My father is 82 and relucate to live in an assisted living center. However, we could not provide the care or supervision he needed in our "on the go family". Spring Arbor in OBX has been a great place. We decorated his room and made it look like home and brought all his favorite things. The staff are always nice and there when you need them. Our family has been very happy with the care my father has received at the center and would recommend it highly to anyone. They are still independent as they have their privacy, but it's nice to know there is someone there all the time and managing medications which can be a full time job. Communication with the center is the key to a successful relationship and making sure your parent is having a good experience. I've eaten the food too and I think it's great! They have planned activities, and it's hard to get older adults involved, but they make it easier. I would highly recommend.
