I had an in-person tour of Laurel Cove Community. It was really, really friendly. Everybody seemed to know people's names, and they chatted with each other. I liked how in the memory care, the doors open out into a hallway, and that you can't get lost getting to the activities room and eating area. I saw their activities calendar, and I actually saw one of the activities. The people were sitting around and laughing. The woman doing the tour asked them what they were doing, and they said they were talking about their childhood. Everybody was so engaged. I liked the courtyard. The rooms are big. The staff was friendly and nice. They knew the people who lived there. It was a homier feeling. The facility wasn't quite as fancy, but it's very clean and updated.

My wife and I have lived here since Dec 2021. She has Alzheimers and Type 1 diabetes. We moved her because we need 3 meals per day and medicine management. I have long term care.
We are still doing our own cooking and medicine (including insulin injections). We keep getting told that "We are getting it set up." We though that we could get a 30 gram diabetic diet (one bread, one bowl of fruit, and whatever else they offered that didn't have significant carbs in it. We had some meetings only to find that that the chef wouldn't do that, so we mix some food from the kitchen with carbs we prepare.
We are still waiting them taking over the insulin injections (sliding scale) and meds. They got a new nurse April 20th (or there abouts) but she is still working on that.
The stress has my wife rejecting more and more of the food that was being cooked, because of the resentment.
I am at wits end. No other care facilities do slinging scale injections (that I and my relatives have found). My wife is demanding that we eat out all the time (which is not good for her), and I feel like I should be do more to get the services I need.
