About East Village Place

When you think of assisted living and memory care, what do you see? If cookie-cutter apartments, quiet hallways, bland food and stereotypical activities come to mind, then think again.  Over twenty years of experience have taught us that today's seniors want more choices and are leading a more active lifestyle than generations before.

Review for East Village Place

It's not been a smooth transition for my parents. They both have had health issues. Most of the staff has been great but a few of the aides have been less than diligent. I sympathize because I think they are overworked and underpaid. Sadly that is the path of our health care system in general. The food has been hit or miss. Sometimes it's great and other times it's awful. Still some adjusting going on for my parents.

Very impressed. Property and common areas were very well kept. The individual rooms are quite spacious and seem to be large, it’s hard to tell with a lot of furniture and some of them. They reported that they have staff members that have been there for a really long time such as 20+ years for some of them.

I found the staff at East Village Place to be very nice and friendly! The director impressed me! She was put on the spot when her sales manager wasn’t available. She was confident, friendly, knowledgeable and very well versed! She knew everyone by name and they all knew her as well! I was given the sense that she was proud of her community! The facility itself was very clean and well appointed. I had the privilege of seeing, firsthand, the community in action. Various available activities like dining, exercising, c

Small and friendly!

The friendliest people we met and the fact it's a smaller facility. Definitely would recommend them!

Care provider review

This Alf has a wonderful and caring atmosphere. The entire staff is focused on the welfare and comfort of the residents. Everyone working there greets any resident they see by name and with a smile. The residents are thriving and the community is rich in activities which are directed towards the interests of the residents.
