My Dad was at Scandinavian Home Assisted Living 3 years ago several times for Respite Care and received great compassionate care and enjoyed all the daily activities. As a result of my experience with Dad, I recently had my Aunt, Dad's sister, there for Respite Care, who experienced the same quality of care and enjoyed her time there. Many of the staff remembered my Dad which was so nice to hear, and see staff are still working at Scandinavian Home I knew 3 years ago. I feel that says a lot for the facility with employees having longevity there. They provide great support to family members and their loved ones.

Scandinavian home is a fabulous place ! The staff is fantastic always takes time to chat, the activities are well planned the food is varied to meet everyone’s needs! The facilities are kept clean and neat . there are some spots that need touchups in the paint area but always working on these areas<br>The nurses and CNAS do a most professional job The front desk is always welcoming<br>Last but not least April keeps everything working<br>i just wish they didn’t lock the front doors so early i understand it’s a matter of staffing ! Scandinavian home is simply wonderful thank you all

My mom has been residing there for14 years. She came when she was 88 and is soon to be 103. The care has been amazing which I believe is one of the reasons she has thrived there. The food is delicious. In good weather the residents get to go on outings. The apartments are attractive. It is a wonderful place to live out your golden years.

Moved my mother into Scandinavian Communities assisted living facility a few weeks ago and everthing is going great. Very friendly staff and management. Patient and understanding with residents and families alike. Food is great and the facility is clean and welcoming. I would recommend Scandinavian Communities to anyone who needs them.
