I wanted to share my experience with Tracy Frederick. I brought a client to tour today and it was a unique situation. Tracy handled the family with such dedication and kindness. I was very grateful and impressed by her willingness to help us and make a sad situation have some positives for the family. Also the community is stunning, clean and the residents look cared for and happy! Well done! Planning to offer my clients more visits there in the future.

The dining program at Carnegie Assisted Living has been such a wonderful highlight for our community. Every meal is prepared with real care, and the attention to both flavor and presentation makes it feel like dining in a restaurant rather than a facility. Residents have been enjoying a wide variety of options, from classic comfort foods to creative dishes that are beautifully plated. Our culinary team works hard to make sure each meal isn’t just nutritious, but something residents look forward to every day. The feedback from families and residents has been amazing!! It’s so rewarding to see everyone truly enjoying their dining experience. The photos I’ve shared here are just a small sample of the effort and pride that goes into every plate. Carnegie Assisted Living truly values food as an important part of quality of life, and it shows in the dining program.

Community looks beautiful but they are short staffed and not organized. My Uncle has now moved to the Acute Nursing Facility from the Assisted Living and I am still having difficulty with the staff on the Assisted Living side not transferring records and helping me to have the hospital bed picked up. I would leave messages and send emails during my Uncle's stay and would not receive a response from the staff. I really had high expectations when he moved into this facility and was very disappointed with the lack of response I received as my Uncle's power of attorney from the staff.

I am a resident here at Carnegie. The management and administration are very caring and attentive to the various needs and concerns of all the residents. Always something to do if you care to join in. Remodeling has begun, we’re all excited to see the completion. 2025! Stop and check it out! Beautiful remodel

My mom has been a resident at Carnegie for almost three years. I've witnessed progress in mom's overall health and wellbeing since she has been at Carnegie. She has made friends with other residents, and I have observed positive changes in her level of engagement, cognitive and social skills. Carnegie has virtual family council meetings with family members and the leadership team in an effort to keep open communications. This forum also allows family members to share feedback and raise any questions and concerns. Timely follow up is sometimes a challenge; but it's gotten better. Carnegie has events on holiday's which include both AL & Memory Care residents, and family members so they make an effort to be all-inclusive. Carnegie also has outings (off prem) for the residents which is great! Carnegie recently went through a renovation and the facility is much brighter, cheerier and welcoming. Overall, the community is friendly and clean. I appreciate the support and care that the staff / care aides are providing mom.

In reference to my stay at Carnegie Assisted Living for the past 3 1/2 years, I would like to say that I’m deeply grateful for the love and opportunities they offer me, when Karina came 6 month after I moved in she learned I was a professional horticulturist and got me involved in creating a community garden for us the residents to work on under my expertise. We do a garden opening party every year and is more special because they allow us to plant and arrange flowers how we prefer. Carnegie taught me the value of acceptance and patience with others and with ourselves which is so wonderful. I can’t say enough how much I love my apartment with garden view, my cat Gabby and all the workers here.

I have been a resident at this community for almost 3 years. I feel accepted and part of a big family. And have experienced first hand the evolution of the community since Karina has been here, she is caring and compassionate to all residents and staff. I truly enjoy leading an exercise program everyday to keep us active and encourage other residents to be involve and engaged. Karina and the management team really take the time to listen to us and know every resident in a personal level. This is a loving and caring place. We are family!

I have a family member at Carnegie Assisted living since 2017. Under the leadership of Karina Checo, and her wonderful staff they take great care of the residents and ensure all their needs are met in a timely manner. The place is kept clean and has a welcome feeling as soon as you step in. A special shout out to Danielle Batista, Director of Community Engagement, she always has time to listen and resolve issues that a resident is facing. I will not hesitate to recommend this facility to anyone who is looking for a place for their loved one.

I had my Aunt at Atrium/Spring Hills Princeton. The care was beyond AMAZING. Everyone from start to finish was compassionate and always put her best interest into consideration. I will recommend this facility to all my friends and family!!!

I just am posting this to laugh at Eileen Freese for aggressively defending the facility, but then leaving 1 star. This should balance it out a bit.

This has been such a bad experience for my mom who has been living there for 2 years and we are now removing her. The aides are just horrible. They leave her without helping her go to the bathroom, sometimes doesn't even get her food at night for dinner but claims they had given it to her. The food is so bad she is down to 94 pounds. The place never gets cleaned and is very dirty. It is very important to be an advocate for your parent because it is just horrible how they are treated. I have had so many conversations with Melissa who is in charge of the aides as well as the new head of Atrium but nothing changes. We are just so happy to get her out of there. I do not at all recommend this place to anyone.
