Reviews

Kindness is this business' core strength. I compared price and services to other memory care in the area. They made move in by far the easiest of any of the ten facilities I talked to, they were competitively priced, and services were very similar. The shared bathroom I selected was set up better than other similar accommodations in five of those facilities. The first time I talked to the staff was about a year ago when I was looking for adult day care. They were not in that business anymore but got back to me later that day to let me know that they had found someone who was. This staff practiced kindness that day, and I moved my wife in this year. I go back to talk to her over her dinner every day that I can and that same kindness shows throughout the facility, every time that I've been.

The staff is genuinely caring and listens to your needs. They made mum's transition as easy as possible both for her, and for me. The facility is very well maintained, the activities are engaging and varied for the residents, and mum has nothing but raves about the food.

My dad became a resident about a week before Thanksgiving. Carol worked very hard to make sure everything went smoothly. After his first few hours there dad was making friends and the staff decided to change his room to be closer to some of the people he met. All of the staff is very kind and willing to help make sure dad is getting the care he needs. I enjoy checking the Facebook page to see pictures of dad living his best life. The layout is great - a ranch with a lot of natural light and area's to congregate. The security is a comfort too knowing that he won't be able to escape. The food smells so good when we visit around meal time. The place is clean and the rooms are also clean. The staff all know "Al" and it is great to see him smile and get the care he deserves. And thanks to Eric, Gabby and team for getting his birdfeeder set up by his bedroom window!

My Dad received above and beyond compassionate, professional care at The Springs. Our family received caring and solid support along the way. At the end of my Dad's life staff members came to visit and comfort us when they were not even on duty! The front office, nurses and building and grounds people all knew the residents (and their families!) by name. The Springs is a very safe, clean and compassionate place to place a loved one.

My father fell at home, and required complex surgery. Following the surgery, he was not mobile enough to return home. We brought him to The Springs. The management staff worked with our family to arrange a smooth transition to The Springs. The care my father and our family received from all members of the care team, administrative team and maintenance team was outstanding. My father could not have been a better place.
