my mother lived here and all of our family members were very impressed with her choice to live here
I have been here 2 years and am very comfortable
there are at least 3 other residents who are "second generation" residents
staff is most respectful - always available -friendly and caring - many with long employment histories here
residents are very friendly - smiling faces, lots of laughter and kindness - many have been here more than 10 years
there are constant activities indoors and outdoors in our beautiful, well-tended, court yard and walking track - activities include - physical, educational, celebratory, seasonal, faith based and just for fun - all of which are well attended by residents
lunches and dinners have published menus but also use the bistro menu with 25 choices
meals for special activities are outstanding and plentiful - there have been stuffed mushrooms, chocolate mousse, cooked to order prime rib, bacon wrapped roasted asparagus, -
priority is given to residents at the on-site health care center for convalescence, rehab
included in the rent are free transportation to appointments and other events both personal as well as shopping, banking, meals off site, nature outings and local sight seeing
the pool and sauna are open everyday year-round for activities and personal use
there are apartments available to family members from out of town at an extremely low cost and meeting rooms that can be reserved at no cost by residents for non-residential groups
residents are welcomed and encouraged participate on committees who meet to express resident views on food services, library, gardening, volunteer organizations, building issues and more
our gift shop, run by volunteers, has a plethora of things a resident might need or just want - greeting cards, jewelry, needle and thread, stamps, ice cream, games and even eggs
we do not have chandeliers or lots of shiny glass, a movie theater nor an ice cream parlor - this is our home, and we have room and places for all our activities - friends and neighbors to laugh with and enjoy - games to play - places to go - and even turtle parades
come join us – you’ll love it

My mother lives here. This facility has fallen into a miserable state of disrepair. For months one of the two elevators has been out of service. The big one is not working - it is an old Otis elevator. The small one is used for everything to serve the 6-story building. Due to COVID-19 distancing restrictions, only 3 people are allowed in the working elevator at one time. It will be a big problem, and burden for the Fire Department, when a major (non-fire) emergency happens requiring rapid evacuation of the top floors.

With the recent Good Samaritan Society affiliation, Sanford Health, one of the largest health systems in the United States, brags that they deliver integrated health care, genomic medicine, senior care and services, global clinics, research and affordable insurance to people in 26 states and nine countries. They have more than $5 billion in annual revenue, yet can't fix an elevator.
