    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Reviews highlight a mix of experiences at Kensington Place, a senior living community in the Columbus area. Many reviewers praise the community for its friendly and caring staff, beautiful and clean surroundings, and the variety of services offered, including a SeniorFit Center with trainers and a nice dining hall. The community is described as a caring and vibrant place where residents can enjoy independence while receiving the necessary support.

    However, some reviews express concerns. One detailed account mentions a disappointing experience regarding the miscommunication of the services available for a resident with ALS, questioning the staff's understanding and transparency. Another review points out that the hallways may be too narrow for wheelchairs to comfortably pass each other. Concerns about the quality of meals have also been raised, with some noting a decline in meal quality over time, attributing it to processed and high-sodium food choices.

    On the positive side, many families appreciate the community's efforts to create a welcoming and supportive environment for their loved ones. The staff's attentiveness and quick response times are frequently commended, as is the community's ability to foster a sense of belonging among residents. The availability of extra help with activities of daily living, without the need to move to assisted living, is particularly valued by families.

    Despite some criticisms, such as staffing issues noted by an agency nurse and some discomfort due to warm and stuffy hallways in the summer, the overall sentiment towards Kensington Place is positive. Residents and their families enjoy the community's atmosphere, the variety of amenities, and the commitment to providing a safe and engaging environment for seniors.
