Paul's Run was wonderful, and the man who gave me the tour was even more wonderful. It was very nice. They have a studio apartment. It was just one big room, and it was very lovely. I found the people that live there in independent living very welcoming and kind. The staff member spent two hours with me and showed me every aspect. I told him I was very, very interested in assisted living being separate when my time comes, and he showed me, and I saw that they have their own separate area with their own staff, which was very important. I asked the staff to show me the nursing home part, and a lot of people who go in in independent living never want to see the nursing home part, but I did. I noticed that there were staff members all sitting with the nursing home residents. They were out of their rooms for the most part, and I did tell him I was definitely willing to share a room by the time I get to the nursing home part. I'm more interested in people helping me than my privacy. I highly recommend Paul's Run. I talked to two of the residents, and they said the food was absolutely delicious. If you don't like what is being served, they'll always come up with something else for you. They are very good with diet food. The layout was wonderful. The room itself was roomy. It had a kitchen area, which amazed me for an efficiency in a continuing care retirement community. I could cook my own food, and right outside of the apartment, not far, was the washer and dryer. The sitting rooms, the chapel, and the lounges were just wonderful.

Paul's Run Retirement Community is well-kept and very clean. The staff has been wonderful with my mom. Any questions she has, they answer and help her. She's been very happy with the food, too. They play bingo, mahjong, and Wii bowling. They also have exercise classes and entertainment. She was able to get all her furniture and everything into her room. So, it's very ample for her needs.

My father is in Paul's Run, and i think it's great. He's struggling with the adjustment a little bit, and still mourning the death of my mother, so he has his moments where he's not real happy, but the facility is great. They have a really nice meal arrangement, and they're very accommodating with the COVID restrictions. It's independent living, so he has some freedom to leave for the day or go run errands, but they try to encourage them to stay in as much as they can, so they offer to do things like their laundry. The residents would normally do it themselves or they do it for them. They have a really nice chapel inside, and my dad has been going to the gym. It's just really nice. All the people I've met have been great and really friendly. I think it's a really caring place. They could do better on the activities.

My mother is a resident. Facility offers many activities, a supervised gym, tasy meals, and is well maintained. Very pleased with the level of service provided.

I thought the parking and outside entrance of Paul's Run was a lot more congested. It wasn't as suburban feeling as the others were. The apartments were down long hallways and it felt more institutional. I thought the staff there was very nice.

I think Paul's Run is very nice. It's located in a good place where you've got transportation within the facility. It's one of those CCRCs where you can go in for physical therapy or rehab and then you can move up the line to assisted living or to residential, the whole nine yards. It's a little more expensive. They have nice activities and it was a non-smoking facility.

I thought that the staff at Paul's Run was quite friendly and very interactive with the seniors that were living there. It has a beautiful campus with lush apartments available to seniors who would like to stay in more comfortable surroundings. Outside of the at-cost apartments, the rooms available to seniors who cannot afford such amenities were still quite comfortable as well. In the future I would recommend Paul's Run to any other adult looking to provide a secure and safe environment for their elderly parents when they reach the age that they are no longer able to care for themselves..

Paul's run is a beautiful building and is very clean and well kept. Parking is very tuff, be prepared to walk because you must enter threw the front door. Security is very high. They are always increasing their measures to keep the residents safe. The healthcare unit is kept very clean, the residents are always busy with different activities. The staff has a full schedule planned threw the day for the residents.
