The Timbers of Shorewood
5.0

My apartment has a nice bedroom, living room, and bathroom. I also have a nice kitchen where I can fix my meals and bake bread and cookies. I have always felt safe here at the Timbers. The staff have always been friendly and helpful to me.

They're short of help, all the way around. That's the main challenge. Sometimes it's hard to find a nurse on the nursing floor. But I really like the assisted living building. They're very good with their activities and keeping their people up to date on things. I had one relative move to the wellness center from assisted living, and I would not do that if you can avoid it. They don't have the activities, and they're kind of isolated in wellness.

The Memory Care staff was always polite, friendly, and always willing to assist in my mother's needs. My family and I are very satisfied with how my mother was cared for.
