Mother-in-law finds everything and more at Abbewood

My mother-in-law is very content at The Abbewood. She thinks the staff is very nice and they take care of her needs. The fact that there is a salon to get her hair done , makes her very happy , because it's been a long time since she's gotten her weekly do. In the evening she has said she gets a bit lonely and bored because most people go to their rooms , and there is rarely anyone to interact with. She has made new friends and does participate in some of the Daily/weekly activities. Honestly if I could afford it I wouldn't mind living there!

Inconsistencies in quality of patient care and relationships with family members

Many of the staff were fine. Some were rude and inattentive however. Also, the quality and level of care in the mornings was lacking - nowhere near what we were told to expect. Not all of the nursing & aide staff seems to be adequately trained in handling patients in palliative / hospice care status. I should also add that a member of the senior leadership team was particularly uneducated regarding end of life care and actually disregarded (and went contrary to) the patient and family's wishes.

The staff at The Abbewood are very kind and friendly. They know their residents and look out for them. If anything comes up that concerns them about my mom, they call or text me. The food is very good. I've eaten there several times plus they have "family dinners" every so often which are very nice. It gives us caregivers a chance to meet other residents and their caregivers. I would highly recommend The Abbewood to anyone looking for a place for their loved one. [Names removed] are both wonderful and so very helpful with anything you need.

The Perfect Choice for Our loved one

I gave a 5 because each time I talk to our resident , she tells me a different story about how well she is treated . Whether it is the new activity that she was involved in , like I would've never imagined her playing corn hole ! She talks about how delicious and satisfying the meals are . The cleaners that come on a regular basis to vacuum, clean the bathroom, and help her by washing her bedding and putting it back on. She commented on how nice the man that drives her to appointments is to her and how he always speaks when he sees her. She says if there is any problems with her room the staff addresses them right away , or refers the problem to maintenance. Every staff member that she interacts with is constantly making sure that she is well taken care of. Over all I'm sure that she is happy that this was the facility that she chose because of the reasonable rate per month and all of the amenities provided. As she has told us , she wishes that she had come there after her husband passed away 11 years ago instead of going to an apartment of her own

I would recommend it

The staff members are very nice and the community itself is very clean, however, our loved ones room could use some improvement with the housekeeping. We understand that lacks a little due to the staffing issues but we have to do a lot of our own cleaning, dusting and changing sheets.

Comfortable peace of mind

They are very helpful at this community and do everything that they can to meet the needs of my loved one. They have activities like work outs, book clubs, religious services and more for the residents to do. They have afternoon movies, bingo and more but my loved one has not taken advantage of anything just yet. They have about six activities a day. This is a secure and cozy place and it is worth it.

Too Brief

The community did as much as they could for my loved one. My loved one was moved into the community from a rehab community, this community evaluated my loved one as assisted living. The stay for my loved one was short. The community was able to work with hospice. They did take very good care of my loved one during the stay.

Good Place for Senior Socialization

This is a nice place. This is a great place if you are able to participate in the activities available. The food is like a fancy dining room. They put a lot of effort in to the food. It seems more like fine dining in some aspects.

Good experience so far

We chose The Abbewood because of the location of the facility itself. The staff members could use some improvement on their communication to families. He loves the food they are chef prepared meals. It has been hard because of the times, he went in right in the middle of covid and I haven't seen him much. But overall I would recommend to others looking.
