Overall a Very Good Home

We are grateful to have found this home for my husband's aunt. Overall she is happy there and thinks of it as her home. The challenges have been with the staff or lack of staff to deal with [name removed] difficulties with sleeping at night and keeping her awake during the day. Occasionally there are challenges with communication due to language issues, but we generally manage to work through these. Maybe a little harder for [name removed] with the staff not speaking much English and her hearing difficulties combined. Again somehow they all seem to manage. I would still be willing to recommend the board and care as a good place that others should consider.

Lovely Board and Care Home.

We are very pleased with the care they provide to my husband's aunt. The staff is very kind, food is plentiful and well prepared, home is extremely clean. I do believe they have rooms available and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a board and care home.

Friendly Staff

We picked this community because of the the price, and we got a good deal on a shared bedroom. The activies could be improved. They need to add more social activites, such as outings and more people coming in to entertain the residents. It is spotless, the food is great, and they put effort on giving them lots eat. I would recommend to other families.

I toured this community and it wasn't bad. It was clean and staff friendly. It just didn't feel as comfortable or like home, felt more like a facility.

Good

It is a very friendly place. I really do love it. It just like you are at home. My mother stays in bed and doesn't do any of the activities.

Seems to be Working

I haven't really seen too many activities at this point and I understand why. They just got a 6th patient and before that they only had three so it may have been a little cost prohibitive for them. It's only two streets away from my house so I can run over any time. I think they probably could use maybe some stronger staff. I think she hired a guy who's stronger and big. It's a matter of adjusting for both the patients and the staff. My parents say they're getting their meals. The lady who cooks actually asked me for some recipes because she wants to try cooking Indian food for them. They are very accommodating from that stand point. It seems to be working right now.
