I had looked at 6 facilities in South Carolina and 4 others in PA before choosing Tiffany Court. Tiffany Court was at least a level of magnitude above and beyond all of the others that I visited and assessed. Between the attentiveness and professionalism of the staff and the "homey" atmosphere, there could not have been a better place for Mom.
I would highly recommend it based on my research with pricing and other facility. This one provides the services I need at a good value.
When it comes to the cleanliness of the community the lobby smells like stale urine. We have not eaten there are been to the dining room so we cannot comment on that category. It is expensive, but they are a secured facility and the price doesn't increase with her level of care.
