Pros and Cons

Emergency surgery, six weeks in the hospital affected my once very active lifestyle. Churchman Village removes some of the challenges I face, allowing me to focus on physical and emotional needs . I am learning to mitigate the cons while enjoying the pros. Staff—I rate 4.5 stars. Food—I rate 2 stars, so I cook for myself. My one-bedroom apartment—I rate 4.5 stars. Neighbors—I rate 4.5 stars. Activities—I rate 4.5, my interests are different and I am free to persue them. External environment—I rate 2.5 stars, lacks

Not a good experience

Hasn't been a great experience there and now I'm hearing they are for sale. Staff isn't very helpful or friendly when I've been, also been there at a time when someone needed assistance and no one was in the facility at all and the rehab side wouldn't help. I helped the lady and called 911 for her. I would not recommend them at this point.

Wonderful Staff!

I can't thank the staff at The Atrium enough. My mom is so happy there. [name removed] as the director is working all hours for the betterment of the residents. [name removed], the activities director, is a joy. My mom loves her and my mother talks about all the staff in the warmest of terms. They've become her second family. Bless the Atrium staff for their commitment to their residents.

Great Place

The Atrium at Churchman Village is a great place. It is a very clean facility, the people are all extremely nice, and the value for the money is great. Apartment sizes are large and spacious as well. $[removed]for a one bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, living room.

Our families experience

Ok, this is what we thought of it back in 2019-2020: Prior to the lockdown in 2020, my aunt & our family thought it was a pretty good place for Independent Living, that included all her meals.
