Kindred House has taken the utmost care of my Grandparents. They were cared for as well as family would have cared for them--better even. Our family was always welcomed and encouraged to visit, and the residents all became good friends. The staff really care about the residents, deeply and personally. They always went above and beyond to care about the things that my grandparents cared about. I'm counting down the years until I can move in!

The Kindred House has been a God send! My husband is not your typical client for a facility like this. He has a neurological disease that leads to dementia and is only in his early 50’s. He is in the later stages of the disease and so now to a point where we can benefit from Adult Day Care services as well as overnight respite to allow myself to go out of town on occasion. Until this facility opened, I really didn’t have any options for him. I certainly didn’t want to utilize a nursing home. Although he has dementia, he is still very mobile and active. My husband has recently started going once a week and I plan to have him stay for a weekend occasionally when I travel out of town. He absolutely loves it there and it gives me a much needed break. The staff is exceptional! They truly care about the folks they are caring for and their families. We are so blessed to have this facility in our area. I highly recommend them!!!

If you are looking for a place to send your loved ones- The kindred House would be my 1st choice! That is a safe-home environment that is filled with the most compassionate heart warming people who take the time to spend with them! They have many activities to keep your loved ones busy throughout their day along with coffee and snacks! ( and much more!) There’s no place I would want my family to be other than with them! They will become…FAMILY!❤️

The Kindred House has been a blessing to my elderly mother and myself. All staff are so kind and caring. They all are so hands on and keep their guests active. I drop my mom off in the morning on my way to work then pick her up when I get off work. She is getting to a stage in her life where she can't be home alone for a long period of time. My mind is at ease knowing she is in such good hands with everyone there. It's also good for my mothers mental health, it gives her something to look forward to, she is so happy. I highly recommend the Kindred House for your loved one. It's such a beautiful place! Like their Facebook page and you'll see all the joy it brings.
