for The Polaris Community","reviewContent":"Staff is extremely friendly. They truly care about the residents. They have various activities, like cards, dominoes, movies, etc and you can sign up for outside group lunches. There are extremely friendly people that live there & look out for each other. Food is good, but they don't have specific food for specific needs i.e. diabetic diet but I heard they have hired a dietitian. ","reviewerDisplayName":" BG","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Our family experience has been enjoyable and we would highly recommend the community for residents that want.....","reviewContent":"My father is living at the community and I am very happy. It makes me feel relaxed to know where he is and that he's being taken care of! I did not do all 5s because my father feels lonely. Which I think is an issue he has not that the staff can help. I wish their were more activities he was interested in but I'm not sure if he voiced what he enjoys. But they definitely have a variety! The meals are decent it's helped him get in better shape! I know they need to please the masses so having common foods is most likely best but maybe more options would be good but I think they do a great job preparing what they provide. The price is okay. He is definitely getting a good deal based off living alone and it takes care of the stress of him being independent but helping him achieve his needs. The year price change was bumped up by [fee removed] a month as well as going to yearly leases instead of month to month.\n\nI am still very happy with our choice and wouldn't change it. I appreciate a place for mom finding it for us. Thank you!\n\n\nOur family experience has been enjoyable and we would highly recommend the community for residents that want independent living but also need basic assistance!","reviewerDisplayName":"Marsi ","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Highly Recommended","reviewContent":"I would recommend The Polaris Community due to the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. As an independent living facility, the apartments are very nice and quite large. There are plenty of daily and weekend activities to participate in. I haven't eaten there, but the food served always smells amazing. Remember this is not an assisted living complex, so there are not nurses on hand. However, if you need to travel, say for business, just let the front office know and the staff will check on your loved one and report back if requested. The complex atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxed. If your loved one has a dog, just note that there is not an outside dog park. Other than that, I highly recommend the complex.","reviewerDisplayName":"Carolyn","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Would highly recommend ","reviewContent":"A fantastic independent living facility. Clean, accessible, great staff, excellent dining facility. Honestly, it was the nicest, most affordable place we looked at. We are eternally grateful to A Place for Mom for directing us there.","reviewerDisplayName":"Anonymous","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Recommended","reviewContent":"The staff is very attentive. Housekeeping = apartments are surface cleaned twice a month. Heavy cleaning must be hired from commercial cleaners from outside. \nCommunication with families is done for emergencies. Move in was done by private movers and family. There are many activities available, plus a committee of residents that have a lot of say on what is planned. I am very happy to be living at Polaris Community.","reviewerDisplayName":"David G","experienceTypeId":1,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a current/former resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Great Staff and Excellent Programming","reviewContent":"I’ve lived at Polaris Community for over a year now and I’m very happy. The building is new and modern. We have great staff and excellent programming, both in-house and out in the community. I’ve also made some great new friends here at Polaris Community. ","reviewerDisplayName":"Marc M","experienceTypeId":1,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a current/former resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Our families experience has been wonderful at the Polaris community...could be a starter","reviewContent":"Cleanliness - sometimes trash is not picked up in trash room for a couple days. When it comes to the activities there is always stuff going on, whether it's movies, card games, workouts. The food is great, her neighbors are very friendly. She loves that they are pet friendly. The food staff all know her & are exceptionally friendly. \n","reviewerDisplayName":"Becki ","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"a very welcoming community from staff, residents, atmosphere. It's safe independent living with help, and support ","reviewContent":"I personally love everything about it. I know that my father is safe, taken care of fed, and for a great price. My dad expresses that he is bored, lonely, and that there aren't a lot of diabetic meals, and the portion sizes are small. But he also does not communicate well. And I don't think he's trying to make friends yet. So I believe that if he told a staff member they would quickly resolve any concerns he has. The staff is absolutely amazing my father was in an awful spot when he moved in and the staff and residents helped furnish his home and bought him clothes. The only reason I put 4s were because since I don't live there everyday or visit often I don't want to over rate. But I am truly impressed! I am very grateful for [name removed] for helping me find this place and would recommend it to any one looking for a independent senior living community.\n\nA place for mom is a wonderful organization that is amazing and just as helpful, welcoming, and professional as the community they provided! It was definitely an experience that I would expect for gladly pay for but it cost nothing!\n","reviewerDisplayName":"Marsi ","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Would Definitely Recommend","reviewContent":"So far my parents have had a good experience. The Polaris seems to have a lot of turnover in staff, but that is probably due to the crap economy in the US. The meals are very good from what I hear and the price seems to be very reasonable. We have had a very good experience. Good management, and it is a really nice facility. ","reviewerDisplayName":"Brian ","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Happy Resident","reviewContent":"I'm currently a resident at The Polaris Community and everything has been great at this facility. One concern though, is that there is no Assisted Living at this building. Also, there are no administrators or maintenance workers in the building from Friday PM to Monday AM. Overall, things are very good. I toured this facility three times before moving here. I always felt that my questions were answered and that my family that accompanied me was made to feel welcome. The friendliness and staff are great. I would recommend this facility to family and friends.
