Charter Senior Living of Panama City Beach
5.0

place is spacious and open compared to others but still a shock when you have to downsize. food staff, activities, housekeeping and all is adequate considering the amount of people and the care they require.. the price is a shock no matter what to person who has always paid their own way in life but everything is being done for you. bang for the buck i don't know if i could hire all the services and tolerate the situation for what i pay here. i would recommend charter but the lifestyle change is a dozzy. make sure you have adaptability before you leap

Brookdale Panama City
5.0

The staff at Brookdale was very kind and took care of our grandmother until the end. During her time there she enjoyed the meals and friends she did make. The nurses were very helpful. We always felt like we could ask them questions

Superior Residences of Panama City Beach
5.0

I definitely recommend it as I do all the time and tell people to go there. They don't clean under the beds too good and seemed to lose some of her clothes but other than that we are absolutely fine with the place and we loved the people.
