  • 4Since the facility offers continuing care, how does the transition process look if a resident's medical needs change and they require more intensive nursing support?
  • 5How does the staff ensure that the secure living environment remains comfortable and feels like a true home for the residents?

Key Review Excerpts

I moved in 11 months ago, during Covid restrictions and then the major renovation of our main building, including the dining room, began. In spite of these challenges, I was made to feel welcomed by both residents and staff. I have also had two hip replacements, and had a very positive experience with both the Health Center and with the Clinic. Love it here!

Resident · 2022★★★★★

My parents have thrived at the Manor. I describe it as summer camp. Residents lead most of the activities, and I think that keeps them young.

Family member · 2021★★★★★

Living here maintains our independence but with the comforting knowledge that we already have made our most important end-of-life decisions. So we can just relax and enjoy this well-planned community, its smartly designed living units, its absolutely gorgeous location, and its nearly perfect weather.
