My wife has been here since August and I'm very pleased with the overall care that she's receiving. They have a registered nurse on 24-hours a day.

My mother is in a studio apartment. I’d say the rooms were adequate. They had a bathroom and a bedroom. We’ve eaten there with my mom. That their meals are very healthy, and the food is good.
They have activities planned throughout the day. When the weather is better, they go out on a bus. They have music and sing-alongs, and they do activities inside the facility. They’re very good about helping the residents to do things that they’re familiar with like folding napkins and help setting the tables. They have little activity stations to keep the residents engaged.
The staff there is wonderful. It was a very hard decision to move, and once my mom got into the independent care, we realized quickly that she needed to be in memory care. The staff were very supportive and caring and helped us to make that transition.

We heard some good news about this community, and it’s just a few blocks from my house. They seemed to be pretty good; particularly they were really good for dementia care. The rooms were OK -- shared rooms -- and it appeared clean.

The staff just wasn't as open and friendly. They showed us around, but we just didn't like it. The apartments weren't as nice and weren't as spacious. The dining room was nice, but not big. I saw people playing cards.

The friendliness of the people and the staff is what we liked the most at this facility. The food is good; it's the normal stuff that you fix for the elderly. I am very pleased with this facility. The facility provides outings, they get together to watch TV, they have an excellent library, and they play bingo. Compared to the other facility my friend is at, this facility is definitely outstanding.

It is really clean, and the people there were really nice. It seemed like a pretty good layout, something that she would like. The staff seemed like they were all professional. We spoke with the chef in the dining area, and we spoke to a couple of people who were heads of different areas, too. They have outside activities where they take you to shopping centers. They have prayer rooms, arts and crafts, a library, and a place where they can get their hair done. They pretty much have everything. I think it was a new facility, so the rooms were pretty, nice, and clean. They remodeled and spruced up a couple of different units. To me, it was nice.

The community was very warm and welcoming. The rooms were very nice, and they were apartment-style rooms. The staff answered all my concerns. They had exercise, an exercise room, and puzzles. The dining room appeared to be very pretty and organized. The residents appeared well cared for and happy.

It is an excellent facility. The person we work with, Rick, was absolutely wonderful. The staff is very friendly and professional. The one bedroom was a little bit small but still very nice. We went to lunch with my mother and the food was excellent. They take them to their doctor's appointments. I know they have games throughout the day.

My sister moved in. She's very satisfied, very happy, and very content. She has a small 1-bedroom apartment, a little kitchen, living room, good size bathroom, and bedroom which is sufficient. I've seen the list of activities and they keep you very busy, she seems to enjoy the food, and the staff is very good, anytime we have a problem, or need help, they've all been right there. They have a library, a big area for activities and a bistro. It's very good value.

It was resort-like in a beautiful location in the city. The rooms were slightly different and more of an apartment but comparable to the others. The person who accommodated us was hurried and answered questions but did not try to elicit responses.

My mom lives here. I love the staff and the way they compassionately care for the residents. Clearly, the well-being of the residents is a priority, and I appreciate that because my mom deserves that. The facilities are lovely and very reasonably priced for what the residents get. I feel very secure knowing my mom is in capable hands, and more importantly, mom feels safe and happy.
