I lived at Alta Ridge [dates removed]

During my stay the food was prepared by chef, and it was excellent. We had some fun activities. The Olympics was my favorite. I really enjoyed playing cards with the activities director and my friends. The activities were more simple, as many of the residents have difficulty using their hands. I prefer more advanced crafts (I was not satisfied with the activities, because of that) I made many good friends at Alta Ridge.

Transitions are hard

When we initially toured the facility, everything seemed great. But by the time we were moving in a week later, we could see that there were some noticeable problems—like a broken AC system throughout the facility. In a few days it was fixed, but other changes became clear—most notably, the food. All of these differences were tied to new ownership. The nice food and full dining room we saw initially was replaced by very bland food. And the list of 8 or so options (for the times the resident didn’t want the main meal) were gone. In time, many of the staff members had been replaced. It was a dramatic change. We expressed our concerns. I think there have been a couple of alternatives offered at mealtime now, which has made a difference in my family member’s comfort there. I am hopeful that things will improve as the transition continues.

Cheap food

Alta Ridge used to be very nice until a corporate takeover. Now the food budget is bare bones and while the cooks are good, the meals are mostly packaged frozen stuff like corn dogs, chicken nuggets and tater tots. I hear the equipment is also bare bones and broken. Dont come for the food.

I toured this community. It was alittle smaller then what we were looking for. The staff was very nice and answered all the questions we had. My parents wanted a homie enviroment. This is good care and great staff to assist needs for loved ones.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Utah regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Utah regulations for Assisted Living.
