My grandmother has moved into the Grande Regency of Peoria. It's a very good facility. They have nice apartments. They've got a 24-hour on-call nurse. They have maintenance staff that can do quite a bit of stuff for you, and they have a bistro-style lunch, dinner, and breakfast that my grandmother's been loving. She's kind of in between assisted living and independent living. She needs some assistance, but she doesn't need a lot yet. We picked this one because they have those different levels of care and the on-call nurse thing. Their nurses can assist with any of the normal daily activities that you need help with. It works out well. They can assist with putting shoes on. My grandmother doesn't need that, but she does need assistance with cleaning and things, and they have housekeeping and they do laundry. They come in and do laundry once a week. They take your trash out for you every day, and they come in once a week to do cleaning for you as well. We were able to see quite a bit of what they have there, as well as what they have in the way of amenities there without intruding on other people's care and time, and personal information. We were able to see the lunchroom area. They have nutritionists and chefs on staff. They have housekeeping, laundry, a spa room, and they have a podiatrist every once a month to do foot care and nails if you can't do your toenails. They have a lot of stuff in the building. However, they do have to use elevators to get to the different levels for things, which is understandable. They took an older building and renovated it and turned it into an assisted living facility. It used to be a German restaurant at one point and a hotel. It's all got the original woodwork from that, too. They worked with my grandmother a lot to get her in there as quickly as they could. She likes their cooking, so I would say their food is good. She has not participated in activities yet because they do have a two-week quarantine period if you haven't had the vaccine. They work with Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. They have a program where if you can get qualified through Medicaid, with it, your income dictates how much you pay in rent. They take most of your Social Security money. They leave you with $90 of spending money a month. We're not paying out-of-pocket for her to be living there, and she still has the money to be able to spend on herself. They had some residents on the level that she was on, which had oxygen in the room. Because they have nurses on staff, they do quite a bit in the way of care and they can handle quite a bit. I'm thinking that once it gets to the point where you're bedridden and you can't get up and do some of the things, then it's where they would probably have to have you move into a nursing home. If you can still do some things for yourself, then they work with you.

No variety of fresh fruits or vegetables. Little variety of meal options no matter if breakfast, lunch or dinner. Very small meals for my father, and no leftovers. However, the staff helps themselves to each meal. Sometimes they take bags of food when they leave.

Courtyard Estates of Canton was a nice building full of old heavy dark woodwork and stairs. I didn't see much enthusiasm among the residents when they went to lunch. They just came in and seemed to be sitting with the same people that they always sit with and there was not much conversation. They were all very quiet and subdued. They have speakers and entertainers come in, games, videos that the residents watch, a piano, and a room with tables so residents can eat with their family. There's also a small kitchen that can be used. The staff was nice and welcoming, but they weren't very engaging. I was not impressed with the food. However, there were options that you could request.

Courtyard Estates was nice, but it's an old hotel and the rooms weren't as nice as the other ones I've seen. I noticed that the one we went into needed new carpet and to be painted, and there was very little closet space. The outside of the building was very pretty, but it was in the area that I really don’t care for. They have bingo, a small theater, and people who come in to put on programs.

Courtyard Estates was very nice. The dining room was on one floor, and the apartments were on the second and third floor. For somebody really ambulatory, it would be just fine, but it might be a stretch for somebody who is disabled. The staff seemed to be fine.
