The Avalon - Sparrows Point assisted living facility was recommended by some people we knew in the Plano area. We checked it out as an option for our uncle. It looked like a nice living community with a home-style atmosphere. We could see that the residents there are content and well cared for when we arrived. Each room had nice views with a calming, yet not boring décor featuring lots of fresh air and light. The interior design was nicely ordered and easy to navigate. The private rooms were decorated tastefully with a homey, light and airy atmosphere. Each unit had nice views of the surrounding area. Bathrooms were designed with safety seats and rails. The main dining room had a comfortable and spacious decor. The residents are offered healthy, home-style cooked meals in a casual restaurant setting. The food looked and smelled delicious, as well as healthily prepared. The menus included many interesting dishes, as well as the usual American fare. Snacks are offered regularly throughout the day and whenever desired. The exercise center includes daily yoga and aerobics exercise classes. The equipment is available throughout the day and they also offer instruction on DVD. The many activities include and there is a billiard room. The calendar of events included many stimulating activities like fun ways to exercise with nature walks and the opportunity to enjoy all that Plano and the surrounding areas have to offer.
