Key Review Excerpts

The Ivy of McKinney is far and away the best best place. Their service & staff is second to none. They have a leadership team (James Fisher, Renee Najarro and care coordinator Nyree) that I would stack against any.

Family member of multiple residents · 2022★★★★★

My dad is so happy at The Ivy of McKinney. They take really good care of him and you can be told that they really do care about each and every person. There are so many activities that each day is just a joy.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

The staff at The Ivy has been very helpful and kind especially thru the difficult time of losing his wife. And in the isolation that has come as a necessity due to the pandemic, they have continuously looked for ways to break the monotony with appropriate activities.
