My loved one was previously a resident at Karolwood Gardens Norfolk and the overall experience was great for her at this facility. The staff, care services and friendliness were all great. The cleanliness, meals and activities were good. Based on our experience, I would recommend Karolwood Gardens Norfolk to others.
It's taken some time so the facility to staff; however, they are doing a good job. Current staff is very friendly. Seems that the relatively new Director is getting improvements implemented.
