Cypress Creek Assisted Living Residence

My husband has dementia and didn’t know I was his wife. He sat in the car hoping to find his wife. He went to Cypress Creek Memory Care on Dec 20,2024. He has adjusted to his life there and has excellent quality of life. The staff really cares about each person in a very loving way. They have many activities that they are encouraged to attend. I visit my husband every day with our dog. He is relaxed and happy and more involved in activities since he has been there. It is a difficult decision to make, but if he can’t be home with me, he is in the best place possible. I appreciate all the people at Cypress Creek who make his life so much better than it was.

When my mom had a stroke three years ago and would not be able to stay in her house, I visited eight Assisted Living facilities in Sun City Center, revisited three and made the RIGHT DECISION to place her in the CARING & BEAUTIFUL Cypress Creek Assisted Living where she continues to thrive into her late eighties. I visit almost everyday and am greeted by the aptly named JOY who is the pulse of Cypress keeping track of the many different needs and concerns of the residents and their loved ones. Most of the senior staff have been there for a very long time and do their best to create a home-like atmosphere bringing their lovable dogs to work and hiring the most caring aids who are trained to care for each of the neighborhoods grouped by need. Mom and I LOVE her “D” wing family and are happy that we can visit the members who moved down the hall because they needed more assistance. True friendships and love exist here. The energetic activities Director Maria and her staff keep a wide variety of creative exercise programs, Arts & Crafts, musical performances, games, birthday, and holiday celebrations and more. While my mom detests Bingo and the Balloon noodle games, she loves HAPPY HOUR and crafts. There is something for everyone! We love being invited to Family programs at Thanksgiving, St. Patrick’s Day and open houses connecting the many potential support programs available. This is a Faith Based community with no pressure to attend the many Catholic and non-denominational services which can bring comfort to many. Weekly JOYRIDES or field trips to a variety of restaurants, shopping and sightseeing trips are wonderful. All potential residents should visit Cypress’s Facebook page to see pictures of an engaged and happy group of seniors. Residents have some choice in what they are served for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Most love ice cream sundaes and appreciate that either soup or chili is served before dinner every day, which may be all they need. The nursing staff takes excellent care of mom who is on a variety of medications. I feel confident that they are keeping me informed and will take good care of her when I go out of town. I am happy to give Cypress Creek my highest recommendation.

I had been working with Laura for a few months with the hopes of moving my Mom & Dad to Cypress Creek. Our family experienced unbelievable tragedy over the past few months, and when my Dad passed unexpectedly, and I moved my Mom to FL, the staff at Cypress stepped up and helped with the transition. They actually picked my mom up and allowed her to spend the day at the facility so I could work, this was before we even officially signed! My Mom has now been living there for about a month, she is doing well adjusting, I visit her at least twice a week, she is well cared for, eats well, enjoys the daily activities and goes on weekly outings. I sleep well knowing my Mom is in good hands!

UPDATE Dec 2024.. I am so thankful for Cypress Creek MC as I made the mistake of bringing my mom home in late October as she was thriving at CC and I thought I could finally take care of her. I was so wrong.... I have never appreciated all that they do every day for ALL their residents. Under my care (along with 2 hired caregivers) my mom declines right back to where she was before she entered CC. She was not leaving her bed and her memory went down hill fast. Mom will be returning to CC thanks to the wonderful staff who take excellent care of her. My Mom thrives at CC and loves it. There is NO PLACE better for your loved one. I made a HUGE mistake bringing her home and I am so thankful she is going back and will be happy, healthy and active again surrounded by people who love her like family. Original post in Sept 2024 Cypress Creek sets the bar for assisted-living and memory care. You will not find a better facility anywhere. The staff are so wonderful to the residences and truly love them. They assess potential residents prior to moving in so you can be assured this will be the right facility and if it’s not, they will help you find the right facility. My mom (99) moved here from another facility where she was just staying in bed all day and declining. I promptly moved her as soon as a room opened and within three weeks of living at Cypress Creek she is thriving again. Mom is stronger physically. She’s sharper mentally because she’s engaged every day with activities and people who support her and love her. It was the hardest decision of my life, and also the best decision of my life

My mother moved into Cypress Creek back in February 2017, a couple months after my dad died. My mom has dementia and could no longer take care of herself. Cypress Creek is privately owned, so they're committed to the residents not shareholders. They provide excellent personal care for my mom, and as she her level of care has increased over the years, they have been able to make sure all her needs are met. Cypress Creek has been such a blessing for all of us. Thank all of you for everything.
