Key Review Excerpts

I've been to this place several times as my Aunt is there... everyone seems really nice and caring but I have to say that one nurse totally stands out as going above and beyond with her caring...Lola is her name and she is AMAZING!

Family member of resident · 2025★★★★★

My mom has been at Whitely Place for about a month now and I cannot think of a better place to care for her. The caregivers are all wonderful. I also can't say enough great things about Stephen, the Wellness Director.

Family member of resident · 2025★★★★★

When I first dropped by unannounced to tour before she moved in, I was pleasantly surprised to see how all of the residents in memory care looked - their hair was clean and the ladies’ faces were made up, and everyone was wearing clean clothes.
