Help finding our way

If I think of it objectively, considering only Avalon House, I would rate the experience as a 5. (If I describe the overall experience, I would have to include the personal pain and unhappiness that each of us has experienced. It has helped in many ways to have the facility and staff to help each of us to cope.) I have found the staff to be warm and friendly, respectful and supportive. Their considerable experience is reflected in their kind and gentle approach to residents. At one point, my husband told me that

The Care for My Mom

My brother heard from a neighbor about Avalon, for my Mom was getting to be to much for me to care for. So after having a Great tour with [Name Removed], my siblings and I decided we would put into Avalon where she could get the care she needed. I have to say that [Names Removed] did a great job with not just mom, but the others tenants there to be looked after. It was very nice when I went to see Mom that everything was well taken care of. I really enjoyed the soccer talks with[Name Removed] for Mom was from Liver

Great Experience

I could not have been more pleased with the care my mom received at Avalon. She was always clean, and well groomed. My mom used to love to take long showers at home & they bathed her daily unlike many other facilities. Despite her dementia diagnosis, she seemed to make friends with the other residents and really connected with the caregivers who took such great care of her. They did a great job to make my mom feel special. From time to time, I would get sent photos of my mom playing Bingo which she loved.

Avalon is a good home for your loved one

I think the residents are well looked after - my husband is always clean, dressed and fed, but his teeth could use more frequent brushing. I have not seen any interaction between the caregivers and him. His teeth are not brushed frequently enough, and I wish the staff would keep me informed about my husband's condition. I think the residents are, generally, well looked after. The place is clean and doesn't smell like other homes like this one do. I would like more communication with the staff - that they call me

Avalon House Cawdor Court

We cannot express our complete joy and hippieness that our mother received at the Avalon House at Cawdor Court. Mom was there for over 5 years and the total care and attention including the staff's friendship for life was outstanding! Opal and Noel were with her all five years, and they kept our family at peace with their care and love for her. Keith, Rieta, Mark and Marianna.
