Recent reviews for assisted living in Indian River Shores

The Cabana at Jensen Dunes in Jensen Beach, FL

4.3
It was positive but intake staff did not do a very thorough job making sure all documents were in order and when a DNR situation arose this created a crisis. My dad ended up passing away from Covid contracted during his stay - total time in Cabana was less than 2 weeks.

Norwood Assisted Living in Merritt Island, FL

5.0
I’m thrilled with the place. It was the only place that we were smiling when we left. The food is good and they are adaptive – even incorporating family recipes into the menu when possible. The administration and staff are just great.
