We have not seen the meals ourselves just due to certain restrictions but our loved one has yet to really complain so we assume they are pretty good. We have heard they do more activities in the spring and summer when the weather gets warm so we are excited to see what all they do. They do go outside and have BBQ's and exercise. Our loved one says it feels like home and based on the experience we have had so far we would recommend to other families.

Yellow Brick House seemed more institutionalized to me. There was a long hallway that you had to have a code to go through. They need to improve the layout. It was an older facility and was not modernized. The staff was very informative. It was closer to my home.

I wasn't really too impressed with The Yellow Brick House. Its an older house that a doctor and his family used to live in, and they just kind of extended the house. So when you go there, you go in a sideway, like a side entrance. When you go in there's a little desk for the reception and some sofas...

I wasn't really too impressed with The Yellow Brick House. Its an older house that a doctor and his family used to live in, and they just kind of extended the house. So when you go there, you go in a sideway, like a side entrance. When you go in there's a little desk for the reception and some sofas and chairs, but right off to the side is the place where the people eat. So, I didn't like the fact that as soon as you walk in the door, the food area is right there next to where the company is, because I feel like even in anybody's kitchen, I don't like to smell food when you walk in the door. Depending on where you are going, when you leave there, you smell like you've been in the kitchen. And when you go to the left, that's the older part of the house, you go toward the front. They had a room there, but it just really didn't impress me. So, I didn't like the building. The young lady I spoke to was an occupational therapist. She was nice. They do have the library there. They do have activities. She also carried me over to the memory care area. That was OK. They're behind a door where it's locked, so they had to use a code to go back there. I guess they were people that all tried to leave the facility. She did show me the activity room there. She also showed me where they had the, I guess it's called a skylight, where the roof has an open area. She said that helps with sundowners, that they can see light as long as possible, so that helps with them. But it just looks very small, like it really wasn't enough room for everybody. I just wasn't really impressed with that place.

My husband and I are thrilled with how well my mother in law is doing at yellow brick house. She is happy every time we go see her, and the staff have expressed how they like taking care of her needs. [Name removed] has gone above and beyond for our family!

Very home-like atmosphere. Excellent staff.
