I really wanted to like this facility - but unfortunately couldn’t even get a reply to set up a tour. For years, I’ve thought Tockwotten looked very pretty across the water. Now I’m in the position where I need to look at Assisted Living facilities for my dad, it was a natural thought to look here. I visited the website, sent an inquiry online and received an email back with general information from the marketing director and asking if I’d like to set up a tour. I replied to the email that yes, I was interested in

our families experience

For the value for cost, this is a weak answer as I don't have a whole lot to base my opinion on. The numbers worked for my father and Tockwotton was tops on my list (I've been inside every assisted living facility within 10 miles of East Prov but don't know the cost of any of them. Based on the experience we have had, we would absolutely recommend this community to other families. I want to really thank APFM. You definitely found me, I did not find your organization. You reached out when I really didn't think my f

Look for another facility

Look for another facility...let me tell you why. 1. Falsified medical record as testing positive for COVID. No restrictions, no halt in outside visitors, no symptoms. 2. No one checking on either parent, both not leaving their apartment. 3. Fake menu presented on presentation, never had any of the food mentioned. Paying [removed]+ a month and eating sandwiches for dinner and being served meat that was as tough as leather. Both parents had good appetites and taste and both lost a lot of weight. 4. Fire alarms ra
