I went to Grand Oaks. When I walked in the Alzheimer's facility, I thought it was great. I really liked it. It's more expensive, but I just thought they had a great Alzheimer's facility there. They have too many perks that we can't afford to pay for -- and that my mom won't use. I thought Grand Oaks was the best. Everything I saw there was great. They had two courtyards in the Alzheimer's unit, which I love. I like courtyards, and I like the fact that the patients can walk out of the door. Naturally there's an alarm when an Alzheimer's patient goes out, but they had courtyards, so they can go out and sit, and my mom would love that. They had two different courtyards, and I like that. I felt like it was bright, and they cared about the lighting, which I thought was important. You can tell that they had track lighting, so things just look brighter. The only problem is that their facility is overstuffed with amenities that my mom won't use. When I went down to see the regular people -- not Alzheimer's patients -- they're regular patients eating food, and they were having lobster, crab bombs, and wine at the table. It's like you have to pay $10,000 a year whether you're going to have that wine or not. It's just a little pricey for what my mom would need. They had a person come over and basically give you a menu. They had a menu and it's like a restaurant. They have a menu, a chef, and all that kind of stuff. The food was outstanding. I thought the staff members were good too. I couldn't find anything wrong except the price. The activities director was outstanding. They knew so much about how to get Alzheimer's patients to do what you want them to do.
