Our Mom moved to Truewood on a walker at age 98... she had her 99th and 100th birthdays there... the whole staff cared for her and loved her through those last 2 years of her life... she was a challenge at times and could make us laugh too but they loved her and stayed by our side with her the last few days until she passed away from a stroke at 100 yrs. and 7 mo... God Bless them for EVERY thing they did to care for her...

Carl is such a pleasure to work with!
September 2023
Becky, Carl and the entire staff are amazing!! I've never met such a group of warm, caring and genuine folks in my life.
August 2023
Making the choice to transition a loved one to an assisted living facility is challenging and a bit scary. Thanks to Carl Wallace, our contact at Truewood, we were put at ease from the very start and comfortable with the entire process. Truewood is welcoming, spotless, nicely appointed and lively! Needless to say, our mother was thriled with her new home. Thank you Carl, Becky, and all of the attentive and friendly staff for all of your help and guidance! Mack, Teri, Daryl and Donna Dryden
August 2023
Every staff member I’ve talked to is so sweet, caring, and filled with compassion.
July 2023
We looked at Truewood for my mother-in-law and were so impressed with the knowledge and kindness of Carl and other staff. She went to live with her daughter and never got to enjoy living at Truewood but, we are keeping them on the short list for us now!
May 2023
We needed to find a senior living facility for a family member. Timing was an issue for us since we live in another state. The management and other staff went above and beyond in their efforts to assure our family member would be able to move in quickly. They even helped us by donating a bed for her room so she would be comfortable on the first night, while we worked on relocating the rest of her belongings. She has settled in and is quite content. Great customer service!
April 2023
My father really enjoys living at Truewood in OS. The people (both residents and staff) are friendly and caring. He was recently hospitalized and couldn’t wait to get back. Thanks Truewood for making my dad feel so welcomed.

We recently placed a loved one there and have had nothing but positive experiences. All members to include management, nursing, cleaning, and dining facility staff have all been a pleasure to work with. Our family member is also pleased and enjoys the other residents. The facility was a perfect fit for our situation.

I am seeking a community that was smaller and not to overwhelming for my loved one. The tour was excellent, and staff very professional and interactive. They gave me all of the information that I needed. It is a great environment for my loved one.

I've personally witnessed the activities being conducted at The Gardens and have found them to exceptionally organized and well demonstrated. The residents have told me on more than one occasion how they love the activities and Activity Director. In particular, a holiday party was thrown for residents and their families-a massive turn out with live music, a large array of foods, fun projects, and upbeat attitudes. Would recommend this facility solely based on the activities alone!
November 2015
The Gardens took wonderful care of my grandparents. The service was great and had a very friendly staff! They definitely felt like they were at their home away from home!
September 2015
My family and I have enjoyed visiting Mother at the Gardens and getting acquainted with all of the staff and administration. We have had a wonderful experience and my Mom has made many friends. The care and attention that she receives is assuring and we always feel welcome.

Made us feel welcome from the first day. Entry process was easy, everything was explained and I was assured they could answer any questions any time. Administration and Staff were exceptional and easily accessible. I feel comfortable having my wife at this facility.
August 2015
My dad has been living at The Gardens for over two years. I have felt so safe with him there. The staff is very personable and caring. They have been extremely patient with him when he isn't so pleasant to deal with. They are very good at keeping in contact with the family, and having activities to include us.
August 2015
Wonderful atmosphere. Very clean. Kind and caring staff that goes the extra mile to make sure its residents needs are fully being met.
August 2015
The staff is wonderful. Jody Stoddard, the Executive Director, goes above and beyond to make sure residents get the care and attention they need. And they are "Johnny on the spot" should a medical need arise as the hospital is just across the street.
