Wonderful facility, I would highly recommend.
I gave the staff of four because in his monthly fee he supposed to get two showers a week and there have been times where on his shower day nobody showed up. Also, on more than one occasion, the wait staff has told myself and my sister that we have to make reservations 24 hours in advance

Wonderful facility, I would highly recommend.
I gave the staff of four because in his monthly fee he supposed to get two showers a week and there have been times where on his shower day nobody showed up. Also, on more than one occasion, the wait staff has told myself and my sister that we have to make reservations 24 hours in advance to have dinner with my father. It felt like I was getting reprimanded at the dinner table in front of all the other residents, and it didn't feel good and it didn't make my dad feel welcome either. That's why I give it a four for an overall experience. Wonderful facility, I would highly recommend. Minor issues to work out but I this facility is by far the best place for anyone looking for assisted living.

We feel good about our choice
TLC has been a good place for my mom. She has lived there more than three years now. The apartments are well designed, particularly the bathrooms. The whole facility is bright and vibrant. It feels cheerful, not depressing as some facilities do. Without a doubt, though, the most valuable feature is the staff. They are genuinely kind and caring......and not just the nursing staff, either. The people who work in the kitchen and dining room, the housekeeping and maintenance people, the administrative staff.....they are all great.

TLC- Best in the area!
My mom has been a resident at TLC for a year. We both are very happy that she chose to move in last year. The facilities are gorgeous and very, very well maintained and clean. The staff at TLC, from management to nursing to dining to housekeeping…everyone knows my mom and they are so kind and helpful to her. The residents are cheerful and have a lot of fun with the planned activities. I would recommend TLC to anyone with an elderly parent.

Enjoys
Hi Dad has been at Tlc sense it opened. Everyone has been very helpful and friendly. And I can relax knowing he is having fun and is well cared for. He tells me how much he enjoys the entertainment that’s brought in. I received a picture of him petting a baby goat a while back. He was a farmer his whole life. He raised cattle and hogs so this was special for him. It’s comforting knowing he is cared for and enjoying his later years. Oh he has watched lots of shows in the theater room about other countries. This was great to hear for it has opened his eyes to the world. He worked the land 24/7 and did not have the opportunity to see other places.

After touring a few other places, my moms comments when we left TLC's tour was "I'd move here". She did and everything is top notch. I can only say good things about TLC> Run, don't walk if you need a place like this.

My husband and I have lived here almost 2 years. We like living here. We like the food. I get 3 meals a day, with good variety. The heat & air conditioning is controlled by us. We can make it warm or cool whenever we want. We can play bingo 3 times a week, do crafts once a week, and art class once. We can see movies weekly.

A nice community
Very clean, I have never seen an area I thought was dirty or needed attention. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. Mom loves them. The food is so good, it gets a 10! We also like to eat there with Mom. Nice variety to keep mom busy. >om is in a one bedroom apartment for the same cost other places wanted for a studio. TLC is new and beautiful with a great staff. We are very happy

Superb assisted living community!
TLC Living community is a beautiful space! First- it's only 3 years old, and it's very well appointed and immaculate. It's bright, open, beautiful decor and the furnishings are comfortable and well thought out for all the common spaces. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and clearly enjoy their jobs. All the details have been considered as far as community spaces: a huge dining room and living room, a private dining room the residents can reserve for family gatherings, a bistro area stocked with snacks and coffee, a very spacious full service salon, a movie room, library, craft room, business area, mail room and a patio with tables & umbrellas. There are plenty of activities, as well as weekly church service, presentations, live music weekly & seasonal themed events. The apartments are very well designed- there are studios, one and two bedrooms with a lot of space and a huge closet with organizers. The menu is fantastic too! All the residents have smiles & happy to be there!

Review for TLC Living Community
Great environment. Friendly/helpful staff. Very clean and organized. Friendly residents. Good food. Only drawback is lack of a great outdoor space or atrium. Does have outdoor space but some other communities are better. We picked this community because of the cleanliness, room layout, very friendly staff and residents, bright halls and rooms, and price.

The place to be!
This is a great facility! The staff is excellent. The facility is immaculate all the time and the grounds are beautiful. Definitely different than what you may expect when you think about an assisted living facility, it's a warm and welcoming environment. They seem to need more activities at night time, but day time they seem to have good options. I think even a movie in the evening would be helpful and beneficial. They have housekeeping and laundry service that does a great job. It seems like there are a few people who could benefit from a special diet and they don't offer that, for example diabetic or low sodium. Otherwise, the food is fabulous. My only concern is that there hasn't been great communication on the healthcare part of it to make sure you're loved one is getting what they need unless you ask. It was also hard to get her outside Dr and her Dr in the facility on the same page and up to date with her. But I think maybe it's part of being a new facility and getting established. However, overall I would recommend them to others and would even go there myself!

Frequently Asked Questions
about TLC Living Community

TLC Living Community offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored TLC Living Community 9.9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
