What this means for your family

This facility is an excellent choice for families seeking high-end amenities and robust activity programming for memory care residents. However, due to a highly critical report of unmonitored injuries, families should prioritize asking about their specific protocols for fall monitoring and incident reporting during tours.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff have been very caring toward her and include her in numerous activities daily. I have been very impressed with the kindness and concern all employees of Ivy Park have shown my mom and my family.

Memory care family member · 2026★★★★★

In 9 short wks, multiple falls & ambulance rides, we took my MIL to emergency to discover week old broken ribs and a fractured pelvis. She never returned to Ivy Park.

Family member · 2026☆☆☆☆

The building, hallways, and common areas are fastidiously maintained, nicely decorated, and feel like a high-end hotel.
