I love Inspired living

It's the best service ever. I love Inspired Living. They have met and exceeded all care of my loved ones. They are very healthy and happy after months of being under their supervision. I cannot ask for any better care than what they receive daily. We picked this community because, their focus was only memory care, that is what I needed for my family.They are strictly extended care.

Caring, compassionate staff with a lovely, side-walked garden

Over all I am glad my mom is at Inspired Living. I would recommend Inspired Living . I absolutely love that staff is Teepa Snow trained, but I am equally Disappointed that the lower paid, foreign speaking care givers are Not Teepa Snow trained. The people who work at Inspired Living, are passionate about their work. Activities are age appropriate and staff puts a lot of effort to include everyone by inviting the guests several times, as well as, offering to accompany them or assist them. There community outings, as well to places like art exhibits and gardens. Staff is very communicative to help me know what my mom is up to, if she's alert, participating, agitated, has a boyfriend , etc Overall I am pleased, I do wish it weren't so expensive, but it's the going rate, so that's that!

The best option for memory care in the area

I love that Inspired Living at Sun City specializes in memory care so staff are properly trained and know what they are doing. The staff is absolutely awesome. They are very kind and warm-hearted and the director [name removed] has been awesome. He is very hands on and interacts with the residents and has been very accommodating as well. I understand they have the biggest courtyard out of any of the facilities in the area. It is huge and has a gazebo and they have 3 or more ways to access it so residents can always get outside if they would like. That outdoor freedom is one of my favorite things about this facility. The layout is nice, it is like a big "U" with the residents who need more care on one side and the ones who need less care on the other, that works out well. They definitely need to improve the food - it was a lot better when she first moved in. Overall it is a great facility and we would absolutely recommend them to others, it is night and day difference from the previous facility she was at.
