Franciscan Village was fine, but they didn’t really seem like they were all on top of trying to get a hole of somebody to get the information, so that was a little difficult. But I think they help us as much as they could. It’s very clean, very bright, and lots of activities going on. That was difficulty a good choice. My aunt said she didn’t like the food, but there were a couple of choices every day. The staff was very patient and caring.

The rooms, activities, and food at Franciscan Village seem fine. The staff seems to take a little while to become familiar with what a resident’s needs are. I was expecting them to be a lot quicker as far as knowing what my mom’s condition is and how they can help her. We just went to the facility yesterday and had a big meeting with their other department heads, and they seem to be doing a lot better now. They seem responsive to our needs and concerns.
Sometimes it seems like the staff is a little late on the night shift. She usually needs help in the early morning hours and they are kind of on the short staff side. They have church service every day, and they have all the usual games and activities like card games and bingo. They have plenty of things to keep the residents active. The property and the location are perfect and the grounds are beautiful. The food is great. She has not had any complaints about it.

My aunt moved into the Franciscan Village recently. It's a Catholic community. They have both independent-living and assisted-living facilities. They have a full service chapel. The people are friendly. The meal program is comparable to other places that I looked into.They have a full schedule of activities, everything from bingo to bowling, shopping or grocery trips to movies, card playing, darts, and pool. It's quite an extensive list and they publish a monthly calendar of events the week before the first of the month.The last time I was there, I thought the place was excellent and I haven't heard any negative feedback from my aunt. So far, they've already taken her to two doctor's appointments. Overall, my aunt feels comfortable in that kind of environment.

My grandma stayed at Franciscan Village while we went on vacation for a week. When we returned she did not have any complaints other than that she missed us. As well as taking care of her for a week while we were gone Franciscan Village also hosted daytime activities that she could be dropped off at. These activities consisted of baking, making crafts, socializing with other people her age, watching movies, and other things including picnics. Apart from my grandmother going there I also know several people who work there as servers who have said that if they had to go into an assisted living home that is where they would want to go. I have also visited several times with boyscouts who go there to play bingo and sing carols around Christmas time. When playing bingo with the residents everyone always seemed happy. Every employee that I have ever met there was always courteous and friendly completing the warm atmosphere.
