What Families Think

An automated summary of family reviews and public information. Not verified by MyLivingChoice; confirm services, staffing and pricing with the community.

Most reviewers describe Grand Regency of South Shore (formerly Coles Supportive Living) as a warm, clean, family-like community with friendly staff and good food, and several long-time visitors and even a resident of 7 months speak highly of daily life there. However, a handful of reviews raise serious concerns about staffing, communication, and one detailed account of a resident's fall and subsequent care dispute, so families should ask pointed questions about staffing levels and incident protocols before moving in.

  • Facility consistently called clean and well-kept
  • Dietary/food service praised by multiple reviewers
  • On-site independent specialists (physician, dentist, podiatrist, psychiatrist)
  • Long-tenured staff, including one reviewer with 11 years there
  • Active social calendar with holiday events and community bashes

What reviewers flag

Bridging the Gap

The Grand Regency is a senior living community that bridges the gap between independent living and nursing home care. Supportive living is an alternative level of quality housing appropriate for many seniors who choose not to live alone. At Grand Regency, we will create a service plan for each resident upon admission. The service plan is updated regularly to assure that the resident receives the appropriate care according to his or her needs and preferences.

It is our goal for all area seniors to take advantage of the full range of services available. If continuing care needs evolve to include a higher level of nursing services and relocation is imminent, our trained professionals will be there to assist with the transition.

Residents will have the opportunity to:

•    Live in a private apartment featuring a kitchenette, spacious bathroom, and emergency alert system.
•    Receive personal assistance with Activities of Daily Living like bathing, getting dressed, hygiene, etc., and assistance with medications.

The staff including the management are very unprofessional. We treated one of their residents and his transportation back to their facility had him waiting over 2 hours. When we called Regency to inform them they were very careless and were annoyed that we kept calling and one of the staff hung up on us. I can only imagine how they treat their residents. Despicable!
