I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My parents are currently at Aster Assisted Living of Marshfield, but I'm not happy with the care at all. They don't have adequate help and some of the staff that they have do not treat the elderly well. I've met some staff that I wouldn't give a dime for, but there are a couple of them that are excellent workers. Their room is like an apartment and that is very nice. They keep going through different chefs all the time, so the food varies. A lot of times, their food will be cold and it's no…

My mother in law is living at this facility. And some of the employees are great. The rooms are nice and spacious . The food is adequate and snacks available. But the main thing that made me rate this as a 3 star is the smell of the building. The main entry smells usually like dinner is cooking, which is fine. But the hallways continually smell like plug in air fresheners/ urine/ and bad diapers. It is a smell that sticks in your nose long after leaving the building. My MILs room doesn't smell unless we leave …

She's not happy with the food at Aster Assisted Living of Marshfield. She's got two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, and a kitchen. They have a dining area downstairs, it looks like a dining room, and it looks nice. They have two separate ones so they can keep people separated a little bit. In terms of value for the money, it's very expensive.

I visited this facility

Let me start by saying, do your research before putting a loved on in this facility. Upper management and owership is totally incapable of running this facility. That don't care about the residents all that want is their money. After touring the facility that was quickly learned after overhearing the way management talks about residents and employees. Learned that turnover in this facility is aweful. Once again is is all about the dollar to these people. No compassion for anyone. Talk to the residents and lear…

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My Mom and Dad sold their house and moved into Aster two months ago. My family expected this to be a difficult transition for them, but I have not seen them this happy and content in years! I visited recently and am so glad I did. The home is very clean, warm, homey, and beautifully decorated for Christmas. The staff is friendly and outgoing on their efforts to ensure that both residents and visitors are comfortable and have their needs met. Both of my parents have dietary restrictions that made shopping and meal p…

Disheartened

Very disappointed with the treatment my loved one received at this facility. When touring this retirement home I was excited for the person moving in. It had a homey feeling to it. Staff all seemed very friendly. Things went downhill fast after my loved one moved in. There was a wonderful activity director there at the time 3 weeks later he quit due to the management. Numerous employees have left since also due to the manager on staff. She in my opinion treats the seniors there like they are children. She doesn’t l…
