Sparr Heights Estates Senior Living was very nice. The staff was very professional and talked to us at great length. They have rooms for a single person and for two people in the memory care. It looks like a large square room, and you have to provide your own furniture. The also have a side glass door that opens up to an enclosed patio. The atmosphere was very warm. It was new, decorated well, homey and clean. They have different rooms that residents could go to, such as a media room where they could watch television.

My wife stayed at Sparr Heights Estates Senior Living for respite care. She was in the memory care section because that's all they had available, but they allowed her free reign. Her level of care was a little bit higher. I like the very quick response and interaction of the people there and the staff, and their professionalism. The cleanliness is just above board. In the dining room, they put out the menu for each meal on each table, and then the resident gets to select what they want from the menu each day. Then they publish the menu for the week on a big board where you come into the dining room. Their level of activities is quite good given that it's a single building complex. It doesn't have any external grounds that I know of, but they have a big inside patio where they have plants and flowers. It is a growing station so that the residents there can come out and water the plants; they can grow plants. My wife's room was right on the patio with a sliding glass door, so she had access to go out onto the patio and sit any time she wanted in the garden-like atmosphere. Their staff was excellent, they were outstanding. I had an early dinner with my wife when I was out there. The kitchen staff, and the dining room supervisor, were all just great. The food was awesome. I don't know how much better to say it, my wife enjoyed that. The only problem my wife has with some of these senior care facilities is many of the people are not as engaged mentally as she is. My wife's a writer, so she still reads and writes poetry. She doesn't think she's old. The facility probably looks a little better than some of the places I have been into. It looks like a big apartment complex, but it's very well kept. They have a nice ramp next to the entry, as well as stairs. They've got automatic doors. You're greeted, and you go in. The office is immediately in front of you. The activities director worked with us quite a bit when we were there. They set up a poetry reading for my wife. My wife took one of her main poetry books with her. They have a lot of activities. They do well for what they have. I think the value for money is excellent.

I liked it. I liked the amenities, and I thought that my mom would be in good hands if she had to go there. They had a library. The room was OK. The staff was very nice and very friendly. They had transportation. It was a very lovely facility.
