The staff at Springfield Crossings has just been amazing, they have really gone above and beyond to make sure our loved one is feeling comfortable. The sales team is amazing and you can tell all the staff from top to bottom really love working together - they not only are so friendly with our loved one but to our family as well. They have a lot of activities going on every single day, you can see them on the public schedule. We really like the look of the community and the price was one of the lowest prices compared to other communities we had toured. So we think the value is great.
I like the place. It's very clean. The people who wait on my sister-in-law are very attentive. She says the meals are delicious. They keep us informed.
I can't recommend the community due to the way we exited the community. We had multiple attempts to reconcile a balance due and it was never resolved and we never heard back on a resolution to this.
