Overall sentiment in these reviews is strongly positive with repeated emphasis on compassionate, hands-on caregiving and clean, well-maintained living spaces. Many reviewers highlight that staff are kind, caring, and attentive — from nurses and CNAs to medication aides and kitchen personnel — and that residents feel loved and well cared for. Multiple families report very positive outcomes (for example, a family member stating their grandmother considers it the best decision), and several reviewers describe the environment as homey, safe, and fun, with active social programming and regular daily check-ins that reinforce a sense of attentiveness and connection.
Facilities and physical layout receive consistent praise. The community is described as clean and attractive, with well-kept grounds and right-sized houses that feel accessible. Reviewers mention an on-site duplex option and that some housing is walkable to the main building for meals, which supports resident independence and convenience. Dining is noted as flexible and resident-focused; reviewers call out a menu-order option and supportive kitchen staff who contribute to resident satisfaction. Overall the physical plant and dining experience are presented as strengths that complement the quality of care.
Staff quality and responsiveness are recurring themes: nursing staff, CNAs, med aides, and kitchen employees are repeatedly described as positive, supportive, and responsive to resident needs. Several reviews specifically praise the administration and responsiveness of leadership, and some families report routine communication such as daily calls, which indicates effective family engagement practices. Activities programming is also highlighted as a meaningful element of daily life, with reviewers noting lots of fun activities and a generally happy atmosphere.
However, a notable pattern of concern emerges around management changes. While older leadership (a previous director and director of nursing) is described as 'awesome' by at least one reviewer, other comments report that newer leadership (new director and DON) have been 'nasty and manipulative' and that complaints have been filed with the state. There are also remarks suggesting owners may be emphasizing revenue ("seeking more money"), which some reviewers view negatively. These comments introduce a significant caveat: while day-to-day caregiving and the physical environment are praised, recent administrative turnover and alleged problematic leadership behavior have created worry for some families.
Other practical concerns are limited but worth noting: parking issues were mentioned and may affect visitors and families. Most reviews did not list negatives beyond the management and parking items, and several reviews explicitly stated no negatives were observed.
In summary, Carrington Place Senior Living is consistently described as a caring, clean, and well-maintained community with strong caregiving staff, responsive frontline employees, flexible dining, and engaging activities that produce positive family outcomes. The primary area to investigate further is recent leadership turnover and associated complaints; prospective residents and families should ask about current management stability, any resolved or open complaints with state regulators, and how administration is addressing family concerns. Additionally, confirm parking arrangements during visits. If the current leadership issues are resolved or addressed, the community's many strengths in care, facilities, and programming make it a compelling option according to these reviews.
