My grandma ada, lives here, this place is the most accommodating to her need, they constantly check in on her, they offer so many activities and things to keep her occupied. She is genuinely happy here. She still has here since of independence, without being alone. I have never seen a place with such caring and truly loving staff members. The food is also amazing, It is always well made, not just cheaply made microwave meals like ive seen at other homes. This place is worth every expense we pay for. I recommend this place to anyone who really cares about a family member, but doesn't have the time to dedicate the time it takes to care for someone else. I love this place and the customer service.

My mother moved in to Discovery Commons about six months ago. Everyone was a little worried about how the transition would go, but there was really nothing to worry about. My mother was welcomed by the staff and the residents and has been so happily cared for, we feel it has been a perfect fit.<br>The staff is consistently kind and very professional, they take excellent care of my mother and always leave her in a great mood. Plus, she gets a lot of extra ice cream, which we appreciate! The facilities have been completely redone on the inside and look fabulous and are kept exceptionally clean. The exterior grounds have beautiful, mature trees, and everything looks manicured. We love having our mom gather with her friends on the front porch, even in warm weather there’s a lovely group of residents ready to chat or just wave hello.<br>This is where my 95 yo mother is safe, loved, and happy. It is all about the staff: they are fantastic.
