Celebration Villa of Richmond

5.0
My mom was previously a resident at Brookdale Richmond. The staff loved Mom and said they wanted to take her back when she left. The manager worked to get us the best deal on price. I didn't feel any anxiety when I couldn't be with her.

Trinity at Fairborn

5.0
We moved my loved one here after a negative experience at another memory care community, and they've been better in every way. It is a much more secure facility, and the staff are doing a much better job handling his wandering issues.
