Waiting for help

“My mother was there for 5 months. I live in Jersey, so I would call once or twice a week to check on her. I got one returned call. No one reached out and then they tried to block my other sister from seeing her. Not a great place. And no call to let us know she was failing and then died.”

“Very rude service!! They either do not answer or answer and hang up on you!! If I could leave negative stars I definitely would!!”

★☆☆☆☆ · 2026-04-14 · Shavano Park Senior Living · source

“We had the worst experience with memory care at Spring Mill. It looks beautiful but they do not take care of their residents! My dad was never shaved, always in someone else’s clothes, and always sleeping! There are no activities to help the residents engage. It is very hard to get in touch with staff members and they are less than willing to help you. Please do not send your loved ones there if you truly love them!”

“The evening supervisor Jewel is very rude and need to learn better people skills. i spoke to her about my mothers concerns and she was very nasty towards me and extremely dismissive.”

For communities and operators

Families don’t just tour buildings. They tour for reassurance.

“What happens if my mom falls at 2 a.m.?” Communities that answer that clearly win the move-in — and write a different kind of review. See how Nobi communities say it out loud, on the tour and in the brochure.

What families ask on tour
01“How quickly will you know if she falls?”
02“Will someone check on her at night?”
03“How do you protect her privacy and her dignity?”
04“What happens before a fall, not just after?”
