They really seem to care about the residents. The move-in process was very easy. I was able to get a full-size bed and a dresser into their elevators. They also have carts available to help you get things from your car to the elevator. The food there is phenomenal. The cook is wonderful. The building itself is very clean. It does not smell the way some senior citizens communities would smell. I cannot give any information regarding the new Executive Director or the Activities Director since the management company has changed. I would highly recommend The James Ferndale. The management company has changed, so I cannot provide insight in terms of changes, or anything else that may occur as a result of this change.
