Avista Senior Living Garden City

Toured this building looking for a place for my Mother, who is moving from out of state. Overall impression was that the facility is dated and needs some care. The person I toured with was knowledgeable and was able to answer all of my questions, though she seemed surprised by my visit( I had an appointment). Very few residents visible, and though they were setting up for an activity, it did not look like many residents were attending. It was quiet. Dining options looked good. Terrible parking for guests

Avista Garden City

The staff is friendly; administration is proactive and communicative; facility is pleasant and located in a peaceful part of town. Yes, I would recommend it.

A good senior community.

I toured Avista Garden City. The people were congenial. However, when I talked to the director, who was very pleasant on the phone, she indicated she didn't feel they were sufficiently staffed to take somebody who would need a mechanical lift, even though the prior gentleman had said they could handle it. The room was very good size. The dining area was large and had a number of tables. They have space there for everybody. The place looked very well-maintained. The parking was a little sketchy. Their lot was q…
