The Willows - Living Branches Senior Living Community

I visited Dock Meadows. It was a nice place. The rooms were very clean and well-kept. But they required $1,250 application pay and a $5,000 entrance pay and I didn't like that although they say it was for doing the carpet and repainting of the room.

Residents are provided with many different activities to do through out the week. Events are both in the facility or a bus trip away. The staff takes very good care of their residents.

This is a smaller community which gives a feeling of welcome and being at home. From my visits I would say the atmosphere is very comfortable and there is a family feel between the staff and the residents. A particular visit which stands out, had me grinning as an aide and a resident were quite happily sharing a box of chocolates in a sitting area. It would have appeared they were old buddies.This facility is geared more toward those who need more basic assistance, however, if the need arises for more skilled nursing or memory help...one of it's sister facilities can be brought into action.I would highly recomment Dock Meadows.
