Questions for Your Tour

  • 1Since the facility is so cozy and intimate with 16 residents, how do you ensure each person gets personalized attention during daily care routines?
  • 2I noticed you take pride in keeping the environment well-maintained; could you walk me through your protocols for resident mobility and ensuring everyone is moved safely and comfortably in their wheelchairs?
  • 3What kind of engaging daily activities or social events do you have planned to keep the residents active and connected?
  • 4Could you clarify the level of medical care provided here so we can understand the distinction between the assistance offered and a full nursing home setting?
  • 5How does the management team handle communication with families, especially if there are updates regarding a resident's well-being or changes in their care needs?
  • 6In the event of a medical emergency after hours, what is the specific protocol for contacting both the on-site staff and our family members?

I will never be able to thank you enough for caring for my mom for the 2 years she was there. Thank you for providing her a nice, clean, well staffed and kept home with plenty of activities !!

Long-term resident's family · 2017★★★★★

These folks are absolutely amazing and a God send! Thank for showing such Love, Concern and Care to my step son for his stay at your facility!

Resident's family · 2023★★★★★

They make their wheelchair bound patients take their own soiled linen to the laundry room!!!! This is not help this is just being lazy, and the lack of empathy speaks for itself.
