Pleased with our experience

We chose Inspired Living because of the location, the appearance of the facility, and I knew somebody that was connected over there, so it seemed like a good fit. I think the administrative staff are very attentive and caring towards the residents. Their biggest downfall is they are not great with communication to families. Overall, I would recommend to others looking.

My experience with Inspired Living

We chose Inspired Living at the time because the director was very nice and the price was right. The location was also great for us. Everything was great in the beginning then started to go downhill once management and staff members changed. The communication was not great, they never called me. They did have a big covid outbreak and had to isolate some of the residents and split everyone up. After all of this, then they raised the rent $500 a month. We ended up moving my wife out of here to a different place.

I would probably to tell them to look somewhere else other than this community. I feel that they weren't attentive to my loved one. We were telling them what needed to be done with my loved one, repeatably. The food was good for my loved one. The room was a single room and it was dark and old. The space was good.

We are happy with it, but there are things that could be improved.

We are happy with it, but there are things that could be improved. Getting people to the dining are could be easier. It was an apartment building before so getting a walker through the doorway is tough, it's not the most accessible building. They building does go on lock down at night, so there is security and that is good. I think I would give it about a three at this point.

The first thing I noticed when I was touring was that this location looked very dated. There was paint chipping off of the walls in places, which made me worry what the care would be like if maintenance was an issue. Also the residents seemed to be on the higher end of the care spectrum, and Mom needed a more active community.
