It is all positive. My mother-in-law was only in there for about a week before she died, so it was a very short stay. It turned out it has nothing to do with their care. Their care was excellent, but she was 95. The only negative thing thing I would say about Farmington Square is that is cost about $6000 to have her there for a week. There were two reasons for [removed] You are required to pay for two weeks at least, and they charged $2000 as a move in fee and that was not refundable. But as far as their care I have absolutely no qualms. They took excellent care. The nurses that were there were very easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. When we came to Farmington Square, we needed to place my mother-in-law the same day, and they accommodated us with no problems.

That's one that I would probably move her to if I had to move my mom. I would have to immediately put down a deposit on my mom's cats - I understand that. I would pay a good amount so she could keep her cats. There was one lady there, Diane, who was very very nice. I only met a few other people very briefly but they seem very nice too. Diane was very caring and calling me and stuff like that. I understand that they're trying to fill rooms but she was such a very very nice person that I would definitely consider them.

It was one of the only facilities that we found that provided an assisted living environment and also had the extra care that my mom needed at the time, coming out of a nursing home. That worked really well for us and she's gotten better since she's been there. That was the number one plus for us. We thought she was not going to thrive in that enviroment because she was reclusive but she's done really well. She's bonded with some of the caregivers there and the activities director is like her favorite person. The food is very good; she's gained weight and gotten very healthy. We're very, very pleased.

This was a great place with a caring staff and tight knit community. The room was a bit smaller than we were wanting for our Dad.

Older facililty so not designed per se for memory care - POA will suffice - probably be in Diamond House which is moderate to severe - could step up to transitions if conditions get under control. Normally requires 18 months private pay but has dropped that down to 12 months. Asked about 9 months possible before medicaid kicks in - would need to have approval.

Older facility. Clean. Preparing for a remodel which I know would upset my mom. Like concept of care and felt comfortable there.

A beautifuyl area but it was too far from the city for our retirement living lifestyle.

Another very good option. Also willing to work with me on pricing while I work on the veterans benefits.

I would recommend this place for your loved one or a friend. All care staff are very friendly and helpful. Care staff care about each individuals needs and likes. They also have smiles. Everyone goes above and beyond to ensure residents are in a safe caring environment.

The people at the "front" desk are friendly and hospitable. The staff is very helpful. What the Sequoia does is a hard job and what we pay for it I'm pleased. My mom is happy and that is the most important thing.

I toured this facility while looking for a place for my friend. The building itself looked nice and clean but not as clean as some of the other places I toured. The person who gave me the tour seemed to be very friendly and knowledgeable. I took about an hour to tour and they seemed to be very positive that my friend would fit in and they would be able to work with him having a feeding tube. I ended up putting a deposit down and I found it to be unbelievable that the next day I received an email stating they wouldn’t be able to accept a feeding tube resident. This would be the last facility I would recommend to other families.

I toured Sweetbriar while looking for options for my mother. At the time, we were looking for assisted living, and found Sweetbriar to be very nice. It was a little bit smaller than some other places we looked though. Soon after touring, we found that my mother needed memory care, so even though Sweetbriar was a lovely community, we chose another place that would better suit our needs.

I looked at Farmington while exploring assisted living options for my mother. The place was nice, but it should be noted that the facility only has one floor of living. My mother needs to be above the first floor for safety, security, and for her own personal comfort. Even though we did like the place, we knew my mother would not be comfortable there because of the one floor living situation.

This is a nice smaller community. The staff we met during our tour were nice and knowledgable. The community seemed clean. This community was a little farther away than I was looking for.

Farmington Square at Gresham overall went well. Any time I was there, their staff were pretty attentive. They accommodated him. He was kind of difficult so they moved him to a different room so he wouldn't alarm to other residents. I think they took pretty good care of him.

This community is fine. My loved one does complain about the food choices and taste of the food. She does not participate in any of the activities so I cannot rate this aspect of the property. My loved one is very hard to please and would not be happy no matter where she is. She is abusive and does quite a bit of complaining. Overall the community is clean, friendly and does a good job with their care services.

My loved one stayed at this facility for a time, but although they say there are a memory care community she was eventually kicked out for "behavioral issues". Despite that I think they do a good job overall here, at least in terms of the care they provide. The aides and care staff are all wonderful, very friendly and caring people. I think the problem we had was mostly due to the management staff.

The care depends on the day. Sometimes it's a five and sometimes it's a three. The activities are great but my mom can't do them so that doesn't matter so much to us. They told us they could offer more personal and up close care and a lot of the time they do but sometimes things happen like yesterday I went over there and her shirt hadn't been changed in over a day. We pushed the button twice to get someone to change her depends. Finally we had to go find someone which is something she can't do on her own. Like all these places there are some wonderful wonderful people there and there are sometimes that people slip through the cracks because they really need someone there all the time to advocate for them. Overall we've been much more satisfied with their ability to provide for her level of care that the last place she was but every once in a while something like that will happen, which I don't think it should.

It's beautiful but very bustley. They have independent living all the ways to assisted care but the independent side is very busy. It's a much bigger place so there are more residents and so it's much busier.

The Village is clean and the staff are friendly. My mother had a couple of problems and the staff was quick to address them in quickly and efficiently. They are in the mid range 2,000 to 3,000 depending on level of care but are well worth it if you have the money and want a nice place for your family.
