What families are saying about independent living in Linwood

Recent reviews for independent living in Linwood

Brookdale Meridian

3.1
My mom is diabetic and we pay extra for that. The nurses need educating on how to treat when blood sugar is low. The food is usually too spicy and too much pepper. The combination of food choices per meal doesn't go well together. Food portions are skimpy.

Atwood Personal Care Home in Kosciusko, MS

4.5
This community is clean and bright and the location is very close to our family so we can visit quite often. It also was the least expensive in the area. Right now we aren't sure what all activities they have, those are still pretty limited due to restrictions still in place.

Meridian Living

5.0
My Aunt [name removed] is living there. There's lots of activities and things for them to do. All the staff is exceptional. Anything you need they help you out. I truly appreciate everything being done for her and us as a family. God bless you all ????
