Blake Management Group

The Blake was very nice, especially since it is new!!! However, I hadn't hit the lottery yet when I toured the community and I felt is was way out of my price range.

The facility is beautiful and new, the food was excellent....chef was great and accommodating. I felt the individual attention to my Dad was not always given as promised. There were a few times I had to follow up with administrators for follow through. The respite fees are expensive but it is a nice facility with a positive happy vibe. Some of the facilities I toured were pretty depressing .

Communication wasn't that great but my parents were living in the independent cottages so I don't know how it would be in the building.

I liked The Blake at Hamlin very much. The facility was very clean. They had lots of activities. It seemed like a nice place and was our #2 choice. It was just a smaller community than were were looking for and was less ideally located (not as close to stores/restaurants, etc.).

We love The Blake at New Braunfels community and the nurses are the best. My dad is doing very well and pleased with his new place. Thank you so much for helping us find the right place for our loved one

All the staff are very friendly. They make my loved one feel very special and cared for. I know that just about every place has issues with the food. She would just like to see better quality and more selection in the meals provided. There also seems to be inadequate staffing in the dining area. Often there is only one server, so there's a delay in service.

This is the place to be if you have higher level of care needs. We love the staff. The whole community is good. They've had trouble with staffing in several departments. Housekeeping especially, but they do a great job keeping up. As far as the food, mom says dinner isn't always great, but lunch is. If chef is there, it's great. One downfall, they don't have a pool. But I will say, mom really came to life in this place. She always has something to do and there is a variety of activities to choose from. However, the activities director for her unit is leaving. He's amazing and very fun, even just to talk to. Replacing him won't be easy. We've been told that the director from the Memory Care unit is taking over and will run the activities for both units. I'm concerned about their ability to keep up with both, but we'll see. I feel comfortable and like mom is always safe here. Even during the hurricane, mom was safe and they did a great job staying in contact with us. I have and absolutely will continue to recommend them to family and friends.

We liked the community. The residents were a little more advanced than where my loved one was at.

I have serious concerns about their patient to worker ratio. Like everybody else, they don't have enough help right now.

The Blake at Woodcreek Farms is an absolutely beautiful facility. It is bigger with very tall ceilings which makes it feel grand. The price was higher here, but that did not deter us. The only downfall was the location was too far from me and I felt she needed a smaller environment.

I thought they were very nice. And the community was very similar to another The Blake community we toured. The biggest reason we didn't go with either of them was a North Carolina vs. South Carolina issue. South Carolina can’t do a lot of things medically. And I felt as my parents aged and progressed in their illness, we would have ended up back in North Carolina anyway.

Based on our tour, I thought the people were very nice. The community was the right size for our loved one, with maybe 95-100 residents. They were reasonably priced.

We had a great tour experience with The Blake at Baxter Village. The facility was beautiful and clean and all the staff really took their time with us. It was just way too big and we knew she would feel overwhelmed.

The Blake at Edgewater is a very nice facility and all of the staff were knowledgeable and really took their time with us, but it was way too big and we thought my loved one would feel overwhelmed.

The cleanliness of the community could use a little bit of improvement, but one of the best things about The Blake is the meals and dining service. The staff members are excellent, they are so friendly to everyone. They do offer a lot of activities, and the value for cost is excellent.

We chose The Blake because it is a new facility that is only 3 years old. It is also very close and convenient to family. We knew someone who was a resident here and we went and visited so we had previous experience to see the care first hand. I do think the administrative staff needs improve on communication to the families. I would recommend to others.

We really liked The Blake at Township. The director was unable to meet with us that day for the tour, but the gal who showed us around was so gracious and flexible. They have a really pretty lake and the room sizes here were great. They called me recently just to check in on my mom and how she was doing and that really meant a lot to me. We had a great tour experience.

We toured this community and it is very nice. The facility looks good and they have had a good covid plan in place. I have a friend that is at this community.

Excellent property. Very new and fresh. The interior common spaces are excellent, but not overly large. The community is set in the Township which is beautiful setting beside the lake. Numerous amenities from spa to movie room and much more. They have a staff of two NP's and several RN's with 24/7 medical staff on premise. The NP's are practicing on site basic medicine for the residents so they do not have to leave campus for smaller medical concerns. They begin at the assisted living level and we are looking to begin at independent living level. Otherwise the Blake would be a contender for us.

There was a high turnover in staff and we could never get a consistent person helping. Some of the staff could have been more friendly. the management seemed to be good but I didn't think she was getting the care we were paying for.
