"I really liked Christian Care Communities of Hopkinsville. My wife didn't like the size of the shower (it was somewhat small), and the fact that it only had a one-car garage and just a single drive. If you had two cars, you had to park one behind the other one in the garage, so that would've been a little bit aggravating getting in and out. I liked the fact that it only had a certain monthly payment that included our tax, insurance, maintenance, and utilities. That way, I pretty much knew how much I was going to have each month to pay. It was very clean. When someone moves out, they completely renovate the house, refurnish it, and update it before the next one moves in. It'll be all new. We looked at pretty much just the houses that were available. We didn't try the food, but they serve meals there."

"Friendship House of Hopkinsville is operated in connection with the Christian church. It's quite large, it has apartments of different sizes, and it also has a nursing home on the same campus. Of all those I've visited, that is the best. You buy into the independent living apartments, so when you pass on you have something you own, and I like that part of it. They seem friendly people. The place is very well maintained. They have activities that appeal to me, including religious ones. If I ever have to go to one, that's the one at the moment I would choose for myself, but I'm not ready for that yet. If I could get my friend up here I would. I went over and investigated it myself. I was taken on a tour of it and that was before we went into quarantine. The staff was excellent. The apartments were very well maintained, they had considerable space in them, and the finances were better than what I've seen elsewhere. I would give them a very high rating on what I've seen. I did not inspect the nursing home itself. They had bible class, all kinds of parties, constant activities that people can go on, trips, and things like that. On the whole, it's a very good place. It's not too far from the central part of the city. It's maybe a mile or a mile and a half from the downtown, but an ideal location. It's by far the best thing I've seen. I prefer the ones that are operated by religious groups. The ones that are operated for profit seem to just cut cost at every possible opportunity while the others try to get service."

"Mom is at Vantage Pointe Village at Ashland City. I love that it feels like home. It's modern. I like the staff, the location, and everything about it. They have been exceptional. They are a great team of people and my mom is adjusting well to them. She's very anxious and they work with her to calm her down. They are getting to know her. They involve her with things and keep her active. She feels their warmth and welcome. I ate some of my mom's meals on Sunday and they looked good. She loves the food and is asking constantly for more. She has a good appetite. So, I think the food is pretty good. It's a beautiful facility. I don't know how old it is. I know it was probably built in less than ten years or so, but it's modern, up-to-date, clean, very nice, and well-kept. They do bingo. They dance with them as a part of their exercise. They have a helping hand where if they want to help fold clothes or do little things with their hands, they do that. Last night, they had wine and cheese. Today, they're doing the Thanksgiving dinner for them as well as with family. They've had Veteran's Day lunch and they take them out to Wal-Mart or appointments if they need to. They keep them active. I looked at some other facilities here and they were well over our price, and the facilities didn't look as nice and the rooms weren't as big as the ones in Vantage Pointe Village at Ashland City. All of their rooms at Vantage Point are private (mom is in a private room). It's beautiful. It's warm, friendly, and at home, and she thinks she's home because she'll sit there with her feet up on the table and say "All you guys come on in". It's very nice and relaxing, and very homely."

"My mom has already found a place. It is the Oak Brook Retirement Living. My mom was from Erin so she wanted to be there. I go there every week. The facility is very clean. They don't really do much for their residents, but they do cook for them. My mom has two meals a day, a lunch and a dinner. They clean her room once a week, wash all of her clothes and linens, and also change her beddings. It is a great place for my mom. "
