We toured Villa St. Francis Assisted Living. They were very organized, and someone was waiting for us to give us the tour. She went through everything. She gave us a brochure listing the services and cost. The room wasn't big, but it was nice. It had a small refrigerator and a big closet. The bathroom size was good. It was a very clean place. They have a beauty salon, a church, and a chapel, which is nice.

Villa St Francis was OK, but I would have liked a more open concept. The rooms were kind of small, more like a nursing home. The staff was very knowledgeable, and the dining area was very nice. The residents were doing music while I was there.

I think Villa St. Francis was an excellent place. We have chosen it because it meets Mary's needs specifically. We have spoken to at least a dozen residents, and they all said they're happy that they're there. I am very pleased. It appeared to be managed very well. They took great care in caring for the residents and knew all the residents by name. There only had about 100 residents, but it fit Mary's needs perfectly.

They were able to accommodate my mother to family care and it meets her needs right now. Lisa, i can't remember her last name, the Director, was very friendly! She made accommodations for my mother and she got her settled in fairly quickly. She did what's needed to be done. She did everything and it seems to be a really nice place from what I could tell. The staff I've seen and talked with are all so very friendly and willing to help. The place feels homey. There's a little gift shop in there, the dining areas were all nice, they got recreation areas, they got plenty of activities scheduled for the people there. Their meal time is not one set time, there's like an hour and a half for you to come down to eat. Unlike where she was, you don't have to be there at a certain time, or you don't eat. If you don't like their meals you can take a light meal. They have a waiter come to the table and ask you what your choice is. Everything just seems more accommodating!
