This is a very clean and welcoming facility. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and put us at ease. Management was very friendly, transparent and thorough when answering our questions.
I currently visit about 2 to three times a week and I love this Memory care. It’s clean, the staff is friendly and I love to see the activities make the residents happy. Also , I love how convenient this community is to shopping and golf cart access.
The LPN in the 200 memory care wing hostile. Her communication approach is very rude and aggressive. She runs her mouth without listening to details with a nasty attitude. If she can be hostile towards visitors I wonder how she treats residents when no one is watching. Patient left in the room saturated with urine, sheets were filthy. Floor was soo dirty, the stench of urine all over. The place is extremely unorganized and dirty.
My husband doesn’t get enough attention He gets more neglected due to lack of communication
My father lives there Staff are great Especially Angel, who needs a raise
One of the most difficult decisions I had to make was placing my family member in memory care. I told the sales director that they would probably just sit and watch tv in their room and they shared that they would gently encourage trying new things and build a relationship with them to learn their likes and dislikes. Fast forward 2 months and I can't be more amazed or happier. Participating in exercise, music, happy hour, sitting outside enjoying the sun. Happy and flourishing. This was the best decision to choose Serenades. The leaders are always available to chat if needed and that is not what I always hear about other places. Thank you Serenades for making my family members life the best it can be for them.
We chose Serenades based on promises of safety and care—but were deeply disappointed. ✅ The food was excellent, and my mom regained weight and cognitive strength thanks to good nutrition. Staff were friendly and professional. ⚠️ Activities were minimal and inconsistent. The beloved activity director often had to cover housekeeping and maintenance, showing dedication but also revealing that resident engagement isn’t prioritized. ❌ The biggest issue: safety equipment was non-functional. Motion detectors, bathroom safety lights, bathroom emergency pull cords never worked. My mom fell twice and even exited the facility—incidents that could have been prevented. Despite submitted work orders, nothing was fixed during her 3-month stay. If safety and engagement matter to you, look elsewhere.
