It doesn't get any better than Independence Village. My mother came to for a respite visit. She has been treated like a Queen. The staff catered to her every need. She said it's like a family and everyone gets along very well. She had to go to the hospital and they brought her flowers. They have an ambassador program and they came to visit her, take her to lunch, and share the great services Independence Village offers.
