Island House

There is such real kindness here. After spending several years as an invalid at home with some help, a fall incapacitated me even further with a bad ankle break. After over three months in bed (hospital and rehab) it was clear I would not be able to go back to life as I knew it. I chose Island House because I have known many people who came here, and it was literally as close to “home” as I could be. After the emotionally hard transition, I have come to know that real angels, for the most part, with smiles and tender care, make up the care/support staff, in whom I have to rely for so many things. Highly recommend,

My parents were hesitant to move into an assisted living facility. They knew they needed help but it was also important for them to have independence. They had outdated ideas of what assisted living was. The Island House has changed all of that and has far exceeded all expectations. My parents couldn’t be happier! The staff has gone beyond helping them settle in and become part of the community. [name removed]has been making them the most delicious food! [name removed], [name removed], [name removed]and [name removed]are ensuring all of their needs are met. And the rest of the community has been extremely welcoming. It’s a very supportive and nurturing environment and one that my parents are thriving in. We are very grateful to have found the Island House!

The staff are pleasant but they seem spread too thin. The facility has nice parts (the living room) and parts that seem old and tired (lobby, elevator, halls). The food seems ok, not great. I think they have had alot of turn over in the kitchen.

I would recommend to them to others. They are very accommodating but it is not cheap. I looked at another community, but decided that island house was a better fit. We did just lose our activities director so we will see.

The staff at Island House are very accommodating and friendly. They are not overbearing and they allow the residents to have the amount of independence that they need/desire.

Island House is a very friendly and safe community. All of the staff members know me by name and always check in on me and make sure everything is going well. It is always a difficult decision and transition leaving the comforts of your own home but they have made the process very easy, they have made me feel welcomed and comfortable. I would recommend this community to other families.

Things have been very good so far. The only issue we've had is my mother-in-law moved over a holiday so there wasn't an initial introduction with the directors. She's gone to the new resident introduction and watches movies. The food is great! The housekeeping came in last week. They were very thorough and even cleaned her towels.

What a wonderful community, It was our first visit on the list of communities that we plan to visit. The staff was very friendly and answered all our questions thoroughly. Overall appearance was excellent and the homey feeling you received the minute you walked through the door was wonderful, two thumbs up!

The residents were very friendly on our first visit. Very clean, open pleasant public areas. Nice to have private washer & dryer in each unit.
