The Corporate Manager Amy Porter, is very unprofessional and disrespectful, and I believe her character reflects this place as a whole. DO NOT BRING YOUR RELATIVES HERE. She is nasty and handles situations unprofessionally and doesn’t know how to treat people with respect even though it is HER JOB AS MANAGER to remain professional and respectful while in the work building. I wouldn’t feel comfortable bringing my relatives here knowing that someone so rude would be in charge of their food. Good day.

I'm so very grateful that my family found this place for my dad. It's hard to watch your loved one have so many issues from Parkinson's, and be unable to care for them at home any more. All the places we visited for him besides this were terrifying, unbelievably expensive, or had no place for someone who needed to be in a memory care unit. It's very clean here, the staff is so friendly and attentive, and I feel like he's getting excellent care.

Both my parents live here and absolutely love it! The care they receive is wonderful. I'm kept informed of all aspects of their care. They have events and activities almost every day, which keep them happy and engaged. I highly recommend this facility!

This Home has been a Godsend for my mother. The staff from the security guards to the Higher up officials and everyone in-between are very perfesional but all are very caring, couldn't be happier! They had a car show at the end of the summer. And all the wings are named after the area! Like Harsons Island and Automotive Way, and Selfridge. The Home is beautiful!
