Happy with our choice

I would give a 5 to all the categories. We are very pleased with Ecumen Centennial and my mother loves it here I like the building itself because it's all on one level. No stairs or elevators. It looks like 3 houses all connected by light-filled halls. And the gazebo room is very inviting. My mother's room is plenty big with a walk-in closet and bathroom with a shower.

[name removed], the facility manager, was very pleasant and knowledgeable. She spent time initially getting an idea of my mother's living needs at present and as her Alzheimer's progresses.

It is one level and not as large and imposing as some of the newer assisted living places. Mom seems to be adjusting well to her new home, and we couldn't be happier!
