Mom has been to North Shore for about a month. She had to stay in that facility because it was her doctor's advised to her. But she's doing great now. We never had a problem during her stay in this nursing home. They treat her with care & respect. One thing that I just notice that they don't have a variety of food. But I guess it's normal to have that kind of food in a nursing home. What's important to us now is that mom is doing well now.

I went to this facility with my grandma. She wanted to stop by and see a friend. My grandma talked to some people briefly at a desk area. Then we went to an outside area where her friend was sitting. She was sitting alone but she was happy. There were a few other residents outside too. They were dressed appropriately for the weather. They were sitting comfortably at tables. The area was clean. There was a lady who seemed less "with it" that was yelling angrily nearby. My grandma's friend asked us to push her inside (she uses a wheelchair). We went down a clean hallway towards a staff member my grandma's friend wanted to see. The staff member was polite and talked to her nicely, even though she looked like she was trying to go somewhere. We went to the resident's room and she asked me to get photo albums so she could show me pictures. They were located in her room. Her room was clean and personalized. It was quiet enough that I could talk to this person without distractions. It didn't have the feel of a medical place as far as the noise. I am not an expert on nursing homes, but this place was nice to visit. I think the residents are happy there compared to other places. I would definitely consider it if someone in my family needs a nursing home in the future.
