My mom was recently transferred to Your Life Memory Care. We could not be more pleased with our experience so far. The staff is very welcoming and attentive. I was put at ease and knew immediately my mom would be well taken care of. The environment is very warm and inviting. I am also happy with the communication between staff and family.
The facility is beautiful when you walk into the lobby but, once you get past those double doors, it’s roaches, crumbs and trash from meals and it smells like pure urine and feces. I understand that there are multiple residents that may experience some incontinence but the smell has gotten out of control and it makes it hard to actually sit and enjoy time with loved ones. The caregivers are extremely overworked and severely underpaid and it’s very sad because they are the ones keeping this facility running, not the nurses, not the unfriendly director, Kimber, etc, those caregivers are doing…

The caregivers are extremely overworked and severely underpaid and it’s very sad because they are the ones keeping this facility running, not the nurses, not the unfriendly director, Kimber, etc, those caregivers are doing their thing and deserve more respect and pay than they get. I noticed during my visit that multiple female caregivers complained about a male resident sexually harassing them and nothing being done about it but they would be forced to continue to give care to this resident, instead of sending a man in to do it. This is negligence and disrespectful. This place does not protect their employees, they just want them to come work for them, do what they say & shut up. I can see this place having a lawsuit on their hands very soon.
It's always a challenge when you reach the point that you can no longer take care of a loved one. Fortunately there are several excellent facilities for long-term care in Tallahassee, but one really stood out to us. YourLife is top quality with every amenity you could want. But what makes YourLife really special are its people. It's a process to move but it was made much easier with the assistance of Lacey Brown, Community Relations Manager. She walked us through everything and arranged for resources we didn't even know were available. The entire staff are outstanding and we know our loved…

Thank you YourLife.
We walked into YourLife with many questions, concerns, and what ifs for our family member who needed a place to call home. The office director, Lacey Brown, gave a detailed tour, introduced us to staff, and had a genuine response and understanding to every question we threw at her. The property is clean, and the rooms & bathrooms are spacious. The large courtyard is beautifully manicured with plants, a water feature, and has stations with fresh produce. There’s plenty of rocking chairs under the shaded patio for residents to enjoy the view and some fresh air. The list of activities and outings are plentiful and well thought out. Needless to say, we are thankful our loved one has a safe, happy, and beautiful place to start this next chapter. Give YourLife a call, you won’t regret it. Thank you, Lacey & YourLife staff!
What a beautiful facility! . The new Director and new management staff are extremely motivated to provided a great experience. They have Ears that are always willing to listen!
A wonderful community with the best staff!
I have a dear friend at this facility. My friend developed sores on her buttock area because the staff were not moving her every two hours and allowing her to remain in a urine soaked diaper too long. We have placed labels with her name on her clothing and bedding and it still gets lost. Her items are trickled back into room. He laundry basket was lost for several days and she is always missing socks. Also I have gone there when I have observed her floor needing to be swept. During the 4th of July they served hamburgers and hotdogs. The hotdogs were barely warm and the hotdog buns were hard and cold, I know this because I was there and I tried one of the hotdogs. Also, this place seems to always be experiencing staff changes. For the amount of money they are paying to be there, you would think the residents could get better care. I had to meet my friend at her primary care appointment, she was driven there by YourLife driver. When she arrived her clothes were stained and dirty and she had made a complete mess with a chocolate pudding cup that they gave her. I know this work is not easy, but they could better.
The staff gets to know the resident and their family. I wish the price was more affordable but I am very happy with the care we are receiving.
