Kasie is awesome!!! Everyone should tour with her

I just moved into University Place independent Living for seniors. I think it was the best decision I have made since my husband past away in 2019. The staff is wonderful and can't seem to do enough to help with the move in. They are very nice and I believe they are completely genuine in everything they do. The other residents are just as nice and willing to help in any way they can to help to make the transition easy and to welcome you into the fold to make this your home. The food is great, I love my apartment and there is something to do everyday to enjoy and to inter act with everyone else. I never have to be lonely again. Sincerely, Shirley, Abilene, TX.

The staff have been amazing in helping our parents. They are always helpful when we call and ask for assistance. Which is helpful as myself and siblings all live out of state. Nice clean warm and welcoming.

My mother recently moved out of her apartment after 7 years. Before she left, bed bugs were brought into the facility. My mother had not traveled anywhere, had not spent the night out and did not bring them in. There were also bed bugs in 5 other apartments. The managers told my brother that they would treat the apartment, and she would not have to pay. They ended up having to heat treat the apartment. Low and behold, she was charged on her next bill for all the treatments, the heat treatment was over $1000. in total she paid $2000 for bedbugs that she did not bring in to UP, when we were told by the manager we would only have to pay to have her clothes cleaned. Then when she moved out after keeping her apartment very clean, she was charged another $1190 in cleaning fees for normal wear for a one bedroom apartment. I would have given 0 stars, but she did enjoy living there and most of the trouble was recent.

I am editing this a few years later. This is now, in my opinion, one of the prime options for Independant Living in Abilene. In fact, I now live here myself. The bumps in the road that I originally cited were all part of the transition of owners. The current owner is great, the staff are great and the residents really do have that feel of family.While they are good at what they do they are expensive. Less so than other places but still cost an arm and a leg to live there. Their new owners were not going to raise rates then turned around and did just that. You must pay the premium for meals even if you would rather prepare your own. Meals tend to be o.k. but high sodium canned veggies and lots of starches.

My mother actually lived at University Place about five years ago before she passed away. So it was logical for me at this point in my life looking for a place to live that I would look look there. I cannot tell you how welcome I was made to feel how friendly not only the staff, but the other residence were. I am one week away from actually moving in and I cannot wait. If you were in the Abilene area and need an independent living home with friendly people, you really need to give University Place a look.

We researched all the Independent Living and Assisted Living Places in Abilene Tx. We excluded smaller options because we were looking for active social experiences with many people. There is no question that this is our choice. We are on the waiting list for the unit we want. My husband who is a pretty negative guy and not thrilled with moving toured with me on my 3rd tour. He could not say enough good things about the dining experience, feels like dining in a fine restaurant. Selections are good and you can eat as much as you want. Servers were terrific. Best of all residents are so friendly! Several came over to introduce themselves, encouraging the move, and inviting him to attend various men functions with them. The Director said they want it to feel like "family" and it does. While we were there a woman fell and the Director immediately excused herself from us to attend to the lady, calling EMS, running to get pillows for the lady to be more comfortable while waiting, and she sat on the floor holding the lady's hand until EMS arrived. She apologized for delaying us but she said that is just how they do it, the resident's safety and comfort are number one. MANY activities to choose from including sing-a-longs and Blue Grass concerts on Thursday nights. Can't wait until our unit becomes available!
