5.0
This facility is great with family and the residence, they were patient with everyone. The food was amazing and they had a chef on staff. I would recommend this facility to others

Sterling Meadows Assisted Living in Mount Sterling, KY

4.8
It has been a good experience. The facility is spacious, and my dad has plenty of room to roam and walk around, either in the hallways or outside. They seem to attend to him very well. And he seems to be happier there than he was at home. You can't ask for much more than that.
