"We went to look at Elm Crest Manor. It's a nice facility. They are not willing to do my mom's level of care. It would require a lot of help from my dad, and I don't think he can do it. The staff was good and showed us what we needed. They were thorough and prompt. The rooms were beautiful and set up wonderfully for older people. They have a wonderful meal program. They have gathering rooms where they get together, do puzzles, and play games in the afternoons. It's all nice and ground level, so it's easy to access."

"My husband is currently at Sunset Drive - A Prospera Community. The people who work there -- the social worker and everyone else -- were all wonderful. They're always available, and you can do either an in-person or a telephone conference with the therapist or the doctor. It's an attractive and clean place, and he's happy there. If he's happy, I'm happy for him too. The staff is very cheerful and helpful. One day when I was there, a woman asked me if I was hungry. I said yes, and then she brought me some lunch. They seemed to be very caring and helpful people. They play bingo twice a week, but my husband's not interested in it. I play it, though, and they do haircuts every six weeks. The only thing is there are just a lot of brown colors; they could be a little more cheerful."

"Missouri Slope is a new facility. We toured it and it's set up for a lot of things. It has the list and everything in all the rooms. It's just a good, well-built facility. It's set up nice. Everything was state-of-the-art. The staff was very professional. They showed us rooms where we could meet as a family, and they had a separate lunchroom. They had all kinds of amenities, the physical therapy room, and the exercise room."
