Critical

Not for the "young" old.

I came here from NE in early September. I left it to my family. I had had a very small stroke in July/August, and all they heard was stroke. We have had chicken of some type or other for four days now. I'm starting to grow feathers and cluck. One Sunday for supper there was one person in the kitchen/dining room. One! Waited an 1 1/2 for the meal and it was cold. Didn't eat that night and I'm a diabetic. Currently being read to like school children. That hasn't happened for 60+ yrs!

We were in a rush and the staff and admins were very helpful in getting processed and placed. The information provided and question responses were always available immediately and we felt very comfortable at the facility and with the staff.

Review for Charter Senior Living of Madison

The move was good. The plan for my future was a good one. They clean my apt once a week do my laundry once a week. Do my drug dispensing ever day as required. They do 3 complete meals every day.
