Daughter of a Bob
September 21, 2022
My father has been in Memory Care at Norris Square for several years.
He is generally happy, but with his dementia he is also sometimes confused, anxious, or doesn't want to be helped.
But the staff has been great with him. Between my sister and me, and other friends, we keep a good eye on him and have been impressed with the assistance and attempts to keep residents entertained, fed and clean.
It's a tough job taking care of individuals with dementia , but I don't see frustration, anger or neglect on the part of the staff.... mostly love and caring. Everyone, from management to nursing, maintenance, housekeeping and especially individual caretakers - know my Dad and keep a good eye on him. The nursing staff collaborates with me on his care and keeps me well informed as to his medications, health in general, any issues. The staff has been very accommodating to special requests.
The activities are very good, though better before Covid when there were numerous field trips.
One thing I'd like:
I'd like more ability to have house call visits from various medical professionals (more optical, foot doc, hearing, heart, etc.) but our society seems to have turned away from in home dr visits so I'm not sure this is available anywhere.
