Recent reviews of Independent Living in Madison County, AL
Madison at The Range
5.0

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.

The Madison Village
5.0

I would tell others looking into The Madison Village that they have taken their time and answered all o my questions honestly. The main reason I chose this facility over others I looked at was because of the space and close proximity to my family. The apartment sizes are good. It is a good choice for independent living.
