Everyone at this community is super nice, they really do take care of everyone. The food is great, its very tasteful and presented very nicely. What really stood out to us when we first visited was the overall friendliness of the staff
Read moreWe felt like Truewood was really good quality compared to the others in the community that we saw. The apartment is on the smaller side for us, but that is just because we are used to something bigger. There is a full kitchen that is on the smaller side, but you do not have to cook so we really don't have to use it much anyways. The washer and dryer is in the hallway. The courtyard in the back is absolutely beautiful and very accessible for everybody, we love to take walks there. Most of the staff is extremely pleasant and we have had no issues. I would definitely recommend this facility to others.
Read moreOur families experience was for only about two weeks before our loved one pased, but the staff members we encountered were very friendly. The location of the community is probably our number one factor for choosing this community. Unfortunately, our loved one was not able to participate in any activities because he had to quarantine in his room for his stay.
