10 Assisted Living Communities in Sumter County, Florida

Tyler

Understaffed, unclean, under qualified staff and a management that is adding patients to an already overwhelmed system. It is a terrible place and especially for end of life care. If your loved one needs anything more than basic care, get them out of there. My moms rooms was disgusting. Never cleaned in the 10 days I was there. Never turned in her bed, barely checked on, mismedicated and never bathed. There are good people trying to do good work, but they are overwhelmed. Do not let your loved one stay here.

Inspiritas is a fantastic community. They layout is perfect for Memory Care, the staff are great and the food is really good! I highly recommend them!

Caring relative

This place has gone down hill fast. We are lucky to get 1 shower a week for my incontinent relative. Lost clothes and personal items missing, no sheets on bed on several occasions. Laundry piled up constantly. Staff shortage is partly to blame but if they are so short staffed why do they take all these new people.

The American House Wildwood is a very nice facility. They gave us a very good tour of the facility and probably have everything we need from them. The staff was excellent, they were engaging, friendly, we ate lunch and the people in the dining room were very nice and very helpful. I would give an A+ to the staff. We went everywhere, we saw 2-3 different apartment sizes, we went to their gym, to their movie theater, we went to every room that was in the place.

I went to the American House Wildwood yesterday. It had a nice, big entryway, and then when you go to the dining room, you actually go out by where the pool is, and the pool is very inviting. I experienced the dining room, which to me was a fantastic, resort-style dining room. There was a girl in the dining room who brought me back to the entryway after I ate; she was very nice. I talked to a couple of residents there. In fact, when I was eating, a few of them smiled and waved at me, so they were very friendly residents. I talked to one lady who had been there four years, and she said that it's her home, and she just loves it there. They definitely liked the place. I really liked that place. They have a menu that you can choose from. They have things that are on the menu every day, then they have special, different meals each day, and they have open dining, so you can go anytime to eat. You don't have to be at breakfast at the break of dawn. It's almost like you're on vacation.

My mom is in a place called Buffalo Crossings. I think it's nice, but with COVID right now, she's saying there weren't a lot of people, so I just want to take a look on what kind of activities other places have. I think the representatives and the coordinators there were very friendly and nice. My mom also said she likes the food, and it's pretty good. They do bus trips, and I know they have a lot of activities that are scheduled. My mom enjoys what's in there, so I would say it's good. Everybody in the facility has been vaccinated now, which is awesome. They were very proactive in getting everyone vaccinated. The employees are all pretty much vaccinated. I haven't been back in her room, but she is in a studio there. I think it's a very clean and very nice place. Anytime somebody got COVID, I was told right away that they isolated everybody, so I think it's run really well. It's $3800 a month, but it's in Florida so I guess it's fairly reasonable.

Karen

It was very nice and very clean. The rooms were very clean and very lovely. The staff was very pleasant and gave us a lot of information about the place, and even a little bit of history about the resident. They seem to love their job. The area was very nice. I like the place.

Jim

The Willows was very nice. They have a barber shop, beauty salons, pool tables, card rooms, a library, and a theater. They have a nurse on staff 24/7.

Charles

Steeplechase Retirement Residence was an older facility, but it was still very good and well-maintained. They had some openings and a TV for people to watch which was very good. The dining area was excellent. The rooms looked very nice. The person who toured me was very good and helpful.
