"It is a very big community. They have several floors. It is the best one I've visited. It's very clean and very well structured. The staff was very nice and seemed to be concerned about our situation. However, in the end, they couldn't help us because of my brother's criminal record in the past. The dining area was set up like a hotel. The private room was nice and roomy, and it had a bathroom. The residents all seemed happy and engaged in whatever activity they were doing."

"Having been through this process with other relatives, I was not looking forward to it again. However, Angels did an incredible job helping me. Dayna from the beginning and Angela throughout. They were amazing. There are clearly no words to describe how amazing Jennifer. She listened to me on my bad days after my father took his life, she laughed with me on my good days, and the main think was that she took care of the "little things" that my mother needed when others were too busy. She is truly an angel and I will NEVER forget her. "

"We have chosen Promise Point Senior Living for my mother. It's very nice, very clean, and well-staffed. Everyone there was very kind. We liked the particular setup for memory care. It was different than the other places and our mother was most comfortable there. She seemed relaxed. She was interacting with the residents when we were taking the tour. She responded to everybody around her, and that mattered to us. We sat and talked with Paula for a while before we went on the tour. We also went back, and we had lunch there. Once again, our mother seemed relaxed and comfortable, and she was responsive to people. The other places that we toured were very nice, but she did not have the same reaction. We have chosen a private room. They call it a studio, but it's just a large room with a bathroom. She can fit her bed, her TV, and her recliner. They had more activities than my mom is going to be able to keep track of. If she is bored or has nothing to do, that is not their fault; it would be hers. They have active attendance there. They participate in things. They also have many outings that mom can participate in. They have a physical therapist there. They have a room with stationary bicycles, and that would be excellent for my mom. They have a walking club. They take care of everything. I am also comparing it to a home that my mother-in-law was in, in Maryland. Every single other thing they charged her for, and this one doesn't. Things are all included. My sister and I were able to have lunch with our mother, and it was good. They had cookies, and they were excellent."

"My mother will be moving into Angels Senior Living at New Tampa memory care unit. So far, so good. We have to move our own furniture in, but the room was clean and the size was good for us. The staff was nice, and they have good service. They have activities, but very simple ones. They have everything inside. They're pretty new."

"My friend will move into Brookdale Bayshore. First of all, the view is beautiful and every single room has a view of the bay. It's got a great outdoor pool, kitchen, and a dock that even provides fishing poles. Everybody was nice. It's a beautiful facility, and everything seemed just first-class. Anna's great, and she'd been my point of contact throughout the whole process. She's been readily available and has answered all my questions. They invited us to have lunch one day. We sat in on lunch, and they provided a glass of wine for us, and that was great. The menu options I saw looked extensive, and all of them sounded good. They do have a beauty salon. They have the library. They have a whole lot of different functions going on. They have live music and happy hours. They have outings where they go to different places."

"My grandmother was here for 5 years and my dad is currently here. The facility is clean. The staff is very friendly and the office staff is very knowledgeable. They keep in close contact with the family about their residents. "

"We toured Savannah Court of Brandon. Everything was nice. It's a little bit older but it was in very good condition. The rooms were nice. They had a hair salon for women. They had physical therapists that came in there too. We didn't eat there. It's a nice facility, and the people were very nice."

"Hawthorne Inn of Brandon was very nice. It was easily accessible. They offer transportation, and they bring the provider to the residents. You don't have to worry about picking up your loved one. The doctor comes there. They've got programs, activities, and field trips. The two staff members I met were fine, but I didn't meet a lot of staff as I did at the other place."

"My mom has been placed at Aldea Green. It's very nice. They do a good job keeping the grounds nice. When you first walk in, there's an area where residents can gather to talk or read the paper or whatever they want to do, and there's always people there. In other places I've gone into you don't see residents around as much, but you always see residents when you go to Aldea Green, and they all seem to be very happy. The staff is great. They take very good care of my mom. They're very attentive. They're always very pleasant. They go in and check on her very frequently. If she is not out doing one of the activities, they'll go in and check on her to see if she's okay. And if she doesn't show up for a meal, they go in to find out why she's not there and if she wants to go down. They're very attentive. My mom goes to bingo, they do crafts, and they have entertainment come in twice a week. They'll take them to stores. The dining room is very nice. It's like walking into a restaurant. My mom seems to like the food. I've only had one meal there and it was good. And they make it part of their job to know every single resident by name. Every one of the staff knows my mom by name. "

"I toured Sodalis Tampa for my friend. They were very good and very nice. The facilities seem very well run and they have rehab people there. They had doctors if they needed them. That place had like 120 residents. It looked more like a professional type of place. You brought in your bed and your dresser or whatever. They had a cheaper way of doing it because it was like two people in one facility where there are two separate bedrooms and then they have like a small area with a refrigerator and a small living area, I guess you'd call it a den. They had a courtyard, a library, and a rehab area. The staff was very good and very informative. They helped me a lot. The facility looked good. Everything looked good."

"We like The Colonnade at Carrollwood because the aesthetics were great. It's a really beautiful facility and there were a lot of activities. Everyone that we talked to was really happy that they chose to be there. The staff did a great job of engaging the residents. Everybody was very friendly with each other. They were very outgoing and overall, it felt more like a resort than a retirement community. I ate there with my father and the food was excellent. The menu choices were great. He's super excited to move there. They have bingo, poker nights, and Jeopardy tournaments where they travel to other assisted living facilities. Sometimes they'll come in. It's kind of a multi-facility tournament with Jeopardy. They've also got church services for multiple different denominations and outings. They've just got a bit of everything going on."

"I chose The Colonnade at Northdale because they are the best fit for my friend. It's very welcoming. These people are wonderful. The ratio is better. Better food. They got my friend up. He is walking and talking normally. He's not perfect yet, but the change in two weeks has been spectacular. I can't say enough about this place. It's wonderful. My friend has a very nice room. He can have his own furniture. But they also provided a package that we could use. He has his own bathroom and his shower. The dining room is nice, so he gets some socialization. They have been very responsive to any of our concerns. I've been there when he has been eating and the food is good. Nobody is ever completely as happy as they were at home, but overall, he is doing much better. The nursing director that's over that section is very responsive. She was very concerned when my friend first came in. She is good with the families and with the patients. We have had several people come in from outside that were very pleased, too. I think it's pretty good value for the money."

"We toured The Crossings at Riverview. I like the location. It's in my area. I don't live too far, maybe five minutes from there. The facility was beautiful, and they had everything that my mom would actually need for her stay: the therapy and the doctors. I liked everything that came with the facility - three meals and the care that she would have. If she needed someone, she had to just push the button, and someone would come and see how she was doing. They also check on them periodically during the day, which I like, because you never know if they could even get to the button to push it. So, by checking on them during the day, they would know if something's wrong, even if they couldn't push the buttons. The staff was very professional, caring, and friendly, so they put my mom at ease, and that was really good. They gave her a blanket because it was pretty chilly there, which I thought was very nice and comforting. So, it was a good visit. It's a good structure. It looks very sturdy, and it's laid out pretty well. The only thing was they had a nice balcony on the second floor where you can look out over the water, but you can't see the water because there were so many trees, and they can't do anything about the trees because it's a protected preserve, but it was very nice."
