My mom lived in an Allure duplex for almost 4 years before moving to the nursing home. She loved it! Jane has created a wonderful community among the independent seniors. She was also a great source of information and compassion when it was time to move mom to the nursing home. There were lots of activities when she wanted to participate but she had total privacy and independence also. The other residents were very welcoming when she moved in and she made great friends.
