I am/was a resident of this facility

I'm in Advent Christian Village Inc. I'm on the fourth floor, and I have a beautiful view of the pond and the chapel. Everyone's friendly, and there are lots of activities to participate in. I have a raised garden bed. I have peas, turnip greens, and lettuce, and many things growing right now. Everyone's very helpful. There's a garden club and a painting club, where you go once a month. They provide everything. You just come and participate. It's very good. My main reason for coming wa…

I have sent an application to Advent Christian Village Inc. I was very impressed. The residents were very friendly. I like that it's a Christian community. It just feels like a nice place. The staff members were knowledgeable and very friendly, too. I did not have a chance to try the food. However, when I went to look at it, it was an apartment with a kitchen in it. All the apartments have their own kitchen. There are other options for different places to eat. One of the places is a cafeteria. It was immaculat…

My mom moved into Advent Christian Village. Everybody seems really nice. It's very clean and it meets all of my expectations. The one thing that I've noticed is that they have a lot of staff, a lot of different levels like the RNs, LPNs, and the assistants that helps the parents around. They're very nice and very helpful, and they don't seem like they're overworked. I don't think they have that many activities for memory care. The room is nice, but you need to make it your own. It&apos…

We especially enjoyed the Advent Christian Village Inc. It was not at all what we were expecting. We were seriously considering it until we had a change of fortune. They do independent living, assisted living, and memory care all in the same building, which is what I was looking for. We're independent at this point, but I know that at some point, we won't be, so I just wanted to move one time and be done with it. I would rate it as the highest of all the ones we have seen. They were complete. They were ca…

The grounds at Advent Christian Village Inc were lovely. They've got multiple levels. You can live in your own apartment independently. It has independent living to advanced care. The staff seemed a little overworked. They were nice and there wasn't anything wrong with it, but there wasn't anything right. I felt like maybe they needed to hire more staff. I wouldn't choose that place unless I lived nearby and I could track what was going on. I don't think my mother-in-law would be in danger,…

Advent Christian Village Inc. already has my name listed down there, but I haven't decided that's where I want to go because they don't have any openings now. I talked to the lady just a few weeks ago before my grandson got put in the hospital, and she said that the hurricane had hit several of the smaller homes there, and they were having a cleanup day. They were trying to clean up and see what kind of repairs they had to make. They are homes. The people are very agile, can walk around, take care of…
