My mother, age 101, has lived at Clark in independent living for 21 years. She recently moved to assisted living. The staff are caring, supportive, and kind. She has kept active with a variety of activities provided. In the early days at Clark, they gave very good care to my dad who had Alzheimer’s. After he passed, they were very attentive to my mom’s emotional needs. When it was time for me to move to a retirement community, it was a no brainer. Clark is not perfect, but it’s a wonderful and fun place to live.

My loved one was at Clark for 8 years. During that time, he entered clark with his wife but sadly she passed during their time there. He was moved to a few different floors due to his progressing needs while at Clark. Most recently, he had been on the memory care unit for over 2 years. He loved Clark and would always tell anyone who would listen “this is my home now!” Despite the lack of staffing and the slow response to call lights, as a family, we overlooked that because he was happy to be at Clark. We were totally caught off guard when called in for a family meeting in which we were told that we’d have to find different placement because Clark could no longer handle his needs. After he had been there for 8 years, was very happy, etc. it was just shocking to be told this. He is in great physical help, needed no assistance eating or toileting, but he’s forgetful as he’s 91 and has Alzheimer’s. We thought that he was in the perfect place to handle his needs. There are several other residents much more progressed in their diseases. Over the amount of time that he was at Clark, between him and his wife’s care, he has spent over a million dollars to be their resident, for it to end so abruptly like this. As a family, we had to remove him from Clark to provide him better care elsewhere. I would not wish this nightmare upon anybody, as he was being moved out several staff members were equally as shocked as we were and said that “he was always a joy.” This treatment of a resident is despicable and totally unforeseen when you think that you’ve found a safe and secure place for your elder.

Not perfect but they come close. As someone who was a caseworker for adults who couldn't live independently, and visited many, many care settings, I am aware that any facility that has as many residents and as many staff as Clark will have a few issues occasionally. It's the overall day to day care that matters. That said, we are very happy with Clark. My dad, who spent 2 days a week (for many years) visiting people in almost every care setting in the GR area, chose Clark for himself and mom. I think He made a good choice. He has passed on, but mom has been there several years. It's clean, in good repair, has many activities, and staff are kind and competent. We visit frequently at all hours, eat in their dining hall with mom at least once a week, and some of us have spent the night with mom. Mom is mentally all there and is also well satisfied. I'd recommend you consider it.

My parents moved there in the fall of 2005. Mom needed more care. She died in 2007. Dad lived at Clark until 2010 when he passed away. Both received very good care. I was at Clark at all times of day. The staff is caring, the buildings are clean, the food is good. I would recommend Clark. My family found great comfort with the policies of Life Time Care. If a Clark Resident outlives their money they can continue to live at Clark.

Nothing but kudos for Clark and their staff. No matter the need, they are always ready-at-the-wait for my mother and step-dad and the facilities are prepared for every level of care for the retired. From the fantastic dining, to the woodshed, to the gym, to the mental health programs, Clark is just perfect (and I don't say that casually),
