Positive

Our family had an in person tour and even though we were only there for an hour or so, the owner, medical director and staff were all very helpful. The owner, medical director, and staff members on hand were all very helpful and positive about our family members suitability. The care appeared that it would be good during the visit. The meals sounded like it would be good and they would be able to provide for any special needs. The activities sounded like they would keep him busy with a variety of activities. The va…

Not Pleased

My loved one lost weight during the time my loved one was here. The staff were friendly. Other that the direct caregivers my loved one worker with I wasn't pleased with the management. The community charged a community fee. The contract was changed on me after reading the initial contract, and then readjusted it after complaints. The staff would not allow me full access to see my loved one. The caregivers were overworked and seemed short of staff in the community.

I love them!

April Bloom has been a very good community so far for our loved one, she is absolutely getting the one on one care she needs. They workers are so personnel and are like family. With our loved ones health condition she is receiving better and more medical care and physical therapy there than at her previous medical rehab center. We have no complaints at all.

My stay has been tremendous!

My 2 month stay at April Bloom has been just what is needed during my recovery from damaged nerves due to an arm injury. My stay was from May through June and I was able to relax and forget my cares while sitting on the front or back patio on the acre and a half property. Plenty of large shade trees and and wildlife. ?? Staff is kind, caring and attentive to all of your needs. You're not a resident here but you are family. [Name removed] will cater to all your culinary needs and if you're lucky maybe she'll fix …

Arrived [date removed] to an empty and extremely dirty facility. Contact persons claim it is under renovation and would be finished within two weeks - which would be outright impossible. Would give 0 stars if it were an option.
