My mother was a resident of Linden ponds for over 6 years- from 2018 until she passed in 2024. She eventually experienced every “level”, beginning with her independent living one-bedroom apartment to memory care in Rose Court. Her apartment was in a good location with a nice wooded view. She very much enjoyed the different excursions and made some new friends. There were many, many clubs to join, and the dining rooms and food service were really quite good! (I joined her for many meals and can personally attest to this) Covid was rough, but we appreciated how the staff did their best to keep everyone healthy while allowing residents some autonomy and freedom (residents were able to leave, but no guests could enter). As her cognitive abilities declined, she moved to Assisted Living in Rose Court, and then finally to Memory Care. Staff were lovely, and they took very good care of her. At these care levels, the monthly cost was quite substantial ($22,000 by the end), but we were reassured by the LP model that nothing changes even if a resident has run through their assets. This hadn’t happened by the time of her death, and we received her refund within the time period we’d initially been promised.
