I would recommend.

My mother is in memory care. I know they do the best possible, but I think they should have at least a couple more caregivers on weekends. I feel very comfortable with the overall care and I am positive that they care about each resident and value them and take their individual care seriously and with compassion and attentiveness. I would not hesitate in recommend The Groves to family and friends. Please don't construe my answers. I have no criticism of anyone there. They are a blessing to our family. I cannot imag

Friendly staff

They had excellent reviews and the location was a perfect fit. I remember [name removed] stopped and interacted with the residents while she was taking us on a tour, and it was clear that the residents were cared for. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. I believe they genuinely care for my mom..

Critical

Terrible Experience!!

Tera Bella is the most awful place to ever put a loved one. Their management purely stinks. They lie they steal. I miss things. My husband's clothes broke his shaver. Lied to me. Never even medicated him right at the end wouldn't bathe him. It was a horrifying and still is and will always be experience for me. I would give them a zero and X I wouldn't recommend them to a solitary person. I don't know if I will ever ever recover from such a terrible experience as them. They treated me very badly. It's horrifying to
