Recent reviews of Assisted Living in Porter, DE
Meadowcrest at Middletown
3.5

They have to work out some growing pains in the business still. What is said that will get done and what gets done, doesn't always happen. They don't always think of the residents versus the comfort of the workers, for example: it's so cold there, they've got it down to 72. They are a company and they are there to make money; they're not in great favor, but this is my one and only experience with a retirement home.

Forwood Manor in Wilmington, DE
5.0

Wonderful facility! Everyone was so helpful, positive and greeted us like we were family. My aunt and uncle will thrive under their care. Thank you [names removed] and the rest of the staff for making Forwood such a wonderful home for families.

Millcroft Living in Newark, DE
4.5

The assisted living staff are excellent. Caring, attentive, patient, and friendly. Parking can be a pain is the only really negative thing I would say. The room sizes are good, my mom is happy with it. The last question is not a knock on Millcroft, its just the absurd costs of elderly care make the idea of "value for the money" an impossible concept.
