A Great Place to Send Your Loved One
reviewed on: 05/26/2021 by Sheila OIt is a great place, the folks are nice. I spoke to the staff and they gave us a video tour before moving my loved one in. They were having an early New Year’s Eve party. The community was helpful in getting my loved one acquainted with the community. They allow us to drop items off at The community wants to know the family to associate with them better.
1st choice
reviewed on: 10/03/2017 by AnonymousThis community would have been a good fit for my brother, we liked that it was a smaller 50 resident setting which would have allowed for more of a one-on-one care. The staff did a great job showing us around taking their time and answering all our questions. Unfortunately, they did not have any availability at the time that we needed it. I would definitely recommend this community.
Review of The Pointe
reviewed on: 10/19/2018 by AnonymousI would love to give 5 stars, but no place is perfect. I would suggest you have three workers in memory care plus the activities director. These folks like to get up when they think they don't need help - they forget. Better pay to keep good care givers - more training to staff about Alzheimer's/dementia, better communication between all in community. Don't leave out the folks in memory care when activities are happening - Yes they can be a challenge but they need this also!
My Sister's Community

The Pointe is Excellent.
reviewed on: 08/29/2017 by Dr. Michael L. JohnsonMy father has been a resident at The Pointe at Kirby Gate since November 2016. His care has been so very good. The staff is friendly and helpful. The Administration is attentive to the needs of families and residents. His care could not be better.
