My friend is currently at The Edgewood Centre. One thing about them is they seem to be just really busy. I think they may be a little understaffed. It's an older facility. My friend is in a shared room that's very cramped. There's not enough room for anything. There's a shared bathroom with another room that has another two people there and the bathroom has no shower. They have shower facilities, but you have to go somewhere else I've seen many lunch meals that my friend gets with me (it&ap…

My mom was at Edgewood for rehab and the plan was to move her to long term care. She arrived at the center with mild dementia and unable to walk without assistance. The Rehab Director and Rehab Staff were excellent. In the short time she was there, she progressed to being able to walk with a walker with minimal cues. However, the majority of the nursing staff/caregivers were a disappointment and at times negligent. My mom tested positive for Covid and put in a private room with the door shut. My moms Dementia had w…

The family is very happy with the care that my uncle is getting at The Edgewood. Right now, he’s in the Dementia/Alzheimer’s Unit. The staff is nice. He’s been in there for several months now. They do special things for military, and they have crafts, cards, and go on outings, but my uncle has Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, so he doesn’t use the activities area.

I am/was a resident of this facility

My experience with Edgewood was very bad. They gave me medication that made me psychotic. It was clean and well-kept, there was a good staff, and the food was excellent.

I appreciate the quality of care. It is wonderful and that includes everybody: the owner, director, receptionist, nurses, physical therapist, OT, speech, the head nurses, the LPNs, and the cleaning people. The food is wonderful. They have a lot of activities. They have a sweethearts lunch for valentines. They are also going to have a chocolate festival. They have things for everyone.

Although my loved one has not made the transition yet, Edgewood Centre is the community that we have chosen to move him to. We toured quite a few of the advanced care facilities in the area, and we really liked what we saw here! They provide a very high level of care without feeling "institutional", the community has a very warm, family feel. The employees obviously genuinely care about their residents here, it isn't just a job to them.
