Recent reviews of Independent Living in Bowers, DE
The Woodlands in Ocean Pines, MD
4.5

Our family is so very grateful that we found Catered Living. It is attractive and small enough for personal attention. Our mother got wonderful care there. We felt the staff knew her personally and always treated her with love and respect. When the time came, the staff, nurses and admin at Catered worked closely with hospice care and the family.

Mullica Gardens Assisted Living in Mullica Hill, NJ

My loved one was previously a resident at Mullica Gardens Assisted Living and the overall experience was good. I knew that my loved one was safe and that was very important to me. Overall, the staff was good. Some were poor and some were great. The food was good. The activities were great, though I do wish that there were more. As for the value for cost, I'm not sure since I don't have anything to compare it to.

Luther Towers in Wilmington, DE
4.5

For how they try to accommodate the residents, they really go above and beyond. The only thing that is difficult is that my mom can't see that well and the ovens are geared for handicapped people and it's digital and she can't read the numbers. Lot's of activities. They have things like bingo, but they also take them places weekly, like to the store, and the bank, and the doctors.
