Great fit

I'd say, we thought it was a good place physically, room sizes, dining area, etc. but more importantly, we liked the staff (director and marketing manager who are no longer there). It felt like the right place. They are helpful. When there are issues, they meet with the family and help resolve them. I'm mostly referring to health issues.

Great Facility of Caring Staff

Dad moved into Melody Living last February. While he is very happy with his living space and food quality, it's the staff he is most grateful. They care about his well being giving him the appropriate level of attention.

Excellent support when it's really needed

Pricing, location, look and feel of the community, services and staff were the main reasons we chose Melody Living. The staff are all very helpful and supportive. They are always willing to communicate as well.

Greatly exceeded our highest hopes

After my father's death we wanted my mother to be closer to us. She suffered from progressive dementia and needed care on virtually every level. We heard about Melody Living and decided to investigate. We wanted to be sure that her care would be good as her former residence. We visited the facility and found it to be a beautiful and functional design while emphasizing comfort and safety for the residents. After interviewing management and observing activities and daily life there, we decided to give it a try. We felt good about it immediately and even better with each day. We realized that Melody Living was not just simply as good as her former residence, it was measurably better. Management worked with her in the most caring fashion and found solutions to her numerous challenges rather than ignoring issues or passing them off on the family. This resulted in a marked improvement in her quality of life. It is an incredibly well run organization from top to bottom.

From a resident

I would encourage you to come to Melody Living because the people are friendly, the food is good, and they take good care of me! The temperature throughout the building is comfortable. Our activity lady keeps us busy. We are definitely getting our money's worth.

My tour of Melody Living Lake in the Hills

I toured Melody Living Lake in the Hills and I was not impressed. It felt cheap. I'd rate it at poor. The staff was nice, but the total experience was not on the level of the other facility in the area that we toured/chose. Mom deserved the best in the area.

Tour experience

Melody Living Lake in the Hills was my first choice for my dad. The facility is very nice and they have individual care plans tailored to whatever your loved one may need. It is more expensive, but it is worth it because you get the care needed. All of the staff that I spoke with were extremely kind and helpful, it was just a totally different experience than the place he ended up choosing. I wish that he would have gone here.

Melody Living Lake in the Hills was a newer and beautiful facility. It was much bigger than we were looking for, but I thought it was a very nice place. My loved one just needed more care than they could provide.

Too much curn as far as the staffing goes, typical of these facilities. All of these facilities are too expensive. Nominally $100K per year. You can basically hire 24/7 care for that if you are so inclined.
