    The residents who live there are great! Warm and welcoming. The kitchen and cleaning staff are the main reason for the 2 star review. The Supervisor will bring her young kids to work if she can’t find day care. The children spend time in the kitchen where food is made. She does not seem to be able to work alone as she always has 2 to 3 staff on when she is working while others can work alone. Staff seldom clean the entire dining room. The floor is usually dirty with crumbs and spilled drinks. The dining room floor is seldom washed. There are bugs and cobwebs by the windows, fireplace and exits. The kitchen staff don’t wear hair nets and sometimes don’t wear gloves in the kitchen. One staff member is on her phone 90% of the time and is rude to residents. Management is aware of this and other issues with staff but choose to look the other way.

    I am grateful to live at Summit Woods! I am not a "spring chicken" - 83 years old...so, anything that has to do with the Internet is HARD! When I was still working - almost 20 years ago - the Internet was a part of my job, but fairly new. Even tho I have not worked for a long time, the Internet has advanced and whether we (senior citizens) like it or not the world continues to drag us in. Doctor appointments, digital grocery shopping, order anything on line!! Hard to live without the Internet! Easy to be scammed!! Summit Woods (Capri Communities) has began a program that will help us with all these things. We have what are called Tech Genies. They will come and help us with solving all our technical problems from setting up computers or phones to just troubleshooting simple problems. They even help with landlines and TV problems! Very often it is a simple problem for them, but causing a lot of concern for us! Not only can we TRUST them with our information, but it is free! THANK YOU Capri Communities and Summit Woods!! Just another time I am thankful that I live here!

    My father has lived Summit Woods for almost 3 years. Everyone is wonderful! From management, care staff, dietary, housekeeping, maintenance and activities, they are all there for the right reasons and truly care about the residents. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
