I went to see The Peninsula Assisted Living & Memory Care and toured their assisted living side. It used to be a hospital, so it doesn't have that warm of a vibe when you walk in. The upkeep is great, it just has a hospital vibe. You can't help it because that's what it was before. The room I saw was nice but not as nice as the place that I decided on for my dad. This one is an older facility.
They were busy and the person who assisted me was running back and forth. I was supposed to see this other person but a different person jumped in so it seemed a bit unorganized for me. I scheduled this for a specific time so they knew I was coming. They're helpful and friendly though and gave me information. They also gave me a booklet.
The dining area looked nice, but I have to say that even with a mask on, the food did not smell good.
They have activities all day in different areas. They showed me the movie room, the library, and everything. They've got the full amenities.

My mom moved to The Peninsula. At this moment, it could use some improvement. The food is fine, my mom likes the food, but the care is very confusing. I asked for a heating pad, they said they couldn't do that. She just got out of the hospital, so orders for this and that, and they can't get any prescription. I'm trying to get a doctor, and all the management people told me that a doctor would be here. But there's no doctor here, he just comes once or twice a year. A nurse practitioner named Jennifer comes here every week. But next week she's not gonna be here, so I asked who's going to take her spot, and she said nobody. I think that should have coverage, it can't just be her. They need people to step up and do their jobs here and check up on them every week. I'm so confused. The management is pretty good, but the nursing isn't, it's very poor and they're very ignorant. When you ask questions, they just look at you and they don't answer you. They pass the buck all the time. When I asked for a heating pad, I talked to four or five different nurses and finally got an "Oh, no, we can't do that." When I asked them if they have the paperwork for the VA for my mom and they just looked at me and didn't say anything. I said "Excuse me, I'm speaking to you. I said do you know if they have the care papers from the VA for my mom?" and they just kept looking at me and staring. The facility itself is very nice and clean. I've seen them play bingo and some kind of pow-wow in the TV room today. I think it's overpriced. We have a situation right now with the cable, and she's been here a few weeks now. They were supposed to fix it, they were supposed to have Comcast come out, but there are no local stations.

My mom will be moving into The Peninsula. She's not there yet, but I was impressed with it. The lobby entrance was grand, it looked like a palace, and everything was marble. The tour guide was very respectful and pleasant. She explained everything in detail about the price and the different size rooms. The rooms and the building looked new like they'd been renovated. The dining room was impressive, very big and bright. The staff made it sound like aides and the assistants are very organized. The place was very impressive. I saw the menu, it looked nice and there was a lot of variety.

I have chosen The Peninsula because of the cleanliness of the place, the staff and the room. My mother will be moving in. It is part of the Meridian Senior Living. The place is clean. They do activities seven days a week. It is a very inviting place to live. The staff is very friendly and very attentive. It is clean inside and out, and I was very impressed the way everything was set up. It is also closer to where I live. The rooms are very well kept. The dining room is nice. The recreation room is nice, and they have a movie theater. It is a very nice place.

Everything at The Peninsula was very clean. I didn't have anything negative to say about it. The people there were nice, the facility was nice, including the rooms. It was a very nice place. They had an activities room where they did exercise, played bingo, and did art. They had a computer room, an atrium, and a place for meals. They gave me an apple pie when I left, and my mother-in-law loved it; she ate it all. The tour was very good. The staff was great, and the lady who walked me around was very informative and nice. The facility was nice and updated.

The Peninsula was really expensive like a lot of the facilities are, but it was very nice. The staff was very nice. Everybody was great. The services were really good. It was a little on the expensive side, but it would be worth it. The facilities were good, and the rooms were big. Even the studios were big. Everything was good. The dining room was very clean. The residents were happy.

My mother is at The Peninsula. It's a five-story building, very much like a hotel, and they only have semi-private rooms. They have a dining hall, activities, a nurses' station, and a memory care section. They have bingo and church services, and they provide homemade food. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have a hairdresser that comes in and does hair and nails, and they offer transportation to doctors' offices within ten miles of the facility.

The Peninsula was older than the other places we've visited. The people who accommodated the tour were quite nice and pleasant. And when it came down to negotiating, they were okay. But since the building is older, the layout of the community is not conducive for my father. The apartment we were looking at was a little bit far from the dining area, and it would have been a challenge for my dad to walk there. They have a beauty salon and sort of an ice cream parlor. The outdoor area that's a little bit confined but it's okay, it's sufficient. The facilities weren't run-down, just a little bit old and showing wear and tear, so because of that there's no wow factor. The carpets are business grade kind, it wasn't plush nor luxurious. The apartments were spacious but you dont go wow.

My visit to The Peninsula was fine. The rooms were not bad, but they didn't have porches, which was what I was looking for. The staff seemed very friendly and helpful.

The place is very pretty. I believe they recently renovated and I was surprised at how nice everything looked and how clean it was. The residents there were enjoying a nice musical activity when I toured and overall everyone seemed friendly. I am definitely considering this place for my mother. Out of all of the places I visited, this one by far was the best!

I love the Peninsula, and I thought they can handle my husband. He was very aggressive when he got there and was behaving very badly, but I think it was not their fault. They are very good. They are serving 3 meals a day, and they have activities during the day like bowling, dominoes, and cards.

My mother was a resident of this fine facility, both in assisted living and dementia care for 14 months. I would rate the Peninsula 100****'s for their delightful ambience, delectable cuisine, and, of course the competent, caring, compassionate administration and staff. Thank you all!
If in need of an excellent venue for a loved one, The Peninsula should be at the top of your list!

I liked the Peninsula a lot, but they only had studio apartments available. I thought it was a great place, and I was impressed. We met with the head chef there, and their dining area was very good. The staff was very friendly.

The Peninsula is lovely and really nice. They have activities, though I think my mom wants more activities because it’s geared toward continuing care. They are nice to her, and the meals are good. She’s made friends there; she was pretty much just sitting in home by herself before. They take the residents shopping and out to dinner. They have nice things for them to do and don’t overstress them. She is not alone, which is really the key, because when she was living with me, she was home alone as I and my cousin worked. She had a couple of falls that she didn’t tell us about. It seems clean and nice. They all seem nice and caring, too. I had dinner there with her, and they are very accommodating. She likes the studio, and she has one of the biggest ones with which she is very happy. Because she is in a studio downstairs, she actually gets up as opposed to just staying in her bedroom.

I thought The Peninsula was nice; the rooms were nice, and the food was good. They had a lot of activity; it is more open, more like going into a hotel. I wasn’t too happy with the actual care unit for the memory loss.

My mom was a resident at this community for 5 years, it was as happy as it could be for her. During her last days the staff bent over backwards to accommodate her, they also have hospice on site which also aided with her condition. I couldn't have asked for more. She made so many friends and they had a little ceremony at the community after she passed. I would highly recommend this community to any family!!

I am searching a facility for my aunt. I really liked The Peninsula, but the only issue that I had with it was that it is too far for me. I wanted something closer to where her sister and other parts of the family can visit. It is nice though, and I liked it. I would have wanted her to see it. I like the fact that they have a cafeteria, where she can pick out her meal through the menu up on the board and a movie room. I also like that the people were out and about and were not confined to a room. They could come and go freely and were treated like any regular people to me, and I liked that. The ones I saw seemed to be happy. They were laughing, socializing, and playing cards. They were doing everything. It has pretty much everything she will need. But we are concerned with the location because we don't want her to be somewhere people cannot go and see her. I'll recommend this to my aunt.

I like the environment of The Peninsula; that is why I chose this facility for myself. I like the welcoming that I received. I like their rooms too. They did show me three rooms, and one of them I adored. I also like its location because I have lived in this neighborhood for 40 years.

The impression I got when I had a visit at The Peninsula was very cold and so I wasn’t impressed with the facility. I had lunch there and the food was good. The staff were professional, courteous, and kind, but I just didn’t feel that I belong there.

My mother is a current resident of The Peninsula. It is smaller than some we have looked at but this one appealed to her in that it is not overwhelming for her. We put her there primarily because she has macular degeneration and secondly because she has dementia. She can no longer live by herself because she is almost blind. There is also a likelihood that she is going to get Alzheimer's. Fortunately, this place would make it possible for her to advance to their Alzheimer's unit. The facility was once a hospital converted to an assisted living facility. However, it is clean and immaculate. It doesn't smell like urine. Their lobby is just gorgeous. They do have areas for activities where there have their card tables, TV, etc., but no one uses these areas. They also have a little gazebo area but nobody goes there. All of their residents just sit on park benches in front and stare out at people as they come in. It is the most depressing and heartbreaking sight in the world. The staff is so friendly. At one time, they helped defrost my mom's small refrigerator, so when a friend of mine and I stopped over for a visit, there was no ice. One of the attendants offered to get us some and two minutes later, she came back with three Styrofoam glasses full of ice for us. That's their attitude all the time, not just to their patients, but even to us visitors as well. Food is excellent in The Peninsula. The chef that they have even caters to the residents' preferences and needs. When he found that my mother's last name was German, he had put some German dishes on the menu and that is so sweet. They have three meals a day and they do happy hours with cheese and crackers twice a week. They have popcorns with the movies. They have ice cream social once a week. There is always food. I appreciate that.

The people at The Peninsula are very nice. My parents are there and they got two rooms. The facility is nice. The only thing is that the hours that they eat are very early and I think that's probably the hardest thing that they would get accustomed to.
