Golden Grace Assisted Living & Adult Day Activity Reviews
A Lifesaver for Me and a Wonderful Place for My Mom I can't express enough how grateful I am for this incredible Senior Adult Day Activity Center! My 95-year-old mother has been attending for a while now, and it has truly been a game-changer for her well-being and myself. The staff are incredibly caring, attentive, and always go above and beyond to create a warm, welcoming environment. The activities are thoughtfully designed to engage seniors both mentally and physically, and my mom always looks forward to each day. From gentle exercise classes to arts and crafts, the variety keeps her stimulated and happy. She enjoys the social interactions with the staff and her peers. What really sets this center apart is the personal touch. The team takes the time to understand each individual’s needs and preferences, ensuring that every participant feels valued and included. It’s clear that they treat every senior with the utmost respect and care. Knowing my mom is in such capable and compassionate hands while I am work gives me such a piece of mind. If you’re looking for a safe, supportive, and enriching place for a loved one, I highly recommend this center!
From the entrance to the exit it smelled and looked wonderful. Staff was attentive to residents.A few Residents were in the chapel singing,while others were on board games. I look forward to being chosen as a volunteer in the near future.
It's really great to have a place in McKinney that can provide both adult day care and assisted living care in the same facility. Everyone from the owners to the employees care deeply about those that attend!
they are very good with my moms care and welfare.they are the best
My mother has been cared for at Golden Grace for a year and 1/2 now. I honestly have zero concerns or complaints. The facility is well staffed with caring people who truly make this a loving place to be. Golden Grace is kept very clean and comfortable with activities the residents enjoy.
