I saw The Elms Retirement Residence. They have two buildings connected by a walkway structure. The inside of the place was impressive and the location was very close to Wilcox Park, which was a superior Park. The staff was all smiles, and very helpful. The rooms were very nice. I think I saw three or two different apartments and a studio. It's a mansion, and in a way, to me, it's the nicest place because of Wilcox Park.

The Elms Retirement Residence was a very nice place, but it was not quite what we wanted. It was more like apartment rentals rather than assisted living. We felt we needed more assisted living than they were offering. We wanted to make sure that we had assistance available even if we needed to pay for it and even if nurses were around. It wasn't enough for us. I didn't know they had assisted living. The people were so nice and the person during the tour was a wonderful and absolutely marvelous person. I couldn't have asked for anybody better than her. She was very helpful and just as pleasant and as nice as could be. We were very fond of her. The address puts you in the front of the building, but you have to really go around the block a couple of streets to get into the back where you can park. We didn't meet any other staff members other than Julie. My husband insists on having two bedrooms and I don't believe that they have two bedrooms and two baths or even two bedrooms. The facilities were not up to what we wanted or what my husband wanted.

The Elms was very nice. However, when we were there, the people weren't very active, yet they weren't unhappy about it. They didn't look sullen there; they looked happy. Basically, their accommodation, though, was simply a large room. You could have a bedroom in the living area in the room. It didn't have any kitchen facility, but it had a place where you can put a microwave and a refrigerator. There was a bathroom with it. The staff was very pleasant. They seemed to know the people well.

My cousin in New York had discovered The Elms Retirement Residence. I went to visit and I was really impressed and I thought what a good fit it would be for my mom. It was just wonderful. Everything about it just seemed so right. The staff was alert, interested, and engaged. The residents there are just like my mom. They were older, fragile but not needing nursing care, and they were very intelligent women who had lived full lives and so I thought this would be ideal for my mom.
She gets three wonderful meals a day, they provide laundry services, they clean her room once a week. And if she's late for a meal they call right away to see where she is. They have so many interesting activities the whole week, and she goes to everything. My mother is 89. They do yoga, movies on the weekend, she gets her hair and nails done, they will bring her to doctor's appointment, and there's once or twice a week excursion. It's like a high-end hotel. And everyone is in sort of vacation.
