Everything is going well for my mother since her move to this community. She is doing well, and I'am pleased with all they have done for us. This community is working out pretty well for us, and it is a good place with kind people.

I chose the community due to close to my home and the staff was welcoming. The cost was reasonable for my Dads needs now and in the future along with the cleanness.

Florence Place

I think this community is excellent and was for my mother. The staff was great to work with. They were able to keep me updated via phone and email during the pandemic. The grounds looked good about a year ago. The community was able to give both vaccines to the residents.
