    Caring staff, amenities, administrative problems

    I live here and the staff feel like family - kind, caring and attentive - with excellent meals (the ribs are a highlight), roomy common areas with a big fireplace and Alexa, shaded patios, and lots of outings to shopping, the senior center, Centennial Park and lakefront concerts. Medical support, one-on-one care and therapy helped my recovery; it's quiet, safe, activity-rich and close to the hospital. My worries: management problems, overworked caregivers, restrictive access, unexpected community fees and contract changes, a resident's unexplained weight loss, and messy, prolonged renovations that left areas very dirty. Overall the care and atmosphere are warm and valuable, but be aware of administrative and cleanliness issues.

    About April Bloom Assisted Living

    April Bloom Assisted Living sits at 5037 Durham Rd E on a quiet, safe 1.5-acre plot in the Beaverbrook Community, and you'll notice the large yard and single-story rancher home right away, which means there aren't any stairs to climb and there's plenty of space to move about, especially with the wheelchair accessible layout, wide hallways, and open living room and kitchen that make it easy for anyone, even folks with mobility needs, to get comfortable. You'll find four cozy bedrooms licensed for up to eight residents, so it keeps a warm, personal feel with private or semi-private room options and shared areas for both indoor and outdoor activities whether you just want to enjoy a garden view, walk the paths, or gather in the bright, inviting community room.

    The staff at April Bloom include aides and a part-time nurse who give around-the-clock assistance, offering help with bathing, dressing, medicine reminders, and care for folks who have trouble moving around or need non-ambulatory help. Level 3 care means they handle higher care needs, including one-on-one support for memory issues like Alzheimer's or dementia, and do so with regular supervision, assistive devices, and an emergency alert system, so families know their loved ones are watched over pretty carefully. They've got housekeeping, laundry, phone access in the bedrooms, and transportation if you've got appointments or want to go out to places like Centennial Park, Walmart, or just for lunch, and you don't have to worry about parking or getting around.

    There's a focus on making daily life structured but pleasant, with scheduled activities like movie matinees, bingo, trivia nights, seasonal sports, board games, and even adult coloring and spelling bees, plus health and fitness classes like yoga, aerobics, and balance work, so you keep moving and connected-plus they work in podiatry, regular nurse visits, massage, relaxation therapy, mobile x-ray and lab services, which isn't something you find in every group home. Residents get three nutritious meals made daily by a former Executive Chef in a dedicated dining room, offering all-day dining and special diets for allergies or diabetes, with meal choices adjusted to each person's needs and tastes. Whether you're looking for long-term assisted living, short-term respite care for less than 30 days, help after surgery, support for physical disabilities, or even hospice care, the staff team stays supportive.

    April Bloom Assisted Living matches a home setting with structured care, offering activities that foster both friendships and independence while staying affordable, starting at $4,000 per month for Level 1 care, and higher levels for those who need more help. Move-in coordination is available to make settling in a little easier, and the place is fully fire-sprinkled for extra security. The environment values family involvement and aims to make everyone feel like they belong, while offering individualized attention for each resident. Reviews have been positive, with a current 5.0 rating from three reviewers, and many appreciate the way the staff and setting combine to provide both comfort and capable care in a small, residential environment where both outdoor serenity and regular fun are always close at hand.
