My Mother is a resident of John Clarke Senior living the care she receives is always above and beyond. The Activities department does an awesome job keeping the residents active and engaged. The Physical Therapy department does an equally good job keeping my mother active. The facility is both clean and well maintained. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a place for a loved one to reside.

This place is CLEAN! The residents are well taken care of and the nursing staff all seem to be attentive.. I never hear call lights going off, and the med techs and CNAs know their residents likes and dislikes.. It was such a lovey place to visit.. even the bathrooms are beautiful along with a receptionist that always greets you with a smile.. this place is a gem..💎

We cannot say enough good things about the John Clarke Nursing Facility and their dedicated staff. Our loved one was admitted after a hospital stay, the staff was immediately welcoming, kind, understanding, and patient as our loved one was understandably apprehensive. They made her stay there comfortable and she always said she felt safe in their care. Facility was clean, needs were met, and the staff went above and beyond for us. 5/5 stars.
