My husband was in Maple Ridge Health and Rehabilitation Center. I was with him quite a bit. I thought they were good, but my husband was a terrible patient. He did not like it there, but he wouldn't have liked it anywhere. They were attentive and kind, even when he was being difficult. You had your choice of meals in the dining room or in your room. The physical therapy came to your room, and they had a physical therapy room, and they worked really well with you. The occupational therapy came to your room and they played games. I thought they were very nice and they did their job very well. At any of those places you're gonna wait a couple of minutes when you push the help button because they got a lot of patients, but it wasn't an outrageous amount of time. Usually, it was about five minutes. You would push the button and then somebody would come. No place is perfect, but they were very good. Their staff was excellent. They had the typical hospital rehab food.

BRIA of Trinity Village was a nice place. We would've considered it except that it was way too big for my mother-in-law. There wasn't a room available within a few doors of the elevator. There were long hallways and some inclines, but it appeared clean. They were friendly, and there were quite a few residents in the lobby when we first got there. The lobby area was nice. The assistant who showed us around was very nice, pleasant, and informative.

I tried unsuccessfully to have my brother admitted to this facility. The person that did the assessments found more reasons not to admit him than reasons why he should move in there. They claimed transportation was the reason as my brother has a late appointment for dialysis. I think they just didn\'t want the responsibility of his care. But he\'s been admitted to another facility that had the same issues about transportation. But unlike Hampton, they worked with my brother to get Transit Plus to transport him inexpensively.

Eastcastle Place used to be called Protestant Home. When you walk in, there's a really beautiful, upscale reception area. The place gets its name because the orginal building looks like a castle, and it's a long-established and expanding community. There are very large apartments that aren't even in the market I'm looking at, but the $3,000 plus range is over-priced and outdated. We saw one of the rooms that probably based on the price-range for one of their prime rooms because it was in a corner. That particular apartment was OK, but it's just the overall feeling, like when you go down the hall. The person showing us around tried to gather information from us, and that was very good.

BRIA of Trinity Village was impressive. It was a nice big place, but it was depressing to me. The apartment looked really clean. I didn't have a car at the time, so I would have had to go and buy groceries (and I would have to go byy bus or walk there), and that I didn't like. It was not in the location where I would like to be. The place was very clean, but there was a smell, which I think was the carpeting. The people that I saw sitting down were all very nice people, they greeted me, and it was more personal. There were people on the computer and other people were talking to each other. The staff member was very knowledgeable and very personal during the tour, and she came across as very proud of her organization that she ran there.
