We chose Cambridge House of Maryville because it was recommended to us through family members, they said that it was a well-managed facility. The room sizes here are good, but I do think the kitchen could use some more space. Overall, it is a small community and everyone gets along well here. I would and have recommended for the deaf community. I do think they need an interpreter here to help with communication, that would be very helpful.
Our family is very happy to have grandpa at The Villas at St. James. He didn’t want to leave his home but [name removed] made him feel comfortable. He sits with “the guys” and enjoys meal times. They take the bus for rides which he loves since he can no longer drive. The staff is always friendly and helpful. It is a great place.
Point system cost went from $250 to $600 per month. Nothing changed for the services. This was a 140% increase. No one could answer why this increase (just the wayt it is, "I was told.) No a rent increase of 15%. Outrageous! You are sucking the elderly dry. So sad. Social Security did not increase 15%!
