Crest View Senior Community at Blaine

Crest View Senior Community at Blaine was very nice and clean. They have very nice management and very nice people. They were friendly. Their floor plan was the best I've seen. Mom is going to move into a corner unit. She will have windows on both sides, not just one. It's a very, very nicely laid out place. I liked it. The staff is very upbeat, too. I saw a little bit of the activities that they're doing. They usually get them to do a couple of things every day.

We toured Crest View Senior Community at Blaine, and this was our favorite. I thought it was an excellent facility. Everything was included. Everything was very clear. The residents that I talked to while I was waiting for our tour guide were all very happy and enjoyed the place. It was very clean and welcoming. It had everything that we wanted for my mom. The staff who assisted us was fabulous and she's been accommodating. Everything was clean and welcoming. It was bright and it seemed homey. All the utilities were included. The pendant alert system, and the satellite or cable TV were included. We didn't have to think about anything else other than a meal plan.

I went to Crest View Senior Living in Blaine and all I saw were very small units. I got information on all of their other places. They were clean and nice. There were some women watching a movie in one of the rooms. I wasn't paying too much attention to the amenities because I'm kind of an a-social person. I've been alone for so long that I entertain myself. It was a nice place and seemed to be well taken care of. I only saw the person inside the door and then the fellow who gave me the tour. They were very friendly and helpful. I didn't have any complaints. They had a library and a game room.

My father moved to the memory care of Crest View Senior Community of Blaine, and our experience so far is not very good, but we’re working on it. Some of the staff members were very nice, but some were very unqualified and mean. In the beginning it was hell because they didn’t know what they were doing, they over drugged my dad, and gave him the wrong medication. There were some kind people there, but there was definitely a disconnect in the nurses’ station as far as what they were supposed to do. We caught the overdose. The building itself is newer; it’s fine. We have a list of activities for the memory care, but we don’t believe they’re doing them. They can improve on activities, communication with the right nurses, and make sure they screen their aides. They have independent living, assisted living, and memory care. My dad was in independent living and recently moved to memory care. They have a beauty shop where my dad can get his toenails done, it’s excellent, and the restaurant where they can eat has good food. Unfortunately, anything that has to do with the hiring is always wrong. For memory care they’re working with us, and we still have things to work out, but I do feel it will get better.

Crest View Senior Community at Blaine is a brand-new community. It's very nice, but the cost is prohibitive. The staff member who showed us around was very nice. They have all kinds of amenities. The room we saw was very nice, it was very light, and there's enough room for what we needed. Their dining room was very clean and bright, the outside of the community is also very nice, and there's plenty of parking. It homey and friendly, and the staff was very nice. The residents were busy eating when we were there. Overall it was nice.
