What our family likes the most about the Proveer at Port City is the staff. They treat my mother very well and she gets a lot of attention. She has improved so much under their care.

Crowne Place in Mobile, AL

4.3
I would recommend but the food is not good enough for what we pay for. We picked this community, because of the ocation and availability. It is directly across from the hospital. Plus there are no assisted living in my area. Huge need for one here!

I would recommend them. I think they are understaffed right now that is causing some issues but I also think they are doing their best.
