Chelsea Place Assisted Living

Upon her husband's passing, our Aunt, her relatives, and her dedicated caregivers all knew that a major move would become necessary. She and her husband were married and lived independently together for 72 years and this move would not come easily for her. Years ago we began looking around our area in south Sarasota County for possible places for the two to reside to better meet the needs of an elderly couple. But it was not until her husband passed that this became an urgent matter. On a whim, we continued our quest into Charlotte County and in the process found information on Chelsea Place. We decided to take an unannounced look at it and what we found upon pulling into the parking lot was a darling looking structure, happy music, laughter, and chatter filling the air, as well as the wonderful aroma of food being prepared. We went in and were welcomed, given a tour, and from that point on we believed we had found her new home. We made an appointment to take my Aunt there for a tour and lunch the next day and the rest is history. She was immediately greeted by the owner, the staff, and residents as we enjoyed our tasty lunch, and by the time the initial paperwork was completed, she had found 'her room' and was mentally planning where her things would go. That was late May, and she continues to love and thrive at Chelsea Place. She is frequently found mingling with the residents, and the very efficient staff is plentiful and constant. We could not be more grateful and relieved that Chelsea Place has so perfectly provided what was needed for her happiness, safety, and well-being as she gets on with the rest of her life!

Everyone went out of their way to make my mother in law feel welcome. Beginning with introducing themselves to her at the rehabilitation facility she was in before moving to Chelsea Place. The owner, administrator and RN all made a point of meeting and getting to know my mother in law before the life changing move.The facility is truly modeled after 'Retirement Resort Living' with a tasteful Key West theme. It is clean and well maintained. The intimate 12 resident size makes for a family atmosphere.The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The activities looked fun and the meals well prepared. We enjoyed a private dinner in my mother in laws room. We do not live near by and feel totally comfortable knowing she is lucky enough to be cared for by the lovely staff at Chelsea Place.

The most horrible place for a loved one. Food is terrible, management is the absolute worst and look elsewhere if you truly care about your loved one. Lots of excuses and dishonesty about services and care and the lack there of. Be very diligent and do your research. Wouldnt even give a one star.
