What this means for your family
Summit Pointe offers a vibrant social calendar and a welcoming environment for independent and assisted living residents. However, families considering the memory care unit should be extremely cautious; please conduct unannounced visits and ask specifically about their protocols for hygiene, inventory of personal items, and communication procedures for resident needs.

51 reviews on Google“Summit Pointe Senior Living generally receives high praise for its warm, family-like atmosphere and attentive staff who are often described as caring and professional. However, there is a significant pattern of serious complaints regarding the memory care unit, specifically concerning hygiene, missing personal items, and a lack of communication regarding residents' basic needs. Families should carefully weigh the positive social environment against these critical reports of neglect in the memory care wing.”

Key Review Excerpts
“My grandpa is in memory care here and I'm beyond words with how frustrated we are with how he has been treated. First off, his room is disgusting every time we visit, and can tell it hasnt been cleaned in a while.”
“My father has been cared for with dignity and respect. All levels of staff know his name and I have seen them stop and chat on several occasions. I feel welcomed whenever I visit and feel grateful for Summit Pointe.”
“Dad was only there 10 days before he fell ill and was hospitalized... the nurse and care coordinator both knew he was not well and was being transported by ambulance to the ER, but NOT ONCE after he left did anyone reach out to see how he was doing.”
