My brother is in The Caring Place and we have been well pleased with his care and adjustment to being there, He enjoys all the activities and loves going to their church services. I feel it"s very well maintained and extremely clean and have not noticed odors. They notify us of all changes, whether it be meds, physical therapy, appointments, etc.

It's never easy to see a loved one loose their independence and have to go live in a specialized care facility like this. But I think this nursing home offer a lot of nice ammentities for residents with the dining room and chapel. I love that they have an old dog in the visiting room and they decorate for the holidays and have a little gift shop. The residents can play games and win credits for the gift shop, which keeps my grandma spry and willing to get out of her bed and down to the common areas. It's not a perfect place, sometimes mistakes are made with the medication and there isn't someone to help each person with their meals (my grandma has Parkinson's and it is very hard for her to cut up food and get it to her mouth). but I would never leave my grandma in a place where I wouldn't feel comfortable staying, and I think this place is pretty good. The rooms are very small for people navigating wheel chairs, but the layout of the other rooms is good. I really admire the people who work here. They always seem pleasant, chipper, and willing to help, and my grandma has really bonded with a few of them.

Overall, this is a nice facility. Rooms are nice and I hear the food isn't too bad for this type of facility. The best part is that the employees engage residents in games and fun things in the evenings to keep them occupied. For example, a bingo game among residents is always a blast. The negative part has to do with the employees' qualifications. They seem to not be very knowledgeable and one time my great grandpa left the facility (he was very forgetful) and none of the members of the staff even knew he was gone. We drove by and saw him walking on a bridge saying he was going to climb a mountain. That's completely uncalled for. Other than that incident, it seems like a nice place for the elderly who can't take care of themselves. It's also at a great location with a beautiful view of the river and trees. One additional negative, I suppose is the smell but that comes with assisted living facilities.
