PositiveWonderful facility. Very welcoming and well maintained. Unfortunately the cost for a respite stay was way out of our price range. Hoping to get a short respite stay of 1 week apparently it is not available in most facilities. The minimum stay is 30 days which would be more than $[removed]. I understand level of care does drive the price up a bit . It’s just unfortunate a shorter stay isn’t an option for care givers who need a short reprieve.
Response from the communityThank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're glad to hear about your positive experience with us! Unfortunately, we do have a minimum stay of 30 days for all respite stays, but we hope you found a community that fit your needs.

PositiveGreat Experience!
My mom has been living at Arbors for almost a year now and it's been a great experience overall. The staff is welcoming and I love seeing the managers out and about with the staff and residents. They have a dog too! Nothing like being greeted by a sweet lab named [Name Removed]. Programs are 7 days a week and nurses is there around the clock. If my mom declines, she doesn't have to move. The building is older, but Arbors has been around for at least a decade, so it goes to show how good they are. My Mom isn't alway…

Staff who know the residents and genuinely care. Good communication. Programs that engage the residents. Especially live music a few times a month. My husband sang every song.

Extra hydration offered at end of a group activity. Very clean facility.
