Love the place my mom is happy and feels safe. The facility and people are awesome

I moved here into a two bedroom apartment as independent living in January 2022. The second bedroom is my office as I’m still working full time as an attorney with The apartment is beautiful and is actually an apartment; not a room! You have an actual kitchen! I’m not great at taking photos due to cerebral palsy but the point is rarely does a congregate living community offer a unit which feels like any other apartment. The rent is $700 less than what I was paying at another independent living community. The view is wonderful from my balcony. The staff is very caring and attentive and the food is very good! What’s amazing is how affordable it is. UPDATE: I had a serious concern about the lack of notifications on policy changes regarding covid and other issues. Within hours of emailing my concerns to the Executive Director, she and the Regional Nurse met with me and explained the reasons for the change and agreed to work on doing a better job of keeping all residents informed. As a resident of two years, I am still amazed at the commitment of the staff to provide excellent care at such a reasonable rate and would not consider living anywhere else.

I had lived at this facility and would never recommend it to anyone for the following reasons: The food is not what they said it would be, it was awful. The help stole from me and other residents. The staff was very rude, dictating, untruthful, they played favorites with residents that had more money than others. They took advantage of the real elderly by taking their stimulus checks saying they owed it to Lake Morton. A lot of the elderly were afraid to say anything for fear they would be evicted. There is a lot more I want to say but not enough time. Please talk privately to some of the residents to hear what they have to say.

Within hours of emailing my concerns to the Executive Director, she and the Regional Nurse met with me and explained the reasons for the change and agreed to work on doing a better job of keeping all residents informed. Still, I think CDC guidelines are the minimum requirements and some assisted living facilities have put Covid precautions back in place due to the surge. I’m deeply disappointed with the way the corporate management is treating Covid as if it were the flu among such a vulnerable population. Three days later after meeting with the Director, there’s still no notice that residents are responsible for implementing their own protection against coronavirus as well as getting any testing or vaccination. So if you are planning to come here, just be aware of the risks.

The Plaza was recently purchased by another company and there have been menu changes. For the 1st several weeks meals were served in Styrofoam containers. Apparently there was enough of an uproar they are again using glass products for meals. The weekend breakfast menu only has scrambled eggs as an egg option. No fried or over easy which we are not happy with. The cleaning staff does a great job in the individual apartments as well as the common areas. The maintenance crew goes above and beyond. The Plaza is centrally located and is 2 blocks from the bus stop. The transportation policy is a longer distance for Dr Appts and such than most other locations offer. The Lakeland VA as well as Watsons Clinics and Lakeland Hospital are all within 10 miles of the facility. Overall, we are very happy with this location.
