My wife is in Senior Commons at Powder Mill Alzheimer's unit. I haven't been there much, but her son and daughter have been there. They seem very satisfied. They said they seem to be working with her, and she seems to be content there. I call every day. When I called, she was watching TV.
I was there three times before I took her in there, and it seemed very, very nice. Everyone there seemed very pleasant to work with. I don't see anything wrong with it. Her daughter said she was surprised how well she is eating. She doesn't eat many greens, but she seems to like the food.
They have activities for them almost every day. On Thursdays, they have a game playing thing for them. They have a courtyard for them where they can go out, but they can't get out of that (which is good). They can't wander off or anything. So far, I think everything's going quite well.
The staff seems very friendly. I call the nursing station every day and ask for my wife. They're very helpful and very pleasant. They let me know how she's doing. I'm satisfied so far.

We're going to move my father-in-law to Senior Commons at Powder Mill. We chose it because it's clean, it smelled good, the staff seems very friendly and the care seems like it would be very good. The staff that we met there seemed very personable and friendly. They took their time to talk to us and we could watch them dealing with the patients there. We talked to one of the residents and he had nothing but good to say about the place, he loved being there and he loved the food. So that made us feel good about it too. They had windows everywhere, so there's a lot of natural light coming in, and the rooms are nice sizes.

My Mother became a resident in mid-April. They were very helpful getting her moved in. From there things deteriorated. When I walked into her room 10 days later there was an odor, her hair was greasy and she smelled. There was no soap, shampoo, toilet paper or towels. When I confronted the staff I was told that Mom was supposed to ask for these items. I was not informed of this when Mom was admitted. Mom is 98 with dementia, how would she know to do this. She had just moved in. She was using her robe to dry herself, saying that she showed every day but could not get clean without soap! No one followed instructions that Mom is Incontinent. There were two bags of depends in her drawers which were not used. There are clothes missing, other people’s clothes in her drawers and closet. I brought this to the staff but nothing changed. Aides came into her room without masks and those who wore masks did not always wear them properly. It took multiple calls to get these issues resolved. The TV did not work for two weeks, her phone was not connected for at least three weeks. The condition my Mom was living in was deplorable. Also there was a medication that had been prescribed for Mom after she had pneumonia. This was never used. There were so many problems that should have never happened. We place our family members lives in their care and it is disappointing to find that they have no compassion. She was not treated with dignity. They are in the business of making money. I would not recommend this facility to anyone!!

My father fell while in the memory care unit there and they didn't notify us or the hospital for 8 hours. Unfortunately the head injury lead to his death a few days later.
