Very Best
reviewed on: 10/29/2016 by Doris WillburThe best place one can find. Love it
Best there is
reviewed on: 10/15/2016 by AnonymousOh, so much nicer, cleaner, friendlier, and caring than previous nursing home experiences this last 6 months. They had 5 stars but can't imagine where they got them. Barss is the very best and my husband is blossoming here where he was deteriorating at previous one. It was worth the waiting list.
Super
reviewed on: 10/16/2016 by Doris WillburIt worth the wait. So clean, caring, friendly and fun place
Better for more "active" people
reviewed on: 10/22/2013 by DaughterMom had more memory issues and she wasn't the typical Azleheimer's patient because she had a stroke that caused her to have speech issues. It didn't have as many private areas, it was very nice, if you had someone that had more of their wits about them it was a very nice place. It was more expensive but mom needed something more downsized. It was very nice if you could afford it and I would recommend it if you had someone that had their wits about them but had physical needs. I think it would be great for them because they could go out and walk, but they were supervised.
