"I have to report that things have gotten so bad that my wife and I are considering moving from here, which would be at great inconvenience. We, early on, gave up on the food, and were able to get out of the meal plan. The constant presence of mosquitoes presented a very serious problem, and now an outbreak of Covid to which we both succumbed. The problem is that the local management, on a tight leash, from the corporate headquarters, cannot seem to handle these problrms, or even acknowledge how serious they are. The bottom line seems to be a priority. I am very much cognizant of the wonderful care given to those in assisted living and memory care. The staff taking care these patients are wonderful. So are the maintenance staff. But convinced there will be no change with respect to mosquitoes, we may be forced to move away from here, which given our advanced age, is not something that we are eager to do." - Carl…

"My 91 year old Mother-in-Law was a resident for 3 years. My Father-in-Law was a resident for 2 years prior to his death. The food was atrocious and sub-par. Several of the "upper staff" were rude and uncaring, particularly the administrator. We moved my Mother-in-Law to Grand South which was a breath of fresh air. The food is wonderful and prepared by a real chef. Everyone is so nice and nurturing. Thank GOD we got her out of Whitehall!!!!" - Gary…
