What Our Residents Say

"Discovery commons is a beautiful facility. My mom has been there for over a year. Her care team is very attentive and there whenever she needs them. She tells us all the time how nice they are. Any time we needed to talk to someone they were always ready to accommodate. I highly recommend this facility for your loved one. "
Martha P.
Daughter of Resident
“From first contact to moving in the staff have been nothing but helpful, supportive, understanding and attentive. The level of care and support there is exactly what my family was looking for.”
Matthew M.
Family Member of Resident
“My lifelong friend, Karen, moved to Discovery Commons around 9 months ago. The staff at Discovery Commons were great to work with from the introduction to the facility, the move in and getting acclimated in her new home. Any challenges expressed have been dealt with quickly and with kindness and compassion for the best outcome for Karen. Having on-site nurses and doctors is helpful and makes it much easier to get medical help.”
