Review for Cogir of Folsom
They lack in the food department as far as choices. No real menu. Staff is excellent as is the grounds and location.

I didn't have any meals, so can't honestly answer that one. ; [name removed]is terrific. My mom loved her. The value was by better than any other facility we considered. Some tried to be too fancy and came across too dark. Cogir is bright with lots of natural light lending to good outcomes for emotional health.

My dad has been at Cogir for about 5 months. My family and I are happy with the care he is receiving which is an incredible relief. My dad isn’t much of a social guy but they do try and get him out and about. Everybody there are very friendly and professional.

There is no comparison, Cogir is the best of the best! The accommodations how they reach out to help your LO settle in, and it doesn't stop after more-in! They treat my LO like family. Very comforting to know my LO is truly in a kind, caring, impeccable facility.

Reasons for the ratings I gave: My mother's hearing aids went missing in the first month. I can't get admin staff to return calls regarding concerns. It looks as if the facility ordered a new wheel chair without authorization and I can't get resolution.

The staff seemed to genuinely care about my mom's well-being. The first few months there was a fair amount of turnover in management and some staff, but I don't know if that is an industry issue/a them problem/new management etc. Her care did not seem to suffer though and it settled down. She was always clean, and fairly happy, although fortunately that's how her dementia manifested itself. Initially, we looked at other places, but my dad liked the relatively smaller size and the value. For us, it worked just fine.

I'd say overall it's good. There is no perfect place or one that would provide care as good as an immediate family member, but as care facilities go Cogir is good. There have been some missteps & misunderstandings which got corrected or cleared up, but overall the experience has been good/average of what to be expected of any care facility.

What we like the most about the Cogir of Folsom is the availability to talk to the staff members, however I do think the cost might be a bit high. We would recommend this community to other families but with hesitations.

My loved one who is a resident at Cogir of Folsom tells me he likes it there. I feel they are very short staffed and I also think there are limited people you can talk to when you see a problem with your loved ones care. The community is very nice especially where Cogir is located. I feel they could improve on communication with the family

I think that they need to realized that no matter how challenging or difficult a resident can be they are treated with respect and lots of patience and concern.

When I toured with Cogir of Folsom I was very confused because the facility had just undergone new ownership and the name was changed. I drove around and was looking for the new name, but the building still had the old name on it. They did not have a sign or banner or anything. That right off the bat turned me off.

I'm a nurse and I work with seniors who are in their final stages of life, so I visit patients in more than a dozen assisted living/ memory care facilities each week. I ignore the book-lined libraries, the marble lobbies, and the crystal chandeliers; instead I watch how the staff interacts with their residents, what kinds of activites are offered, and how safe the environment is. Empire Ranch is the best of the best. Empire Ranch has an excellent staff to resident ratio. The caregivers know each resident very well so they anticipate the needs of each resident on an individual basis. They know who likes to take a nap at 1PM and who prefers to join in activites. Morning and afternoon are filled with choices: live music, bingo games, arts and crafts projects are offered daily with something different day throughout the week. Their talented chef prepares fresh, delicious meals each day--complete with seasonal fruits and vegetables and ending with dessert. The residents truly enjoy meal times for the food as well as the socialization. (They also enjoy the homemade cookies and cupcakes served at snack time!) Resident rooms are spacious and are decorated by the resident and family. The feeling of home spreads beyond each bedroom with comfy recliners providing places to rest, a livingroom just the right size so residents can converse or watch TV, and a lovely shady courtyard with pathways meandering through the garden. The most important aspect of an assisted living or memory care facility is safety. This is usually the reason elderly family members are moved from their homes: they are no longer safe to live alone or with family--they need 24 hour care. Empire Ranch excels in safety. The residents are monitored closely, medications are given exactly as ordered by the physician, caregivers provide help with dressing, bathing, etc., and those who need extra help or attention are cared for with patience. Often, the elderly get their nights and days turned around; in these cases caregivers are there at 2AM (and all through the night) providing conversation and companionship to those who have trouble sleeping. We may want to have our loved one at home as they age, but sometimes it's just not safe and this becomes too stressful for everyone. Empire Ranch provides the care we wish we could give and they do so with the affection and kindness our loved one deserves.

Wonderful community with caring staff. My father was at this community recently and it truly was his home. He received such loving care from all of the staff at Empire Ranch. The building itself is really nice and doesn't smell like other communities we visited. We are so happy that we chose Empire compared to other communities near by. I would highly recommend this community to anyone who is looking for a community that specializes in memory care.

What an amazing place! After being accepted and rejected three times from other places (my wife was exit seeking), we found Empire. I have never seen so many loving people, from the Administrators to the medical staff to the care givers. Everyone cares so much about what they are doing. There are activities for the residents all day long and your loved one is bound to enjoy many, if not all of them. I cannot say enough good things about the facility and the people who work there.

[Name removed] and all the staff members are the best to my mom. My mother came to live at the facility about a year ago. My mother received excellent care from everyone. From the Administrator to care givers.Just a few weeks ago my sister [name removed] lost her battle to cancer. She was my mom's care giver. Now being hundreds of miles away in Texas. I found my else lost. But, [name removed] and his wonderful staff. Made a difference. Helping me out in a touch time. My mother is still at Empire Ranch and doing well. Hoping to bring my mom back to Texas in a few months. Its going to be hard to have such a wonderful place like Empire Ranch Alzheimer's Care Center. A Big shout out to all the staff at Empire Ranch. Keep up the great work....

My Mother-in-law lives here, it’s been pretty good so far. They’re doing a good job of caring for her and making sure she’s safe. The staff is very good and they care about her a lot. The food they serve is good. There are 2 different dining rooms, one for the residents that can feed themselves and one for the residents that can’t. What I’ve seen them feed her seems fine, it’s a lot of finger foods. The facility is kept very clean. They offer different activities like movies, Church, crafts, crochet (for those that can participate), and music. The facility also offers to take the able residents out to sight-see. I absolutely recommend them.
