visiting my mom

First of all I had separation anxiety because my mom and I are so close. What I love about Viva is that I am able to come and see about her anytime I need to come. The staff is very understanding to my mom condition and understand the bond we have. I also love that they have my mom join into activity because my mom is not a social person. It warms my heart to know that she is active and that the staff is taking care of her.

Terrible

All they care about is money , not their people I regret having our family member sent there. Rooms are nasty never enough staff, and the turnover rate is insane . New faces Everytime we would come visit. The cooks were amazing. The little staff that they did have were good.

Chapters Living of South Bend review

Since they care for dementia patients they work well with them. Room size is nice not too big or small. Bathrooms are large with her shower. You are your own decorator. It could be simple or as elaborate as you like.
