What this means for your family
While many families report a warm, modern environment and a very supportive transition team, there is a recurring pattern of critical communication failures during medical emergencies. We strongly recommend asking the administration for their specific protocol on family notification during health crises and verifying their current laundry and room-cleaning schedules before committing.

However, long-term concerns regarding inconsistent care, poor communication during medical emergencies, and issues with laundry and room cleanliness persist. Families should weigh the positive, modern atmosphere against reports of administrative challenges and staffing turnover.”

Key Review Excerpts
“The staff at Addington Place are always there to respond quickly in emergent situations. It is wonderful that they contract with waiver and are willing to help so many people in tough situations.”
“The facility may be lovely at first glance, but they are not good at keeping the residents rooms clean at all such as emptying trash cans, picking things up from the floor like wrappers or leaves from flowers and all the dirty linens and wet dirty clothing are thrown on the floor in the corner and will stay there for days”
“The staff has been amazing and have been our right hand. I don't know what we would have done without them! Definitely a great move!”
