Miller Farm Place in Dayton, OH

3.9
The care received is great, I the nurses and staff are wonderful. That is why I decided to take my Dad there. The facility needs to be updated for what the cost is. My experience has definitely been overwhelming, this was a very hard decision for me. I would recommend them.

The staff at Carriage Court is excellent! They all seem to really like their jobs and it shows with the care that the residents receive.

Trinity at Fairborn

We moved my loved one here after a negative experience at another memory care community, and they've been better in every way. It is a much more secure facility, and the staff are doing a much better job handling his wandering issues.
