What this means for your family
New Hope Bay is highly regarded for its warm, active environment and dedicated care staff, making it a strong candidate for your loved one. However, we recommend asking management about their current dietary options to ensure they can accommodate low-sodium requirements, and inquiring about their staff training and policy enforcement procedures to address concerns raised by some former employees.

Key Review Excerpts
“My mother moved into New Hope Bay last November. While the change from the home she lived in for more than 50 years to a one bedroom apartment was quite challenging for her, she adjusted just as NHB Staff said she would. Mom really likes and appreciates the care team, kitchen , and activities staff.”
“I’ve been visiting for a few days and I’ve personally experienced the total love and devotion of the staff here at The Bay. They are why I dig this place!”
“I do wish the meals would not have so much salt included. Many of the residents have issues with high BP, heart ailments, and edema, which do not respond well to greater sodium content.”
