The room is nice and very spacious. The memory care unit has it's own courtyard, in which my loved one likes going out to water the flowers. Overall, the staff interacts pretty well.
My mother lived in Independent Living for 8-9 years. We found her years here to be full and satisfying. All staff are warm and welcoming, and their enthusiasm for life spills over to the residents. Mother was independent but still there is a watchfulness here that is comforting. She especially enjoyed the flower gardens. Also, our needs as a family were also met any time we had questions.
The smiling faces & the love can't be beat.
The facility is very well taken care of. Everything is really clean. The staf workers is super nice. Everyone is welcoming. Best community I have visited.
The community is so clean! The laundry and food are excellent! There is always someone available to help you, the staff are superior. Can't say enough good things about the staff! They are better than you can dream of!
I enjoyed the friendliness of the residents and staff. everyone was extremely helpful. I particularly enjoyed the man playing the Baby Grand piano. the dining experience was delightful. I was amazed at the amount of activities.
Our first impression right away was how clean, well kept and modernized the community was and how friendly the staff were. They could work to improve on more activities for the memory care side. They could have more staff trained for memory care and have better overall communication between their team.

I was greeted with a smile from every employee I met. the mood was cheery with lots of activity in the café! a cooking class was going on which looked fun and interactive. the community was very clean. I enjoyed my visit.
You make me feel like a person of worth.
The community was warm and welcoming when you walk in. The staff was friendly and nice. They answered all my families questions on our tour.
I played the harmonica for this retirement community and in all the years that I have performed in nursing homes and retirement communities, IVP was the most welcoming to me. I look forward to returning to this community!
Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. All of you at Independence Village are very professional and yet personally caring. That means a lot to us as families who've entrusted our most important person in our lives to your care and expertise.
i have been at this facility many times and feel that this is a great place for Seniors to live, the Staff is very friendly and tries to make sure that the people have what they need. the place is clean. They have many activities for the residents to participate in. i feel that this is a great place for Seniors to live at.
Most departments never have enough help and those people have to work 10 to 12 hours a day. This is ridiculous and you'll burn these people out. Why can't a organization like this keep full staff at all times, in these times were in now you have to pay people more to keep them interesting in coming to work everyday.

February 1, 2022Hello, We appreciate you leaving a review. We also agree that the global staffing crisis has made it more challenging to hire the dedicated, hard-working, and compassionate individuals we strive to bring on our team. However, we appreciate that you gave our current team a 5-star rating in the breakdown of your review. We are always open to suggestions and feedback on how we can improve and encourage you to go to our Executive Director to discuss any concerns directly. Thank you.
What a wonderful retirement home! The staff cares so much about the residents. And the building looks beautiful!
I toured this community and loved the personal touches. It looks like an upscale hotel instead of a dated retirement home. I was pleasantly surprised and very impressed with their improvements.
