The Best Senior Independent Home

The Normandy staff is the best. They know all of our names, always greet us with a smile. The maintenance crew is so helpful and friendly and willing to help. The housekeeping team does a wonderful job, also so helpful. Our food is the highest quality and the chefs make sure we are satisfied. The people who live here are like brothers and sisters, we reach out to one another. Our grounds are beautiful and well kept!There is nothing negative I can say about The Normandy! I love it here!

Happy with our choice

My parents now live there and like it a lot. They have friends that moved there first and for them that was a big deal. The staff seems caring, responsible, and helpful. They are happy so my brother and I are happy. Improvements that could be made on the food: Less salt, and a choice in proportion sizes, along with more vegetarian options would be great.

My New Home

The moment I walked into The Normandy, I was greeted with a smile by all. The staff knew my name, offered all kinds of help, always letting one know it was no problem to assist me in any way. The residents were wonderful, making sure I was included in the activities, especially making sure I never sat alone at meals. I have been here eight months and am surrounded by "family". This is such a warm, loving home.

Breakwater at The Normandy

The facility is very nice and security is good. The staff are nice and responsive. My father loves the food, my mother finds the portions too big. Also, dessert is an additional charge, and my father loves dessert. My mother worries about the little changes adding up and diminishing the resources. Overall, very satisfied with where they are at. Staff are responsive to the residents.
