Mom Needed Extra Care
Well my Mom is experiencing a form of alzheimer. I think she is not capable of living independently without some assistance. Greatlakes, the firm handling the kitchen and other health care on the premises, is great and helpful.

Park at Franklin review
I wouldn't refer anyone there; they had a horrible bed bug infestation and it took them forever to get the right type of exterminators out to treat the problem!
Also, during the coldest part/week of the winter; the heat was out for a full week and all they said to the residents was they can buy space heaters for their apartments, they did not compensate them in any way for these major issues!!
They are the worse!!!
Please don't refer any other seniors to that place!!!!

Review for Park at Franklin
She was happy with the activities but this was not worth the cost and I would not recommend this place in a million years. It's not clean, trash in hallway and overflowing garbage in dumpsters all around the property, they have bed bugs in several units, staff is not friendly, she doesn't use care services and wouldn't use them if we had to.

This place has many pros
I like it I think it’s a good community. There are many pros here, and only one con that I can even see there are libraries and classes trips and Theatre the office has treated me kindly I like it my only con is the laundry room. They don’t have enough of them. They are too far away and they are not working properly. I didn’t know that when I came had I known, I probably would’ve made a different decision because the laundry facilities was number one on my list of things I had to have in order to move somewhere. I would not have moved here. Had I known the laundry were so bad they are not enough of them and if you go to the B building. There’s not even one over there at all and only one in every area, only 2 in the whole building For everyone and they don’t work properly they take your money. It’s too bad because other than that it’s a great place. Had I known what the facilities was it would’ve been a dealbreaker. I really hope they correct that if they do it would be good.

While Not Perfect, Overall a Nice Place to Live
The building residents are very friendly. There are some building connectivity issues with the internet. The buildings front office provides easy access to residents for food delivery, and other service providers during business hours. I liked the fact that the utilities are included although the thermostat just allows you to adjust the heat from high to low, to off. There is no temperature control for heat or A/C.. This is still a big savings. The location of building was central. The maintenance team has been very prompt in responding to concerns when the complaint is filed online.

Review for Park at Franklin
The staff and the atmosphere were welcoming. The 1st floor was enticing. Nails & hairdresser in residence. Food services in-house with payment. I would tell a friend to do more research. Security is very important, and none is provided. These apartments are very pricey.

Friendly supportive staff
When it comes to the meals and medication, they were often late due to the staffing shortages. The people in assisted care however respond to requests quickly for most of the time. Based on our experience so far we would recommend the Park at Franklin community to other families.

Don’t do it
They were very friendly when moving in . Once the lease was signed, never could get anyone to answer the phones. My loved one was in assisted living. Had to go to hospital. When she was returned there was no one there to let her in. She had to go back to the hospital. Until the next morning. I live out of town, and couldn’t bring her back. Once we weren’t happy had to jump through hoops to get out of the lease. Have to get something from doctors stating she can not be alone, which she was in assisted living which made no sense.
Hopefully the new management team will do better

Love this place!
Per all my ratings above, this is a great place. I visited four different places and just kept coming back to Park at Franklin. I I liked the brightness and friendliness of the community, and I liked the ease of them showing me things and answering questions. That was very impressive to me. The apartments are very roomy, with lots of storage. My loved one has four big closets, when most places had one, maybe two. You get a lot of bang for your buck - they offer a lot for the price. I would highly recommend them!
