Review

Governor's Pointe, located in Mentor, is an assisted living facility that offers a range of care options for residents. One reviewer mentioned that the person who gave them a tour was very nice, although they did note that the hallways were narrow and had many corners, which could be confusing for some. However, despite this minor concern, the rooms were described as nice and equipped with all the necessary amenities. The cleanliness of the facility was also praised, and there were outdoor courts available for recreational activities.

Another individual shared their positive experience with Governor's Pointe, highlighting its long-term care services and various levels of assistance provided. The venue itself was highly regarded as being well-maintained with beautiful gardens. The staff members were described as polite and interactive with residents, offering engaging activities for them to participate in. Family members were even allowed to dine with their loved ones at times, and the food received positive feedback from one reviewer's brother.

The hospice care provided at Governor's Pointe also garnered praise from a reviewer whose sister was receiving end-of-life care there. The staff members were commended for their exceptional level of care and treating their patients like family.

In terms of dining experiences, another reviewer expressed satisfaction with the food served at Governor's Pointe. Their father enjoyed his meals and appreciated having homemade desserts almost daily. The staff members were described as courteous and attentive to their father's needs.

However, it is important to mention that Governor's Pointe is pricier compared to other facilities in the area by approximately $1000 per month. Furthermore, if a resident needs to transition to Medicaid coverage, they would have to leave this facility due to its lack of Medicaid beds. While the venue itself was deemed lovely and well-kept by this particular reviewer, they felt hesitant about recommending it over other options due to the potential limitations on Medicaid coverage and the perception that there may be a higher proportion of residents with dementia.

In conclusion, Governor's Pointe in Mentor offers a clean and pleasant environment with courteous staff members who provide various levels of care for residents. The facility boasts amenities such as beauty salons, common areas for socializing, and engaging activities. While some concerns were raised regarding narrow hallways and potential limitations on Medicaid coverage, overall, the reviewers expressed satisfaction with their experiences at Governor's Pointe.
