This place was awful. Smelled of urine. Promised room repairs never done. My father's hearing aid lost in 2 days and they took no responsibility even though he had been in memory care for 2 years previously without any problem. Overcharged when I thankfully got him out. Promised to refund the overcharge but then told me it was too "complicated". I am still waiting on the promised refund over 2 years later. Dad has been in 5 different memory care facilities due to my moves. All have been good, not per…

And the other issue is just that she is in with people with really advanced dementia, and it is really quite hard for her, like she came out of the bathroom one day, and there was a man asleep on her bed. T…

My mom has been at The Hermitage for a week now. I'm a little disappointed with I have gotten for what we're paying for. It is a brand new facility that has just opened up within the last few years. I'm not very happy with the level of care. The facility is great. The people are very nice, too. My mom got a very bad cough last week, and it took me several phone calls and almost three days for her to finally get some medicine, so that concerns me when we talk about the fact that she is there to be tak…
