Nothing but positive things to say

We considered Paul Spring for my aunt, but ended up choosing another community only because of the location being too far from us. But it is a very nice place and everyone was very welcoming

Review of Paul Spring

Despite the difficult challenges 2020 has presented especially to those of retirement our Paul Spring has protected the residents while making every effort to create a glimmer of cheer in each day. The staff and management value each aspect of Health, follow CDC and VA health department guidelines, and still make time for taquito and sangria delivery or lemonade. Special thanks to [name removed] who keeps us connected to anyone we need and to the fine, warm caregivers.

The Place To Be!!!!!!

I can’t say enough good things about Paul Springs. After visiting several other facilities, I happened to hear Paul Springs. As soon as I entered the building I realized that this was an entirely different kind of place. It is a community of residents and a staff of people that treat everyone as family. If you are looking for a community where people really care and where family members feel welcome and a valuable part of the community, Paul Springs is a great choice and some place you must visit.

Great place with friendly, helpful staff

Everyone here is so nice! I admit that my parents, who are in their 90s, don't (and probably won't) take advantage of the activities, but the services are so helpful and delivered promptly and cheerfully. They have residential living, so they have meals (3/day), laundry, housekeeping, and the maintenance guys come up whenever they need a little help. They also use the in-house medical staff for basic care. The place is lovely, and we're looking forward to warmer weather when they can enjoy the outdoor areas. And no complaints from my parents.

My parents were very happy with their visit to Paul Spring, and the location is perfect since it is just a few miles from several of their children. Some of the apartments are very small, but they had one large one available which should work out fine.

A Place for Mom has scored Paul Spring Community 9.8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
