Great community!

My Mom is very happy there. I have walked into her room when a staff person was changing Mom's Depends and the 2 of them were laughing and having a great time. My Dad died there on [date removed] and the loving, caring staff were amazing through the dying process. The overall cleanliness of the community is great. Their maintenance person, [name removed], is amazing. He is much, much more than a maintenance man. His interactions with residents and their visitors is so positive...he goes out of his way to help in a kind, caring way.

My mother resided at Battle Creek for 18 months until her death. We saw Battle Creek through the days of the pandemic and residential staffing challenges that resulted from it. The personal service and attention to my mother was so consistently terrific and appreciated. Perfect service care is personal and challenging - Battle creeks staff and management were terrific throughout my mothers stay,

A valuable resource for memory care residents

After systematically and carefully researching memory care for my mother and personally visiting and re-visiting seven possible facilities, it was clear that Battle Creek was the top choice. In terms of services provided, staff responsiveness, cleanliness, accessibility to management personnel when needed, etc., all get 5 Gold Stars. My only concern has been some absence of reception staff on the weekends to open the door for visitors. While a phone number is made available for visitors to call on the weekends, and staff have been responsive, when a receptionist is on site, it does greatly facilitate visitor access with less trouble.

The staff are very attentive and nice and very cordial. My wife is receiving great care and they contact me with any information when needed. They are very efficient and friendly and competent. They do a lot for the residents in terms of activities. There is just a lot of good things going on. They have activities like bingo, painting pots, jigsaw puzzle and a live musician that came in.

My mother [name removed] has gown stronger physically over the six month she has been at Battle Creek and is now also more alert and communicative with her family. The consistent positive attitudes of energies demonstrated by the BC staff, from the front door to the neighborhood event-live staff-have all contributed to her (and our) positive experiences at Battle Creek.

For the Right Person, Could Be a Great Place to Live

It seems like they have great programs set up for the residents. The community seems to be clean. The room wasn't ready when we came to move my loved one in. I would suggest you follow up with the community to make sure they are ready for your loved one.

It was An Easy, Informative, and Compassionate Decision

The staff have been receptive to concerns and questions. They know my love one by name. There are a lot of activities. Some of the activities that are available are walks around the garden, country drives, bat the ball, chair aerobics, root beer floats, movie nights, and more.

The best of the best

Our experience at this community was incredible, we can only give them the most highest remarks. They were incredibly loving, there were nurses and CNA's available at all times. They were always in our loved ones room, and they did anything and everything we needed especially during the covid outbreak. When our loved one had to go onto hospice care, they assigned her to a room where i could come visit and sit with her. They were so careful about not bringing covid into the community, there was just so much love and care. I encourage everyone to go to this community.

Simply the best!

I would like to thank the wonderful team at Battle Creek memory care of south Salem for always going above and beyond when it came to my fathers care. My dad had a dementia diagnosis and when he was in his own home, he spent so much time just sitting around confused, angry, and was no longer caring for himself. After only 4 days with Battle Creek of Salem, he had a smile on his face and had already made several friends that he was so excited to tell us about. I had not seen this side of my dad for a really long time and I am forever thankful for the beautiful memories I now have of him in his last months. Also, during such a hard time this last year with covid, I was unable to be at my dads side due to covid restrictions, but with the caring staff updating me and allowing myself and my family to FaceTime with dad, we got to feel as though we were there with him and it made us all feel so good to always see his beautiful big smile. I would like to acknowledge and give a special thank you to the executive director of this amazing memory care, Todd Whitehead, for putting together such an amazing team of employees, for providing such a caring place with such a high service of care and for truly supporting a higher quality of life. You are certainly by far the best memory care and best staff from the front desk employees, to the healthcare team, to the care staff, to the kitchen staff, and all of management you are all amazing!! Thank you very much from myself and my entire family for caring for my dad and treating him with the utmost love and respect.

My review of Battle Creek Memory Care

I would tell others that the layout of the "neighborhoods" is an ideal arrangement for memory care residents. They have groups of about 20 residents that have common spaces. It facilitates intimacy, good staff control and observation, and allows a socialization that I think does not exist in other apartment like facilities. They have spaces that allow 2 residents to be together in a same room, so for a husband and wife it is like a mini apartment. From a health care standpoint they have excellent nursing and staff care who are very engaged in the residents and their well being.
