Wide Search Resulted is Great Place

They are very willing to work with you and your loved one. They are helpful, transparent, and willing to work with you. The staff communication with the family is great. The care they are able to provide includes medication management, bathing, hygiene, and dressing assistance for my loved one. The memory care unit has a smaller ratio of residents right now. They have about 15 residents. The community recently hired an activities director who is doing more activities that are individual or set up with two residents in memory care.

We’ve toured many assisted living facilities in the area. Bethany AvaMere was the best overall for assisted living. Facility is clean, library and laundry room on each floor for residents use. Large picture window in the puzzle room. Large private dinning room for family parties or get togethers. Multi-purpose room with full kitchen for family gatherings. Room options are from studio, one bedroom, 2 bedroom to deluxe two bedrooms. They are large and well laid out. Staff was very friendly on our visit.

Working on improvements.

They are really working on cleaning up the independent cottages (my dad lives in one of them). They are definitely in need of clean up and repair. Nice size for independent living. Food service is delivered daily to cottages. This took some time to get delivery time ironed out but new director was very responsive. My dad seldom if ever goes into main building. This is for assisted and memory care. However, he is welcome there any time. That building just did a big make over and it's very nice.

Clean facility & personable staff

Activities Director truly cares about the residents! She goes above and beyond to get people involved. I wish they had better security. My Dad was opening back doors to let visitors in so they could avoid signing in.

Unhappy Family Member

Management here has been horrible for over a year. I have a family member who resides in their Memory Care unit. They haven't had an Administrator for over a year and it's been a complete disaster. I've complained to the Med Techs and caregivers but it seems like they all feel the same way and not knowing who to ask for help. The food they are served is horrible. I encourage any of you that are interested in this Memory Care to spend at least half the day here and eat the food. You will notice how hard the workers work, how horrible the food is, and how management does not step foot in there. They recently hired an Activities director who does not spend more than 2 hours of the day with the residents. She also picks and chooses who she talks to. An email has been sent to corporate for [name removed]. I will update if she responds. The problem here is management. Not the workers. The staff is wonderful and caring. It's probably the only wonderful thing about this place.

As you know, they're all pretty much, the same Ash specific prices there is some variance in the appearance, and the perhaps the food, I thought the Avamere was at the bottom of that particular range. It was cold and sterile.

Avamere experience

The main reason we chose Avamere at Bethany was because of the fact that they offered all levels of care, independent living, assisted living and memory care as well. Based off of our experience so far, we think that they try the best that they can to do well with what they have.

caring family facility

As an over five year customer, first two seniors and now just one in the memory care unit, I cannot express more just how well well our family has been treated. During a recent hospital stay the memory care director came of his own dedication to his resident to visit, follow up and plan for post hospital care. Other staffers have treated our family member as part of their special family.

An excellent assisted living choice

Love, the staff and feel of Avamere at Bethany. Very welcoming and very 'homey'. The grounds are beautiful and private. Nice views out the Dining Room and rooms. We like the emphasis on Assisted Living for our Mom. She needs the focus and extra care that Avamere appears capable of providing. We had to move Mom quickly and Avamere bent over backwards to work with us and make things happen. They were awesome! The aides are professional, friendly and really on top of things. The food is very good -- not restaurant quality -- but definitely a B! Would like to see more activities available, but understand that this is pretty much driven by the residents. Everything is clean and fresh smelling. We have toured and visited a lot of facilities and believe this is the best choice for Mom.

Clean, nice area for residents. Fresh smelling. Shared room is fine. I would like to take my mom for lunch. Just a little too far from my home but that can be ok if the fit was right.
