PositiveHeatherwood was the first tour in which I participated. [name removed] took the time to give a tour of the facility. He did answer the questions that I asked, sometime weakly as when I asked about WiFi (but I have developed even more questions after reflecting on the experience). It was my mistake to focus on what it could cost rather than on what space I would need to live comfortable. I've come to think that I "need" a one-bedroom rather than a studio.

PositiveHeatherwood is a wonderful senior retirement living facility!!

Maybe set some policies/expectations for them to be patient in their approach, especially on move in day. 2. Great first and second lunch tour with [name removed]! She answered all our concerns/questions and was very thorough and professional. 3. Food comments: Mac n cheese and casseroles don't make a good meal. Larger portions of meat/protein and fresh…

CriticalReview for Heatherwood Senior Living
Due ongoing issues with food and delivery of it promise made and promises not kept. The staff are friendly price is better than others but the FOOD needs improvement example no menus for today at all food delivery is not good often times desert is offered because of the lag in getting food orders delivered timely
