Having both of my parents in long term care and my mother-in-law living in assisted living, our family has had a lot of experience with senior care. The staff here have done a wonderful job meeting the needs of our loved ones with compassion, patience, and respect. It gives our family peace of mind knowing they are cared for in a safe and supportive environment. We truly appreciate the kindness and dedication shown by the team every day.

We did not have a good experience with my mom, my expectations maybe too high. I received my CNA license through the Villa. Been a CNA for over 30 yrs. The home works short most weekends and the call lights take awhile to answer. Truly a handful of great male CNA comment daily on their care for my mom. Being that this our facility in this community I would strive to be exceptional in caring for our elderly our parents. I did not feel comfortable leaving my mom. My mom often was very wet in the mornings and often not changed through out the night. She had 2 falls with this facility. We need to really have a better place for our loved ones. I feel I let my mom down. I’m so sorry mom.

I took the CNA through this facility and it was lovely. The amount of videos I watched and in person labs I went through left me feeling much better prepared for being a CNA and taking my test. Definitely a great class to take for any aspiring health care professional!

I took the CNA course that Benedictine offers and it taught me so much! I always felt very welcomed there and I thought that the classes themselves were very educational. Jill and Cindy did a wonderful job at making sure I was prepared for the tests. Thank you so much for the opportunity.

We are currently working with The Summit for my mother-in-law, to become a resident of the facility. Although the process is daunting, their staff have been flexible and accommodating to answer all of our questions, allow repeat visits and tours to help her feel like this is her next home. We look forward to many visits to come, as she will be joining them October 2025.
