Review

Cherry Blossom, a senior living community, has received mixed reviews from visitors and family members of residents. One recurring issue mentioned in the reviews is the lack of proper care and attention given to residents. One user shares that their loved one needed frequent movement but was denied due to concerns about potential back injuries for the staff. Additionally, scheduling visits through the provided 1-800 number proved to be frustrating and unreliable.

Another concern expressed by a different reviewer was the dismissal of their loved one's pain levels. Staff allegedly believed the resident was faking it until it was discovered that an underlying medical issue in the lower bowel was causing the pain. On a positive note, the night staff received compliments for being sweet and kind towards residents.

In terms of staffing, there were complaints about not having enough workers to adequately care for their loved ones. This shortage of personnel resulted in subpar service and left these individuals dissatisfied with Cherry Blossom as a community choice for their family members.

Despite some negative experiences, other reviewers did find positives at Cherry Blossom. One person shared that their loved one with dementia experienced difficulty adjusting to a new routine but seemed to be adapting well after moving there. The presence of other residents who interacted with and talked to their family member made them comfortable. The property itself was spacious and allowed for outdoor visits as well as private indoor visits.

A highlight from another visitor's perspective was how caregivers handled personal belongings like clothes sent to their relative. They appreciated being informed that the clothes would be washed before use, displaying a level of care and attention. However, they did mention having to remind staff about charging their loved one's cell phone regularly, which is essential for someone with dementia who may not remember such tasks.

One reviewer praised Cherry Blossom's director for recommending the community specifically based on their parent's needs and seeing positive results in terms of physical appearance and stability of dementia symptoms. Communication with the director through a text line was responsive and helpful.

On the flip side, another visitor's experience was marred by misrepresentation of room arrangements. They were shown one room initially but later coerced into sharing a room with another resident without prior agreement or consideration. The lack of activities and unpalatable food further contributed to their overall dissatisfaction.

In conclusion, while some individuals had positive experiences at Cherry Blossom, including adjustments for residents with dementia and caring staff, negative aspects such as inadequate care, unreliable scheduling, room changes without notice, and subpar amenities were also reported. Prospective residents and their families are advised to carefully consider these reviews before making a decision about choosing Cherry Blossom as a senior living community for their loved ones.
