I have been here almost 7 years and have been very happy, the staff is friendly and helpful. They have seen that we got our flu and COVID, also the RSV shot, whenever they were due, so we didn't have to leave the building. There are activities and entertainment if you want to attend, we have a library to borrow books and puzzles to do. I have enjoyed my time here.

My mom has been in assisted living for about a year and we are so happy we made the choice to put her here. The staff is very friendly, caring, and often go above and beyond to meet my mom's needs. The leadership staff is very responsive with communication to address any questions, and have always responded when our family makes a request.

Our mother has been in Calvin's memory care unit for about 3 years. My brothers and I have no interest in moving her to another facility for one simple reason--the sincere love and attention she gets is amazing!

Non-profit that puts the residents first. An assisted living facility is about the staff and how they take care of the residents, not about maximizing profits. Would recommend Calvin to anyone.
