I enjoy my life a Manor at Market Square

I can't say anything bad about Manor at Market Square. I like the location because I am close to the hospital in case. I have always kept to myself and I like having my down time. My private studio apartment is perfect for me. I like to walk the hallways for my exercise. I like knowing the staff are there to help me if I need it.

My life at Manor at Market Square

I find the staff very good and friendly. They do their job well and efficient. The place is very clean. I find the transportation service to the doctors office very helpful. I have a private studio apartment and the size is great for me. I am by the elevator and don't hear noise at all. I brought some things from my house to make my apartment feel like home which it does. I enjoy the other resident here.

Manor At Market Square

They have nice people/employees my dad reports good food. Communication to families could be improved a bit. Yes I would recommend this facility to others. Ultimately, of all the options my dad and I toured, it was the place my dad liked the most. The place he felt most comfortable and the most like home. And for my dad, the MOST important aspect-it had the best food!

Excellent

Dad was resistant to leaving his home , but since he is there he seems to really be enjoying it. He’s not a picky eater but has enjoyed every meal so far ( he does say the coffee is a little strong) but he has voiced no complaints. As long as he is happy I’m happy. The only complaint I have is the parking is difficult during the week I think a lot of the employees use it Monday - Friday because I have no problem on the weekends. Thanks for all your help

Manor at market square

The facility is clean, with a friendly competent staff who try to accommodate the residents. Transportation to medical appointments is provided.The facility is conveniently located close to main st. The food is bland with little or no salt.The cost of this residence is very reasonable.

Our families experience

My father told me there meals have gotten worse since he moved in. The people have been very nice though. I think they have had problems with food deliveries and staffing. The rooms are a good size for one person.

A Great Place for Respite Care

My mother stayed in the memory care wing of Manor at Marketplace for two weeks. It was an easy process to arrange from initial information gathering to touring the facility to completing the paperwork to the actual stay. The staff were all friendly and informative. My mother was comfortable and well cared for while I was out of state. I was able to call and speak with her as well as with the staff. I would recommend the Manor at Marketplace to anyone looking for short term respite care or for something more permanent.

Our Experience

My loved one is currently a resident at Manor At Market Square and overall, the experience has been good for her at this facility. The cleanliness and the meals are great. The friendliness is good. My loved one doesn't participate in any of the activities and doesn't leave her room. I wish that they would get her out more.

Highly recommend Manor at Market Square

Staff are very helpful and friendly. They make the residents feel comfortable and engage them in a variety of activities. Can't say enough good things about the staff. I was told that the food quality has fallen in the recent weeks.

Wonderful facility - would recommend.

The initial process getting dad in there, staff was helpful and nice. Getting in touch with someone afterwards is a bit more complicated but overall great place. Most affordable given dads limited income yet still including services and care he needed.

Our Experience

My loved one was previously a resident at Manor At Market Square and overall, the experience was okay. The facility was really improving when they hired a Director for the Memory Care Unit. My loved one enjoyed the activities. The housekeeping was good. The meals needed improvement - for example - cold dry meatloaf is terrible for seniors and while the menu said they could have options - they were never offered to residents when they did not like the main dinner. There were never any condiments. Not even salt and pepper. The staff was friendly and I loved the Director.
