Elk River Senior in Georgetown, KY
5.0

At Elk River Senior everything seems good. I have no complaints. Everything here gets five stars from me. The facility is clean. The staff are friendly. It is a good value. I am very pleased with this facility.

The Lafayette in Lexington, KY
4.0

What our family likes the most about The Lafayette community is how close it is to our family. The only problem is the low staffing but we would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

Morning Pointe of Lexington-East
5.0

I would like to thank the staff and the management for their hard work and compassionate care of my mother. It is never easy to trust someone else to care for your loved ones. They try very hard to make my mother feel at home, make her smile, and tailor her experience to meet her specific needs. If we ever have a concern or problem and tell the staff and management team, they address are concerns or problems immediately. Thank you so much.
