Frequently Asked Questions
[expand title=”What are the visiting hours?”]
We are always open to visitors. However, we recommend visiting between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. This assists us with ensuring appropriate time for residents to have their breakfast and be up and dressed for visits. In the evening, some of our residents retire early. As most rooms are semi-private, late evening visits can be disturbing to a roommate.

[expand title=”Does each room have a television?”]
Television is provided in common areas for the enjoyment of all residents. If you would like to bring a television for your room, we recommend that a small television set be brought into the facility for those residents who would be more comfortable with a TV in their room. Please be sure to bring in an appropriate stand to hold the TV. All rooms have cable service available. Cable is provided for our residents at no additional charge.
