I love this place. As a nurse. I know the heslth hazards of the elderly neing isolated. This facility provied a place that provides an atmosphere that allows people to thrive. My mom lives there and its the best thing she did selling her home and moving there. She has met so many friends and loves their social activities. The staff is amazing. My mom can maintain her independence there. The best thing we dont have to worry about her. We know she is safe. Now has a large extended family between the staff and other residents that we know she is loved.

My 86 soon to be 87 year old Dad has lived at South Hills Square for the last almost two years. I feel so glad Dad does not have to worry about maintaining a home, going up and down stairs, not having to worry about making meals or cleaning his living space. Staff are wonderful and go above and beyond to make their residents comfortable and safe. Campus is clean, beautiful location, very well maintained. Very happy he is here.

Beautiful facility and outstanding staff! We visited a relative here and could not believe what a great facility it was. My relative loves it, and could not stop raving about. We had dinner with him and then breakfast the next morning. Staff were great! The place was spotless clean, food was very good, compliments to the chef! I'm glad my relative likes it here and we can't wait to visit again!

The staff is excellent. I am very disappointed as is advertised as independent living and this is false as more than 50% of residents should be in assisted living or memory care. It is depressing and difficult to manage daily.
