Where The Heart Is has been designed as four assisted-living communities within one building. Each community has its own living room for visiting, television viewing or just relaxing, and a dining room where three meals are served each day. The library serves as a place for activities like a game of cards, reading or bible study.
The layout of each community encourages social interaction and fosters better relationships. Our staff is more aware of activity levels and has a greater opportunity to get to know each resident.
It makes sense. If a resident need only step outside their door for a bite to eat or for a game of cards they are likely to participate. If they have to walk down a long hallway or leave their floor to take part, they may not choose to do it as easily.
Our staff is chosen for their experience, ability and flair for interaction between residents and co-workers. The concept of customer service from yesteryear can be found at Where The Heart Is.
The Cottage is specifically designed for high functioning residents with Alzheimer's or Dementia. The goal of the Cottage is to maintain a more active role in the early stages...

November 29, 2022Hi there, Thank you for your kind words. We are happy to hear your loved one is feeling cared for and comfortable at Where The Heart Is. We always strive to care for our residents and give them the best quality of life here.
To each and everyone: The end of summer party was such a HUGE success!! The food, decorations, music were all so special. Mostly it was the extra love the staff and all the helpers displayed to all of us lucky enough to be invited! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

September 29, 2022Hi Marlene, Our team aims to provide the highest quality care for every resident, and we are so happy to see that they've delivered at Where The Heart Is. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this feedback.
It's a great place. I appreciate the staff, and the interaction with them. They really do care for the residents. I like the intimacy of the smaller space. The dining room and activities is located in the same building. Overall, they take really good care of my loved ones, inspite of a few challenges with adjusting. It's a much better fit for my loved ones.

April 2, 2022Thank you Billy. Barbara is a joy to get to know. Thank you for letting us care for her.
I would tell others that the community has been a good experience, and would recommend the community to others. Some of the activities that are available are painting, arts and crafts, exercise, happy hours, and more for the residents to choose from. The food is good most of time for my loved one.

We chose Where the Heart is because they had availability, I had gotten good reviews from other people, and when I was working with the woman she was helpful and really listened to my mother's story and helped to get mother the best care she could get. They do accept Medicaid as well. For being there as a single person, I think her room size is fine. They do offer shared rooms here as well, which is something we will have to do in the future. I do like that they provide transportation to doctors appointments. It is very helpful. I would recommend to others looking.

August 5, 2021Thank you for your review. Please join us for lunch sometime to experience one of our chef's incredible meals. We appreciate you letting us know how things are going.
I would recommend it, but make sure you focus on a clear line of communciation with the managment. and staff. At times they seem understaffed, and this could be based on teh Covid issue. I feel like my rating would change if not for Covid. It was good when we moved in, and then took a bit of a nosedive when Covid hit. There was a little breakdown in communication, but it's coming back. But my loved one is very happy oveall. She has commented that the food could be better. They do somnething a little different there, with teh main meal at lunch and lighter meal for dinner. That's taken her some getting used to. She feels it more like a heavy snack than a meal at dinner. As things are opening up, my confidence is being re-established, and that's been good to see.

Mom lived in retirement communities/assisted living for over 10 years. Where the Heart is was the best of three she lived in. Very nice building and grounds, but the staff and management team were the reason Mom was so happy there. She saved the best for last!

March 5, 2021Your Mom and her kitty have such a special place in our hearts. Her turkey song and apple turkeys are still a hit at Thanksgiving here! We loved her free spirit and her gift with children. We miss you and remember your kindness very fondly. I wish you peace, John, to you and your entire family.
The staff go above and beyond our expectations - they have allowed my mom to help make soups and my father the opportunity to clean out planters, and plant flowers and vegetables. It means the world to both of them. He was allowed to make waffles for the staff.

Thank you! You saw to every detail and worked wonders so that Dad could look and feel his best when celebrating his 90th birthday. We all truly had a wonderful weekend celebrating Dad's birthday and the love of family and friends. This phase of Dad's life is blessed because of you and your staff. Thank you for all you do - seen and unseen.

We thank you so much for all you have done personally for us and for our Mom during the time she was living at Where the Heart is. We appreciate everyone who had a part in her care. We were walking down a road we'd never been on before and you helped us over the hills and through the valleys. We will never forget all the love that was shown. With deepest appreciation.

My aunt doesn't always like the food. And I'm not sure about the activities because she hasn't started really participating. But the staff is super friendly, and I believe, attentive. I know that she is safe and taken care of.
