We toured this community for the care for mom. The staff was nice and they would have had the care that we needed. We did not like that her room would have been on the second lever and I wanted her on the ground floor due to her needs. The community was clean and seemed to have a nice environment. The menu was appealing and the activities would have been offered for her to participates. We do suggest that families might consider a tour of this nice community for the value of the care that is offered for a loved one.

I couldn't be happier with my mother's move to this community. Everything is working out very well, and I'am very satisfied. She is doing very well, and having the time of her life. They have a wonderful staff, and they are taking good care of her and her needs. She loves the food, the meals are very nice. I know she is being cared for very well, and safe. The location is close to me. She has settled into this community quite well, and I would recommend it.

It's beautiful, but not for advanced Alzheimer's.

Chelsea was unable to care for my mom in the Alzheimer's unit. At the time of the initial assessment they were going to be able to accommodate her needs, but I would have liked to know that as she progressed with the Alzheimer's this wouldn't be the best place for her. They don't get better when they have Alzheimer's. We liked it a lot because it didn't have the nursing home atmosphere, it looks like a hotel, it's beautiful. My only complaint is about not disclosing that they wouldn't be able to care for her as she advanced.
