We had an incredibly positive experience with Residence Despins during my grandma’s stay. From day one, Leigh Anne and her team set the standard for what supportive housing should be. The level of genuine care, attention, and respect they showed wasn’t just professional, it was deeply personal. My grandma was living with dementia, which obviously comes with its challenges, but despite that, she would consistently tell me how kind everyone was and how much she enjoyed being there. That alone says everything. What stood out most: Clear, consistent communication. I was always kept in the loop Warm, welcoming environment. I never felt like “just a visitor” Trust. I never once worried about her care I’m incredibly grateful to Leigh Anne and the entire team for the compassion they showed my grandma. They made a difficult chapter feel safe, comforting, and even joyful. Couldn’t recommend them more.

My mother was here for 9 yrs We were told there would be things to do No activities, very boring for the residents. Leah Anne never called us back or replied to any emails when we were inquiring about mom Depends on whose working whether bed is made or not, most times bed was not made More needs to be done for residents that live there and LeahAnne should reply back.
