Bonaventure

This is a very nice community but it was more on the expensive side.

I sold my home after my husband passed away and started looking for a place to live. I toured five senior homes in Vancouver but kept coming back to Bonaventure. The building is beautiful. The staff are the best. I love my apartment and the people have become family to me.

This was the nicest community that we looked at. This community was very bright and cheery but did not have the conversion for Medicare that we were looking for.

I was very impressed by the whole tour experience with Cedar Ridge, unfortunately the location was just too far from family.

We were only residents at Silver Creek for a short period of time because my loved one needed more care, but they were very helpful.

We chose Oswego Place because it was fairly cost effective and they were willing to work with us on what we needed. They were very flexible with getting us moved in quickly and we appreciated that. It is a little bit of a smaller community so it has more of a family oriented type of feel. It is quiet and secluded area and the grounds are very nice. It has been a good experience and I would definitely recommend them to others looking.

The community is very accommodating, and appropriate for dementia residents. They do have activities for the residents to choose from. The staff are quick to respond to any questions or concerns the family may have.

I would say to go to this community it is a good place for your loved one. It is so well loved and known that it is hard to even get into this community. They do not have activities right now due to covid but they do still do things in their own rooms and do outings on their own. The staff do still encourage them to get together and hang out. Its not your home or house but it is the next best thing.

This community did not have the medicaid spin down and that was one of the main things that made us not go with this community. Also the lady that was giving us the tour had to get the manager when we wanted to talk about prices and we felt like she should have known the prices. other than this we did like the community a lot.

My loved one is thrilled to be here. The staff were able to assist in getting my loved one to walk down to the dining room again. This has been a good experience for us. My loved one loves the food here.

Overall they've done very well. It's a pretty good place, but they're totally understaffed, and their follow-up would be a 2 on a scale of 1-5. They have all the things you would expect, a hairdresser, housekeeping, and the place is kept pretty darn clean. The problem is they don't have enough people to get stuff done. So maintenance is starting to fall behind.

Now I have a tiny one bedroom one bathroom assisted living apartment with a "kitchenette". Just big enough for me and my 2 cats. Yes they do allow pets here. I'm on the assisted side because #1, that's all they had at the time I moved in, & #2, that's the only way Medicare will take residents, is if they're on assisted living. The apartments are really nice and clean, their food is really good, they do weekly housekeeping or more if you need it, they have activities, if you want to join in, they have bingo nights and a theater. It's a big room with a big screen tv and they show movies that are on Amazon Prime They do outings (when it's not COVID) and they have a bus that does grocery runs and Dr runs a few days a week for those who don't drive or can't drive. I use that usually in the winter. The staff here is amazing. They're really nice and so easy to talk to about any concerns you might have, either with the community, your apt, or personally. It's just a good place to be.

This was a beautiful community. The location was the one of the reason we did not go with this community. This community was also a little more pricey than other communities that we looked at and the one that we picked.

The staff is kind, good and make an effort to know the residence name and interact with them. The food is great and I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

Our family had an in person tour and the community was very nice, our tour was very good. The reason we did not choose this community as another one we looked at had bigger and better room set ups. However, the staff we did meet with were just wonderful and very pleasant.

We have had nothing but good things to say about this community. My loved one says it's a great place to live. The community is clean, and the staff is very friendly. They have activities for the residents to do, and the food is good also. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

Very nice tour. [names removed] spent quality time with us and We appreciate all their knowledge and input.

We chose Oswego Place because of the proximity to family, the facility itself is smaller so she gets more one on one care, and after talking with the director when we were looking, she was very knowledgeable and helpful. They are always very responsive when I have questions and they are great in terms of communication if any changes or things like that, they are attentive and pay a lot of attention to what she needs. I would recommend them.

They have done an outstanding job throughout the pandemic, my mom doesn't even worry anymore, they team there has kept my mom safe and that is what matters the most to me.

The family was in and out to see our loved one in the community. They even allowed us to bring the dog in to see our loved one. Once the doctor classified our loved one as hospice we were able to see our loved one in person. The staff was accommodating for the family and our loved one. The staff were very nice to work with. Todd deserves the highest marks possible. He was wonderful to work with. They kept the residents up-to-date with any changes via notes on their doors.
