There are not enough stars to give a 5+ review! From my mom's first day to her last day in the TCU (3weeks) at Harmony Gardens we don't have anything bad to say! Everyone was Wonderful! Thank you for the care that was given to our mom!

My Mom recently moved into memory care and it is wonderful. The staff are attentive to the needs of patients. There is a woman who struggles to remember her name and I saw her walking around with mismatched shoes and later on saw her with matching shoes. I know she couldn't have done that on her own. My mother has activities to participate in that she enjoys, good meals, she is showered regularly, and her clothes are clean. I especially appreciated the support from Stephanie and Karen. They are wonderful and I feel that they truly care about my mom. I hope when I am old and in need of care that I can find a place with great staff like Harmony Gardens.

I have two family members who are elderly and handicapped. We moved them to HG two years ago<br>Saying they are needy is an understatement. The entire staff at HG ( especially the nursing staff have been above and beyond in their kindness,understanding and care.

Nice facility, clean, good food. Professionals were good. Staff taking care of the day to day needs of the clients was lacking. Not attentive to needs of clients. There were some that were excellent and caring, but not all.

My grandma went to the TCU here after a pelvic fracture. The building itself it's beautiful, clean, brand new, with many amenities. The care she received was also wonderful. Though everyone I encountered here was very kind, RN Claire, CNA Vonbaba, and Social Worker Kiana(apologies for misspelled names) went above and beyond. I would recommend this facility to anyone looking for care for their loved ones.
