We have had a great experience. And [name removed] from APFM was so very helpful!! The process went more quickly and smoothly than I expected. The food is fabulous. Beautiful dining area. Staff is available, accommodating, and super friendly.
I would let a freind know, how caring everyone was with my mom. When we would be worried about what we thought was outrageous behavior they always calming replying it was just part of what she was going through. They took actions to help her adjust as best they could. You just had the feeling they cared for all who were in their care. Was it perfect? No, there were times I wish there had been more communication but also understood that's part of the transition. We selected Madison at the Range because their facilities were very bright and clean. It is all one level and not over powering in size which was important for our mom's consideration. Most importantly the people from the original tour through her stay were welcoming and caring.
My mother is law loves it here. She has adjusted very well to it, and we are pleased. She stays busy with all the activities they have available. They have an excellent staff, they are caring for her very well. The only problem she has had is the meals, but they are working on it. The community is very well maintained. They have really provided me with a peace of mind knowing she is in good hands. She is being cared for well here and I would recommend this community.
