I am so very grateful to have my Mother living here. The Aides are attentive and caring. Mom's family can come and go anytime we want, so we see the facility and Mom in different modes depending on the time of day. The staff assists us any way they can; whether it is bringing Mom's tray to an area where we can eat with her or taking her to the bathroom. The facility is clean and welcoming. There is a wide variety of activities. Mom has Alzheimers so she doesn't always want to participate in activities, but she still has contact with other residents. Activities include everything from church services to happy hour to crafts. The Dining Room is similar to home dining; tablecloths, "real" napkins, etc. Mom's doctor and the nurses always visit with the family and voice any concerns and ask if we have any concerns. I know every family has different needs, but Benedictine Living Center of Spooner has certainly met my Mother's needs and her family's needs.
