Each time I visit Smithfield Woods I meet tenants that are happy and engaged along with a professional staff greeting me at the door. The facility is always spotless and very comfortable.

A few of us went to visit a friend and have lunch with him. The staff at Smithfield Woods was very polite, professional and friendly from the moment we arrived. The food served at lunch was great. I'd recommend this facility to everyone! God Bless!<br>Happy Easter!<br>Allen Winter Sr

I would never recommend this place to anyone. My Dad was there in assisted living. The place was filthy and he would lay in bed all day. Being an amputee, he did need assistance. They charge for everything. Most times, no staff to be found. His bed was never made. One day we found him in his bed with feces on his foot. We moved him to a much better facility where he received the care he required. Don’t get me started on the management. So many times we reached out for a discussion with no response. It’s all about the money there.
