Beautiful building, so much potential. The staff is a mess. They have fired several employees I'm hoping it improves. I feel like they have a great sales team but once you move your loved one in the promises are not kept. Also, the sales team did a great job of talking the place up.

The staff at Bonaventure of Gresham are professional and caring, but, most of all, kind. I trust them completely with my mother's care. The facility is bright, cheerful and clean, with a wide variety of activities offered.

Communication of expectations for family members, keeping memory care rooms clean and organized, staff not making assumptions without confirming. The memory care director was a nightmare to work with. She testified in court falsely.

So disappointed at how fast the turnover rate is for some employees here. They can’t keep an eye on their residents when needed and they don’t feed them delivery and healthy food. Over 1/2 the residents I have encountered have refused to eat, have to have a sandwich for almost every meal, or had to force themselves to eat the food that comes out of the kitchen. Residents are not getting what they pay for and are not being listened to when it comes to comments about such things. I am very disappointed in this

Beautiful facility and Residents are Welcoming. Rooms are of good size with medical services for most, except for under staffed. Understaffed medical dispensary constantly training new staff with medication not always given on time or restocked from pharmacy that is located out of state. Assisted care staff assigned to room care are outstanding, work hard, friendly and care but due to being under staffed they need to help others on the team by working overtime. The food needs improvement. Breakfast is good, Lunch is like eating dinner heavy with gravies carbs and a vegetable or salad not a lot of lighter choices and if you have meals in your room you may not get what you ordered or condiments. Dinner resembles lunch. Management must be under staffed as well they are hard to meet with over concerns or get answers. Activities are plentiful and they love to involve the residents. There is 1 maintenance person for the facility who is kind and works hard and should have a support person to make repairs timely. They also have a person come in over the weekend to do Maintenance.

We felt on the front end we were well taken care of however the care my father in law received was not what was described to us: example we were told their assisted living residence were weighed every day to monitor sudden weight gain my FIL has congestive heart failure so this is critical. The weight checks were someone just asking him what his weight was. This was disappointing as they are relying on an 88 year old in cognitive decline. We had to ask to make sure his appointment was on the cleaning schedule he received no assistance in food choices for a low sodium diet as promised in our interview with them (it's worth noting this lead directly to hospitalization 3 weeks after he moved in and ultimately him never making a strong enough recovery to return. We were told he could ask for help from the servers who are often high school age. While meals were beautiful and well prepared the assistance with his diet was lacking. I am not sure I would recommend it for assisted living however for retirement living and memory care it seemed to be done well.

First let me give feedback on A Place For Mom. You guys are amazing! My family member would not be where he is today without the quick response from you. You listened to our wants and needs and financial limits and came through with flying colors. I can't tell you how many people I have told about your service! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Regarding Bonaventure. Overall it has been an incredible 1st year. They have exceeded all my expectations and the the manager [fee removed]has been exceptional in her management and so very personable in her interactions with myself and my family member! Overall a 5! Cleanliness 5. Never have i seen any area that needs attention. Friendliness of Staff 5. Everyone knows my family member and seem to treat everyone with kindness and respect. Quality of Care 5. My family member is in independent living, so there is not much need of care but the few times it has been needed they were amazing, gentle, kind, skilled and respectful. Meals and Dining 4. I only rate this as 4 because they have had a change in head cooks and my family member says it's not as good tasting. Activities 5. While my family member does not participate in many the staff has gone out of their way to include him and every single day the activity board is full. Value for the Money 5. While it is expensive, it is one of the lowest costing facilities is around. He has a great apartment and plenty of food. They come in weekly to clean and he has access to laundry facilities. He feels safe and welcome and thankful for the opportunity to live there. In fact without them I doubt he would still be alive. So yes. Worth every single penny!

Our entire experience with Bonaventure has been nothing less than awesome! From initial contact, to tour, selection, move-in, and everyday living - They have treated us so well. The staff is energetic and engaged, everything is always clean, the food is yummy, and the events are fun. Highly recommend Bonaventure!

For the ones with a 1 I would really give them a -10 I moved my Mom after 4 months and many many issues. They are way under staffed. The food was awful tasting and when it was served it was cold. Sometimes the residents would wait an hour to get served or in my Moms case they forget several times to go get her and bring her to the dining room to eat. Isn't that what assisted living is all about....giving assistance. Her call button necklace didn't work most of the time and she fell and laid there for a 1/2 hr. Before they found her. She was bleeding and it got on the carpet. They said it would be cleaned but when we moved in march it still had not been cleaned. She fell on January 2nd. They also raised our rent by almost [amount removed] and couldn't tell me why. After I pushed for a month and they wanted to close their books but I wouldn't pay they figured out they didn't check a box.....it was the cost for getting my Mom who is in a wheelchair to the dining room. Again isn't that part of assisted living and the [amount removed] we were already paying! I had to tell them how much they owed us because they didn't tell us first it was raising. They couldn't even figure it out. When I'm asked about a reference I always tell people do not go to Bonaventure. After several discussions with the director and many emails outlining the problems with no resolutions, I found a much better place for my Mom and they actually take care of her and make her a priority.

I have to say that the response we received from A Place For Mom was amazing. You all did a great job of matching us with facilities that had rooms available in our price range. We chose this community primarily based on the room available at a perfect price point. I would say it has been a great experience. The staff have all been attentive and friendly. They go out of their way to include residents in activities, and the residents all seem friendly as well. Not very often does [name removed] eat alone. The place is well maintained and clean.

My mom absolutely LOVES Bonaventure! It is just the perfect place! What our family likes the most about the Bonaventure of Gresham community, is the personal attention she gets and the best of all they were able to write her card plan so she was able to get her long term care insurance!!

When we toured the Bonaventure of Gresham community the food was really good, but since it has gone downhill due to the employee turnover in the dining room. There is just a turnover in the dining room.

I would recommend to others most definitely. They do not seem to a high rate of turnover with staff with I like...helps with people with my mom with memory issues. Nice to see same faces and names. They are clean and have friendly staff and care services. Meals are good. I think they have good activities although my mom doesn't participate in them. Value for cost is hard for me to rate because they are all inordinately expensive in my personal opinion but I would say comparing to others they are good.

My experience is based on the memory care side. They give a very good tour, I will say that. The tour made me think we'd found the right place. Somehow they even managed to make the place not stink like pee when we were touring. Until we moved in and I saw what it was actually like. They claim to be fully staffed but that has not been my experience. Maybe they have enough staff that are on payroll, but that does not mean they're appropriately staffed on the floor for every shift. It takes forever for them to respond to the call buttons, which when I had my tour I asked about that and they told me they had a 2.5 minute response time. I have to help them change/dress my family member every time it's needed because she needs 2 people to do that and they never have 2 people available. But honestly I prefer to be the one to help because the staff seems to have very little training before being left on their own. We're paying a lot for all of the "extras" they say they do but I'm not seeing any of that. They're supposed to be feeding her because she's not able to feed herself but most of the caregivers don't. She's been there almost 3 months and I don't think they've ever maintained her finger nails/toe nails. Stuff goes missing out of her room because other residents take things and I never get them back. I have brought my concerns up to management and have not seen any of the improvements they promised.

As with everywhere they are short staffed. It can be challenging when it comes to assisted living and not getting the care in a timely manner. Quite a bit of turnover. The residents are wonderful and the place is beautiful. They do a good job at trying to keep it neat and clean.

There have been issues with many different things that management did work with us on. The last one was a financial issue that took a month to correct and they were not responsive. The aides are wonderful and treated my loved one very well. I'm not sure I would recommend them unless the resident was fully able to care for themselves.

They have mishandled serious situations. Very disappointed. Meals delivered hours late. Try 8:00pm. The time is different everyday. Not acceptable. Took 2 weeks to get med orders figured out by BV. Meanwhile my loved one did not have her blood pressure medicine for that duration from the day she moved in. They left her half undressed on night one. Left and said they would return soon. Hours later they returned. I know it's difficult to get good help but some of the issues were administrative. After my loved one fell they never contacted family. My Mom has poor hearing and didn't know what they said except that she asked staff call my brother. That should be routine for anyone who fell We never got a call and found out 2 days later. No staff or nurse examined her body after fall. The list goes on.
