Testimonials

It’s impossible to find the right words to properly express our gratitude other than our heartfelt THANKS for caring for someone that we deeply loved.

June 21, 2023
Dear Sam:
On Saturday, June 17, 2023, our sister/niece returned to her Heavenly Home to be reunited with her father, mother, and other loved ones in God’s kingdom. She was so very loved by her family and friends and will be missed by all of us. However, we are comforted that she will be at peace surrounded by Love and Goodness.
During her last days on this earth, she was critically ill and she was aware that her time with us was limited. Nevertheless, she maintained a sense of optimism and humor. Her family attempted to provide an environment that ensured personal care, cleanliness, and a degree of cheerfulness. We were “Blessed” to find these qualities in the staff at Anthem Senior Manor.
We are particularly grateful to you and the members of your staff for all your efforts in providing Kristy with a comfortable and caring environment during her time at Anthem. You were always gracious to visiting family members, responsive to Kristy’s needs, and accomplished these tasks in a loving way. It’s impossible to find the right words to properly express our gratitude other than our heartfelt THANKS for caring for someone that we deeply loved.

Anthem Senior Homes sets a high standard for the industry.

Sam recently assisted us with a family that was looking to relocate their loved one from out of state. Their thoroughness and professionalism ensured a safe and seamless transition for the family. I’ve seen and worked with hundreds of care homes over the past few years and from my vantage point Anthem Senior Homes sets a high standard for the industry. For example, It’s rare to see a robust activities program in many residential care settings, but Anthem Senior Homes conducts them daily, even bringing in live music on a regular basis. The homes are beautiful and the staffing ratios are above industry standard which allows them to provide a high level of care with rapid response times when urgent needs arise. Sam, you are great to work with, thank you for all that you and your staff are doing for the families and their loved ones within your communities. I look forward to working with you again in the future.

Sam and the staff at Senior Sanctuary have been a godsend during one of most difficult in our lives. We are grateful for the care and compassion they have shown not only to our mom but our family as well as we navigate this new and challenging road.

When I talk to my Mom on the phone she brags about her new home.

I have written reviews before but, none as important as this one. My Mother is currently living at one of Sam’s homes. It was one of the hardest decisions our family has ever had to make. Not because we heard awful things about Sam’s homes, actually just the opposite. We tried to keep my Mother in her home after my Father/Grandpa had passed, with a 24 hour caregiver. My Mother became more confused, agitated, and extremely depressed. She also lost a significant amount of weight. We met with Sam, Tracy, Jordin, and Ernesto and instantly knew the only place we would ever want our Mother/Grandma to live was with them. It was heart breaking trying to explain to my Mom why she could no longer take care of herself. It took her a few weeks to adjust to her new, beautiful and loving home. She now she refers to the house as her home. She has also put a little weight on thanks to the delicious and healthy meals combined with a patient and loving environment. Each and every person in her new home has shown her so much love and kindness. Tracy takes her to workout at “her gym” 3 times per week, she helps Jordin & Ernesto prepare meals, set the table, goes grocery shopping and loves “working” in her beautiful yard & garden. ASL has given my Mom a purpose to live. We truly feel our Mom/ Grandma is there to live her life, not to die. There are no other facilities like ASL anywhere. Sam’s homes are nothing like nursing homes or memory care institutions. When I talk to my Mom on the phone she brags about her new home, laughs, is pleasant and always has “something” to do. Prior to moving in to her ASL home my Mom would sit home with nothing to do, she felt overwhelmed and could not even imagine a future without her husband. I am finally able to sleep through the night without waking up in a panic worrying about all the awful things that could be happening with or to my Mom. I will be forever grateful to Sam and the caring, compassionate people at my “Mom’s home”:)! Thank you! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart! ASL homes set the standard for how every loved one should be taken care of in their Golden Years:)

My siblings and I are eternally grateful for the help we received with our mom.

I cannot speak highly enough of the wonderful care that Sam and all the staff at Anthem Senior Living (ASL) provided to my mother. She was 79 years old and quite sick when she entered ASL. They cared for her as if she were their own mother. They were kind and compassionate. Our family rested easier knowing that our mother was receiving the highest quality of care. If I needed assisted living myself, I would hope my family would place me with ASL, as I cannot image there are other places that attend to their residents’ needs with the care and attentiveness that ASL showed to my mother. My siblings and I are eternally grateful for the help we received with our mom. We highly recommend ASL without reservation. If you have need for senior care for a loved one, you cannot go from with ASL.

Every day we are thankful for the skillful compassionate care our son receives.

Our son is 33 years old and was a mathematician before he developed a neuromuscular disease which left him partially paralyzed. Now he is a resident of Anthem Senior Living and every day we are thankful for the skillful compassionate care he receives at ASL. The staff are experienced, kind, and supportive. We now have peace of mind that he will be well cared for on a 24-hour basis. The group house is spacious with a peaceful back yard and the food we are told is exceptional. The owner Sam Ile is always available for experienced counsel and advise. We appreciate all that Sam and his talented staff have done and continue to do to support our family. We highly recommend ASL to help you care for your loved one in a compassionate, caring, and safe environment.

The love and care that she received by everyone at this beautiful house was beyond imagination.

My 93 year old mom moved here after a hospital and rehab following an injury. She was on a great deal of pain and could not get comfortable. The love and care that she received by everyone at this beautiful house was beyond imagination. Not only did they treat my Mom with kindness and love, us family members were treated equally as well. I felt very comfortable and at peace leaving her at night. I cannot express my gratitude especially to Stacy and Ella for being so kind and patient with her especially during the night, which was her worst time. Sam, Tracy and Carlos manage this incredible place with grace, empathy and professionalism.

They thought of everything to make seniors thrive.

Sam and his team were kind enough to give me a sneak peek of this place and I have to say I CANNOT WAIT for the launch of this beautiful home! Every detail of this place is carefully thought out and planned with so much love for Seniors. The beautiful and spacious private suites provide a sense of tranquility and comfort from floor to ceiling. The common areas are bright and open! The backyard and patios are absolutely beautiful, so welcoming and fun for families and friends who I’m certain won’t want to leave! They thought of everything to make seniors thrive in the comfort of this beautiful home. Just call ahead and ask for a private tour and even reserve a room in advance so you don’t miss out because this place will fill up very quickly!
