Positive

I was impressed with the woman who gave me the tour. She knew each resident by name and their condition. Most impressing was her making physical contact with all the residents by patting them on the shoulder, holding or shaking their hands.

The person I met with was friendly, engaging and knowledgeable about facility and area. However, the facility itself is small, lacks in amenities I am looking for. It also needs a refresh as the facility itself is decorated in mauve and maroon. The residents seem content. Had lunch and the food was average. Will not be on my list to consider.

room for improvement.

The apartment is very big and has a lot of storage. One housekeeper takes of whole building of about 24 apartments and common areas. Therefore, some weekly cleanings are skipped. We have monthly food and Town Hall meetings where we give our input. The food is not very good or healthy but has improved. Maintenance has a hard job keeping up. We just got a new administrator so hope things get more organized. The elevator has been broken for 6 months so we do not have many activities. Residents on upper and lower floor…

The lobby is very inviting; it gives a very welcoming vibe. The staff and residents had positive interactions. It is encouraging that staff is familiar with the residents we passed throughout the tour. Dining room does not look institutionalized. Love the menu is posted in a large font. We had an appointment but didn’t have to sign in. Is there a way to know who comes in for resident safety and evacuation info in an emergency?
