ST MATTHEWS HOME FOR THE ELDERLY II

Absolutely love this place. My grandma has been here for a couple years and the staff is absolutely amazing. It’s one of the hardest things to have your grandma living somewhere else but home but they make you feel like home there. Thank you for all you do Mountain View and the staff🤗

I must say for myself and any family having to make the tough decision to place your loved one in a facility because it became so overwhelming that it took a toll on your own physical and mental wellbeing then this is the place. I searched and visited many facilities prior to me choosing Mountain View Center. I visited them a couple times and was able to meet the Owner, Coordinators, the caretakers, the cook, all the helpers I just knew that they stood out far beyond any others I went to. First thing that stood out was how immaculate everything was and it smelled so fresh and clean. This was very important for me if my mom going to live here. They gave me a tour of facility and the living quarters where my mom would stay. She has her own bedroom whom she shares with a wonderful roommate. They were very careful about matching mom’s roommate, so they carefully introduced my mom to a few ladies and we found the perfect one. My mom has been her for 3 years and she loves it. They even have a program where a bus picks up the residents that are able, to have fun filled days dancing, singing, doing crafts, then the bus brings them back. They are very involved with many onsite activities. They have lots of parties, holiday parties too, they bring in musicians/bands so they can dance and enjoy, bbqs, dress up..etc. I just had to share my experience with anyone looking for a place for mom or dad. Dementia again has impacted our family, my dear Auntie is suffering with this horrible disease now. I’m so grateful for Mountain View because I know my mom is, safe, well fed, well taken care of with bathing, clean clothes, clean room and bed. Thank you Mountain View 💝

I am very pleased with the care that is being provided to my mother at Mountain View Centers in Claremont. The caregivers are loving and very patient with all the residents there. My mother is always nicely groomed, in clean clothes and her room is always clean and neat. They serve fresh healthy meals that my mother would tell me was delicious. I really appreciate that communication is excellent with everyone whether it be the caregivers, med tech or office manager. The administrator Laura is such a blessing she is very knowledgeable and has been very helpful whenever I had any questions or concerns. I would highly suggest touring MVC if you are considering placement for your loved one especially if there is a need for memory care specializing in Dementia/Alzheimer’s.

Since my loved one arrived at the facility, he has thrived. He is always kept clean and well fed. He receives three nutritious meals and snacks each day; which he loves. Any one who has had a family member with dementia knows how difficult it is. Their behavior changes from time to time. They can be calm and happy one week and can be aggressive the next. They work to try and find medications that help to keep them calm while still being productive. Mountain View Center's staff is always attentive and kind to their residents. They are so patient. I appreciate how they encourage them to be as independent as possible; while staying safe. I visit nearly every day and I am always so happy to see that he is being cared for. It gives me peace of mind having him at Mountain View Centers.

The caretakers at Mountain View go out of their way to really learn about and know each resident - they take extra steps to help each of them move forward at their own individual pace, and do that in a thoughtful and caring way. The facility is spotless and the staff takes extra time to make each room feel bright and cozy. Communication with family members is direct and timely - even through this past 19 months of the pandemic, I have felt that my sister was truly cared for.
