At first my aunt was reluctant to move from her home of 60 years, but after she was given a tour of Seaton, by Allison, she told my wife and I on the ride home how she thinks it maybe is time for a change.<br>As the saying goes, LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. She now lives a couple blocks from the beach and ocean, surrounded by her peers and part of a community. the town of Ocean Grove is adorable. But the best part about it, however, is the staff. They truly care. There is a sense of optimism with the staff there and it rubs off on the residents. I cant say enough goodbthings. This has been a game changer for all of us. Thank you Seaton.

We moved my great uncle here about 4 months ago now...I wanted to give him enough time to see how he felt about it and to get a good feel..we visit him often and this quite picky man, said he "can't sa enough good things about the place"! Maybe it's the care, maybe it's the ocean air, or a little of both- so happy he loves it, it makes visiting him much more pleasurable! I'm grateful for the team here in Ocean Grove, Seaton is in an amazing ocean spot- he is there almost daily!

My mother was a resident at Seaton Ocean Grove for over 8 years. In March she was admitted to the hospital and released that same day (hospital misdiagnosis). Over the next several days, my mom would not leave her room & was refusing her meals and meds. The nursing staff did not think to contact me to let me know what was going on. I was later told by the director that she was never seen by the physician on staff, only the physician’s RN. I came to visit her the following weekend, unaware that anything was wrong. Long story short, my mom went back to the hospital that day and passed away days later from a terminal infection. It is my belief that had Seaton taken the proper steps - contacting the family member, making sure she was seen by a physician, etc., her life likely would have been prolonged. I sincerely hope my review helps others.

Toured Seaton today and was welcomed by a warm, festive community. My grandmother lived here for many years, so it was meaningful to see the splendor back inside this historic building. Moments like this remind me why I do what I do — helping families find communities that feel like home.🏠
