Highly recommended

The staff are kind and competent. Had to leave her apartment shortly after moving in to go to the locked memory care unit, and they made the transition as easy as possible. Highly recommended.

Overall would recommend

Staff is amazing. From the first tour they have been warm, welcoming and helpful. They clearly know their residents and have nothing but pleasant to family and visitors. Food is delicious and care was taken to note my dad's allergy. The room is perfect for him in the studio size. Just enough for what he needs. They work hard to get him involved in activities even if he's hesitant.

Highly recommended

It has been a great experience! While we were considering the place, the directors and staff were were accessible as you might have expected, but now, over 6 wks in, they are still every bit as available and accessible as they were initially. That has been very reassuring.

Dad is happy

Nice place. Dad is happy. Transportation to doctor appointments is great. They fix things when broken. Management is on top of things. I would definitely recommend.
