"Great Place with Nice Apartments and Friendly Staff"
This place is awesome. The food, staff, and apartments are all great. There's a patio off the apartments where you can have plants. It's really nice here. The staff are good to work with. They are cooperative. There are activities for the residents to join in. The location is good and close to my family.

""Questionable Care and Immature Staff at Assisted Living Facility""
Some of the resident helpers here are great and always ready to lend a hand. However, they employ really young workers who act inappropriately, are too loud, and one even falsely reported my mom's blood sugar levels. Instead of checking them properly, she'd just ask my mom to randomly select a number and that's what she'd document as her blood sugar. It doesn't seem fair that the managers play favorites with some of the residents and staff. I even saw one of the young workers hiding to avoid helping residents in need. I wouldn't want it to be my mom in that situation.

"Great Community with Nice Amenities"
This place is pretty big. They have a pond and the grounds are well-kept. They offer lots of nice amenities and special events. The people we met were friendly, and everything was clean. This was our second choice. I recommend checking it out to see if it's right for your loved one.

"Excellent Care and Management at Assisted Living"
This place is just what we wanted for our relative. The people who work here are really good at their jobs and kind. The building is great, super clean, and run very well.

"Great care and resort-like feel at Vernon Woods Retirement Community"
We have been really happy with Vernon Woods Retirement Community. My mom is well cared for and loves it so much she thinks it's like a resort. We feel lucky she gets to live there.

"Mom Adjusted Wonderfully Thanks to Vernon Woods Staff"
Mom has been at Vernon Woods for four months. At first, I was worried if she could handle it, but thanks to the patient and helpful staff, she has adjusted wonderfully. Her apartment is just the right size and has all the features that make assisted living great. The kitchenette is a nice touch, reminding her she’s still independent, even if she doesn’t use it much. I appreciate it being there and see it as added value.

"Mixed Feelings on Assisted Living"
Vernon Woods is a nice place with great food. But, the closets in the apartments are pretty tiny. I always wondered why not many people lived there, and now I know. As my parent got older, we’ve had some big problems with the staff not being nice or even being mean when we asked for things. We tried to talk to the people in charge about it, but nothing changed, so we’ve decided to leave, just like a lot of others did. I couldn’t believe how they treated us. Also, if an older person runs out of money or needs too much help, they might have to leave. It’s not a place that takes care of you for your whole life.
