We lead structured programming throughout each day, from morning to early evening, to create a comfortable, familiar routine.
At Seasons Belleair Memory Care, you’ll be greeted by warm, friendly faces in a positive, uplifting environment where residents can move freely within the secure community.
Such a caring environment, these folks definitely know how to make my family feel comfortable in the knowledge that our loved ones are being cared for with respect. Outings and activities have been super fun and I love being able to see pictures of them online.
What a wonderful Memory Care facility. They have so many activities. The staff is wonderful.
A great staff and good food. They keep them busy and active!
I don’t know where to start! The facility always seems clean, and the people in charge of activities seem to really care about the residence. I brought up the subject of basic oral hygiene like changing diapers regularly, help with brushing teeth, coming hair. I have requested shower sheets for five weeks now from different people throughout the facility and all they do is pass the buck and have not provided me with the information. My mother has dementia so she needs help with these things. I have asked repeatedly over and over if this is an assisted living facility,And they say yes, it is, but they aren’t assisting her with the very basics that she needs help with. I’m trying to be an advocate for her, but I’m not getting anywhere with these people. I feel really sorry for the people who have no one to check on them.
Update 2024* A friend of mine called me today to tell me her mother had passed at 72 years old from a UTI. Guess who is in charge of her care!?? This place is awful!!
My Grammy was dead in a month!
My grandmother moved into Seasons Belleair on October 13. The room that they showed us on our tour was very nice. The room that my grandmother moved into what is lacking in comparison. In their words, she was the highest functioning of their residences. She walked with a walker, she could hold conversations, she would use the restroom by herself as well as eat and drink on her own. On November 16 she passed away. During her stay at Seasons she was more times than not in other people’s clothing that was clearly labeled. She would have food in her teeth and on her face at visits. On our third visit my grandmother had multiple bruises on both of her arms. When I asked about them I was told it she can be clumsy and bump into things. A few weeks into living here, my grandmother took a fall. She dislocated her elbow. I asked to see the video. I was told by Christina that it was “disheartening” that I wanted to see it. In my opinion, she should’ve offered! We are trusting our loved ones in their care and they should be transparent when accidents happen. I should not have been made to feel guilty about wanting to make sure my grandmother was being cared for properly. My grandmother’s arm was placed in just a sling. As a person that has dementia, she did not know not to move her arm. She ended up re-dislocating it. On November 10 she went to Morton Plant because of this. After being evaluated at the hospital they discovered that she had a raging UTI! Her kidneys were in failure and she was days away from death. My grandmother‘s private part was scratched so raw! The nurses and aids changing her diapers would have seen this and should have taken immediate action. On top of this, my grandmother was dehydrated. If it wasn’t for her elbow she would’ve passed away at Seasons while in their care. Unfortunately, she declined so rapidly at the hospital that she was moved to hospice by Sunday and passed away on Tuesday. When I returned to Seasons to pick up her belongings, the front desk lady, Joan, mistook me for someone else (I’d had been coming twice a week since she moved in) and was very unprofessional. I had an appointment at 12:30. Everyone should’ve known that I was coming. Not one administrator was available. It has been five days since her passing and no one from Seasons has reached out to me or my family to share their condolences. The month that my grandmother spent at Seasons cost us $10,000 and they can’t even bother to make a phone call. I expressed how I felt Joan was rude to us on multiple occasions and rude to my grandmother‘s best friend who tried to visit weekly. I was told that she was English so she may seem that way! I was made to feel like I was annoying checking on my grandmother’s health when in reality I should’ve been checking on her more! I truly feel that if my grandmother never moved into Seasons Belleair she would still be with us today. Medical care at this facility is unacceptable! I am including a picture of the day she moved in as well as the bruises in her arm. I’m also including a picture of her the day she was admitted to the hospital.
