Inspired Living at Tampa

Before our loved one passed away, he received excellent care. This community has the friendliest people who work there, they know everyone by name. The entire staff team from top to bottom is just amazing.

The activities are still pretty limited however we do know normally they have a bunch of things going on. This community came highly recommend to us, they made the intake process very easy and smooth, and the location has worked out great for our family.

My brother, who has Alzheimer’s lives in Tampa at Inspired Living. I visited several facilities that treat Alzheimers patients before deciding on Inspired. He has been there a couple of years. The care he has received is exceptional. Inspired staff are well trained, very caring and patient with my brother. They have many daily activities and take him to restaurants. He is so happy and I have peace of mind that he is well cared for. I highly recommend Inspired Living!

My brother-in-law, who has Alzheimer’s, has lived at Inspired Living for the past two years. He is so happy! His care has been excellent. The staff are well trained, the food is good, and his needs are met. He sees a doctor every two weeks, goes to restaurants and outings and is busy through the day with activities. I highly recommend Inspired Living.

Our Dad passed away 9/16/19. He had fantastic care over the past 18 months at Inspired Living Sun city center. The staff went above and beyond for my Dad and family. Thank you and God Bless.

We are delighted with the care our Mom is getting at Hidden Lakes Inspired Living. In addition to a failing memory, at age 94, Mom has several other conditions which complicate the care she needs. Mom requires very special attention. We were concerned that she might not be able to accept living at any care facility. We are, therefore, extremely pleased that Mom feels completely at home at Hidden Lakes. We thank the staff at Hidden Lakes for the extraordinary care given our Mom, for getting her to feel comfortable at her new home and for giving us peace-of-mind.

This place was great at the beginning, but as staff turned over and our needs changed, their care became more of an issue. To get you “signed up”, they will lie to you and tell you you can "age in place" but if your loved one is too much trouble, they will ask you to leave...or worse, admit to the hospital so they can deny your loved one re-entry. Staff turnover is very high and not nearly at the ratio it should be for the cost (5k+ a month). There has been 3 executive director changes and 4 health and wellness director changes since we have been there...nice, clean facility but keeping staff is really an issue. many promises and we had high hopes, but the turnover has caused the situation to be such that I can not recommend at all.

Loved this facility. Only 5 years old. Lots of active and high functioning Memory Care patients. Great outside area. Nice rooms. Very transparent with their inspections. Rooms were nice.I feel like this would be the best fit for my grandmother but they are strictly private pay and don't use medicate/medicare.

Great place with excellent staff. Mom has improved since moving into Inspired Living. They keep her active and involved in activities. Only drawback is activity area is too small when they have most residents involved.

When I toured Inspired Living Memory Care Facility, I felt at easy, [Removed] and staff were extremely helpful, kind and understanding of my Mom's needs. The entire building is safe, secure, new and all the residents were smiling and happy. Met a lot of the staff and they were very welcoming. Inside the units are very modern, tile floor, sensors in room and track key device for locating their residents. Was really impressed with the well thought out concept of Memory Care and Safety for all who reside in their new home.

Every time I visit Mom at Inspired Living I am glad we moved her there. The staff is the best and monitors the residents closely. They provide exceptional care, The maintenance workers were very helpful getting Mom moved in and settled. There are plenty of activities to keep the residents busy all day long. Mom feel at home there The food is good and if someone does not like it, they will get something else. Beer and wine are available at mealtime.

My husband has been a resident for the past 4 months. The facility is fairly new and well maintained and the rooms are furnished with the resident's own furniture for familiarity. The meals are healthy and delicious and there are daily activities to stimulate the Mind, Body and Spirit. But, the best thing is the caring staff! They are all trained to care for memory impaired people and are always willing to help and encourage any resident at any time. I am daily thankful to have found this facility

Rooms are minimal. No ceiling lights. Wall air conditioners do not cool off the room properly. No refrigerator allowed. No pets allowed to stay with resident. No guest meals when visiting. Only 2 choices for meals which are cheap................ghoulash a choice!! No soup. No fresh fruit or snack bar available 24 hours. No everyday menu such as a hamburger or grilled cheese sandwich. Only decaf was served until just recently after complaint. Coffee is still terrible. Pre-schoolers from a daycare are brought into the facility to spread germs to many for cheap entertainment. Perpetual colds is not fun. Stupidity cannot be cured in this place.

Felt very cold, and not temperature-wise.

Everything is going great here. We are really pleased with them. The staff has been doing a great job with mom. She enjoys the food as much as she can and she likes that they have a big open field for her to be able to walk around.

We were very impressed with the facility and the type of care the patients are provided.

The community was very organized. I received enough information about the community from the advisor. I also received a proper tour of the whole community. The staff there were all very nice and attentive. There were many common areas and activities. The community also offered Housekeeping and Laundry service / dry cleaning.

This place was wonderful for a period of time, but things have changed for the worse at this facility. "Something" happened and several people were fired. They are now without several key positions and seem to be quite understaffed. While everyone is very friendly and the facility is gorgeous, the level of care misses the mark and there is no communication. There seems to be a "don't ask questions, we're handling everything and you don't need to know" kind of attitude. Calls to check on my loved one go unreturned, despite many friendly responses that they'll have someone get back with me. No one ever does. When we're there, we're told that everyone is too busy to talk to us and someone will phone is later. No one ever does. The physician's assistant that sees residents doesn't follow up either, despite medicine changes and medical issues. In a nutshell, if you move a loved one here, you're turning them over to a staff and hoping for the best. You will not know what truly is going on. It's almost creepy. Everyone smiles and says everything is great, but no one seems to be able to elaborate on anything (new bruises, changes in behavior, medicine changes, etc.) other than they'll get the answer and get back with you... Which doesn't happen. They're too busy.

The food was nourishing and was a balanced diet to promote good health. The LPNs are all very versed in the treatment of Patients with Dementia and any other memory problems. I would feel comfortable recommending Inspired Living especially the one in Tampa. My wife has actually started to improve in ADL's and takes part in most activities. The living quarters are spacious and kept clean. The whole staff is very giving and very nice to all the patients.

I moved my mother to this facility in July 2015. She is happy and loves it there. The staff is great and the facility is very clean.
