★★★★★
PositiveAll the staff were delightful. [name removed] was compassionate and addressed all our questions and concerns. She’s a great Ambassador for the Pearle. The facility was very clean and the residents appear to be safe and happy. We certainly ranked it #1 in ALL the Memory Care facilities we toured for the week.
★★★★★
CriticalIf you have a loved one who has dementia it'll probably cost you [Amount Removed] a month to keep that person in the facility with you paying for outside support in this matter.

PositiveOne of the most attractive features is space. Residents are able to go out into garden, at will. The residents can walk all day or night on indoor track. Constant turnover of helpers makes it hard on residents. The residents become accustomed to workers and they become friends . When they move to other jobs. Adjustment to new workers trying to dress or toilet them often combative. Until residents get to know them.

PositiveI have been very pleased with the facility. They try very hard to keep the residents occupied for the most part. They serve well balanced meals and snacks. The staff has been really great with my husband as he is one that doesn't stay still most of the time.
