“We just returned from spending a few days with my father-in-law who has recently moved to Discovery Commons. Our experience could not have been any better. Spending time there is like being in a small town. Residents know and check in with each other and the staff is very responsive. We felt like we belonged from the moment we walked in."

Son-in-law of a Resident

"My mom, now 98, has been a resident at Discovery Commons for over five years. We are very impressed with the beautiful facility, its cleanliness, and layout. The care team is great and folks in the administrative offices are very responsive to our needs. As time has gone on, we have required higher levels of care and are very thankful for the leadership of the nursing director and her staff. In summary, we highly recommend Discovery Commons to others.”
