My mother was a resident of Trulee in the last two years of her life. I can't say enough good things about it. The apartment was lovely and the support staff - including nurses and CNAs - were thoughtful and caring. The front desk staff were amazing - always willing to help with anything we needed. The building has great shared spaces including lounges and outdoor terraces. The activities, especially musical performances at Happy Hour, and movie nights, were fun and really added to her quality of life. In her final days, it was so good to know that people who knew her and cared about her were there. My family was so glad we found this place.

Have a family member at Trulee in assisted living pretty much since it opened. It’s a very nice facility with good food and nice activities. Front desk staff, specifically Debbie and Bill, are terrific. Very friendly and accommodating. Nice outdoor areas as well. Would recommend it.

Trulee has been such a wonderful and vibrant community for our family. The team is very friendly, the spaces are clean and thoughtfully designed, and we enjoy the food. Trulee catered a private event for our extended family in their Skyline lounge, it was delicious! The activities are stellar. Doing fun things with my family instead of worrying about them makes all the difference. We enjoy our time at Trulee, and are grateful for the service it provides.
