5 / 5.0

The staff is very helpful, the food is very good and the facilities are very comfortable. The residents are also very friendly. It may not be home, but I can't think of a better place to be at this point in my life.

4.9 / 5.0

From the information we received when touring the facility with us not being rushed and having all of our questions answered in a friendly, patient, and professional way to the onboarding proc...

4.8 / 5.0

The whole place has a very friendly atmosphere. SLC offers a lot of programs that are open to people who live in the surrounding community, so the residents feel like they are still part of the community. The food is very good. I would recommend Scandinavian Living Center to others.
