This is probably a very good thing for my loved one being here, and the activities are great. The staff are friendly and overall I think they care for the residents. Everyone other than residents must wear a mask, and I believe this has kept COVID infections down in the community. The community has a main option for meals and then there is an a la carte option for the residents to choose from if needed. Some of the activities available include cards, bingo, exercise classes, movies, and more for the residents to choose from. My loved one is very interested in all the activities and this has really made our family happy that our loved one enjoys all the activities offered.
Staff is very knowledgeable, my room was always clean, good is good, everyone is very helpful. i would highly recommend Heritage Village.
I have lived at LHV for 18 months. I was becoming familiar with the routines and activities when they were curtailed by the pandemic. Since that time The staff and administration have devoted themselves to the residents safety, health and comfort. Fellow residents are friendly and concerned about each other. As soon as we can return to prepandemic rules many group activities and luncheon trips will return. A pleasant place to live!!
