University Senior Living

Food: unknown - food service was very responsive to special diet/food prep needs, but my father was only able to eat the first couple of days he was there and was not able to communicate regarding flavor/taste. I don't have a great deal more to say, because my dad was only there for a little more than a week, and was dying, not conscious for most of that time. I am incredibly appreciative of how helpful the care staff were. They were the only facility that was willing to take my dad directly from the hospital (ther

Great option for assisted living residence

I would give the University Living residence 5 stars. It's clean, attractive & the staff I interacted with are very pleasant & helpful. Huge bonus that residents can order off a menu in the dining room from 7 AM to 7 PM daily (instead of set mealtimes)! I've not run across that before. The lease/on-boarding process was a bit lengthy/tedious, but I suppose that's pretty standard & it was complicated by the fact that I was submitting information on behalf of someone else, not myself.

University Senior Living really had everything I was looking for for my sister. I particularly liked the in-room fall monitor. I always worry about my sister falling and not being able to get help. This would slove that problem because the system would know that she had fallen. [Name Removed] was great to work with. She was knowledgeable and friendly which made a really great impression. All in all, a great tour.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this wonderful feedback, and thank you for coming to see us for a tour! We understand the struggles that can come from wanting the best for our family members, but not always being able to be present when they may need assistance. Please know that we are here for you both for anything you may need - questions, concerns, follow-up visits - and we hope that you find the right space for her, that also helps you feel better about her safety and happiness. We appreciate you!

The activities coordinator, [name removed], is amazing! You'll have to ask my Dad about improvement opportunities, but I do know his onboarding was pretty rough

Review for University Senior Living

Our family has been so impressed with university senior living. Every staff member feels like family, the facility feels like a five star hotel, and our whole experience was a great blessing. My mom’s room was very spacious, welcoming, cozy and beautiful. The dining area is amazing! It looks and feels like a high class restaurant! Beautiful place settings and menus on the table with a large variety of options! I don’t think I could recommend a better place. If you’re looking for assisted living for a loved one, thi
