"My mom has been at Villages at Skyline Pines for several years and we love this place. I can’t say enough good things. The staff is amazing and so kind to my mom. The administration has always listen to any random concerns we have and addressed them immediately. When we see other residents they look happy, and well cared for. They are doing everything right."

"Westhills Village is top-notch. Everything is nice. The staff who gave the tour was very helpful and open-minded. She took us around to see anything we wanted to look at. We saw aerobics in the swimming pool. They showed us the shop where they have all their power tools and stuff like that. They have a large library and activity rooms. It was well laid out."

"My mother stayed at Westhills Village when she had a cracked hip. The location was great. The staff and being there was all a very high 5 out of 5. It was a very nice facility. There were great activities for her. She's pretty limited, not being able to do much of anything. She can't walk or anything, but they get her where she needs to go. They had soups, salads, hot foods, cold cereals, puddings, and drinks. It was all good."

"Our mother has been in this home for six months and we couldn’t be happier with the care she has received. We chose Morningstar because it is a home rather than a facility. Their small numbers allow for alot of individual care. The staff is very attentive and loving. The meals prepared at the home by Holly are first rate. The residents are kept busy throughout the day with different activities. Our mom is now part of their family and they are now part of ours. "

"I went to Good Samaritan Society - St. Martin Village. They were very friendly and very helpful. They gave me all kinds of information without my having to ask. They were upfront and the person who gave the tour took me to see the swimming pool, which is unusual. So that was nice. The food was good. I ate lunch there and I was impressed with the food and the service was good in the restaurant. It's restaurant-like eating, so it's very nice. And, the apartments were nice and roomy. I just remember they had so many services and everything. They have laundry in each apartment. And so that's awesome. Most of them don't have that."

"I like Fairmont Grand Senior Living, but my father is not ready to go to a retirement home. The staff were very informative. The food was good. It's nutritious and healthy, and they're all cooked right at the site. They have a gym, a salon, and a really nice area that offers coffee and snacks."

"We like The Victorian because it's a small community. We would consider it if we needed to look for assisted living in the future. It's homey since it's smaller, and they have a nice outdoor space, and it's easier to get around if you have kind of an issue with that. The staff was very welcoming and informative. It was sort of a large home; it looked like a nice place."

"I was not impressed with Golden Living Center - Bella Vista because it seemed kind of old and run down. It looked like they were pretty well staffed because I saw a number of people who seemed trained for memory care. I was quite impressed with the staff. "

"My father has been at Fountain Springs Healthcare Center for almost 6 months now. He had physical therapy, but he's out of physical therapy now, so he's walking on his own with a walker. He is in a shared room, but he doesn't have anybody in there with him right now. The staff there is great. It is a wonderful place and we love it. They have an activity room and they do a lot in there with them. I've tried the food and it is good. They have bingo. They have other things they do. I go see him regularly and he puts a lot of puzzles together. They supply him with research books and he does those all the time."

"My brother is currently staying at Avantara North. They have professional physical therapy technicians who live on-site. They also have nurses and medical personnel right there in the facility. It's a stressful situation, but everybody there was helpful. Somebody there even helped him get his Medicare application done. He couldn't have gone there because we couldn't afford to until he got approved. I think they did it for him in just a couple of days, within a week, too, and that made our decision to help him stay there. They're just great people. They do everything, like give him his medication on time and bathe him. He is staying in a two-person room. They're just wonderful people to work with. I didn't meet anybody who was not polite. He eats three meals a day, and says he doesn't like it; he only likes pizza and fried chicken, but he's pretty stubborn. I've seen the meals myself, and they're all balanced with vegetables, meats, and lettuce. Everything they need is all planned out for every person there every day. I had some meatloaf, potatoes, and gravy, and I thought it was excellent. I've never seen the place dirty, but we had some pretty bad snowstorms, and they only shoveled up just a path. It was big enough for wheelchairs to get through from the street parking lot to the building, but that was the only thing I ever noticed that was out of place. I thought they'd have somebody come in and completely get rid of all the snow, but we had a lot of snow there for about a month, too. They have live bands and school bands come in. The first day I went there to drop my brother off, I met Elvis Presley, who was in the band. They do that in the activities room every day. Of all the places I talked to, it was the most inexpensive one. I don't know a lot about the program, but they're accepting my brother's Social Security, and they're covering the rest of his bill to live there. If our government and the system are willing to pick up the balance after his social security, to help him live out the rest of his life there, I think it would be great."
