Rosecastle of Citrus

My dad is happy at Rosecastle of Citrus. It’s very clean and well staffed. Everybody is really friendly. He doesn’t like the food. The community is around the corner from my mom, so she is familiar with it. They’re the most reasonably priced.

We were very pleased with Rosecastle of Citrus. We interacted with the staff and were very pleased with them. The rooms looked very nice to us but not spacious, yet more than adequate. They weren't really crowded or cramped. The dining area looked very good. What we liked best was the interaction with the personnel. Everybody that we passed would speak to us and seemed very friendly and very caring.

Our loved-ones are in the memory care unit of Rosecastle of Citrus. They LOVE the food and feel very safe and comfortable there. They think they are on vacation. Their family and friends are comforted to know that they are very well attended by healthcare professionals who are kind, patient and understanding, and who are experienced in working with those suffering from dementia. The facility is very well appointed and maintained. It is especially nice that those in the memory unit have their own outside area. It is a very large park-like setting in which the residents can relax and enjoy Florida's balmy weather, but which is totally safe and secure. I, personally, am an attorney whose office is located in a 55+ community in another State. I have met with clients in a number of different senior-living facilities and have found that those that even compare to the Rosecastle environment charge 2 to 3 times more. I am grateful that my family members are able to reside at this facility and would highly recommend it to others faced with the need of a safe, secure and caring place for their loved one(s).

Since the facility has change ownership/name to Rosecastle of Citrus I have noticed a great deal of change with the care, and level of happiness of those that live there. Kim and Kelly, the directors of nursing are excellent. All needs of the residents are met immediately. Kim works endlessly to provide excellent care, keep the residents healthy and happy, and is everywhere at once. She is there to answer any questions family members may have, or to help the staff. I have seen her passing medications with or without other staff to help. I have seen her making beds, taking out garbage, and helping my mom to the bathroom. I feel comfortable knowing my mom is in the best hands possible, as long as Kim is there. I also have noticed EMS is never in the building anymore! Proof that whatever the staff is doing to get the residents healthy, is working. If anyone needs a place for their loved one, I encourage you to come to Rosecastle of Citrus. You will not be sorry!

We like how the rooms at looked at Rosecastle of Citrus, and that made us choose the place. It is large. The staff is fine and knowledgeable, and they do proper care. They have bingo and different activities. The dining area is fine, and everybody fits in there. There is no problem at all that I know of, and it’s very clean.

I am pleased with Nature Coast. The staff is good. They are taking care of my wife, and I have no complaints. They are up to date in all areas, and they have all sorts of activities.

We were not that impressed with Nature Coast Lodge. It was strictly an assisted living and there were no nursing facility and no easy-living facility there. Nevertheless, it was a well-maintained and clean facility. Also, from my standpoint, the location was good. However, that's probably the only thing that we really like about it.

We toured Nature Coast Lodge. The facility looked beautiful. The area was beautiful. The surroundings, where the residents might be able to walk, are absolutely beautiful. I spoke to one or two of the residents who actually lived there. They were coming out from dinner. They said it was very nice. They were very happy there. The people, the staff helping to see and give out the dinners looked very happy and jolly. What I didn't like about that place is we were able to just walk in. There was really no security. There was nobody at the front desk. Nobody stopped us. Nobody asked us who we were, what we were doing there. That, to me, when you don't have security, is a concern, especially when you have older people living in this facility. If any of the rooms were open, somebody could walk into a room, so that, I do not like. There seemed to be a security problem.
