I love the food options, especially the chicken and dressing! I enjoy putting together puzzles and attending the outings that are offered. We went to Carraba’s! The staff have been really good to me and help me whenever I need them.

Beautiful community all laid out on one level with a nice indoor courtyard with a few raised flower beds that some of the residents love using for gardening and sitting out when the weather is nice. Most of the rooms seem renovated with what looks like hardwood type of flooring. The caregiver and nursing staff are polite and helpful plus upper management is usually ready to help out wherever needed. They have an excellent Activities calendar with the Activities director who has been there for almost a decade. Two visiting physicians come every week making it very easy for residents to access a primary care physician and get their medication’s/prescription refilled in a timely manner and I think there’s also Podiatry that comes every so often. There’s also in house part B outpatient therapy providers, and home health agencies that help with the overall care and well-being.<br><br>Special shout out to Chris the Memory Care coordinator. Takes very good care of her residents and keeps them engaged throughout the day. I think it’s one of the best Memory Care units in the area.<br><br>Last thing: they have a third shift nurse on staff. This is not very common in the assisted-living facilities in the area
