Island Assisted Living is one of the most professional assisted livings I have ever dealt with. Their staff is beyond compassionate and caring. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a place for a loved one!

My mother spent 7 1/2 years at Island Assisted Living. I believe that it extended her life. She made many friends over the years and everyone looked out for her. Each aide went over and beyond. There were a couple in particular that my mother became attached to and made all the difference. The receptionists were always attentive and helpful.

I visited this facility

The people in Island Assisted Living weren't very nice or friendly. The place wasn't up to date, so I wasn't very happy. The place wasn't bad nor great, just in the middle. The room was OK. I suppose they had some activities going on, but we got there during lunchtime and none were going on. They have a library, a therapy room, a dining room, and a beauty parlor.

It is always valuable…

My grandmother recently fell at this facility and they left a voicemail on a families house phone that was away on vacation. They did not ever speak with anyone and didn't continue to make calls to contact anyone else. We found out two days later that she was in the hospital. When we called the facility to speak with the director Sam, he was a cold nasty inconsiderate human being that sh…
