Great Heart Adult Assisted Living has been an excellent home for my mother in law for nearly 2 years now. The owners and operators of this care home REALLY care about their resident’s with 24/7 around the clock personal care, excellent communication with families, and demonstrating daily how well they know each resident personally. My mother-in-law has been thriving there after many hospital stays given the diagnoses of COPD, CHF, and kidney disease at the age of 89. My husband and I highly recommend Great Heart because the personal touches from Glenn and Tavi along with their staff are top notch! Charlie & Tracy Consolian

Our Dad was placed in Great Heart when he became ill. We couldn’t have received better care for him. While our hearts were in turmoil they provided with tender compassionate care. Their home felt like a home. Comfortable! Glenn would watch football games with Dad which we so appreciated. Your loved one would benefit for choosing this home.

Glenn, Tavie, and the entire staff are so kind and take such good care of my father. He is constantly telling me how much he enjoys being there. His favorite things are the home cooked meals and the games they play. The home is clean, beautifully furnished, warm, and welcoming. They are always on top of medical care and prescription management. I have had no issues with anything at this care home over the last 15 months that my father has been a resident. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a good care home for their loved one.
