Ansley Parke at Orange City

4.3
I would recommend Ansley Parke at Orange City to a family if their loved one's memory is not too bad. It is not a locked unit and my Dad would sometimes wander. I was actively involved with this issue. I put a GPS in his walker so that I could find him with my cellphone. That part I don't miss!

Deerfoot Manor in Deland, FL
