The Village Senior Living was fairly outdated, but they're doing renovations. It needed some work, and the layout right now is not the most accessible and inviting. The seniors didn't look as kept and as happy as all the other places, which might be because they're renovating, and the staff might have been down a little bit that day. The person during the tour was nice, friendly, and very informative. The food looked okay, and it was open bar day, so most of the residents were participating with that. They had an exercise room, a craft area, a reading area, and a TV area. The lady was very apologetic about the condition of things at the time.

When my Aunt first moved into facility, they did a nice job. However, facility has gone down hill over the last few years. Medications are not brought to patients consistently-resulting in 2 hospitalizations for high blood pressure in last 2 weeks. Baths are not given on the schedule, often Aunt doesn't get bath at all for more than a week. Kitchen has run out of food. Emergency bell does not get answered.

I liked the Village, including the rooms, and the plan for my father-in-law's care. I liked the pricing, because it's one price for moving in and an additional amount for everything, depending on your additional needs. I liked the location, it's close to us so we could visit him, or he could come home and go back anytime. They have different sizes of rooms available. We could also take him there for a day or two, if we need a break, or if he needs to get adjusted to the place. That was the best part, and I think that's a great plan.

I like The Village Senior Living, but it was inappropriate for my friend. I loved it though. If she could have gone there -- if she had been able to walk and just needed assisted living, not full time nursing -- that’s where I would have loved to have her go. When I sell my house, I’m very seriously considering going there. I really like it. I saw 2 different studios and a 1-bedroom. I thought that the planning of it was well thought out. The main dining room was on one floor; it was accessible with the elevator. If you couldn’t walk very far, they have a separate smaller dining room area on another floor. I was extremely impressed with The Village. The staff was extremely professional, very pleasant, and truly seemed to enjoy her work, which I think is always a plus. All the people had smiles on their faces.

I decided to move into The Village. I liked the layout and the people working here. It was inexpensive compared to some of the others I saw which were prohibitive. They have all kinds of activities going on all the time. I met the person in charge of the activities committee, and I signed up to teach some things. I like to teach crafts and sew, and I've met people who do both here. I'll be able to volunteer and do some good in the community. The food is wonderful. They give you too much -- which is my only complaint -- but the variety and the way it's prepared is just great. The people who work here were so nice to me when I came, and everybody went out of their way to make you feel welcome, so it's great. Here, you have enough room for walkers and still get around wherever you need to go.

I visited The Village and it's a much smaller facility. It has different levels of care and the fourth floor was the retirement place which right now, if I was interested, that would be it. It seemed nice, but it just didn't seem like a place I would be comfortable with.
The food was very good. I just had a sandwich. Everything seemed good, the servers were very helpful and they checked right away if you needed anything else.
They had in-room meals, if you needed it. They also have different dining rooms which you could choose from. There weren't designated seating, it was open seating.

I wasn't impressed with The Village. The location is kind of difficult to get into, and the area is not that good. The building is kind of old. I ate there. Compared to the others, I think I'll give them a 4 for food. The staff is average but nice.

The Village Senior Living is a very favorable, nice facility. My relative really loves it there. The place is very clean and very well kept, and I am very well pleased with it. The staff are very courteous, very professional, very friendly, and outgoing. The other residents are very friendly, too. The meals are very well-prepared. They have a very nice dining area, and sometimes there's music in it. It has individualized table service with waiters who come and take the orders.

The staff was very friendly at The Village Senior Living. I went to their Mother's Day brunch. After the brunch, they took us on a tour of the facility. They were informative and friendly. We looked at a one-bedroom and a studio. They were clean and adequate. It is an older building, but it looks like a nice facility. The residents looked happy.

The Village was recommended to me so I toured this facility plus 4 others in the county. Of all the facilities that were shown to me, The Village’s Community Relations Director Kayla, was the most efficient yet compassionate; knowledgeable and genuine. She explained everything clearly and pleasantly plus gave a step by step process for the family in order to go forward with the multi-faceted process of a move for my mom. I felt comfortable and grateful to speak to someone of her care giving experience. Other professionals that I spoke to seemed more interested in getting our money rather than focusing on the care needs of a dementia patient. The rest of The Village staff were just as welcoming and seemed very happy at their jobs. In other facilities, some of the workers acted like they felt that they were overworked and underpaid. Kayla has excellent communication skills to help you navigate the difficult decisions involved with finding a facility for an aging parent. I will definitely look at The Village again, when it comes time for my husband and I to find an assisted living facility.

The Village Senior Living was a nice facility. The people there were dynamite. The staff working at this place from the maintenance all the way up to the top was great. We have no problem with them. As a whole, it wasn't bad but it just didn't fit my parent.
