What we like most about the Solstice Senior Living community are the meals that they prepare for the residents, the staff members who work there and the living arrangements for the residents. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would 1000% recommend Solstice Senior Living to other families.
My loved one was previously a resident at SoCo Village and the overall experience was okay. It is a newer facility, however, it is in a busy intersection part of the city and there were lots of homeless around so it didn't feel completely safe when my loved one ventured off from SoCo. There weren't many food/grocery/restaurant options nearby that felt completely safe. My biggest complaint was staff turnover, in all areas, which lead to shortages of all kinds.
We are thrilled with Mom's move to Parmer Woods! Having just moved her from out of state, our experience at her first community was less than desirable. Parmer Woods is exactly what I was looking for. She has done more in her first 2 weeks than 2 1/2 months at her previous community. The residents have been very welcoming and the staff is very kind and caring. I used to leave her old facility upset and angry now I leave calm and peaceful because I trust the staff has her best interest in mind. I would highly recommend moving your loved ones here.
