More Activities
reviewed on: 01/05/2017 by KarolMy mother would really like more activities. I have heard this comment from several of the residents.
really nice place
reviewed on: 03/24/2015 by AnonymousThe Cottages of Boise is a really nice place. Very clean and welcoming, great food, etc. It's a safe and good place for mom to be.
Dad is doing better than ever
reviewed on: 06/11/2015 by AnonymousDad has only been there for 11 days but so far it is excellent. The facility is fresh and clean. The staff all seem to be committed to making Dad feel cared for. The food is great. I personally have eaten a number of meals and they have all been great. Dad is eating better than he has for years. The administration has been great on meeting special needs such as Dad watches the Western Channel. It is currently exceeding our expectations. Son & Daughter.
It's a nice place but taking longer than expected to settle in.
reviewed on: 03/11/2014 by PeggyIt's taking a little more time to get everything settled than I would have hoped. It's a smaller community. The coordination between the community and the VA could be better. The communication to me about what is needed and what is expected to happen could also be improved. They are clean and friendly and have activities. The meals are freshly prepared onsite.
Needs Improvement
reviewed on: 12/12/2017 by AnonymousOverall, I feel that The Cottages as a whole need improvement. The Community is very homey and comfortable. It's nicely decorated, clean, and has a high-end feel. However, I have found that the staff need to keep better contact with residents and families. Sometimes the staff will update me on things, but sometimes I don't hear anything until I ask about it. I don't feel that they have any activities that my loved one is interested. They've said they've tried to form more activities, but I feel their efforts are half hearted. They also do not offer much variety at all during mealtimes, and they don't have any alternative options. If The Cottages made improvements on these items I've suggested, I feel that the general experience would be much, much better.
