“I came to visit a fellow team member. I encountered at least 5 different staff members. Each one was polite helpful and positive. A good attitude goes a long way in helping folks feel better. Keep up the good work!”
“Christina Bistis is an exceptional host with an obvious attention to detail and care. She hosted a wonderful event of community professionals. I can’t say enough about the great energy and professionalism she displayed and clearly brings to this community.”

About these figures
Computed on October 23, 2026 from the 6 communities listed in Hillsborough, 451 public family reviews on Google, Yelp and MyLivingChoice, state licensing records and, for nursing homes, CMS Care Compare. The best-rated list ranks communities by average family rating weighted by how many families have reviewed each one, so a 4.9 from three reviews does not outrank a 4.7 from two hundred. No community pays to appear in the best-rated list or in these figures; sponsored and partner listings in the directory results are marked as such. Figures refresh as listings and reviews change.
