Not Worth the Money or the Visit

I toured Lorien Harmony Hall with [name removed]while looking for a place for my mother, and the experience was disappointing from the start. [name removed] demeanor felt rehearsed and insincere, like she was reading from a script rather than genuinely trying to help. The entire tour felt transactional, not personal. The apartments were underwhelming, especially for the price. A shared space starts around $[fee removed] before adding any healthcare services, and for over $[fee removed], my mother still wouldn’t have her own private bathroom which, by the way, wasn’t even clean during our visit. The lack of diversity in the community was also noticeable and concerning, especially for a family like ours that values inclusion and representation. Overall, this facility did not meet the standard of care, comfort, or respect we were looking for. We’ve decided to look elsewhere.

Good place for your love one

The nurses and the nurse practitioners are very responsive. They don’t have a problem answering any questions you may have. The food is fair. There are plenty of activities for your loved ones to get involved in. They go out to restaurants and shopping. My sister is getting very good care. I love her living arrangement her her little apartment is nice. The people are pleasant and polite. It’s a good place to put your loved one and not have to worry.

Great Staff!!

The staff at Harmony Hall are outstanding, and always appreciate their support! It's always a pleasure to visit, and equally enjoyable to see the smiles on the residents faces quite frequently. We are fortunate!!

Review for Lorien Harmony Hall

The staff at the facility are excellent they are all kind and caring. They stop and spend time with the residents whenever they have a chance and the interaction is great in all areas of staff. A good example is yesterday we were there and the head of maintenance was playing a game of chess with one if the residents. He said over the past few weeks they have played 11 games and the score was 6 games to 5. It doesn't seem to matter what jobs the staff has they take time to interact and I think that means a lot.

Lorien Harmony Hall review

The facility does not provide the same value aesthetically or for food choices for level 5 care patients on 3rd floor. The entire staff was awesome. When dad passed they sent a sympathy card with all signatures of those who interacted with my family. The facility also has a movie theater, which I felt was a plus too. The other nicety is that you can visit your loved one at anytime and spend the night if you choose to. Very caring staff overall...

Things to know

If you are bed ridden and need full time care this is not the place for you. You are better suited in a nursing home environment. However the PT staff in the beginning was outstanding. The nursing staff needs more FTEs as they are stretched way too thin. Food-should be served hot. Activities-just not inclusive like other facilities I've seen. Small participation in activities except bingo.

Not recommended

My loved one was previously a resident at Lorien Harmony Hall and the experience was not great. My loved one was not receiving any therapy and I was unhappy with her lack of progress. I ended up moving her to another facility. Based on the experience, I would never recommend Lorien Harmony Hall to others.

Above and beyond experience

Everyone we have worked with or come across have gone above and beyond to help and accommodate [name removed]. They have been extremely helpful in working with the family and trying to make [name removed] feel at ease. It is not an easy transition for anyone in that situation but I don't think you can find a better caring staff. The one drawback he knows of...the poor ladies at the front desk need those blinds installed they are being blinded when it's sunny.

Superior care , for resident and fsmily

This facility is a great care facility, from [name removed] helping us with a difficult decision, to nursing care and [name removed] to help our mother feel comfortable and mingle with others. Take action for your love one, and having them enjoy this great facility.

Great Care in a Beautiful Facility

I am very impressed with Harmony Hall. My husband is getting great care. The quality of food is so much higher than his last place. His social life is so much better. Families have been taken into account with so many spaces to gather. A cafe and coffee shop makes it easy to stop by for short visits. There are lovely spaces that accommodate larger groups. The facility has adoctors who come in regularly, and a nurse practitioner is there 24 hours a day. My husband already had several specialists in the area, so Harmony Hall has a transport service for that. My youngest grandkids even went to a movie with my husband in the really nice in-house theater. There is beautiful green spaces are available, too, and a chapel. I am so relieved to have him in a place where he is treated as a whole human being, and not just a patient. My husband has had several life-threatening events in the past year and a half. These events, including at least two strokes, left him very disabled. He can't walk and only has use of one arm, but his mind is not bad. The facility has many levels of care, so he is basically getting the same nursing care as in a skilled nursing facility, but at the same time, has a small apartment, restaurant like food services, and many opportunities to meet people and to keep his mind active. A nice bonus is that the local college sends nursing students there for practical experience, so supervised young people are always happy and excited to help out.

Disorganized and understaffed

We’ve encountered so many problems in this place. Here are just a few: 1) food is awful. My mother, who is a vegetarian, asked for a vegetarian menu. The menu lists many meal options. Yet she has been served the same meal (over and over and over) - a dried out black bean burger. 2) some (not all) of the aides have been condensing and impatient with my mom, which is demoralizing to her and her family. 3) there is no written schedule for physical therapy or occupational therapy. It’s impossible to know when the PTs and OTs are going to show up. My mom has not had PT for 5 days straight and there is no excuse for that. 4) my mom did not receive a shower for 5 days straight and now only receives a shower 2 times per week. 6. When we push the button for an aide or a nurse, it usually takes at least 30 minutes or more for anyone to arrive. There are some caring, nice and sweet staff. For example, [name removed] has been kind and responsive. But overall, this place not good.

Lorien Harmony Hall Review

The staff was nice but sometimes inconsistent, meaning arre time at times but seemingly absent at others. On occasion I was not greeted at the nurses station although the attending caregiver was at the desk. The were several times the caregivers were slow to respond to my mom. Is give this facility a C rating.

My loved one is currently a resident at Lorien Harmony Hall and overall her experience at this facility so far has been okay. Some of the staff are amazing, others are not. Staffing seems to be the biggest issue, as all of the nurses and caregivers feel it. Therefore, so do the residents. The cleanliness of the facility is great. The meals are not good. The quality of care is good. Overall, I would recommend Lorien Harmony Hall to others.
