The Villa St Elizabeth

The facility is old, but well kept. There is a lovely patio when weather is nice. There is a large living room & study to sit inside. My mom said food is great & her bed is comfy. My mom has a private room; shares a bath with 3 other ladies. This is most we can afford. There are several price points depending on what you want & can afford. The staff is attentive & very nice. I think it's a reasonable price & currently meets her needs.

I toured this Community recently researching for my parents. Beautiful grounds and design. Elegant victorian building truly feels like a luxurious mansion or hotel instead of a clinical facility. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Nice amenities and options

Critical

This is a big mansion community, and that is all my tour was about. The history of the mansion, which I really didn't think my father cared about. The people at this community didn't really have personalty. They were kinda of blend. The layout of the facility was odd. They have long hallways, and it felt like it could get confusing. There was a bad odor lingering around the community. I knew this wasn't the facility for my parents.

Not a good time!

The people here did what they could for my mom I guess. My mother needed more care than what they could give her. At the night time there was never any nurses available to be able to help mom when she needed it. It was not a nice experience.

A Great Place

Two months ago, my mother was living by herself in a first floor apartment. Things were going pretty good for a while and it took her some time to adjust to the fact that at 72 years old, it was time to retire. She has had 2 major lung surgeries that put her in a rehabilitation hospital for 2-3 weeks each time but seem to be getting through it. However, 2 months ago, she started forgetting things and started to take her medication incorrectly. She had several falls at home and the last one almost did her in. She we
