I found this place for my dad. Unfortunately, my dad only got to stay in his studio apartment one night because the next day he had to be taken to the ER for low blood pressure and unfortunately he never returned. The entire staff through the entire process from the tour, speaking to the director, the front desk staff, the cleaners that I ran into the hallway, the nursing staff and assistants who just got to know my dad only for one day were amazing! They always asked how my dad was doing even though they barely got the chance to know him. I was really surprised every time I went in there just to get his mail or grab a thing or two for him, that someone would always ask me how he was doing. I'm certain my dad would have definitely loved being a resident there. I highly recommend considering this place for your loved one. Thank you very much to the staff at the Summit! The Johnson Family
This place is great because the staff are polite and they let us in so I can visit my grandpa.
From the first time we walked in, I knew this was the place for our Mom. It is a beautiful facility. We told our Mom, it was like living on a cruise ship! The staff are lovely. Very friendly, helpful, attentive and caring. It was the right place for her final years. We highly recommend the Summit of Lakewood Ranch.
The staff was very caring, attentive, compassionate, loving, and helpful. From the office staff, to the wellness director, to the entertainment staff, the maintenance staff, the nurses and aids and even the concierge. They welcomed her in and they were all very kind and loving to my Mom during her stay there for 16 months.
Summit is an amazing facility and has an awesome staff. It starts at the top with Hope! She is so compassionate and loves her residents. The staff is so friendly and everyone I’ve seen is so happy.
Wonderful place full of wonderful, caring people. I am so grateful for the care my mom continues to get in every way.
I have been visiting this beautiful and immaculate property for almost 3 years with my family. I moved my uncle in under prior ownership, and my father was there under current ownership. What an amazing team of people! Hope is absolutely THE BEST Executive Director! Brandee, Cindy, Diane, Kiera, Fred, and ALL the caregivers are kind, compassionate, and patient. They understand the needs of the resident and of the family members. I consider this the "Taj Mahal" of memory care in our area. You can't go wrong trusting this amazing group of people with your loved one. Highly recommend.
Diane and her staff have been Fantastic, from helping me in setting up my Sister's Netflix to making a special trip to bring her a juice while doing it. As well as overall being extremely kind to her. Now they are helping to encourage my Sister to be walking more. I couldn't ask for a better facility. Diane, her Staff and including Elizabeth in Physical Therapy, are all seriously Second to NONE! 100% Thank you!
My grandmother moved in to the Summit (formerly the Sheridan) in July 2022. She lived there until her passing in March 2024 at age 94. It was her third ALF since her stroke in 2016, and it was by far the best. I live about five minutes away and so I was there often. I was able to see first-hand the attention and care she received from all of the staff. From the CNAs to the nurses to the maintenance and cleaning personnel, I always felt they had her best interests at heart. They have several integrated doctors and PT/OT (though you can keep your own) and because of that they were able to catch a few issues my grandmother was having long before they became critical. There are some things you can tell from a tour - the activities, the physical amenities, maybe even the food. But what you cannot tell, and what matters most, are the people who work there. I'll be forever thankful of the care my grandmother received; it was very much the kind of care I'd hope to receive myself in her place.
We were so blessed to be part of the Summit of Lakewood Ranch Family for the past 6 months! My mother, and my family, were treated with such respect and dignity. I am forever thankful to Doug, greeters Chris and Charlie, not to mention Keara and Regina in the Memory Care Unit. Thanks all! You will always be family to us. Peter M.
