Stafford Suites Senior Living

This community is great they went above and beyond to take care of the residence and the staff truly cares. I would recommend this community to everyboday. The is the best community in the area.

There is so much to like. It is an intimately-sized community so the residents and the staff all know each other. The staff calls the residents by name and treats them as mature adults, not like half-witted children (I know that you know what I am talkin' about if you have ever been in a facility of older people!). The meals are not regimented by time or "meal of the day." Instead, the dining room is open all day, there are rotated specials for each meal but the residents can order off the menu or get substitutes. … and the food is GOOD! It is not the softened-down, flavorless "stuff" that is too typical of homes for mature people. The wait staff knows each resident's favorites and proactively brings those foods/drinks to their table.... and there is an ice cream social every Sunday that residents and visitors can enjoy together. Sittercize is every morning. Van rides to local places of interest are every Monday. Residents join for board games and other activities every evening. The beauty shop is open on Fridays and Saturdays. Various faith groups come in for religious services but no one is pushed to be part of something that is not in their comfort zone. The medical staff hands out medications so residents don't "forget" or "remember twice" to take their meds. The apartments are spacious and well-cared for. Most have nice views of the outside world. Free cable service. Locked individual mail boxes. Van transportation to doctors' appts one or two days a week. For active adults, the Kent Senior Center is just down the street and Kent Station is about 4 or 5 blocks away. Each resident has a "panic button" so help is just a few minutes away. The "panic button" isn't jus for emergencies; it can also be used to call someone to help the resident get to an activity on time or to adjust the thermostat or TV. .. The people who work there seem to genuinely enjoy their jobs and they are all good at what they do. They are also good at communicating with family members if they feel that something is right with a resident. This is DEFINITELY NOT the place that your folks feared they would end up in when they couldn't live alone anymore and it is not the kind of place that makes you feel guilty about your choice.

A very warm, comfortable, friendly, place to live with good help and care. There are many opportunities for socializing, and enjoyment. Happy to be here!
