Community Reviews
comfort for all
reviewed on: 04/05/2021 by CTThe staff does a great job and is very energetic. They would list what activities could be done in your room and they would give them a package the next morning. The community had a good plan for covid and kept the residence safe. The community had a barber and a little general store you could buy from. I would recommend this community to others.
Everything Is Going Great
reviewed on: 05/27/2016 by AnonymousMy mom is living at this community and so far she is enjoying herself. The staff respectful, caring, friendly, and always there when she needs help. This community is clean and tidy everywhere. My mom especially loves the roast beef and she requested a low-sodium diet so the dietitian educated Mom on healthy choices. Activities are available, my mom has partake in ice cream social, musical entertainment, and armchair exercise. This is a place for your loved ones to enjoy everyday.
A Pleasant Place to Stay
reviewed on: 10/14/2021 by anonymousI haven't found a better place around. If anybody wanted to go to a place for assisted living, I would highly recommend Elderwood Village at Colonie. It's so easy to get along with everybody there. The food looks delicious. They always have stuff going on. They have a big white board where my loved one can see what's going on every day. And if she's hesitant to participate, the caregivers will say "Come on, let's go try this!" It's the best bang for the buck you can possibly find. We visit about twice a week, and it's very peasant there. There's nothing I can say that's wrong with the place. The only thing that would make the whole thing easier is if I didn't have to fill out the Covid slips when I go in to visit. But I understand the need for them, and I very much appreciate that they're keeping everybody safe.
We would recommend
reviewed on: 04/05/2021 by anonymousThe staff members would be a 10 they were outstanding and the care services were terrific. They were always keeping in touch with us making us aware of everything going on. They would send out constant emails of things they were trying to do, and they did their best with the activities. We were very pleased with them they took very good care of our loved one.
Really routine activities
reviewed on: 08/28/2013 by JimIt was fine here, she had a birthday and decided she wanted to move to Florida. Compared to where she is now this is a lot more expensive and her room was a lot smaller. The activites were the same thing over and over but she was happy here until she decided she wanted to move.
