Payment and reimbursements draw complaints
Multiple reviews describe late payments or missing reimbursements.
Many reviewers report problems getting expenses reimbursed and payments processed on time, including unpaid expense reports and reimbursements not completed after approval. Several also describe payroll issues such as missing checks, changes to timesheet submission, or shortened/incorrect pay. A few connect these issues to major disruptions, like an ADT service being cut off.

Contact and follow-through are criticized
Residents and families report difficulty reaching help and getting updates.
Several reviews complain that calls are not answered, responses are delayed, or messages go unanswered, including accounts of long hold times. Others describe customer service problems such as being hung up on or getting unclear explanations for issues like payroll paperwork. One reviewer also mentions an app that prevents basic logging in and out, which compounds frustration with coordination.
caveat2 reviews mention this
Care may not fit every situation
Some reviews say their needs and family setup werenât accommodated.
A reviewer describing care needs for a disabled child urges families to switch providers, specifically because reimbursements and coordination were not working the way they expected. Another review from a wheelchair user with complex physical support needs says the arrangement changed in a way that felt at odds with their goals for going out and keeping children involved. Taken together, the feedback suggests fit and consistency may vary for more complex situations.

Assisted living in 2025 offers a crucial balance of independence and support for seniors, with costs varying from $2,500 to over $7,000 per month based on factors such as location and care level. Understanding pricing complexities, including regional differences and potential hidden fees, is essential for families to plan financially while ensuring quality care for their loved ones.
The guide outlines the complexities of Medicaid coverage for assisted living, highlighting significant state-to-state variations, limited coverage often restricted to personal care services, and the existence of specialized waivers for certain needs like memory care. It advises families to consult local Medicaid offices for options while emphasizing the importance of understanding state-specific regulations and facility policies.
Medicaid coverage for assisted living varies by state and is primarily available to low-income individuals, with eligibility dependent on strict income and asset limits. Some states offer HCBS waivers for specific services in assisted living, but families must generally cover room and board costs, and should verify facility acceptance of Medicaid while considering potential waiting lists.
