Independent Living
So many of staff here have been with the community for many years! The Chef has been there 15 years! You know the food is good if he is still there. The Med Tech has been there 9 years! The care staff, I saw some had been there over 10 years. All in all, friendly, caring and great care.
A resident here for 10 years. I cannot imagine these past 10 years without the friends and care received here. For your sake and that of your caring family, this is where you need to be!
I think it is great. Everybody is close knit like a family. I have never been any place like this where all of the residents have joined together. Before COVID, the food was really good and it was fun. On Friday nights, we would have wine and different types of food. It was always a nice meal. I love my apartment. I have a little balcony with a courtyard view. I intend to just stay here. I never want to live anywhere else.
