I have lived here for 3 1/2 years and have loved it since day one. The residents and associates are both caring and supportive. There are plenty of activities to keep us busy and entertained: theme parties, performers, organized games like Bridge and Mahjongg, sing-a-longs, exercise classes from Sit and Be Fit to Aquacise to Yoga to Tai Chi, speakers, outings for tours or restaurants or shopping, chorus, church services and Bible study, movies, and various classes in art, writing, and technology. The apartments are…

So far (6 months) living at the Cardinal has been a delight. Whether I enjoy my very comfortable apartment or roam around the public areas, there is always something to do or someone to chat with. The staff is wonderful. Always a hello, always pleasant. Super accommodating. The place is super clean, public areas are brightly done in calm neutral colors. Hallways are wide and quiet. Ambience is peaceful! And the residents are so pleasant and welcoming. The Cardinal is located in the wonderful North Hills shopping ar…

I have been living at The Cardinal for three and one half years and it is a wonderful place. It provides so many fun activities, outings, and an amazing Wellness Program. I lost my husband after fifteen months here and don't know what I would have done without the love and care from everyone here. I am so blessed to be a part of the Cardinal family.

I have only lived here a short time but all my experiences have been positive. It is a learning curve to learn a new lifestyle but all staff has been helpful. The food is better than you would expect. Food service is not good at all but I can be hopeful that is due to staff problems and will soon improve.
