We've decided to keep my mom at AdamsPlace. The quality of care is excellent. It's like living in an old, beautiful southern mansion. It's stately, and it's well-kept. My sister and I looked at every facility in Murfreesboro that had different levels of care and it was the nicest of all of them. We were astounded when we went in because it was so beautiful, and we thought we could not afford it. But it was right on par with all of the other independent living places, in fact, less costly than some. The upkeep is immaculate. They just recarpeted downstairs and they plan to recarpet all the different floors. It's sparkling clean. You walk into the lobby, and its big marble floors. The big main room has a fireplace, a baby grand piano, and a lot of seating. They have a lot of music events and a lot of things for the residents to do. Mom is playing bridge with a group. It's like being in a real community home. There's a library that goes there once a week and they got to know the kinds of books mom liked and that she needed large print, so they would bring special books for her. I'm sure they did that for everybody. First Bank in Murfreesboro comes once a week, so the residents don't have to go to the bank if they don't want to. Plus, there's a guy there who takes you anywhere you want to go. All you have to do is call him. And they have regular schedules to take them to the grocery stores a couple of times a week. The place is fully staffed by full-time employees. There are no temporary employees there, which I think is a real advantage. Everybody that works there is so kind and so nice, up to the director who would see me any time. She knows me by name. She knows all the residents by name. The person that cleaned mom's room got to be friends with her. It is just very much her home. She has a 1-bedroom apartment, and it is perfect for her. They have different sizes of apartments. You can get two bedrooms or you can get a bedroom with a den. We opted to go with the smallest one, but we're amazed at how much of her furniture fit in there. Her couch, two end tables, a coffee table, two chairs, a TV, and a kitchen table all sit in the main area without being crowded. The grounds are beautiful. In independent living, she gets one meal a day. She can choose whether that's lunch or dinner. And the dining room is gorgeous. She sits with a certain group of ladies and the person that waits on them knows all of their preferences without even asking. She knows that mom doesn't like ice in her water and so she never brought her water with ice. It is just very, very personalized care. I had eaten there several times and it was OK. I wouldn't say it was great, but it was good. They have some problems keeping a chef. The food is better than average, but not restaurant quality. During the COVID, they brought everybody's food to the room.
