It's never a good time to decide on assisted living facilities. Portland Place has been a great fit for our Dad. The staff is very caring and shows love constantly to the residents. They never hesitate to reach out to us about things we need to know. So happy with the whole place... !!

Trustwell Living at Clyde Gardens Place

Overall they do a fantastic job. They were changing a lot of staff when my mom passed away. So I would tell them to check out and talk to some of the residents now residing there. There were quite a few that were pretty independent.

Courtyard at Fremont

I love the size of the home. It seems warm and friendly. All the nurses and aides know all the residents. The activities director does a wonderful job planning trips and monthly events.
