T. Tedesco 2020-07-22 A horror show. My mother’s was brought by ambulance to this facility after having to transfer for continues COVID care. The ambulance people had to wait while they actually made the bed she was admitted to. TWO HOURS later, sick as a dog...not a SINGLE Nurse, CNA or staff member had been to see her. TWO HOURS she sat sick, and alone. We had to physically go confront them at 9:00PM to get staff to her. They took Her a sandwich. They did not change her out of her hospital gown- they did no medical care and did not even administer ANY of her meds that night nor the next morning.. NUMEROUS calls by numerous concerned family we’re unanswered, and not one single call back. By the next morning my elderly mother was begging us to get her out of there and we called to let them know we were coming to remove her to please make the necessary arrangements. Once again FOUR hours worth of phone calls were unanswered and not a single call back. We literally had to show up at the place and threaten to call the sheriff. Unfortunately once we were able to get her out of the place we had to contact them to get an order for home health care which is where we brought her and the administrator of the facility told our Home Care Case Manager they C OULD write the order but THEY would NOT. 😳😳😳😳😳Even after denying her basic medical/human care they refused to assist my mother in getting HOME HEALTH CARE! They said they COULD but they WOULDN’T. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Reviewer 2018-04-03 University Village was OK and the day staff was knowledgeable, but the evening staff wasn't as knowledgeable. They also seemed short-staffed in the evening. I remember my mom complaining a little bit about the wait intervals because they were short-staffed. The paperwork was not always sufficient and kept up to date. They offered a pharmacy thing for them, but they would call me asking about prescriptions and medicines, so it was like they didn't read the paperwork or they didn't do good staff handoffs. The room in the assisted living area was large and very spacious, but it seemed a little bit dated. Some of the staff really shined as far as being able to recognize either myself or my mother. The physical therapy area was very nice. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Concerned couple 2016-11-07 Food was not very good at University Village, but my apartment is wonderful. It’s a nice, cozy 1-bedroom apartment. However, the rehab where my husband is needs to be redone; my husband’s room has got a broken wall, and his bathroom looks terrible. The elevators or the air conditioning takes a long time to get it repaired. I am/was a resident of this facility

Joanne118678750 2016-01-20 From what I saw at University Village, the staff was very involved with their clients. As I walked through, they had one group doing something and another group doing something else, like art activities. There was another activity where they were all sitting together but were around staff members who were doing the activity with them. It looked like they had two groups, and while I was there, the session was over and they switched; one group went over to the craft activity, the others went to a game activity. The rooms looked very nice, and it looked like they were doing some renovations, like fresh paint and carpeting. It was very nice, but I went to other places with which I was more impressed. I visited this facility

Tampa Tom 2015-08-14 When my mother became lonely after my father's death, she decided that it was time to interview retirement/life care facilities. After the process, we all agreed that University Village was by far the best choice. It has now been 14 years since we made that decision, and we can whole-hardily reconfirm our good choice. After 11 years in the independent living and now 3 years in assisted living, my mom is very happy and satisfied, and we are comfortable knowing she is being well cared for. We would highly recommend this facility to others. I am a friend or relative of resident

sgessman 2013-07-31 University Village was very nice and beautiful. The accommodation and the atmosphere would remind you of a five star hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean and beautiful. They had a card room and sewing room. They had a small auditorium where they brought in musicians from the local university and they showed movies and it was very nice. I visited this facility

Joycloud 2012-03-13 I visited a friend at Inn at University Village(the)on a daily basis for 3 months. It very clean. They had weekly housekeepers for the residents. They also offered meals daily but the residents could also cook in their apartments. They had a place the residents would gather and visit while waiting for the dining room to open. The staff was friendly and caring. The reception area was opulently decorated and inviting. The apartments were spacious. There was a sun room in every apartment. The residents could smoke in their apartments and outside. When family would come visit they were allowed to stay in the apartments. They had transportation available to residents who could no longer drive, but allowed them to have their own transportation as well. The outside grounds were well maintained and beautifully landscaped. It was a gated community with security personal, and the residents felt safe inside or outside. They allowed pets. Some of the residents had been living at this facility for as long as 22 years. This is the kind of retirement facility anyone would be comfortable living at. I am a friend or relative of a resident

Mary96657450 2014-11-03 My parents have chosen University Village, and all the paperwork is being processed and set. It was a very active community. There were lots of courses that were offered. There were 4 different dining rooms. There are 3 hospitals right in the area. The cost was good. Also, there are a few people of my parents’ ethnic background there which seemed to help a little bit. The staff was very helpful, very friendly, and very knowledgeable. I visited this facility

Edna6 2014-08-27 University Village was a beautiful facility. We saw two apartments, and then we had a nice lunch. We met one of the chefs in the dining room. The dining area was very nice. They only have one dining room, which is opened at noon. They give you your evening meal. There's coffee and donuts at breakfast time, but no breakfast and not served by the staff. There were quite a few people there for lunch. But then you pay for that separately. They have a salad bar, and they also have a menu. They had our names on the card on one of the tables welcoming us, which I thought was very nice. The food was good. The apartment has a bedroom, living room, bathroom, and kitchen. The one we looked at was just being refurbished. Newly painted, with new carpeting and new appliances in the kitchen. The kitchen was gorgeous. If my husband and I could not manage on our own at home, we could manage there. We didn't get into a great deal of their activities. They do have a bus that will take people who don't drive anymore, and also a chauffeured car. I have a friend who just moved there. They also have villas. They're across the street, but you have the same privileges as anyone living in the main building, and they are larger. I guess the thing that really slowed me down was the fee, which is $109,000. And then they have monthly fee for the apartment as well. You have one evening meal that is included in your maintenance for the month. I visited this facility

January18 2015-04-30 This was a horrible place. They gave my parent inaccurate medical information. They lined all the patients up in front of the nurses station with no other activities. There was screaming and yelling, bed alarms going off and other noise all the time. Some of the nurses and aids were heroic and tried to help but they had too many patients to care for to take much time with one patient. I hope no one else has to endure what my relative endured.

Kayla227 2012-11-27 When I went to visit my grate grandmother the place was very clean. I have visited nursing homes before and this one did not have that odd nursing home smell. The facilities were very well lit, the halls were free from clutter and the floors were freshly moped. Going into my grate grandmother's room I noticed that the room was very spacious. There was enough space for a nice sized patient to walk around without bumping into things. The staff was very friendly and quickly updated me on how my grate grandmother was doing. This was an impromptu visit yet still I found a lack of the scurrying that happens when one arrives at some other facilities unannounced. On her bed was fresh lining and she had on fresh, unsoiled clothes. Her nurse was able to answer all of our questions quickly and she showed a real concern for my grate grand mother's well being. Overall I am very well pleased. I visited this facility

James 2019-11-16 We're very happy with our tour of University Village and we have friends staying there now. They showed us several apartments and we were very pleased with them. They have quite a selection of activities, they have a place where you can play pool, they have a very nice indoor swimming pool there. There were numerous things you could do. There's also a game room, a chapel, they have a place to show movies, a place to play bingo, and there's a cafe that you can go to if you don't want to go to your regular meals. It has assisted living, apartments of your own, to the level where if you have Alzheimer's or dementia you'll be taken care of. They have very good staff. We had a meal there and we found the food to be very good, well-taken care of and they were very careful of how it was cooked. They have a selection of what you can eat.

Anonymous 2017-11-13 We visited University Village and planning to move there. It's very nice. I would say that it's deluxe retirement. They have amenities for their residents and nice apartments as well as homes that you can purchase. It's several floors. We liked it a whole lot. We had put in our payment to go there and you purchase your living space. That amount of money is a lot for some people that you have to provide to hold your living arrangement. They have a committee that will meet and make decisions regarding what they feel is the proper living arrangement for the individual. I only visited the independent care and had meals with them there; the food was good. It's a beautiful place. The staff is good because they have regular training. I didn't see anything wrong at all.

Franklin842788 2016-11-17 I was most impressed with University Village FL. It's a much more modern, newer, and larger facility. The rooms are very spacious and have a TV in each room, but it's more expensive. The people were very good, and they had a pretty good staff. They tried to work with me on financing and give me a discount, but it just didn't work out. I visited this facility

Cathy722001 2016-10-24 I visited and didn't like University Village. They’re under investigation, and the state is trying to shut them down. They weren’t prepared for me when I showed up and had no idea I was even going to be there. They had crafts, studio rooms, and residents sitting. It’s an old facility. I visited this facility

Doreen766075 2016-08-22 University Village was very nice. It was an 8-story building, and they took us to the 7th floor, which was beautiful. I really liked it, but at that time, it was a buy-in. Now, I understood that it could also be a rental. The room was gorgeous and brand new. It was a new floor with a new kitchen. Everything was on the 7th floor and was quite attractive. We liked the activities. We were very pleased with that one. I visited this facility

Caring109777250 2015-07-04 University Village is just the proper place you would want to be. You can do as little or as much as you want. The place is full of life instead of full of death. It is a very nice place. They have a pool, a gym room, and an auditorium, and they have all kinds of things going on. These people are busier than working people. It is something to really see. And the people that buy-in are entertaining and easy to get along with. There is a healthy mixture of all kinds of people, which I prefer. I don't want to be with one certain kind or group of people; I like the mixture of people. We made some wonderful friends up there, and it is just like going to a place where you meet people from all sorts of life and culture. It is wonderful. It is the best thing we have ever seen in our life, and the food is tremendous. I visited this facility

Dave and Marie 2015-03-16 My parents have lived at University Village for seven years. Up until recently, all members of our rather large family have been extremely please with this location for Mom and Dad. Our parents were happy and thriving. Since the ownership has changed hands (2014),we have noticed a decline in the facility and in the attention given to its residents. There seems to be more attention to outward renovations to draw new residents than to the care of those who already live there. We are hoping this focus is short term and will return to the quality care they previously experienced. I am a friend or relative of resident

Caring97387150 2014-11-22 The rooms at University Village seemed adequate just to cover your basic needs, nothing fancy. They were going through some renovations at the time, and the staff seemed a little stressed out. It was really not a good time to visit, so I didn’t get a good impression of this facility. For some people, it will work fine, but I did not like it. I visited this facility

Caring95475950 2014-10-16 I have visited University Village, and I really like it. They had really good food. What I just didn’t like was the idea that if you have pets you need to be on the bottom floor and you had to go out the back door, you could not get to the lobby, and I thought they were too controlling. I also don’t like the thought that you had to buy-in and pay for the monthly fees. That would be twice as costly as living at home. Their amenities are great, but the area that they were in wasn’t all that great. All in all, I really like the place. I visited this facility

Caring83398550 2014-05-28 I am at University Village now, and I chose it for the location. It is close to where my granddaughter works. I am very satisfied with it.

caring010402 2014-04-24 University Village has graduated facilities for assisted living and nursing. The appearance is very appealing. I think it’s a plus that you can bring your own furniture into the apartments. However, it doesn't have a laundry facility in the unit unless if you get something special. They have a lot of activities and amenities. There are concerts, they go to places, and have a guest speaker from the University of Florida. I have eaten there, food is average. I think if they did a better job with their food that would be a BIG improvement. I am a friend or relative of a resident

Willie W. 2013-09-23 University Village was a very clean place. Everybody was very nice. It had independent, assisting and nursing homes. You could go in to the independent and if you needed assisted, you could go to assisted living and then if you needed more care, you could go to nursing home. I visited this facility

caring0723113 2013-07-31 University Village FL was recommended by the hospital that my father was admitted before. They took him there and he stayed there for probably a year and he was treated well. When it got down to the last couple of days of my dad's life, the communication between myself and the nurses caring for him meant the most to me. They keep him comfortable.

My father lived here for 81/2 years. My father had a health scare and was found laying on bathroom floor after 14 hours. My father later was diagnosed with cancer of the brain. Very rude and uncaring staff. They saw the end and just turned their backs.

I was most impressed with University Village FL. It's a much more modern, newer, and larger facility. The rooms are very spacious and have a TV in each room, but it's more expensive. The people were very good, and they had a pretty good staff. They tried to work with me on financing and give me a discount, but it just didn't work out.

I visited and didn't like University Village. They’re under investigation, and the state is trying to shut them down. They weren’t prepared for me when I showed up and had no idea I was even going to be there. They had crafts, studio rooms, and residents sitting. It’s an old facility.

University Village was very nice. It was an 8-story building, and they took us to the 7th floor, which was beautiful. I really liked it, but at that time, it was a buy-in. Now, I understood that it could also be a rental. The room was gorgeous and brand new. It was a new floor with a new kitchen. Everything was on the 7th floor and was quite attractive. We liked the activities. We were very pleased with that one.

University Village was very nice, but their prices go up every year. They had some spacious rooms that were really nice. I liked the place. They had a lot of activities.

Beautiful facility on the renovated independent living side. The other property across the street with assisted living and memory care needs updating and cleaning. Not sure it would be appropriate for my parents hearing what the company is going through at this time.

University Village is just the proper place you would want to be. You can do as little or as much as you want. The place is full of life instead of full of death. It is a very nice place. They have a pool, a gym room, and an auditorium, and they have all kinds of things going on. These people are busier than working people. It is something to really see. And the people that buy-in are entertaining and easy to get along with. There is a healthy mixture of all kinds of people, which I prefer. I don't want to be with one certain kind or group of people; I like the mixture of people. We made some wonderful friends up there, and it is just like going to a place where you meet people from all sorts of life and culture. It is wonderful. It is the best thing we have ever seen in our life, and the food is tremendous.

My parents have lived at University Village for seven years. Up until recently, all members of our rather large family have been extremely please with this location for Mom and Dad. Our parents were happy and thriving. Since the ownership has changed hands (2014),we have noticed a decline in the facility and in the attention given to its residents. There seems to be more attention to outward renovations to draw new residents than to the care of those who already live there. We are hoping this focus is short term and will return to the quality care they previously experienced.

We chose University Village because we thought it had a good reputation and good features. The people have good quality, and the sanitation is good.

The rooms at University Village seemed adequate just to cover your basic needs, nothing fancy. They were going through some renovations at the time, and the staff seemed a little stressed out. It was really not a good time to visit, so I didn’t get a good impression of this facility. For some people, it will work fine, but I did not like it.

I have visited University Village, and I really like it. They had really good food. What I just didn’t like was the idea that if you have pets you need to be on the bottom floor and you had to go out the back door, you could not get to the lobby, and I thought they were too controlling. I also don’t like the thought that you had to buy-in and pay for the monthly fees. That would be twice as costly as living at home. Their amenities are great, but the area that they were in wasn’t all that great. All in all, I really like the place.

I am at University Village now, and I chose it for the location. It is close to where my granddaughter works. I am very satisfied with it. There are just a lot of activities that keep me busy. The food is very good, and there is a good variety. The staff is very efficient.

University Village has graduated facilities for assisted living and nursing. The appearance is very appealing. I think it’s a plus that you can bring your own furniture into the apartments. However, it doesn't have a laundry facility in the unit unless if you get something special. They have a lot of activities and amenities. There are concerts, they go to places, and have a guest speaker from the University of Florida. I have eaten there, food is average. I think if they did a better job with their food that would be a BIG improvement.

They have two dining rooms at University Village. It's a very, very nice place. We did like the place when we visited them. We were there for lunch and a tour. The food was good and the staff was nice. We have a friend that just moved in there about 3 months ago and she loves it there. Her apartment is very large.

University Village was a very clean place. Everybody was very nice. It had independent, assisting and nursing homes. You could go in to the independent and if you needed assisted, you could go to assisted living and then if you needed more care, you could go to nursing home.

University Village FL was recommended by the hospital that my father was admitted before. They took him there and he stayed there for probably a year and he was treated well. When it got down to the last couple of days of my dad's life, the communication between myself and the nurses caring for him meant the most to me. They keep him comfortable.
