Review for Harbor Cove Memory Care
I mostly used Harbor Cove for respite care. In Jan 2024 contracted for full time. The RN who worked there left in the fall and had not been replaced when my husband passed. I had hospice go there after he started staying full time when I was out of town and could not go myself. During the time he was there they sold their business to Premier Care. I found the administration was difficult to work with because they would not follow through with issues that I presented to them. I would recommend the facility to someone that had attentive friends and family to depend only.

We moved him from NHC in Bluffton to Harbor Cove. The staff at Harbor Cove was very caring, which we did not experience at NHC. I wish we'd moved him to Harbor Cove earlier. It is a smaller place, but staff was fantastic with him.

I compared facilities in the area and although this one was more expensive I felt it was worth it. I would have no problems recommending to others. Reliable. Excellent choice for respite care. Residents seem to like it. It met my needs.

Harbor Cove Memory care was much smaller than the place we were before. And it suited us much better. The staff seemed like they really cared for my father-in-law, not just doing their job. Staff was very personable and qualified. Wish we would have taken him there sooner. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families.

Our loved one seems to be adjusting very well. We're on good terms with everyone there. They're very welcoming whenever we arrive. There's always someone we can speak to if we have any questions, and they always answer us promptly. Someone will call us on the day of occurrence if there's any incident with our loved one. And they have a lot of activities.

Our family had two main issues with the way Harbor Cove was ran - first they basically would bring all the residents into the main hall and plant them in front of the TV, and that was all they did. Secondly they had a couple of residents that had no business being there, they were mentally impaired, very loud, nasty and just disruptive. That had caused a lot of problems

This was definitely not the place for mom. Not only is the building disgusting but the executive director and the wellness director was also disgusting(RUDE). They have not had a housekeeper in months and the building shows it. The place smells of urine as soon as you come through the door. They are always short staffed with only 2 people to care for 25+plus residents. My moms laundry was always piled up or lost in the facility with another resident Wearing it when I come to visit. The visit is never peaceful there are always alarms going off and people yelling. One day I even saw a combative resident strike another resident and a worker that is when I decided to report my concerns to management they were ignored and i was brushed off. I do not recommend this place to anyone looking for a great SAFE place to put their love ones. When I did the tour I was fooled because they put on such a nice act. But I began to see the truth once visiting my mother on regular bases. Hope this helps.

Harbor Cove is a well run community with a staff that really cares for all the residents. The residents are kept active and appear to enjoy participating

A year and a half ago, we moved my mom to Village Cove. They made us feel welcome and I knew my mom was taken care of. Admin always knew what was going on. Recently, we moved mom to Harbor Cove. After problems with laundry and missing items, it seems better. I do think they need more care givers.

My mother has been a Harbor Cove resident for nearly ten months. Since the first day, she has been very well treated and is still very happy to be there. The Harbor Cove team exemplifies what outstanding, caring support should be.

My mom loves it there. She says that they treat her like a queen. I honestly believe they really do care about her and treat her with the utmost respect. Do they do things just like I would? No. But they offer so much more than I ever could.

Physical facilities are good. Costs are competitive. Manager and direct staff are good. Floor staff is average at best. Some are very good; some are extremely poor. Issues are lack of communication between floor staff and management, and visitor support. We have waiting 10 minutes for floor staff to let us into the building.

Based on my virtual tour, everything looked okay here. My one concern was how much the executive director had on her plate. She seemed to be very dedicated and loyal. She was very patient, engaging, and knowledgeable. And she answered all of my questions. But she did so many things, what would happen if she weren’t there? That seemed like a lot for one person to manage. When I addressed that with her, she said she felt good about that, because to her that means quality control. She can observe everything and handle anything that comes up accordingly.

This community is for more advanced stages of memory care. The Communication between the staff and the family was very good but mostly done with emails and texts and there was a disconnect between the spouse due to the technology. I would like to see a better way for communication for folks who are technically safe. I would recommend this community to others.

Everything is fine. They do a lot to keep her engaged, and social. It is really good. The layout and the resident to faculty ratio are the reasons we chose this community over others we saw.

So far, I don't have any complaints. There is a fantastic activities director. They do all kinds of games. They have a lot of crafts, singing, dancing, people who volunteer from the area. A woman comes in and plays and instrument, like a guitar but it's not. And they do all old songs that the people know. When it's somebody's birthday they have entertainment and singing and dancing. Once a month they take them out to lunch and I go with them. The only thing I think they could improve on is I think they need more staff.
