Oakwood Village Prairie Ridge Independent Living Apartments a CCRC in Madison, WI
4.0
The week day staff is compassionate and well trained and employed by Oakwood. The weekend staff is hired from an agency and the care and compassion is lacking. They are working on fixing this but claim there are not enough people interested in this type of work.
Coventry Village in Madison, WI
4.4
We chose Coventry Village because of their availability and responsiveness. Staff met with us almost immediately when we contacted them.
The people are really nice, but the overall place seems to be under-resourced.
