Key Review Excerpts
“The memory care unit at the Villa has been a godsend for my mother who has dementia. The staff is loving, gentle, and all inclusive.”
“In her last days, I was at Addolorata 24/7. I was absolutely astounded by the level of care from all the staff, top down. Many I had never encountered before because I usually just visited in the afternoon. Every client is treated with dignity.”
“The staff is outstanding - very caring and kind, attentive and professional. They were terrific to my Mom - she truly felt loved, safe and cared for.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
