Cogir Senior Living

The staff has been very helpful and took care of all the questions I had. The community is filled with friendly and helpful people. I have found it really easy to make friends. The activities have lots of things for us to do.

I have been living here for two years and four months and I have had three executive directors. The current one is the best. She listens and has designated an hour of here workdays to meeting with residents. She is sensitive to the needs of the residents. She has been hiring staff members who are like minded in serving the residents courteously, bringing with them knowledge and skills and experience that the residents have not had for a long time. The ONE BIG PROBLEM is replacing an open housekeeper position. I am confident that when she finds one who meets the requirements of the job, she will hire the right one. Safety and security in the community should be looked into. The continuing high annual increase in the rent is driving away long time residents. I suggest awards to residents on their 10th anniversary, 15th anniversary and perhaps to someone who turns 100 years old to show Cogir's appreciation for loyalty or something. Thank you.

I enjoy the local church's visits to our community. I also enjoy [name removed] monthly presentations on various historical topics. I enjoy our needle nuts club (knitting & crocheting) and the sense of purpose it provides. I have met some wonderful, friendly people!

I enjoy the many different people I have met here. I particularly love all the different programs that are offered. I find them all interesting and fulfilling and I absolutely love dancing at happy hour!

The people here are truly enjoyable. I love being able to pick and choose what I want to do. I especially look forward to our flower arranging classes and beading classes. I like meeting with other people and sharing time with whoever I choose to be with!

I have made several great friends since moving into Acoya Troon. I really love it here and that is the honest truth. I enjoy all of the activities and diversity and especially look forward to the many different outings offered each month!

I enjoy so much here. They keep me busier than I have been in years. There's just so much to do! Our activity director keeps us very busy and I love every minute of it. I have made so many new friends and I am really enjoying life here!

I have been here since mid November and I am very pleased with my apartment. People here are very nice. I've met some nice people. Management is helpful and try hard to accommodate our needs. Meals are good if not always fancy. It's quite comfortable. It's not the fanciest place in town although everything is clean and functional. It also is not the most expensive. The newer places were all out of my price range and I guess there may be those who would prefer newer or fancier things but I personally find everything really comfortable. They do meals, clean for us weekly and provide transportation to appointments, shopping and other events. There's programs throughout the week to entertain us, provide things to do, a nice library and workout room. It provides me with ability to live in a safe environment in my own place. There is an emergency contact program to call for help if needed. My son was comfortable with me living alone here. I'm quite happy. As I stated the place is immaculately clean and maintained, but if your expectation is shiny and new it may not be your style. However as noted it is also not most expensive although I've seen more expensive that weren't as functional to me.

The name fits, this is a community with a heart and care for our mom. The staff are wonderful and truly have a heart for the elderly.

Before I moved to Cogir at Fremont about two years ago, I had personal experience in another similar facility for a year and knowing multiple different settings of such kinds. So fairly, I would give 5 stars to activities and the director of the show. But the negative sides of the activities included too much alcohol drinking socials and gambling activities with real money such as bingos, ma-chung. I am not even sure it is allowed by the California State laws. The facility invests money on the activities surely benefit to residents, I appreciate! I hope the food can get better in quality and cooking. Too much wine purchases for small amount of drinkers take away maturity residents food quality. It makes the kitchen only gets one star , in fact, it’s food 80% of the lunch and dinner main dishes are from poor quality meats or sandwiches from processed meats, canned foods… the staff at dining room mostly good but some having mood swings. Undeniably that they worked very hard mostly.

Astor house is my home. I got here when they opened up in 2001. I had left for 2 years and came back because there is nothing like it. Staff is very kind and so are the residents. Activities are my favorite. I love when we play wii bowling. The food is moderate. Always room for improvement.

This facility has felt like smoke and mirrors to us. The Executive Director is terrible and runs her staff with fear. I believe that they are underpaid. The rest of the staff/care staff is great, but the ED should be looked into.

The overall experience so far has been good- my only experience was limited to the tour, room selection an d community service fee. The cleanliness of the community is good from what I could see- limited experience. The staff members are very nice, and so far we have had no experience with the care services. The meals looked very pleasant, professional warm and inviting, but did not actually eat a meal. No experience with the activities as well.

My Mom has been at Where The Heart Is since March 2023. We selected this facility because of the open-living concept of the floorplan which invites the residents to share more of their waking hours. This has proven to be the very aspect that Mom is most pleased with as she has become very social in recent years. Not only does she enjoy meaningful relationships with other residents, but she would say the same is true of many of the caregivers and therapists who work with her. She loves others deeply and she is loved deeply in return.

Activites are outstanding and plentiful. Something for everyone. NO matter what you abilities there is something for out in the activity department! Trips to parks, bingo, crafts, exrcise, movies and social gathering such with snacks ike a sundae or birthday cake. SUch great people work in the activity center also! Lona is very fun and also professional. If you like trips to shop or special events there are 2 accessible buses and a car to take you out for fun or doctor appointments.

The whole process with A Place for Mom was so incrediblely helpful!!! I picked because of the overall value for cost, especially meals. Also the location was very important, it provides a lot of extra experiences, especially for the independant level person.

I would recommend it to a friend. I picked this community, because of the overall look, feel and location

The staff at Atrium Village have been wonderful. They made a tough transition for my mom much more palatable. She was still in mourning for my Dad and was uprooted from her home to this Senior Living Facility. I didn't think she would come around so soon. The staff made that transition happen, all in 4 months time. [Name removed], the Executive Director there, is just like his name. A spiritual song that soothed my mom's spirit. He would send pictures of her smiling and enjoying the activities. He gave me comfort that my mom was in good hands and care. The staff were there to encourage her and to assist her. She went from not eating, to gaining 25 pounds. Communication with the family has been great. Me and my brothers get called often with concerns, like a change in her habits or hints for dealing with certain situations. They've been awesome, we love them! Mom is doing very very well.

I am not receiving care at Cogir of Queen Anne, I'm in independent living. I also have not signed up for any meal plans. Thus those items are not applicable for me . All else is very satisfactory. There are a variety of activities are offered each week, including music performances, nature walks and excursions.
