I visited this facility

I like Residence at University Heights very well, but they don't offer any services I would probably be looking for down the road. It is just a place to live for senior living. I ate a noon meal at their location, and it was very, very good. They had lasagna, which is one of my favorites. I met the cook and the director, and they were very pleasant and helpful in answering questions. They did a good job of presenting their units. There is a variation in the size, and there is comfort and a feeling of home, but they're very different.

Provider Response

We have a lot of relationships with in home care community and Hospice that would help with needed services in the future we would like anyone who moves in to be able to make this there forever home if we can keep them safe and provide them option of services outside independent living
