Distinctive Living

Inspired Living Lakewood Ranch is an amazing community with a fantastic staff who genuinely care about the residents. There are so many activities offered, creating a fun, engaging, and supportive environment. It’s clear how much pride the team takes in what they do. Highly recommend!

My wife and I had a conference with [removed name] about the possibility of getting my sister placed. [removed name] was absolutely straightforward and considerate. She spent close to an hour with us and never seemed impatient or outdone. Furthermore, I received followup calls from Amanda who was very generous with her time and gave me a great deal of information as well. I am grateful to them both.

1. 10-I know there were challenges getting [removed price] to agree that she needed assisted living and adjusting to being there but I saw the caring in the Director of Nursing and P.J. the nurses that made the home visit to assess [removed name]. Warm and caring. 2-10 [removed price] has said from the very beginning that the facility was very clean. I know how hard that is, working in healthcare myself. 3-10 The pre-admission visit, although teary, due to the sudden need for admission. [removed names] were amazing. [removed name] had a good feeling after that visit. Professional yet compassionate. 4-10 [removed name] had a rough start, she was not progressing with her physical therapy, prior to admission (2wks post op knee replacement), [removed name] had been told this was temporary, so she packed up her belongings several times before finally settling in. The staff were kind, despite offering help to [removed name] and being refused, they continued to try but did not force her. Eventually, with encouragement from her sister's visits, she unpacked and started getting into a routine. 5-10 As stated above, [removed name] was our first impression of Mira Vie and we both felt like we were in good hands from the beginning. 6-10 [removed name] has said from the beginning that the food is very good. She has always been a great cook and I think she enjoys having the option of using the dining room. She wasn't cooking or eating properly for some time prior to admission, so that is the big benefit. 7-10 While [removed name] did complain about not meeting people the first couple of weeks, something changed. She started meeting people she could talk to, sit on the porch with, especially when her mobility was limited because of her knee. Eventually, all within a matter of weeks, the switch flipped and [removed name] surprised everyone when she said she wanted to stay, that was the best idea! 8-10 Although I do not handle the finances, I did assist with looking for a facility and could see that Mira vie was competitive with many of the facilities offering aging in place. [removed name] is very happy with her apartment, she can drive and still be involved in activities outside of Mira Vie. Overall I think you did an amazing job. I explained to my niece that this transition went very smoothly and we have you to thank.

This was my very first tour so I am not at all experienced in doing this. The facility was clean and neat (even though it was lunch time), staff was friendly and accommodating, and residents I encountered seemed very happy there. [name removed], with whom I interviewed, took me on a tour of the facility. She was very knowledgeable about the facility and asked what I perceived to be important questions about my husband and the care that he needs. She was very sympathetic to his condition and knowledgeable about dementia related patients.

Excellent and friendly staff, paired with a clean, well-planned facility, made my overall experience very positive. Everyone I interacted with was attentive, professional, and genuinely kind, which helped create a welcoming environment from the moment I arrived. The layout and cleanliness of the facility also stood out — everything felt organized, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained. The only drawback was that the paperwork required for admission felt a bit excessive and time-consuming. While I understand the need for thorough documentation, simplifying the process or offering some portions digitally ahead of time could make the experience even smoother. Overall, though, I was very impressed and appreciative of the care and atmosphere provided.

Before we placed our mother in the Inspired Living Memory Care facility, life was complete chaos in her home. Our mother had two adult children with learning disabilities that made things so much more complicated. My sister and I spent every day going over there to control the chaos. Unfortunately, it caused Everyone in the household and everyone out of the household a lot of stress, anxiety, and depression. Finding Inspired Living was a Godsend. Our mother now has her own room. We have scheduled daily visits from family members so that she sees someone familiar each and every day. But when we're not there, I can say truthfully, that we feel comforted knowing that someone is looking after her. There is someone making sure that she eats three meals a day. There is someone making sure that she is clean, goes to the restroom and gets herself changed when she needs. There is someone there to administer her daily medication. These three things have relieved so much stress just knowing that they're taken care of . Everyone at Inspired Living is extremely nice and friendly. We've even gotten to know some of the other residents. All questions are answered, they communicate with us if there's a problem. And they really seem to care about our mom. She is treated with respect and love and has willingly cooperated with the staff which is amazing.

Mom was only there for two weeks respite care. I was out of town. So I am giving ratings according to what she had to say. I was very impressed with how lovely & clean the Gardens is. However, after her stay, she had complaints about the food being cold all the time. And that she stayed in her room most of the time. She did not tell me of any activities she did. Since she does have memory loss, I'm not sure how reliable her complaints are.

I think all these care facilities are overpriced and out of reach for most people but comparatively speaking out of all the facilities in visited Mira Vie was the best value. Yes, we would recommend Mira Vie East Brunswick to other families based on the experience so far.

Staff plus outdoor space and access is we chose them

What we like the most about the community is that it is cozy, the staff really gets to know residents and their families, immediately on top of any issues, good communication, they give good advice (no pressure) and are very helpful

Inspired living is one of the finest places for senior citizens to retire to for special care. The staff is outstanding and dedicated to the residents staying there. They are the ultimate measure of upscale first class providers. The management and staff truly care about their approval ratings and receive praise for their excellent service. They are highly recommended and continue to serve the community with honor.

We had to cut our visit a little bit short because of some family matters, but we had a good tour. The place seemed fine. We’re gonna go back at some point

I recently met with the sales staff at Mira Vie in Vlifton, NJ. The visit was thorough and personable. The facility is extremely clean and orderly, and every staff member I crossed paths with was polite and inviting. I really appreciated the professionalism and knowledge the sales staff provided and I would recommend this facility to anyone seeking full-time care for their loved ones.

We moved my father into Lakewood about a month ago now and it has been wonderful. Every time I visit he seems well cared for. He is always smiling and says he’s met lots of nice people. The staff are also very welcoming and made us feel at home. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Mom moved in and she enjoys it. She gets nice, compassionate care from the workers here. I've learned that they are deficiency free with the state! Mom also brags about how many activities she is involved with! We think the value is spot on for what she needs. Inspired Living is close to the highway which makes it easy for me to visit her weekly.

Client focus care was top priority. Compassion, respect and professionalism were present from my first conversation and throughout the tour. It is heartwarming to know that my father's care is top priority to all.

I recently visited my Aunt at this community. It is lovely. The staff were kind and very attentive. My aunt loves it there as there are a lot of things to do. She loves the arts and Crafts that they do, and the social hours. We have attended some of their special events and enjoyed them all. Whenever my aunt has an issue, the caregivers respond and assist her and are very caring and kind. She loved going to the hard rock casino and to the shopping trips they do! I am very happy that they take such good care of her!

What we like the most about the Mira Vie Manalapan community is that the care staff was great. But very hard to reach admin for various things including billing , maintenance issues - broken a/c etc went on too long

My aunt was very pleased with this facility. I live three states away so did not observe much myself. But she felt the staff was attentive to her needs and the food was good. She enjoyed the outdoor patio areas in nice weather, and loved that there was a library.

The staff is very kind and we would absolutely recommend the community to other families based on the experience so far.
