Canterbury Tower Tampa

Aleida Richards

My dad was there a few years ago and the staff was awesome. We could not have been more satisfied with his care and he is not an easy person. He has since been injured again and we are disappointed that they do not have a bed available for him this time, I highly recommend Canterbury Towers!

This guy on the bike at midnight has to go. Our neighbor has called so many times it's nauseating. At this point we're contacting all the major news outlets to try and stop it. They won't do anything about it, a worker leaves there between 12 and 1am revving his motorcycle engine like a racecar, almost daily. We're also gathering legal opinions. Can't believe it's been happening for months and no one there will stop it.

Absolute nuisance to the neighborhood with a leadership team that couldn't care less about surrounding residents. Have called multiple times about a horrible employee, someone who like clockwork leaves the complex on their motorcycle almost every single night between 12am and 12:30am for (what we've noticed) at least the last 6 months. This outstanding citizen is courteous enough to either drive a Harley Davidson style gurgle machine, or most recently an amazingly wonderful high pitch sounding sport bike to work every day. The soothing sounds of this wonderful human revving the engine at midnight as it starts up like they're trying to warm a bike that's been outside all day in the North Pole, or even better the rumble of them ripping down what I believe is El Prado Blvd at horribly unsafe speeds under the moonlight is something we eagerly wait for every night. THE BEST PART is how every single solitary night that angel blesses us with the ability to see our newborn child one more time throughout the day as they jump out of their slumber to the peaceful tune of Harley...every...single...night. Other child having neighbors are experiencing this delightful occurrence as are some of the elderly (which is especially convenient for the war veteran with more health issues to list who is woken up nightly.....stay classy.... No doubt the VA would probably like to thank you) I'm sure it's also an amazing benefit of paying an exorbitant amount for your loved ones to stay at a place that comes with the perk of hearing that every night. They should add it to the advertising pamphlet. "Enjoy A Class accommodations complete with an orchestra of exhaust notes played by our personal composer every night at 1230am" I understand people need to get to work, totally get it. I'm not a crotchety old timer complaining, I'm a neighbor with a newborn, with neighbors who have young children and elderly who every night get woken by a sub-human who cares about no one but themselves...no one should behave the way this xxxx does. Revv that engine bro, yeah! Do 80 down residential streets bro, yeah!...I'm writing this at 1am after asking something be done multiple times, because you guessed it, was woken up to them tearing down the road again tonight. How hard is it to figure out who is leaving the complex, every single night like an animal. Not like a normal person, but revving engines when they start the bike like a teenager who just got their license, ripping down the road at incredible speeds at incredible volumes. Have a conversation with the person and hold them accountable, have someone verify the story one single night, take action. Myself and at least 2 other neighbors will be calling our local government and TPD starting tomorrow as well. Absolutely insane and embarrassing that now we have to bother our men and women on the force who have way more important things to deal with. I have contacts that will verify every time TPD comes out, I'll take whatever time that is wasted on this low life and once resolved, I will donate whatever the final cost is to Feeding Tampa Bay. Thank you Canterbury for your good deed and for helping feed the less fortunate!!! Here is an outline from the Tampa Bay Times regarding sound levels: "In downtown, Ybor City and the Channel District, noise above 85 decibels — about as loud as city traffic — would be banned between 6 p.m. and 3 a.m. Elsewhere in the city, the limit would be 60 decibels until 10 p.m. (55 after that), or would be noise that's unreasonably loud and raucous. And, yes, the ordinance includes more than a half dozen standards for determining what's loud and raucous. Along with including fines — $150 for a first offense, rising to $450 for the third and any subsequent offenses — the revised ordinance would allow for a property with two or more noise violations within six months to be referred to the Public Nuisance Abatement Board, which has the authority to impose additional sanctions." Can't wait to get the ball rolling, let's feed Tampa Bay!

I need to have a really good reason to write a positive review of any product or service and The Health Center at Canterbury Tower has given me several positive reasons. The amazing care and rehabilitation therapy provided to my 85yo mother, Leah Van Vollenhoven, has been nothing short of outstanding. From my initial meeting with the Clinical Liaison for Admissions, Susie Courtice, whom didn't waste any time getting over to the hospital to evaluate Mom, to every direct care professional I've come into contact with has been absolutely amazing and work incredibly well together as a team. The environment is nurturing and healing. Mom feels comfortable, safe, and although she has a long way to go, has made significant progress. I can walk out knowing Mom is well cared for and treated with respect. It's rare to find a place where all LPNs, RNs, Physical Therapists and CNAs, in addition to the Social Worker and Director of Nursing recognize the value of older patients and take time with them individually to meet their medical and personal care needs. There is no job more demanding and stressful than essentially being the full-time caregiver responsible for all aspects of patients' individual treatment requirements. You all do it well and good food too! Thank you for all you do!
