We did a tour of Brookdale McMinnville Town Center. They had a couple of open units that they were rehabbing, and they showed them to me. They had 1-bedroom apartments, they were very nice and they had a studio, but they were in the process of fixing it, so I didn't get the chance to look at it. It was very nice, very clean, well done, and well maintained. The people are all nice. My mother likes playing cards and she's very social. When we went there, everybody was wearing a mask, and they were probably 10 feet apart; nobody looked happy. You couldn't see anybody's face, but nobody was really happy in there. Somebody was passing around some little kitties and things, that they are having the people mess around with, which is a nice touch. But the same thing, these people are not older than I am, and it seems kind of sad that they couldn't sit around and talk with each other and exchange their histories and their stories. The staff, did her job, and she was very nice. She showed me everything and explained the situation. I have no idea what the food is there. They said it used to be kind of like a restaurant setting where they have a big dining area and people could eat and talk and do all that, but they don't do that anymore because of COVID. They have to do it in their rooms. So, you order your food, and you eat in your room by yourself. But again, this is COVID, it's not against them. They do a great job there. They maintain the exterior and the interior. They take care of the whole thing. I hate to say it, but it's kind of more of an institutional type thing. It appeared to me when I was looking, that all you can see is people's eyes; So, I have to judge from that. I'm looking at these people and they're all in their 80s and 90s that I could see, or older; and they're just sitting in their chairs, ten feet apart. They can't even talk to each other, it was sad. These people are at the end of their lives, and they know it too. It is very sad they can't sit around and look at each other in the eye and talk to each other.

Not having any knowledge or experience with Adult Care Facilities, we found the Villas folks very helpful. They answered all our questions and gave us information we didn't know to ask about. We had lunch, very good, and were able to see the interaction with the residents. It is a very nice, quiet, clean facility and is has a warm, comfortable feel. We were able to visit a studio room, which was more like an apartment. Nice big windows to look out and clean and comfortable. We were totally impressed with the way the staff interacted with the residents. All in all, we loved it there. I told my wife, "this is where I want to live when it's our time". I'm sure my Mother would love it.
