Farmington's highly skilled and compassionate caregivers and staff provided outstanding care for my…read moremom until the end of her life. She came to live at Farmington after a difficult period. She had been in the hospital and then a rehabilitation center after suffering a hip fracture at a retirement community's memory unit in Portland's West Hills. That community looked like a high end hotel and was considered the best in the Portland area. It was expensive but I assumed it meant my mom would be receiving high quality care and that was extremely important to me. I quickly learned that a beautiful facility and high fees do not translate to good care. The staff were pleasant but did not seem connected to the residents and took care of their needs in a perfunctory manner. They were also unskilled when it came to working with memory impaired individuals. When I called to check in, they seemed to have no idea how my mom was doing and my mom was rarely bathed. This concerned me and so I ended up paying extra for personal caregivers several times a week. It was at this facility that my mom was intentionally pushed over by an 18 year-old unskilled caregiver and suffered a extremely painful and debilitating hip fracture. After rehabilitation, my mom arrived at Farmington Square. She was crying and clinging on to me as this was her third transition within a span of 2 months. I was not able to accompany her inside as Farmington was abiding by strict COVID protocols. The staff there went out of their way to help my mom feel at ease and helped her get to know other residents. They also reassured me. Whenever I called to check in on her, they clearly seemed to know and care about her and provided detailed updates. When I spoke with her on the phone, she seemed happy. Once limited visits were allowed, they were very accommodating. In June of 2021, my mom's health declined and she was placed in hospice. Initially, I was going to bring her to my home, but I realized her needs exceeded my capabilities. I felt like I was letting her down but after spending time at Farmington with her, I quickly realized that she had wonderful relationships with the residents and caregivers and it was home to her. My sisters and I stayed with my mom 24/7 during the last weeks of her life and we were able to observe the consistent high quality care that my mom as well as all the other residents received. These outstanding caregivers were all emotionally mature individuals who were naturally compassionate people. They were attuned to my mom's needs and she was receptive to their caregiving because they were well-trained and had developed a trusting relationship with her. The staff and administrators even took care of me and my sisters. They brought in trays with coffee, ice water, and snacks and sat beside us as we struggled to say goodbye to our mom. Through these experiences I have seen the very worst and the very best of care for a loved one. Farmington exemplifies the very best by focusing their efforts on hiring extraordinary caregivers, which meant that my mom was always clean and comfortable and experienced the joy of meaningful relationships and feeling loved at the end of her life.

The dining room servers are usually teenagers and they try to make us happy. I ask for something and frequently the answer is "of course". There is always something I want to eat.

The reception desk is behind glass and we patiently awaited either of the two ladies talking inside the office to assist us or at the very least acknowledge our presence at the desk. During our approximately five minute wait, one of the two ladies looked our way, but never indicated that they saw us and would be with us at some point in time. After what we believe was an extraordinary amount of waiting, we decided to leave without talking to any staff member. I sent an email to management via their website to describe our experience and never got a reply from them. While I am not willing to assume that the care-givers would exhibit similar behavior, I am still somewhat dismayed that any employee of Beaverton Lodge would ignore someone seeing assistance at this facility.

Based on the interactions that my family and I have seen we have been very appreciative of the work that the staff does. I highly recommend this facility!

My grandfather has been living at Canfield for just about a year. We enjoy coming to visit him…read morehere. The location is bright and smells clean, the staff always welcome us when we arrive and have listened to us when we have had concerns or ideas in the past. Residents are welcomed to join each other at the dinning room tables of four, and Canfield also offers games, activities and exercise. There are groups who come in to the center to play musical instruments, sing, sell small items like candy/cookies, and perform. The trivia games are one of my grandfather's favorite activities to participate in. He tells us about a new game every time we visit. There's often Wii Bowling that is fun to watch as well as participate in. The nurses and medical staff at Canfield have made sure that my grandfather is able to have his medicine daily, on time and the amount that has been prescribed to him. This is an additional fee on top of the monthly rent, but has been worth the extra to make sure that every i is dotted, and t is crossed. We can feel confident in the attention that he's getting thanks to this helpful addition. The staff check with my grandfather's doctors about medicine updates, and are able to order perscribtions to arrive at Canfield instead of family members having to pick up from a local pharmacy and deliver them to the center. The option to have a personal car drive my grandfather to appointments has been another comfort that we're willing to pay for. There is a small fee, but it's personal service and the level of independence that my grandfather feels is huge. We love that he can tell us, "I went to the dentist today," thanks to this service. Each resident at Canfield wears an emergency call button on a bracelet on their wrist or around their neck. When my grandfather found that he couldn't get out of bed from his nap he pushed the button and immediately the staff determined that they should transport him to the hospital. Thanks to this quick thinking and response my grandfather has no lasting affects from this episode. The dinning room offers a rotating menu with options that appeal to my grandfather's tastes. The kitchen has recently been remolded and the dinning room space is open and bright! The residents are also able to pick from standard items on an additional menu. There are always options like oatmeal and bacon or eggs for breakfast. If it's between meal times there is tea, coffee and ice cream available. If a resident were to want to have a meal delivered to their room that is an option for an additional fee. There is also an option to have a staff member walk the resident to the dinning room (another additional fee). All of these options make the care at Canfield just what each resident needs. We have enjoyed holiday dinners hosted by Canfeild too. You are welcome to buy a meal and join residents year round. We loved the Easter brunch they served and my parents were so excited to share Thanksgiving dinner with my grandfather at Canfeild, NO DISHES to clean up! Bonus! My grandfather's room has a little kitchenette equpped with a microwave, refrigerator and sink. We originally picked Canfield because my grandfather was able to bring his small poodle with him (that's right, pets are welcome!). Canfield offered us a room where my grandfather is able to exit on the ground floor to let the dog outside, but they also offer the option of having a staff member let the dog out if a resident isn't able to (for a fee). We all know how important pets are, and how they can really affect our quality of life for the better. This option made Canfeild a no-brainer for us as a family when my grandfather was no longer able to live on his own. We are thankful that my grandfather is at Canfield and always know they will take great care of him!
