Regent just a couple of months ago and most amazing part has been the staff. They have been absolutely wonderful. None more so than [name removed]- the resident ‘tech help’. My father’s phone began acting up shortly after he moved in. A true nightmare when your loved one lives 1,500 miles away. A month of research and even a trip to the Verizon Store accomplished nothing. But one visit from [name removed] and she spotted the problem and had it fixed in no time. That saved us the money and headache of buying a new phone and setting it up. She’s now my hero.

After the sudden death of my father, my disabled mother quickly needed to find a place where she could live independently (with a bit of help from Interim Healthcare services), because staying in their home alone would have been much too difficult & lonely. If you are looking for a place for a parent, or for yourself…I highly recommend looking at The Regent. The rent includes everything but cable, and is pretty reasonable when you think about all that is included. Mom’s life is so much simpler now…no worries about household maintenance, utility bills, property taxes, transportation needs, accessibility issues at home, cooking, cleaning, etc. It is all taken care of now! Her only daily worries now that she’s living there, are deciding what activities she wants to partake in, and what to order off the menu at meals. Her life is easy now, as it should be at 84 years old. She is making friends and her life is much more fulfilling & easier than it would have been if she had tried to stay in

This has been a good experience at The Regent for my loved ones and family. The convivence of the location to family, and the abilities for the community to take my loved ones where they need to be has been amazing. There are three meals a day served to the residents, and they have lots choices to choose from for meals.

We went with The Regent because it had more amenities offered and the pay was all-inclusive. They do things such as providing a shuttle service to take residents place, there is a nurse on staff 24 hours, and there a lot activities provided as well. The apartment sizes are really nice. I like the fact that they try to pair new residents with people who share similar interests. They also try to get people involved in meal times rather than being isolated in their apartments. I would recommend to others looking.

There could be improvements with the overall meal and dining experience as well as the activities. For example on Thursday's the only activities doing on all day are religious ones, which is fine but we wish they would incorporate a bunch of different activities throughout the day for all the residents and not have designated days for just one activity or event. We also thought there would be someone there to mentor or help encourage our loved one to get out and about and that's not quite the case, so we wish there was somebody at the community to do that.

I would encourage you to look elsewhere. The Regent is on the expensive side. The food isn't ample enough for the residents, sometimes you are made to feel like you don't matter in the dining room. The food is mediocre. Some of the activities include arts, music, speakers, shopping trips, and more for the residents to participate in. If there is something the residents wants to do, the activities director tries to make it happen.
