9 Memory Care Communities in Springfield, Missouri

The food here is terrible! My dad asks me to bring him dinner because he can\'t eat what they serve, nor does he get what he ordered. Air conditioning units in the rooms are loud and make it hard to sleep. They promised us that the room would be cleaned before he moved in, but a minimal amount was done. They could have at least cleaned the carpet.

We visited The Cambridge for my mom. It was very similar to the one facility we looked at, and when we were looking at it it was more expensive than that other one. It was fine. The one we looked at was a one-bedroom and it was similar to the other one, but slightly smaller. We were visiting a friend that lived there. At the time, the place seemed to be well maintained. We saw the dining area and it seemed very nice. I did not inspect every portion of The Cambridge, like I did with the other facility, because we were looking for an entirely different situation. It was just that when I looked there, theirs was just more expensive, and I did not want to go there.

We visited The Montclair for my mom. It was really nice, but it was more expensive than what we're looking for an independent living place. The apartments were very large, very open, and well-lit. They were beautiful. The staff was very friendly. It was one that I just kind of dismissed because of the cost, but it seemed extremely clean, and well maintained. The staff were nothing but friendly and helpful.

We signed my father to The Cambridge, and we plan to move him there shortly. My wife and I saw the rooms, and it's a very nice facility. The staff is very friendly, they're more open to the COVID restrictions in terms of allowing these senior citizens to live a little bit more. That's what convinced us to go there. We saw the one-bedroom, that's what we're interested in. It's a three room with a kitchenette, they're very nice, and a very good price. They're doing the best they can, they have a welcoming committee actually too, folks dedicated within the community to welcome new folks. I know it's a little harder with COVID, 'cause my dad will be in light quarantine when he first gets there, but they seem to be working very hard to integrate new people into the community. We saw the dining facilities, they stagger them because of COVID, they serve breakfast in their rooms, then they have lunch and dinner downstairs. It looked spacious, and it looked like it would get the job done; they have to be spacious for people to spread out. I'm thinking they'll have two people per table at max.

My mother is currently at The Cambridge in Springfield and everything is working out really well. So far, she is pleased. I like her apartment, it's all she needs. Her last one was bigger than that, but I really think this one's cozy. She's got a very small kitchen, a living room, a bedroom, and a bathroom. There's a linen closet, a coat closet, and big closet in her bedroom. The staff is very, very friendly. My mom can't do anything, but they have an exercise room and they play games out in the front.
