Community Reviews
Nice looking community
reviewed on: 04/07/2014 by E JWe toured this community when we were looking into care options for my loved one. This place looked very nice, and it is still an option I am considering if the place we selected does not work out. The staff were all very friendly and caring, and the facility itself was clean and well kept. Due to our loved one's specific situation one of our main concerns was making sure she was in a very secure environment, and while that was something it looked like they could provide here we found another option that we thought might suit her slightly better.
The good and bad
reviewed on: 11/14/2018 by kim molineAlthough they do not offer many of the services you would expect (e.g. prescription drug help) she is quite pleased with the accommodations. She does not like the kitchen but rarely uses it since she has a kitchen of her own. Also, plenty of activities even if she doesn't utilize them.
Straight to be at Town Center
reviewed on: 08/08/2019 by Annette LippieI am happy to have found Town Center. My mother feels very comfortable there and I can visit her anytime being only 5 minutes away. She is involved in all the activities and goes to her three meals a day in the beautiful dining room. The staff is very helpful to anyone that comes in the front door. The place is very cheerly decorated at all times. She gets her room cleaned once a week and they do anything you want them to do. They do your laundry they clean your room they help you with any of your needs. I would recommend Town Center to any person wanting to get their parent into a healthful setting.
Review of Towne Center Assisted Living
reviewed on: 04/02/2015 by AnonymousAny of The Management Team at Towne Center that I have dealt with have all been wonderful. The majority of the CNA's and Nurses are all nice and friendly. They have responded to all of my requests without hesitation. The one main problem is that they have an antiquated call system for residents. To me this is the nature of their business and the call system should be up to date and working flawlessly. My loved one has had to wait up to two hours for someone to take them to the bathroom or assist them with getting to bed. It's not good at all. In addition, it seems to me that they are extremely under-staffed. The other issue I have is the strong smell of urine in the reisdent's hallway. Had I known all of this ahead of time, I may have chose a different place. I'm very disappointed, the above has caused me alot of stress.
My tour review
reviewed on: 09/16/2021 by Debbie BThe facility seemed nice but it seemed like a maze and I felt like my loved one would get lost going from one place to another. I just felt like this community was to big.
