What Families Think

Families overwhelmingly describe St. Anthony's as a warm, faith-centered community where staff know residents by name and go out of their way to help, with many singling out the food, cleanliness, and activities. A few reviewers also toured for memory care or independent living and left impressed with the transparency and model units. One recent review, however, describes a sharp decline in care communication and a cleanliness issue after a staff change, which stands out against the pattern of praise.

The Good

  • Staff repeatedly described as warm, attentive, and family-like
  • Praised for cleanliness and well-maintained grounds
  • Daily Mass and faith-based programming valued by residents
  • Strong, varied activities program (art, games, outings)
  • Food quality frequently praised, including by picky eaters
  • Continuum of care allows aging in place across levels

The Bad

  • One report of declined communication and unreturned calls after a staff departure
  • One report of a resident's room left dirty and smelling of urine
  • One early review noted small apartments and mediocre food before a chef change

Most of the great reviews you are reading about St. Anthony's are from friends of a previous employee!!! Who actually cared about her residents. Since our contact Amy left, the quality of care and communication has gone downhill. Phone calls are rarely returned, and getting information about my father has become extremely frustrating.<br><br>My father's room has repeatedly been left dirty and has smelled strongly of urine. That is completely unacceptable and raises serious concerns about the level of care and housekeeping being provided.<br><br>I have also tried numerous times to speak with the owners, Mark and Mark Jr., about these concerns, but they have not addressed them or responded in any meaningful way.<br><br>To make matters worse, I was recently told that I am now responsible for calling in my father's prescriptions, even though I have never had to do that before. No one explained why this responsibility suddenly changed.<br><br>If these issues are not addressed immediately, I will be filing formal complaints with the state licensing agency and the Long-Term Care Ombudsman. Families deserve transparency, clean living conditions, and prompt communication when a loved one is entrusted to a care facility. I hope the facility takes these concerns seriously before further action becomes necessary

Very small living quarters; guess that's why the rent is less than other retirement "communities." Not a lot to do here, but they do try. If you can, fix your own food in your room, 'cause the food in the DR leaves a lot to be desired. I've actually lost weight eating here, so that tells me I've managed to avoid the carb heavy meals. Heavy on the carbs; the "seasonal" veggies are all over cooked and mushy. Guess it serves me right for picking the place w the lowest rent. In an update they have added an executive chef, & the food has improved remarkably.

I recently toured St. Anthony’s Senior Living while looking for memory care for my uncle, and I was truly impressed. The community is beautiful, exceptionally clean, and has a vibrant, upbeat energy that you feel the moment you walk in. Every staff member I encountered was friendly and made a point to acknowledge me, which speaks volumes about the culture there. The information shared was thorough and transparent, which helped us feel more assured. I especially loved seeing the really nice common areas and the amount of natural light throughout the building. The model unit was beautiful and made it easy to envision my uncle living comfortably and safely. We are still considering options but working with Amy was so great and St Anthony’s is definitely one of our top choices so far!

I toured St. Anthony's for my Mom and was very impressed. The community feels warm and welcoming, and the staff genuinely care about the residents. It's a beautiful place where people can truely feel at home. Residents were out and about which was great to see! St. Anthony’s is truly grounded in faith and community showing thoughtful compassion. I worked with Amy and she was extremely helpful. This facility is at the top of the list when we need it.

Could you leave a google review today for St Anthony’s?<br><br>I recently toured this community while exploring independent living options for my mother-in-law and I was truly impressed. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely interested in learning about my mom’s needs and lifestyle.<br><br>The community itself is beautiful, clean, and full of life. Residents seemed happy and engaged, which meant a lot to us. We especially loved the variety of activities and the sense of independence they encourage while still offering support if needed.<br><br>Although we’re still in the decision process, this tour gave us a lot of peace of mind. It’s comforting to know there are places like this where my mom could truly feel at home. Highly recommend taking a tour if you’re considering independent living for a loved one.
