What this means for your family

Birchview is highly regarded for its compassionate care and engaging activities, making it a strong candidate for families seeking a supportive environment. However, because some families have reported issues with administrative communication and admission expectations, we recommend getting all care agreements and policies in writing before finalizing the move-in process.

Key Review Excerpts

I have had my brother in 2 other memory care facilities and wasn't happy with what i was getting for the money. I toured Birchview and was very impressed with the entire staff, the cleanliness of the facility, the layout of the rooms and the programs they offer not to mentioned the price was a bit less than the other 2 sites.

Memory care family member · 2024★★★★★

The staff at birchview are all rock stars. Inparticularly the one stand out is Magdalena from the front office. She was so helpful and gave us wonderful guidance.

Memory care family member · 2024★★★★★

I specifically want to shoutout Beth, the Life Enrichment Director, for supporting me in staying connected with my uncle from across the country and engaging him in gatherings/outings in the community.
