Morningside of Gastonia

The Facility is very clean and the staff are very friendly and caring. They have been very kind to my mom. I always feel very welcome when I visit my mom. They have great meals for the residents and the dining staff are wonderful.

Brookdale Harbison in Columbia, SC

4.0
My experience with Brookdale is positive. It is much more important than I initially realized to carefully match the capabilities of the prospective resident to the level of care the facility offers.

Brookdale Columbia

I chose the community due to close to my home and the staff was welcoming. The cost was reasonable for my Dads needs now and in the future along with the cleanness.
