I would say to check out this community. It was one of the best communities that I have seen. They have activities like bingo, cooking, baking, they did an Easter egg hunt for the community and kids got to join also. They also had a mardi gras party and try to celebrate all of the holidays with the residents. The staff are very good and easy to communicate with. I can call, email, communicate in person they take care of things immediately.
The community is very clean and the staff is very nice. The food is pretty good and they have activities available for the residence to participate in. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience
I like the care for my mom. The staff are wonderful and so very caring to my mom's needs. This is a beautiful and clean community. We like the healthy meals that are very good and she likes the nice variety. They have great activies for her to participate and I like knowing that she is active. We would highly recommend this wonderful community for outstanding care and value for other families.
