I can state I am extremely impressed with All American as a whole. The staff is outstanding, the facility exceptionally clean. Very very pleased with facility. The staff have gone above and beyond
Atria Fairhaven is great! For the quick decision that had to be made, it has worked out for us. The people are extremely friendly, both the residents and the staff. The staff has been very helpful in making the transition, for both my loved one and for our family. As with any place, it takes time for everybody - staff, resident, family - to get to know one another and get all the details worked out, but they have provided good care to my loved one.
We love that our mother is safe and happy. We always feel welcomed. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would absolutely recommend Atria Bay Spring Village to other families who may need a place for their loved ones
