My mother-in-law lived in Summit's Memory Care for over a year before we moved her in March 2026 to be closer to other family. The hardest part of the move was taking her away from several devoted, compassionate Summit caregivers - Grace, Virginia, and Sheena are amazing women that treat the residents like family. My 3 star rating is based on the difficulties we had with the frequent turnover (sometimes unbeknownst to the families) of the management/supervisory team and also because of the influx/use of Agency caregivers that created inconsistency of care.

I moved to The Summit about a year ago and find out a very nice place to be. I enjoy the staff very nice and Lisa is really a nice lady. She’s helped me a lot and all the guests that live here are really nice so there’s a lot to look forward to. They even have exercise place where Bayata is great cause I have to get some PT as also nice to have the workout room so many things are incorporated in here. Keep up the good work,
