When we realized that our dad needed more than we could give him, we looked for a place that had a welcoming atmosphere. A place that would make our dad feel wanted and cared for. McClellan Senior Living has been a blessing for our dad and for us. He is in a clean, comfortable room with new friends all around. A great staff to help him as needed. They keep him busy with activities and provide him with the companionship he enjoys. We could not have found a better place for our dad.

The title to my review here are examples of the diverse backgrounds the residents have here at MCCLELLAN Senior Living . My uncle moved in in [date removed] and he enjoys the new lifestyle here. Every morning starts with a good breakfast and then on to the morning activity of exercise class, craft time or an on site haircut and nail spa. Midday is lunch time and then maybe a church service , bingo or a shopping trip . Early evening brings dinner time and then games or a movie . All of the meals are prepared in Mcclellans own kitchen . This home place is on the outskirts of the Talladega National Forest and my uncle often sits out on the porch watching whatever wildlife wanders by. What an awesome place my uncle lives in.

When looking for a place for our sister to live, we found for the price, McClellan Living Center was the best one we looked at. The day we went to visit, we were amazed at how friendly and loving all the employees were. [name removed] showed us around and explained all the details. We have been so pleased at all the activities that are provided for the residents. If you are looking for a place for your love one to live and be taken care of, you will not find a better place than McCellan Senior Living.

It's been almost three years since her move in at MSL. She's really come out of her shell and is participating in almost all activities. She has many friends here and is happy! I can rest easy knowing she's in good hands!

My 90 year old dad moved there after his wife died. He hated the thought of leaving his home, but could no longer care for self. He loved it, VA Home called twice offering him a place and he didn't want to move. He loved the staff, interaction with friends, activities, bingo and the meals. My dad passed away last month after a 16 day stay in hospital. Many of the staff came to see him after work even though hospital was 30 miles away. They truly loved him. You can be sure your loved one is treated kindly, with respect and honesty at McClellan. It would be my choice if I needed an assisted living.

Our mother was very hesitant about being moved to an assisted living facility. McClellan Senior Living has been exceptional in aiding her transition into their community. We are extremely pleased with the care they are providing her.

McClellan is and has been a loving family for my mother and grandmother. They go above and beyond with their care and attentiveness. [name removed] made the transition for my mother moving there smoother than I thought possible. Everyone there is so sweet and caring with the residents. We are blessed to have this facility and staff!

McClellan Senior Living is a wonderful place. The care the residents receive is top-notch. We never have to be concerned or worried about the care our loved one receives. All of the employees are well trained and very caring.

We have had our little lady there for over 2 years now. I honestly cannot say enough good about them. Everyone we have been in contact with truly cares about the residents. It is so obvious with a pat on the back here, a little hug there and just the care that they show each and every one. Not to mention the fact that they go out of their way to be sure the residents have all that they need and can participate in fun activities. This is the way a senior living facility should be operated!!!!

My mother has lived here for almost 3 years now, and it quickly became not just a “place” for her to live, but her “home”. She (and we, her family) loves ALL the staff, who treat every single resident, AND their family members, as if they were indeed their own family members! They provide so many fun and meaningful activities, so that something is going on daily for any and all who want to attend. They give great attention to details and to the needs of each resident. No matter when you visit, you will find a fun, happy, warm and transparent atmosphere, but at the same time very professional. Their compassion is obvious, and one quickly becomes aware that it is genuine. Every staff member and volunteer has always treated my mother with utmost attention, care, love and kindness, and that is what is most important! I highly recommend McClellan Senior Living to everyone!

I experience other elder facilities in this area and i can truthfully say that none can compare with McClellan Sr Living’s outstanding facilities and excellent care for its residents . The staff are very caring and does a great job. McClellan Sr Living is a place in our community that we can be proud of.

My mom absolutely loves McClellan Assisted Living! After my dad passed away, I invited Mom to come live with me on my farm. But she just didn’t enjoy life out here. She’s a true social butterfly—always wanting to be out and about, doing things and staying active. As much as we tried, we simply couldn’t offer the kind of social life she thrives on. At the same time, I didn’t feel she was safe living alone in town anymore. Thank God for McClellan Assisted Living. She’s been there for five years now, and it’s been a complete blessing. She goes to plays, movies, restaurants, and so many other outings. They’re always planning activities to keep the residents engaged. She even volunteers at the front desk, which gives her a real sense of purpose. They treat her like family. She feels at home, and I have peace of mind knowing she’s happy and thriving.

My mother has been at McClellan Senior Living for almost one year. Mother has consistently said she is happy living at the facility. She is comfortable and feels safe. I continue to be impressed by the effort the staff makes to provide activities and outings for the residents. There is almost always something to do if a resident wants to participate. I am also grateful that the staff promptly responds to mother’s needs. Moving into McClellan Senior Living has been a blessing at this point in mother’s life.

MSL goes out of their way to provide entertainment and activities for all their residents. Their ride program has made it possible for me to still be able to work full time without taking off work for all the appointments for my mother in law. We never worry about how she is being treated or the state of the building and grounds. The staff if friendly and very dependable. We are very fortunate to have our loved one here.

Everyone is kind and great to be around. They have activities every day. They go out to eat and to Walmart and other stores. I’m able to take my Aunt out any time. I come eat with her and visit as often as I can.

McClellan Senior Living has been such a great fit for my dad. He had been so isolated and lonely since my mother died five years ago. In the last year, he has had some health and mobility issues, along with some issues with remembering to take his medication, eating right, and getting in and out of the bath. McClellan has been wonderful! He now gets his medication on time, his shower in his safe and handicapped-equipped bathroom, and has three good meals a day in a social setting where he can talk and eat with other residents. He loves his aides, the friends he has made, and all the conveniences of having his laundry done and room cleaned. He also enjoys all of the special events and celebrations, and takes advantage of all of the regular activities such as acrylic painting and bingo. McClellan is a clean, attractive, and cozy place where I can feel confident he is getting the best care. The outdoor areas are also beautiful and inviting. Great place!

My Mom has been at McClellan Senior Living for over a year now. She settled right in because of all the wonderful staff and residents that made her feel like she was at home. Everyone is so nice and kind and so helpful and accommodating. They Love ALL their residents like they are their loved ones. You can’t wrong trusting all of them with your family. And you never have to worry if they are being taken care of. If you’re in need of a facility for your LO go talk to them and take a tour. You’ll be highly impressed.
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the Alabama regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Alabama regulations for Assisted Living.
