2 Independent Living Communities in Tavares, Florida

As a current client, when I heard that someone from Right at Home was taking me to surgery, staying there, and then making sure I get home safely, I was so relieved. It was a big thing for me. They started off being caregivers for my husband. They were here 24 hours a day for him on different shifts. Basically, they did a marvelous job of taking care of him. Now, they're taking me for anything that I need. I had to go through cataract surgery and they were taking me to the doctor's for that, whether it be for the surgery or for the appointment. Also a caregiver is here doing housework for me. I have multiple sclerosis, so I'm somewhat handicapped myself. She does my housework, she changes the bed, she does the floors, she does the bathroom, and she keeps my kitchen clean. She is very compassionate and very helpful. They're very good. I don't have any problems at all.

We chose Brookdale Lake Tavares because it was reasonable, we get everything, and the room is spacious. We’re impressed, the people were very good, and answered all our questions. We ate there and it was very good, the 2-bedroom, and 1-bedroom was very nice, and I couldn’t find any negatives. The building was 40 years old, a lot of the rooms were renovated, but it’s very sturdy and presentable. We will be moving there.

I toured Brookdale Lake Tavares, and it seemed like it would be a nice place. The staff was very helpful and very nice. The dining area looked nice. The room seemed accommodating, and better than some I’ve read about.

I'm using Right at Home Lake and Sumter Counties. They're doing fine, they send people when I want them, and we have had no problems. They responded the fastest of the three agencies I called. The caregivers are very good, prompt, and helpful. They help my fiancée since she had a stroke and cannot walk by herself. They transfer her from wheelchair or walk with her if she wants to walk.

Osprey Lodge was very expensive and the rooms were not much better than my mother's room. She has a lot more room where she is, but it's a beautiful facility. They have music going on and they have some beautiful community areas, but if you're in a less secure unit, you can't have access to them anyway. It was well-maintained, and the residents were very well taken care of. I saw two gardens there.
