"We like Hyland Campus very much and had put our names on the waiting list. You can start out in the independent living, and if you want to switch to assisted living you don't have to move. You can stay in your independent apartment and they will just..."
"As far as I can tell, the care that Sun Prairie Retirement Center provides to my husband has been very good, I would say excellent. I've never been in the place because of the virus. In some manner, they've accommodated outside visits by having a ple..."
"Mom had a huge room over looking the yard and gazebo. Staff was always friendly. Barb kept us informed. We always stopped in without warning. She was treated like a human being.
Mom had dementia, was on 2nd floor (stairway always locked) and was fre..."
"I am in an independent living facility called KindredHearts Senior Living. I've just moved in this February. My experience is wonderful. I'm in one of one-bedroom apartments. Well, it is only a couple of 100 yards to walk to the three-story building ..."

"The Koselig House Assisted Living and Memory Care was a nice facility. They have everything that we need. The only thing is their rooms are just bigger versions of a hospital room. It's just one area and it was small. It wasn't what we were looking f..."
"My mom moved to Riverwalk Senior Living and it's very clean. The staff is friendly and caring. The room is small enough for one person. They have meals prepared for them. They have a lot of activities. They have a nice place to see outside the window..."
"I like Charter Senior Living of Madison. The atmosphere was more like an apartment living. It had a full kitchen and a patio or a deck off the unit, so I liked that. It was pretty bright and airy. It's newer and everything. The staff was nice. She wa..."
"They seemed good, so I've been in contact with them and I have reserved a spot for my brother there at this point. What I liked the best is it seemed like a very competent and adequate facility. It was just that my brother has a cat that he would lik..."
"My brother moved into The Ridge at Madison. We chose it because they had a 1-bedroom apartment available, and after a certain length of private pay, they will take Medicaid. It is a very clean facility, and everyone seems very friendly. They have eas..."

"Brook Gardens Place had a very nice facility, but it was just that much farther for my family to have to go to see my mother. We went there six weeks ago. They had like a one-bedroom. They have a large common area with a TV. Everything looks very cle..."
"At The Waterford, my mother has received wonderful care. Her apartment is roomy, pleasant and sunny, making for a very pleasant environment. The staff are gems, always helpful and thoughtful about how they give services to Mom. She likes to see th..."
