What this means for your family

Baxter Senior Living is widely praised for its vibrant social atmosphere and attentive management, making it an excellent choice for those in assisted living. However, given the serious allegation regarding the memory care unit, we strongly advise families to schedule an unannounced visit to the memory care wing and observe staff-resident interactions firsthand before committing.

While most reviews praise the facility's cleanliness and the staff's dedication, there is a serious allegation regarding the treatment of residents in the memory care unit that warrants further investigation by prospective families.

Key Review Excerpts

Mom is so happy with the social community, the activities, prepared meals and her own space in a very comfortable one-bedroom apartment.

Assisted living family member · 2024★★★★★

The management and caregiving staff have supported her every step of the way. It feels less like a facility and more like a community where residents have the opportunity to get involved and support each other.

Memory care family member · 2024★★★★★

Baxter Senior Living is a community-- not an institution.
