Thank you to a great pt/ot staff helping him get strong, & doing the stairs! The food is gourmet! Important since thats all they have to look forward too, he sent pictures of his meals! I have a feeling we will be back to go to the restaurant! A special thank you to admissions for getting him there; Beverly, Cindy & Breon, social services help Kimgrace & Nic. Thankyou to the patient nurses who put up with him Mo, Rachael, Zee. Friendly housekeeping staff Liz&Choin. But especially you can tell everyone enjoys working there, they come in & greet everyone with a smile! If you need rehab/ nursing care I highly recommend Freedom Village! Thank you for turning a difficult time into an easier sintuation. We felt like we were treated as family & made friends!

I write this hoping Freedom Village has improved their sense of humanity in their end of life wing since the mid 1990's, because if they haven't, you should steer clear of this retirement community. I came from the North to be with my mom at the end and it was literally a nightmare to experience. On her death bed, she was lined up with other dying patients in one long, large urine smelling room attended, at one point, by a nurse who treated her roughly and with anger when she was giving her a shot for pain. (I was not there for that episode which my mom related, but reported this person to the director of end of life care). Was anything done? I never heard. My mom should have died with dignity and should have experienced a peaceful end to her life. To this day, I shudder when I think about Freedom Village and what I saw there.

Have lived here for 5 years. After checking 17 CCRC`s in Fl., we selected FV because of the size of the rooms and the proximity to the beach. We find the people very friendly and helpful, plus they offer lots of things to do.

We have lived in FV for nearly eight years. We came to be with old friends who had moved here and then made many more great friends after arriving. Eight years and no regrets about the decision.
