BROOKDALE CITRUS

My mom was a resident at the Reserve at Citrus for the last 18 months of her life. We chose this residence because it was a family-like environment and the facility was easy to navigate for my mom. Everything is on one floor and easy to find. I have been volunteering as a Zumba instructor for the past 4 years. The facility has gone through many changes but I think the changes in the leadership of the facility have been very positive. The staff has been consistent at the facility for years and they are very special people. The activity director, food service director and the and memory ward director could not be more loving and caring. The aides, nurses and staff are wonderful. The leadership team has made the facility much more customer centric than in the past. This phase of life can be a big challenge for residents and if I had to choose a place for my mom again, I would not hesitate to choose the Reserve at Citrus.

Our sister Donna is very happy there it took her some time to adjust. The reserve does alot of good things for there residents.

I can’t say enough good things about The Reserve at Citrus. They took excellent care of my father and he loved being there. The staff is warm and welcoming and the facility neat and always clean. The food is fabulous too! I would encourage anyone needing their type of service to check them out.

My brother, Patrick, was a resident at The Reserve at Citrus Springs. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

.We lost Dad 20 years ago this coming February. Mom was able to keep up with our family home and lived a very independent life as a widow. Going to church every Sunday, luncheons with friends, visits with her grandchildren and welcoming all our her great grandchildren. But as time when on she started to get lost when out driving and her memory started to wane. We tried for 6 years to keep her independent in her home. This become a daunting task and her life became lonely as her dementia progressed. Even as a nurse myself, I was in over my head trying to balance her needs with my families. We lasted 6 years. She had 6 years in her home she loved but the time came to find a place for her and people to take care of her beyond how my husband, brother and I could provide. We were moving to Florida permanently and had to bring mom from NY to Florida. It was a daunting task but the facilities we found in Florida were by far a better choice for Mom and Us. We walked into the Reserve at Citrus and never looked back. It had a warm family like atmosphere that fit moms down to earth way of living. Kindness and Patience and Love are just a few of the words I’d use to describe the staff at the Reserve at Citrus in Lecanto. Mom’s adjustment was rough, but they never gave up. They helped us understand how to navigate and process the emotions that mom was going through and we were going through. Everyone’s needs are different. The reserve at Citrus fit all of ours. I’d fully recommend the Reserve and support all their staff. They are truly angels. I thank them for all they do. Sincerely Nancy Susi and all our family
