Belmont Village Senior Living Hunters Creek

I was recently telling a friend about my mother's time at Belmont, and realized I had never written a review! My mother lives here from 2018-2020 and it was wonderful for her. She had the l phase of Alzheimer's but was still very high functioning. The Circle of Friends program was perfect for her. She had a schedule with a class, music, exercise. She really did make friends in the "circle.". We loved to sit in the little garden together when I visited her. I watched her go from being fearful, quiet, and ashamed of her Alzheimers symptoms, to the confident, happy, extroverted woman she had been. They had wonderful enrichment events, like children's choirs coming into sing, and dogs from the shelter coming in for pets (my mom always told me about those dogs!) There were tea parties and birthday cakes. They even put together a celebration of Mama's life- the family contributed pictures and background, and we all attended for her special celebration slideshow. I also appreciated that she had regular cognitive tests, her medications were handled with no problems, and I could have talks with staff about her disease, especially what to expect and how to best communicate with someone with Alzheimer's. We only left because I had to move and we wanted Mama to be near family. If your loved one is at Belmont or ANY assisted living place, I recommend living in the same city so you can check on them, because it's a big place with a fair amount of staff turnover, and it's just common sense to do that. But overall the "pals" (caretaking staff) were just lovely. I am so happy that Mama could be at Belmont. Alzheimers is a terrible disease but it doesn't have to be all bad. My mother was happy here.

Everybody was so caring there. My dad had struggled so long with his disabilities as he refused any help at all in his old assisted living facility as it unfortunately was not run very well. The care staff at Belmont really tried hard to meet his expectations. He even participated in a few of the activities, which was amazing. It was more expensive than what he had been paying but the old saying you get what you pay for was very evident at Belmont. Food was very good and that made him much happier. It was sad that he passed away so suddenly. So for the short time that he was there, he was pretty comfortable and satisfied.
