Assisted Living
Finding a wonderful place for a loved one is never easy. I was fortunate to find The Palms Of St Lucie West for my dad. Upon researching Assisted Living Facilities I absolutely fell in love with [name removed] and the staff. [name removed] answered all questions and helped dad with any concerns. Dad spent 2 1/2 years there before his final days. I was so at ease knowing he was in the best of care. The Palms became his home and the staff and residents became his friends. I highly recommend this facility for your "Loved One"
My mom was at Loving Care Of The Treasure Coast for three and a half years until she passed away. I found it to be small home setting that it was as close as it could find to a loving home as her own. The place is very clean and food is fresh and homemade daily. The residents are bathed daily and always dressed nicely. They always made sure each resident is comfortable and happy. I will go often and visit with them at different times of the day. My mom would enjoy sitting outside, watching the birds, and looking at the flowers. It is a very friendly place.
I would recommend it to others. My parents are pleased with their apartment and the activities. The food could be a bit better and the dining room needs a makeover.
