My mom died after five weeks at transitions. I don't really have that long of a duration to evaluate. Yes, I would recommend this community to other families, in fact I just did and her father is intending on moving there. I really liked the place and hoped my mom would have been there a lot longer.

Staff was attentive and my mom had her favorites. Took a couple of weeks to get her meds straightened out but they did I'd definitely recommend this facility, she loved it there. Her passing was totally unexpected. She adjusted right away. She had a very cute studio apt and she said it felt like home.
