My mother-in-law is doing well so far at The Village at Carroll Park. We chose it because it was really clean. Everybody in there was super efficient and nice. The price was much more reasonable than any of the others that we looked at. When we moved her in, it was amazing how they handled it and everything. It worked out really well. She's in memory care, and the staff was all good. I didn't actually sample the food myself, but she ate every bite and she liked it. It's nothing fancy, but the care they give and the people there impressed me. They have a church, and they have activities. She had to get a semi-private room because that was all she could afford, but there was plenty of room in there for her. She has a chair, a television, a bed, and a table in there.

The Village at Carroll Park is a family run business. Everyone so far has been very kind and accommodating. Mom is in the memory care and they serve really good food to the residents. The rooms are a nice size. The only thing I don't like about it so far is they have shared bathrooms. It's like you have one room, which could have two people in it, and then there's a bathroom in the middle, and another room on the other side. So, it's like four residents have to share the bathroom, and it could get pretty messy. They have some activities for the residents and they do a good job with that, but I wish they could have more. It's just that some people require more and some don't. I really appreciate that they really worked with us though. The management and all of that are really cooperative.

My mother is at The Village at Carroll Park. I did three surprise visits. I didn't just go make an appointment and have a tour. I just came in three times to make sure they didn't clean or something, but every time I went in, there was no smell. It was very clean and everybody was so friendly. They have a beauty salon. The food looked good and smelled good, but I did not try it. They have bingo and Bible study, which my mom wanted. The night that I left her, they had a live band and they were playing bluegrass music. I did not stay for that though. I love the staff. They have a patio, but mom has dementia, so she has to be supervised out there, but it's fenced in and it's a big covered area. There's also a garden area you can walk in or you can tend the garden if you would have been interested in that. It seemed like they kept them busy and that's what I was looking for, something to keep her occupied, so she wouldn't be bored just sitting around. The facility is pretty nice. The rooms are a little small, but they try not to keep them in their rooms. If she had a private room, then it would have been big. They were less expensive than all the other ones I looked at, but that's not why I picked them. I didn't care about expenses. The staff is amazing with her. When I dropped my mother off, my worry was her following me back out and the head nurse that was going to do her intake, she redirected mama, and just her attitude and everything was amazing My mother is in the memory hall only. She's not mixed with the others. I would recommend them. The patients look clean and happy. They got three short wings just for memory. Another thing I loved about it is when you walk in the door, it's their dining room and their nurses' station is right there, so someone is watching them at all times.
