Our family's experience

Food is not great. Activities are fair. Wish they did more excursions. Apartment size is good. Cleanliness could be better. Care is good though. I should also add the absolute best thing is she can have her dog with her and that they all love him. Makes all of the negative aspects negligible.

Staff care for my belligerent partner patient is a positive attribute. The negatives are inadequate descriptions of rules/regulations in the pre and post admission stages.

The only amenity that they were missing was a swimming pool, but everything was nice. They had rooms for poker, games, and movies, and rooms for sitting around talking to each other.

Review for Morningside of Wilmington

My experience with A Place For Mom ha been nothing but the best. I took care of my mom for several years and was very nervous about placing her in a facility. Everyone was reassuring, helpful, informative, and engaging. I could not have placed my mom without them. They too were encouraging, reassuring, and engaging. It just seemed right, and I felt confident about the community. Turns out I wasn't wrong. She's adjusting and doing very well.
