The staff are incredibly professional and helpful. From on boarding to settling in, the staff made the transition seamless. The layout of the facility is perfect for our LO. She will mistake the place for a cruise ship!

PositiveReview for Tessera of Brandon
Still very happy with them. Mom is doing great. Absolutely would recommend to others.
★★★★★
PositiveA Great Location with a thoughtful staff.
There were four recommendations back in September,appointments made....[communities removed] were ruled out. She liked Tessera and [community removed]....:in the end she picked Tessera....but the transition has been painful. She has been difficult, but I know she will come around. They are very thoughtful and the staff will drive you nuts if you let them. Some times too much attention. My Mom went on her first day trip this week and she enjoyed it. The PR and Hair Salon are also good.
★★★★★
PositiveCaring Tessera
I'm very impressed with the staff which is caring and attentive to the memory care residents. Whether helping feed them or leading group activities or engaging them in conversation, they interact with each person at the appropriate level for their individual situation.
