    My mom has been a resident of Tennyson, now The Sonnet, for four years. The current administration and staff is beyond compare. My mom came as a resident to the assisted living floor. She was moved to Memory Care just over a year ago. She is now in her final days/hours of life. She has been treated with dignity, care, and kindness during this difficult time, as have I as I have been keeping vigile by her side. I see the more able residents engaged in activity, discussion, and see the true sense of community the current staff of The Sonnet have worked so hard to create. I wish my mom was able to be a part of this great place. I highly recommend having a loved family member call this home. All staff, from the top down, have made this time comforting for us.

    Tennyson Senior Living has always been a really nice facility with great communal spaces, beautiful views and new modern accommodations. Under the new current management there are some really caring and exceptional people. Here are three that I have interfaced with personally that provide excellent care of my parents:

    I have two parents living at Tennyson Senior Living Community, one for 4.5 years and the other for two years. Industry wise staffing is an issue for resident assistants. Tennyson offers incentives to their staff to maintain a workforce. I do worry about burnout of the staff. The housecleaner on second floor is kind and does an outstanding job. The executive director and activity director are top notch in keeping seniors stimulated (bus trips to local stores) etc. The facility has so much potential. They celebrate birthdays, holiday events, bring in musicians and engage with residents. Communications are good and the internal leadership staff are approachable and work through difficult issues. The current nurse is dedicated and well liked by families, staff and the residents.
