Of the 4 facilities mentioned, Freedom Pointe is the best, and the most expensive.
A relative of mine lives in Sumter Senior and YES, she has her own apartment! There are 7 care levels determined by points…every task they perform has a point/points assigned to it. When she first moved in to AL, she was paying LESS than IL because they had a DEAL on rent. After 3 1/2 years in AL, she has now caught up to her previous rent in Indepedent Living.
