Collinwood

My mother in law enjoyed the staff and activities. The food was ok. I thought their meals were a little high in carbs and sugar for people with memory issues, but they did make clear that they did not provide a therapeutic diet so that was to be expected.

Our Family's Experience

The staff was ok. There were a few good ones but most never even said hi to me. They put all of the residents in a big room in front of the tv and they just wandered around aimlessly all day. I saw 2 activities the whole time [name removed] was there. Most of the time if there was an incident to report, the messages were weird and vague. There was definitely a language barrier. So much laundry was lost, including bedding. I had to ask for toilet paper to be replaced in her room and her room was never cleaned well. There was always dust in the corners and laundry was never put away correctly. When [name removed] was passing (a week long), it was the saddest. Only one employee checked on me and offered me a drink. They would come in and give her meds but never really interact with me or her. There were no creature comforts. The first time I saw her after being bedridden she was in a diaper, tank top, flimsy blanket that wasn't even hers and half falling out of the bed. Hospice was truly amazing during the process and did an excellent job (not a part of Collinwood). I always tell people that it was the cheapest option by far but you absolutely get what you pay for!!!!

Look Elsewhere!

Both of my Parent's were at Collinwood. My Dad in Memory Care, and my Mom in Assisted Living. I would NOT recommend Collinwood. I could literally write a book on the horrible experiences I went thru, as well as my Parent's. It was a long & awful journey for all of us. I need to mention that I could have had a few lawsuits against their Memory Care facility, and won. I could go on & on, but trust me...look elsewhere! Their staff is not trained to deal with the elderly or memory care patients. They basically hire anyone that applies, and the turn-over in employees coming & going is incredibly high! Some of them are just 20 year old kids. Do you want these people taking care of your loved one's?

Let me also mention that their turnover with Executive Directors, Assisted Living Directors AND Memory Care Directors was incredibly high over just a few years. I seen at least eight people come and go.

Good Experience Overall

The facility is older, but it is in decent shape. The grounds are spacious and well tended to. The care givers are attentive and treat the residents well. The staff has responded responsibly to the cases of covid outbreaks by following all expected protocols. It has overall been a good experience for our family.

Wonderful staff

The staff are some of the kindest people I have ever met. I wish there were more activities, especially in memory care, but I'm not sure any facility has great memory care activities. That's a huge challenge. but the staff is top-notch. And that's the most important thing.

Very good place

My mom is in the memory care unit. The staff is very helpful and attentive to those in memory care. We moved her to collinwood from another facility and I am glad we made the move. They are always helping the clients. The food has bigger portions so my mom isn't hungry all the time like she was in the other place. The rooms are bigger.

Mixed experience

The staff are friendly but they're not appropriately staffed. the staff is nice but I have come across many times mom either doesn't have her hearing side in, room was not clean after she had accident (most recent), when the staff are supposed to be checking in her and helping her get ready in the mornings...we came in the afternoon.

Nice facility!

We toured Collinwood Assisted Living and Memory Care when searching for an Assisted Living facility for our loved one. This facility was super nice! The staff/people were also nice. They had walk in showers, but there was a lip to step over.

nice community with areas of improvement

I feel there is not enough staff to monitor people as needed, example- my moms remote for her tv keeps getting lost and we have her name on it, staff cannot find, I know that can be challenging but would think staff goes in rooms often and could keep looking but do not believe they do. Also, several times when visited floors and tables in dining area dirty, I just think they need more staff.

Worse mistake of my life - Trusting Mother to Collinwood

The worst mistake of my life was entrusting Mother to the care of Director [name removed] at Collinwood. While the facility is nice enough to look at, a few of the seriously overworked employees are making near heroic efforts to take care of some of the residents, and apparently the director (Director [name removed]) is good at making her management happy (by making them as much money as possible, including spending as absolutely little as possible on the residents), when it came to giving residents like my mother an optimal quality of life, Directory [name removed] failed miserably. Mother deserved better than the treatment she got there. When I respectfully pointed out to Director Jacoby and her staff specific issues that should be addressed, e.g., cooking chicken so it was not raw, not having hair (human?) in food served to residents and their guests, allocating more than $1.67 per resident per meal (their numbers) (out of the thousands of dollars per month residents like my mother paid), OUT OF

Good location

I liked the location and the fact that after 24 months of self pay then when the resident runs out of money it then goes to Medicaid. I disliked the cleanliness of the rooms, lack of doing the laundry along with poor communication.

very attentive and kind staff

I've been very pleased with Collinwood, we are happy with them and so is my dad. I've been very impressed by the staff and their attentiveness and kindness. I like when they have different music programs that come in, they have several church services, and my dad enjoys some of the movies they play in the evening. they have done a pretty good job of communicating with our family, I'm pleased with that as well. I would recommend Collinwood to others.

tour of Collinwood

I toured Collinwood and thought it was great upon first impression. we chose another community because Collinwood did not have any immediate availability and did not fit into our budget.

Best of the best

I liked Collinwood from the moment I walked through the front door, with the large fireplace and comfy chairs and engaged folks chatting with one another as they waited for the activities bus to take them on an excursion. The staff is extremely attententive, kind and quick to serve. We especially want to thank [Removed] for making the choice easy for us and the transition smooth for my mom. We especially like the fact that mom has a wonderful Physician's Assistant in house along with P.T.

Questions on care

We toured this community. We liked the staff and thought about this community. We would have liked this community. This community was not able to return the calls we had on additional care. Families might want to speak with the staff more on what is available for the care of a loved one.

I had canceled my appointment with [removed] as first visited with MacKenzie Place and the questions were answered there and was given a book on Senior housing so felt I needed more time to process everything. I had visted Collinwood years back for my mother in law and it was a great place then so rating it based on that time.
