Assisted Living Communities in Murfreesboro, TN

"I toured Harmony at Mt. Juliet. It was excellent, and I got a very good tour. I was there for over an hour and a half and saw all three phases that they offer. They were very accommodating and gave me all the information and literature that I requested. The accommodations were excellent, one bedroom, two bedroom, and all kinds of events that they have. They did a thorough job of explaining all of the options available to us and the cost. I liked all that they offered, as far as senior living, moving from independent living in your own home to what they have there, from bowling alley to movie theater to a lot of activities that go on there. It's only about four years old. The facility is new and very clean. They offered all kinds of options if we chose to move in. You could put early down payments on a design, whether it be a one-bedroom or two-bedroom that you might wish to live in. Whenever they opened and were available, they would notify you, and if you were ready to move, you could. If you wanted to be put on hold for another few months, you could, so it gave you a lot of options there."

"American House in Brentwood was a very, very nice facility. The staff seemed warm and caring. The executive director gave me a tour and I felt very confident that she cared about the residents. They have a physical therapy room, a nice courtyard that the residents could go and sit in, and a room where there was a piano."

"I toured Cloverland Park Senior Living. They do a wonderful job. It's a great place. It is conveniently located. It's a newer facility, so everything is fresh in it. The room I saw was a roomy studio compared to what my mom is in now. So the studio was nicer, the bathrooms nicer, and it had a full-size refrigerator. The staff was very helpful. The building was outstanding. The outdoor space is wonderful. It was set up very privately. It's large and it has a little putting green. It has all kinds of places just to sit around outdoors like a television and a fireplace. The outside space is very nice."

"When I got to Harmony at Brentwood, the staff was kind of in the middle of something, but she took time out to show me the area and show me a room and show me the different amenities they got there, so it was excellent. The room was very nice and very spacious. She showed me different floor plans. She took me to a room where they had little meetings and where you can have birthday parties and stuff for the resident. I didn't get to see much of the outdoor space. What I've seen mainly was the front part, but she told me she wanted me to come back with my mother, to call her and let her know, and she would be more than glad to show me more of the place. They had a little area where residents can go and have their breakfast and just mingle. It seemed excellent, and it was one of the newer facilities. The dining area was nice. She took me to the hair salon where the residents can get their hair and nails done."

"My mother moved into American House Lebanon's assisted living. They have good nurses, and they're personal with her, which helps her a lot. The staff there is really good. I have not tried the food, but I've seen my mother eat, and it looks fine. It's decent-looking and she seems to like it. For activities they have certain things. Every week they have something for them, like bingo and stuff like that."

"I was very pleased with The Harpeth at Harmony Hills. We were touring for our mother who was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. My family and I have been going back and forth on the idea of moving our mother into a facility. After visiting the facility multiple times, the staff and residents were all very welcoming and most importantly, looked happy. This is what I would want for my mother, let alone any of my family members. I highly consider visiting the Harpeth at Harmony Hills. It is absolutely wonderful!"

"We looked at Belvedere Commons of Franklin. It was lovely and decorated for the holiday. We were looking for a smaller place, and it was nice and adequate. The staff who helped me during the tour was the best. It was Latoya, and she was wonderful. We loved her. She was friendly, helpful, and adorable. She was so inviting and engaging. She told us everything we wanted to know, and she was great. They were preparing for Thanksgiving. They gave us a piece of pie, and it was delicious. They have their own chef there. It smelled good. It all looked really good. It looked well-kept."

"I toured one of Carriage House Inn's apartments and I was impressed. I'm on a waiting list. The apartment was very spacious. They have light housekeeping coming in once a week and that's included in $1745. The staff who toured me was very informative and explained things to the fullest. They gave me a big folder with all the information and what's covered and everything. The staff was very good and very professional."

"Wilson Manor was very nice and clean. The people were friendly. I was impressed. They showed us an apartment that somebody was currently living in. It was very nice. They had activities. They had somebody come in and do hair cutting. They had a doctor on staff that came in once a week."

"We toured Charter Senior Living of Franklin and we loved it. It was just really beautiful, modern, and well-maintained. The staff was very caring and professional. The people that we met were just great. The rooms were not huge, but sufficient, modern, and ready to go. We saw the menu and it looked good."

"Charter Senior Living of Hermitage was clean, it smelled nice, and the residents looked happy. The house that my brother would be going into was nice. I couldn't believe how big it was actually, it surprised me. The dining hall was very pretty, very nice. People were eating and so forth. They had therapy, and they went to the room with the patients. They had a transitional process, as people get older and get worse, they can move up to assisted living and then to memory care and they never have to leave the facility. I like that. The staff was very nice, very nice, I was very impressed with it. It was very nice. If we can afford it, that's where we're going."

"We toured The Rivers at Maryland Farms. It's a beautiful location, and I love the facility, and I love the girl who was walking us through the facility. Everybody was so sweet and kind. They all seemed happy. We had an opportunity to talk to some people who lived there, and they were very pleased with the facility, but it was a 45-minute drive from us, which was just a little too far. We met with Sidney, the admissions director, and Katie, the activities director. They were all just as sweet as could be. The facilities were amazing. They had monitors on the floor that detect a fall, and then the cameras in the rooms would have picked up on that motion detectors once they determined that somebody fell, and they would be able to get to them a lot quicker. That was a great selling point. The rooms were beautiful. The rooms are well maintained and taken care of, and they have all their in-house staff for cleaning."

"My mother is in Vitality Living Franklin. It's the right size community. Not too small, not too big. The services are there to meet her needs and the staff is concerned with her well-being. The main area of the assisted living is kind of hardwood and their bedroom is carpeted. They have things and refrigerators and that sort of stuff. They have whatever the residents are looking for. They kind of pull the residents and some of the high school folks come over to do some of their performances from the Franklin High School as well as just general bingo and elderly calisthenics and that sort of stuff. I've eaten there and the food was pretty good on the assisted living side. On the memory care side, it could improve. Value seems to be on par with everybody else."

"I visited Brookdale Green Hills. It was great, and I really liked the place. However, it was a little far from my family, and it was very expensive. It was like walking into a hotel, the tour was very nice, and they had several types of rooms. It depends on how much space you want. They had a 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and a studio apartment. It's a small apartment, with a living room/kitchen area together, and the bathroom and bedroom separate. They had a small snack bar where you could get light breakfast in the morning, an exercise room, and a computer room. The staff I met was very friendly."
