Homey, comfortable place.

Since this is a smaller facility, the staff to resident ratio is better than at the larger facilities. They are more available to the family and the residents. My mom was in the memory care unit. She passed away on [date removed]. There were very few structured activities for the memory unit. It appeared there was much more on the nursing home side. The majority of the nurses aids are wonderful and caring. The food is home cooked and delicious. The facility needs some improvements, especially to the grounds. Housekeeping could be improved.

Family Member Loves It

I have a family member that lives at Avonlea of Sterling and she loves it. Its very 'home-like', when having dinner (the food is amazing) it's like sitting at your kitchen table at home. When visiting all the staff says hello and are very friendly. They are attentive to the seniors that live there. The rooms are pretty nice and many things to do there. I am so happy she's there!

[Removed] was very welcoming and Avonlea Cottage was clean and inviting. I think that this is a top contender for my father.
