Can't say enough about the staff at Porter Place! From the front desk, Portia and Dawn are very welcoming. Annetta keeps the rooms clean. Gertrude, Magda and Brooke are some of Moms care takers. I know I am leaving some staff out, but everyone there gives there all and are so wonderful!

Porter Place is fantastic. While my dad wasnt here for a long time, our family found the staff to be attentive, caring and engaged. The care he received was far superior to his previous care facility. The facility and staff are equipped to handle a variety of issues and needs. The building and rooms are very nice and they offer many activities and trips for residents. Thank you to ALL of the staff for taking care of our loved one. A special thank you to Kelly who is fantastic and makes the process so simple and easy to move a loved one to the facility; and Anedra who is so caring and thoughtful. All the staff are awesome that we had the opportunity to engage with. Thank you for what you do on a daily basis!

This place is absolutely ridiculous. They have been caring for my aunt for less than a year and have raised her price 3 times even though she is at the same level of care as when she went in. Insisted she go on hospice because she needs oxygen from the Covid they gave her. They lost her wheelchair while she was in the hospital with Influenza and refuse to pay for it. They also claim they have all these activities. The only activity I ever see is sitting in front of the TV, whole the workers are sitting around. I have found my aunt with 2 diapers and a pad on so they don’t have to change her as often. Don’t bring your loved ones here!

Porter Place takes wonderful care of my MIL. Caregivers are sweet and supportive. Facilities are well taken care of. Nice that it’s only Memory Care and small. Only 66 patients and staffed well. Food is great. Activities all day long. Mia, Sheila, Charlie, Gertrude, Bryan, Dawn, and Porsha are only a few of the great people caring for our loved ones. Families are welcome here.
