Great staff, friendly residents, clean facility, beautiful apartments, well worth the cost in a great area! It has been a great experience from beginning to present, with no regrets. I'm so happy I found such a clean, loving, welcoming environment for my father, to say the least, as he's still able to function on his own. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone who is still able to live on their own without needing nurses on site.
Their is a lot of shortages of staff. For what they have, I feel they do a good job. I would recommend them. Note: since they have more steady staff cleanliness is better.
My mom is 92 and absolutely loves it at Gardens at Town Center. She was at her previous residence for thirty years and was very hesitant on moving; now she says she wishes she'd moved to the Gardens years ago. They have daily / weekly activities. She has made several friends. And the Community Leader, Carrie Valone, is awesome. She is professional, caring, and very involved with the residents.
