My wife has made such tremendous progress being here she is able to come home by the end of the week. The staff is wonderful here they are working with her alongside an outside physical therapy service to gain her strength back which she is doing. My wife loves the staff here they are so nice and patient. After dinner, she goes to play bingo every night she which enjoys. The food she does not like it has no taste to it no seasoning.

The care my mom gets has been going very well. She loves the place and compares it to a vacation experience. The staff are respectful and responsive. They have a system to check on the residents often and monitor them throughout the facility. If my mom is motionless in her room, they check on her. They constantly have activities through out the day and it is well managed. Not to mention the food is great, which is the top complaint of all assistive living facilities by residents. A+

Nicest facility in the area. But rooms are very small. You could go "stir crazy" in there. Not really sufficient space in living area for 2 recliners and a TV with room to get by. Lots of common area throughout facility, but unlikely to be used much. Most amenities would not be used by [Removed].

All Is Going Well

What I like about the community is that they are better trained for Alzheimer and attentive. I sense that they care about mom and the residents. Some are much better than other but they are still learning. The facility is nice and the memory care is on the first floor with an enclosed courtyard. It has a covered porch with a fan, for the hot days, trees that have shaded and flowers too. They can look or go outside and it offers a lot in terms of surroundings.

My mother in law was here for a respite stay, and for the most part it was a good experience. They have a good staff here, they were very helpful and caring. They do a good job with keeping the community nice and very clean. She was cared for well here. She enjoyed playing bingo, and she would do brain stimulating activities with the staff.

Inspired Living is perfect if you're looking for Assisted Living that looks and feels like an upscale hotel. Great location and the staff is excellent. We choose them for the above reasons and they have a nice staffed fitness center. I gave it 4 stars since it's a little pricey and so far we haven't used the activities, hopefully that will change.
