We've chosen Sodalis Deer Park. The place is beautiful, very clean, and very friendly. The staff was well informed. I liked the amenities. It seems like a really good fit for our dad. We did get a look at the menu, and they showed us an example of the menu, but we did not sample it. We are planning that in the weeks to come to take him and have a lunch date there. We're also planning to go and maybe do either bingo or a movie night so he can kind of interact with others just to make sure it is the right fit. It looks like they had some arts and crafts stuff. They had some music. They have guest speakers that come out. It seems pretty active. She did mention they take some off-site trips like they'll go out to have dinner once a month, and sometimes the schools put on shows. They might go see the show or something like that. Everything was just what we needed. We looked at the larger single, as well as a studio single. The studio is more fitting for what we need. We didn't need the extra space. But the restrooms are really large with the safety feature, you just kind of step in and you don't have to step over a tub or anything. All the handrails are in place, a lot of closet space, but it was nice that they provided a refrigerator, which was unexpected. This looks like it would be a nice place for him to call home. The staff was all smiles, very friendly, very helpful, and answered all of our questions. She gave me her cell phone number if I needed anything. And she lives close by but was very compassionate because she'd been through the same thing with her own father. They did a great job. I like the fact that in addition to the regular dining area, they also have, like, a private dining room. So if you want to have a family gathering, you have a space to do that, and they don't charge you extra for it. The price was right too, it's not as expensive as some, a little bit more than others, but it just looks like it's going to be worth it. It has a better value.

Sodalis Deer Park was a beautiful community. It has not been open very long, and so it was very well kept. The food smelt delicious. I toured both the assisted living and memory care and I think it was a little more upscale than some of the other places. It had that kind of vibe to it. The staff was very wonderful. They were very nice, very knowledgeable about their complex, and very helpful. They gave lots of good information and they could accommodate what we were needing for my mother. They had a gym, lounging areas for families to gather or that you could reserve, and a bar for happy hour. The dining area was very elegant and very nice. It felt like you were going out to a nice steak house dinner. It was first-class.
