What this means for your family

While the facility is physically beautiful and offers strong rehabilitation services, there is a recurring pattern of neglect regarding basic needs and slow response times to call lights. If you choose this facility, ensure you have a plan for frequent family visits to monitor care and advocate for your loved one's needs, as staffing levels appear inconsistent.

The Avenue at Aurora presents a stark contrast between its modern, hotel-like physical environment and the quality of care provided.

Potential residents and their families should be aware that experiences appear highly inconsistent, with some praising the facility as excellent while others describe life-threatening lapses in medical oversight.

Questions for Your Tour

  • 1Given that some families have expressed concerns about the timeliness of staff responses, could you walk me through the protocol for how call lights are monitored and prioritized during different shifts?
  • 2I noticed the facility has a modern, hotel-like feel; how do you ensure that the high standard of the physical environment is matched by consistent daily hygiene and personal care for residents?
  • 3Communication is very important to our family; what is your standard process for keeping family members updated on changes in a resident's medical status or health condition?
  • 4With your therapy team being a noted strength, how do you integrate their work with the nursing staff to ensure residents stay hydrated and mobile throughout the day?
  • 5How does your nursing team manage medication administration and oversight to ensure that potential health issues, like infections or changes in condition, are caught and addressed early?
  • 6What does a typical day look like for residents in terms of social interaction and dining, and how do you encourage participation for those who might be more reserved?

Key Review Excerpts

My father was a resident from 11/2015 until he passed away on 5/27/19. The care and compassion from the staff is exceptional. There is no such thing as perfection, however, this facility and the people employed there are as close as it can get.

Long-term resident's family · 2019★★★★★

My mom had fall risk and no bed alarms.. she fell 12 times!! They had a mat next to her bed that was removed every time we went to see her then they they would put it down just while we were there. Finally she fell broke her knee, sent to hospital came back to avenue.. fell again then had to have surgery!!

Long-term resident's family · 2022☆☆☆☆
