Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch

Reviewer#RD1212g

We saw Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch. It was bright and clean. The staff was friendly. However, they did not have the continuing care that we were interested in. It's mostly just assisted living. The staff who toured us around was a salesperson. She was too assertive because I told her we weren't interested but she continued to contact us. We saw some other staff members and they were very nice and friendly. The facility was very attractive, very bright, and clean. They had all the amenities. However, because it's mainly assisted living, the room sizes were small. We saw a gym. The dining room was lovely. We saw the pool. It's very lovely, but it doesn't offer what we want. It's near everything except for the hospital.

I've gone to Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch at a time when a lot of people were in the lobby waiting for a bus to take them to an event. You could see that they didn't look as engaged with the world. The staff told me that they like to stay in the lobby together because they like to see people coming in and out. So, I was wondering whether or not that's because there weren't enough activities during the day. The rooms were nice, but they weren't as new and as upscale as the other place I toured, but it was perfectly adequate. They had a lot of places where people could do different things. Some people were outside and they were all smiling and happy. I loved the pool because it was set up in a way that I could understand how my 99-year-old mother could get in it without having to sit in a chair. They had it set up so that they could walk sideways into the pool. It was clever the way they've done that. The staff who assisted me with the tour was good. She knew everything that she needed to say. She answered all my questions. It was a perfectly fine presentation. They gave me some sweet treats and a little box of goodies, which was delicious. They certainly had a great pastry chef. They had different kinds of games and movies. They had a walking group that walked around the outside.

Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch was beautiful, clean, and very nice. Everything was great. The staff during the tour was very good. I have no issues with them at all. They answered all our questions. The dining area was lovely. They were having a singer, little snacks, and something to drink, and they were dancing and singing a song. It was very nice. It's easily accessible to get around.

My mother was a resident of Inspired Living. She came to the community in need of care, and the nurses and aides were wonderful, Her health improved greatly. It was an assisted living community, and it didn't provide the kind of activities necessary to keep my mother stimulated and active. That was frustrating for her, so that's why she wanted to move out. I thought it was good value considering all that they did for the residents. They provided wonderful care for my mother.

Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch was a very nice and clean place. It was very well designed and very well decorated. They had a lot of activities going on when I was there. The staff were happy and enjoying what they were doing. They seemed to be engaged, friendly, and knew their residents by name. The rooms were small but nice, and they seemed to be in good condition.

Inspired Living was a very nice, beautiful facility with very accommodating staff. It’s very nice and clean. My mom needs surgery, and we were thinking she might need assisted living, but once she doesn’t, she does move back to her independent living. We were considering this as a place for her. It was large, queen size bed in the bedroom, and the bathroom was beautiful. it was very handicapped accessible. It has nice living space and beautiful interiors.
