Pegasus Senior Living, LLC

We looked at this when it was still the Merrill Gardens. I liked it and my mom and other siblings liked it. It was the oldest of the three places we looked at but it was well kept. I liked the dining situation. It was just like a restaurant. You had selections to choose from and breakfast wasn't from 8 - 9, it was from whenever they opened the dining room until lunch. Then it was open until 7 and you can go anytime - it was up to you. We really liked that feature.

Pleasant facility, close to Northside and St. Jo's medical community. Seniors appeared active, many were in the dining room having dinner, and quite a lot of talking. Anytime dining is a nice option they have. Looked at 1BR, approx. 500sqft, sink and fridge, can bring microwave. Mom and Dad could be comfortable, I think. Hallways had chair rail ledge to grasp and walk around the facility. Lots of sitting areas in hallway, but a little sterile, not inviting. didn't see anyone using them. Allows for independent and assisted living together, but no memory care. Main concern would be whether Mom could get sufficient care if Dad were gone for most of the day, for example. Not sure she would be able to find the dining room on her own, unless room was close to it. 113 units, 44 men, lots of couples, wait lists for studios and 2BR, one 1BR available

The room that they had available was small and they only had the one room available. The other thing was that it was a little bit older looking and a little worn. The lady that we know that lives there loves it! She says the people there are just so friendly and helpful. She was disappointed when we decided not to place my brother-in-law there. She loves it so that's some thing.

We revisited this again today 8/26/13 and found the outdoor area very inviting and the rooms a perfect size. There was lots of activity going on with lots of resident participation.

I liked that one. They were nice and I liked the way their eating situation was set up. Their food was open from 7 in the morning to 7 at night and you can go whenever.

She's very happy there, its the only one I've seen but the staff all seems up and caring. I don't know much about the activities at this time but it's been positive and I thought they had nice grounds and there certainly were pleasant surroundings. I don't think there's any concerns, they saw 2 or 3 places and may have chose it due to locality. The food was pretty good, there was a good, positive change with our loved one, she gets dressed to go to meals and stuff liek that so that's a good thing, she looked real good when we went up there.

My sister toured this place instead of me. She was very impressed and really enjoyed the tour. Unfortunately they can't accommodate my handicap brother to move in with him. So I'm afraid this won't workout for us.

Their motto is "Many to Many" but I felt like my loved one needed more one on one personal care. It seems like this community is just too big for the type of care that we were looking for, needed more focused care for our loved one.

Visited 7/27; A list

Toured on July 6 with Community Relations Director. Very pleasant and energized atmosphere. Residents appeared to be happy and engaged. Community targets active residents who want to maintain/improve level of health. The bedroom of the regular 1-bedroom floor plan is very very small. In an effort to feel less like a facility, caregivers do not use carts. This community has a much higher male to female ratio. Meals are not served on a schedule, but are available throughout the day. There are several meal choices. Very active calendar.

Liked it, didn't see memory care so will go and see.

Impressive staff and facility. Many activities Mother would not use. Would be very interested in pursuing further but cost prohibitive. Mother has been evaluated and needs Memory Care, not assisted living.

Were scheduled for 5/3/13 move in but when she was evaluated they didn't think she was a good fit for AL. We went back to RPointe to look at memory care, we like the private room but we're not ready to put her there yet, she's back home for a while. We're keeping her on their MC list. Not sure how long I will be able to manage, I am getting sitters & home health starts today. I think I'll know what to do after having her in my care for a little while. So right now she's home.

Very friendly and cozy apt.

The floor plans here were excellent. I like the full kitchens. Didn't get to have lunch, but the dinning area was lovely. I also liked the in house therapy rooms. the only drawback was the corridors were extremely long. Dad would have a hard time getting around there with so much walking.

I liked this one best, near the Theater, residence seemed bright and active.

like the independent living -- don't love location
