Overall Review of Simpson Place
differentiator3 reviews mention this
Pricing fits limited incomes
Pricing is described as affordable for people on limited incomes.
Several reviews describe Simpson Place as affordable, including comments about serving residents with limited income and being affordable for indigent families. That aligns with the listed private pricing being well below county and state benchmarks. Residents also mention paying out of pocket with supplements like Medicaid and insurance, and that meals and medication distribution are part of the day-to-day routine.

Staff availability is a major issue
Residents and families report long waits when they need help.
A recurring concern is that it can take a very long time to get a response, including reports of call buttons taking over two hours and staff not answering phones when families call. Other reviews describe delays in staff checking on residents and issues reaching the skilled nursing team by phone. At the same time, some reviews are very positive about staff being caring and attentive, so responsiveness seems inconsistent across experiences.

Dining quality gets mixed reviews
Dining is mentioned often, with both complaints and praise.

Other residents and families say meals are good, soups seem homemade, and the dietary team pays attention to food allergies and special diets.
