Some of them are very nice. They had a nurse and a director, which is what stuck out. I would recommend to others.

I would recommend with caveats

Has not been a wonderful experience. Food has not been good. The only reason I am still here is the have washer and dryer in the room. Food and cleanliness is probably the two highest ones for improvement. The activities are fair, but have no bus to take people with w/c to dr. or activities. I don't have much need for help so can't really rate the caregivers.

Things started out okay

My loved one was previously a resident here, but we've moved her to another facility. Things started out okay, but then we had some issues. One thing that really bothered me was that the floors in the kitchen/dining area were dirty and slippery. The food itself wasn't too bad, other than offering mostly chicken and a lot of rice. There just wasn't a lot of variety and when you did choose an alternative option- it was a long wait before you got it. Like 40 minutes for a baked potato. Communication with the family was zero. We were also overcharged and are still waiting for them to get that resolved. I know that since we've moved our loved one out, they've changed management and are trying to fix things. But it was not a good experience for us.

Our families experience

The Ivy of McKinney has potential to be really nice, it is very clean but we have just had some frustrating things happen time and time again. Most of the staff members are really good but the head nurse or supervisor nurse does not always seem on top of her game - when we ask a question we do not always get a direct answer. They could work on improving their internal organization and communication with families.

It's a Been a Work in Progress

Our experience wasn't the greatest from the move in and after settling in. The medication management for our loved one could have been more consistently delivered at specific times instead of whatever time the community choose to deliver these medications. The community was able to work with the family to get this complaint handled for the family after a few reminders by the family though.

Great fit for mom

We chose The Ivy at McKinney because the food served is more like my moms home cooking and she fit in well with the crowd here. The value for the money is excellent especially for everything we get. Every apartment has their own washer and dryer which has been a big plus and the staff will come help her with laundry when needed. It is more like apartment style living, they offer more independence if you want it but also have care available. The atmosphere is very friendly especially the residents, it is more middle class and there are always people out and about. I would definitely recommend the facility to others.

Horrible Place!

Worst place ever!!! This place is absolutely a mess. We had such a bad experience from the beginning. They kept making mistakes with my dad's medication repeatedly. The lead nurse [name removed] is very disorganized and unprofessional. I went to the place and requested his medication log and she didn't want to give it to me, gave me all these excuses, I spoke with the director [name removed] and got meds list and log. They had wrong timing for a couple meds. [name removed] said they were going to fix it on their system and email me a copy. Well she never did, I emailed her and also texted [name removed], and they both ignored me. So, yes, the director [name removed] is also very unprofessional and careless. They also lied one time when they gave my dad his meds at the wrong time and they said they didn't, but we had a camera in his room so we knew they were lying. [name removed], one of the medical techs was also a mess and was rude to my dad many times. If you truly care about your loved one please find another place for them.

Bad experience

Our LO was in the assisted living facility for a couple of months until we decided to take him out due to several mistakes, from his nutritional plan to his medications (dosages and times). The staff seems very disorganized, there is a lack of communication, they blame each other, there is no accountability. From the nurse, med techs, front desk etc. I would never recommend this place to anyone, they can’t be trusted.

A good provider of respite care

My husband was there for a four day respite stay and they were fine. The staff were good and took care of him. They administered his medications. He seemed to enjoy his stay there. The food was good. The appearance of the community was good and the rooms was fine. It was close to our home, family, and friends. The other residents that lived there seemed happy and pleased.

We Recommend The Ivy for your loved ones

I cannot say enough good things about this facility . My sister has been a resident in assisted living since August 2019 .. To say it was easy for her to leave her home is impossible.. But the care and love she is receiving is so wonderful .. The staff from the administration to the dining room help are great .. we have come to know all of them and feel they are a part of our family .. [Name removed] is doing so good under their care and their love for her .. and her love for them grows stronger each day !! She realizes the challenges they face each day !! We had our concerns when there was a change in owners .. but I can honestly say the transition has been remarkable.. To have so many individuals in one place who are there for the residents is awesome .. Thank you to all of the staff for your dedication in keeping the residents safe during this pandemic .. we know what you have been through to obtain their safety .. you are appreciated more than you will ever know !! God Bless you all !!

Wonderful staff

We recently moved our mom into The Ivy of McKinney and could not be happier. The staff is wonderful-very caring and professional. The apartments are very comfortable and accommodating. Everyone we have dealt with has been very friendly and helpful. Our mom loves it and she is a hard sell! We now have peace of mind!

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Texas regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Texas regulations for Assisted Living.
