What this means for your family

This facility offers a highly regarded residential-style environment that many families find more attentive than larger institutions. However, because a recent reviewer reported a significant drop in care and professionalism following an ownership change, you should specifically ask about current staffing levels and how they manage resident assistance during meal times.

  • 3With such a high staff-to-resident ratio, how much one-on-one time does each resident get with the caregivers during mealtime and activities?
  • 4What does a typical afternoon look like here in terms of social activities or hobbies to keep the residents engaged with one another?
  • 5How is the communication handled between the staff and our family if there is a change in a resident's health or a medical emergency occurs overnight?
  • 6How has the care philosophy or the day-to-day management style evolved recently to ensure the professional atmosphere remains consistent for the residents?

Key Review Excerpts

Every staff member is professional, capable, attentive, patient and respectful toward all residents and they work well with each together.

Geropsychiatric Team Leader · 2026★★★★★

The care at Avendelle was noticeably different and much better than the care at the larger facility. Before coming to Avendelle, we were unfamiliar with the smaller residential style group home. But since our experience at there, we have recommended the smaller style to everyone we know.

Long-term resident's family · 2025★★★★★

Once it changed ownership, care went downhill. If a resident can't feed themselves the staff will barely assist.

Family member · 2025☆☆☆☆
