  • Definitely a place to visit and a place to take care of your loved ones, no doubt.

    Any questions I've ever had, they've taken care of and answered right away. I checked out other places, and their cost is very reasonable in comparison. It's like a nice hotel, very clean, very organized. They have a nice, roomy cafeteria. They seem to offer a lot of activities. They're very good to my loved one. I would recommend anybody to go check them out, especially compared to other places that I viewed. They've been very compliant in meeting our needs. The admissions person, the first person you ever interact with in the community, is especially good and very knowledgeable. She helps out everybody. She talked to me quite a bit to get everything organized, and I see how much she helps other families. She's such a good person, probably the best in the entire organization.

  • I Pray at 66 Years Old I Hope I Don't Have to Go Into an Assisted Living

    I would tell others the room is nice. The staff are good about returning calls to families. It is very hard judgement of the community due to the pandemic. We have been able to have window visits, and they have started outside visits for families. The biggest expense and headache is medication management and I feel stuck in the middle.

    Our experience with this community was horrible, we felt that our loved one was neglected. She wasn't there very long but the last weekend she was there she laid in her filth from Friday night until Saturday afternoon until she was taken to the hospital for being sick and she ended up passing away a couple weeks later. We were very disappointed in her medical care. The community was kept clean for the most part, The reason we chose this community was the view, it seemed fine we were there. The activities did however seem good. The room our loved one was in was very nice, we had no complaints.
