My mother spent 7 1/2 years at Island Assisted Living. I believe that it extended her life. She made many friends over the years and everyone looked out for her. Each aide went over and beyond. There were a couple in particular that my mother became attached to and made all the difference. The receptionists were always attentive and helpful. The doctor's office and nursing staff always answered my concerns concerning my mother's care. The social worker was also helpful. Even though the facility went through some administrative changes, my mother's care never changed. I would recommend Island without reservation, it worked for my mother.
