Venice Green Village

My mother has been at Venice Green Village for over a year. It gives me peace if mind to know my mother is being well cared for. Her health has actually improved now that she's eating better and gets her medication at the proper times.

Venice Palms Senior Living

4.5
There were some initial rough spots when [name removed] first went, some I expect are normal to everyone adjusting to a new living arrangement and some because of the transition to new owners and staff changes.

The Woodlands in Cape Coral, FL
