What our Families are Saying

My mother has been in Memory Care here for 5 years. I have the peace of mind that knowing she is cared for, entertained and loved. There are many activities and they often take her over to the AL side to watch even though she isn’t very verbal. The food always smells and looks wonderful and there’s always a variety. When you walk in it’s airy and bright and cheerful and is immaculate. But most importantly my mom always seems happy and wears a smile. The staff is attentive and ensures my mom’s needs are met. I am thankful for Churchland House and the care they provide for their residents.

– Shelley Ullom

Highly recommend this warm, caring, family-friendly community. Leadership is strong and consistent, not a revolving door, which is vital in the healthcare industry. They communicate, listen and provide solutions, which is comforting.💝
