My mother was a resident at the Inn at Village Square during the past two years, and we had a…read morewonderfully positive experience. The caring and professionalism extend throughout every aspect of the community. The staff readily identified health concerns and sought to remedy them by referencing patient history and reaching out to doctor. They offered a full calendar of activities each week, as well as 'pop-up' events like ice cream socials. Whenever I visited, there were always residents outside (weather permitting) enjoying the sunshine, getting some exercise, and being social with each other. During the last challenging six months of the coronavirus, my mother frequently voiced how safe and cared for she felt as everyone at the Inn scrupulously adhered to guidelines in order to protect residents. My family and I appreciate their commitment to building community, their collaboration with family, and their dedication to the health and welfare of the residents.

They said they were full, but I think because he was in a facility in Ellsworth which they also own which has empty beds, they didn't want to move him down here.

They talk a great game but are hardly communicative unless pushed. My parent was discharged after a month and ended up spending 11 days in the hospital two hours after getting home. Effective rehab experience??? Not! We were advocating for our parent & experienced a marginal effort for her to regain some health. Imagine those elderly folks who don't have family. Beware! One star because I couldn't post without it.

I was an employee of the Cedars from 2000 to 2017. I was very proud to work there and I have told…read moremy friends I would recommend The Cedars to anyone who is in need of a skilled rehabilitation center. I would be happy to have a family member be a patient there. The Cedars is non-profit, and their focus on quality patient care shows. The bottom line is not about money. I was proud to work there, and I would work there again. It is a clean facility, with very caring CNAs who are very good at their jobs. The nurses are smart and caring. The PTs, OTs, speech therapist and therapy assistants have excellent skills. The Cedars have had the same staff for many years. Overall I really am impressed with the level of care they provide.

Unnecessary testing was done when she was still on medications which made her drowsy on top of not being able to sleep at night because of a very loud roommate. ((Might I add, she was there for recovery, not to be tested/treated for dementia!!!) Dr Doane's ( assistant, he didn't even perform this test himself) determined she had dementia, couldn't live on her own anymore and was a hazard on the road, before any further testing was done he actually had her license pulled! 3 days later the nurse practitioner and her primary care physician said there was no sign of memory issues... She was fine and testing while vulnerable/recovering was incomprehensible!!! Now, she has to appeal to the state and take a road test. In the meantime, living on her own, they sent her home with no way to get to her appointment's or even get food. When they discharged her, we also noticed they gave us the wrong records and we have all the health and lifetime info of another person! Even that this person's husband is a child molester & she weighs 274lbs? Doreen, the very smug discharge nurse, was the least helpful and seemed all but upset to deliver the aweful news of how difficult getting my mom's license back would be with a smile on her face! Just Google reviews of Marshwood, they've actually made it to the news for so many complaints, and borderline being shut down. We will also be filing a complaint through the state and insurance.

Our friend was put into The Wood at Canco Retirement Home Portland Me. 3 years ago. Things changed…read moreover the 3 years. What she were told when she went in to The Wood at Canco and what she received over the time she was there was a great big LIE. Lie number 1. She was told she would have a ride to doctor appointments in the company van. Shortly after she got there they lost they driver and never got another one. And from what we seen and heard there never tried to get another driver. Lie number 2. She needed her ears taken care of she couldn't hear, this never got done they told her they had an onsite nurse. Not much help if any from any nurse the whole time she was there. Lie number 3. After time goes by she would be checked on to see if she would have to move to another part of the building for when she would need full care. That meant her would go into hospice care when the time came and she would be allowed to pass there, that never happened. Lie number 4. When she was getting so she could not manage alone anymore they said she need to go some were else for hospice care. She was told she could live out the rest of her life there. That was one of the biggest lies, a very CRUEL thing to do to a person close to the end of there life. The big thing for going there was to live out her life there and not have to have to much change that late in life. Pretty crappy for $7000.00 a month. After some time there the cleaning was lacking, the food started to slip and a big lack of help. When they moved her out they told her they would send the things not needed anymore to Goodwill then they informed her she needed to pay more than $400.00 to have her things removed that was LIE number 5. and Now she is in the City Hospital costing her even more. No person at 100 years old should have to go threw things like these. These places suck your money dry then throw you out like a bag of trash. Lies on top of Lies I hope people read this and will pass the word and never to put your loved ones in this retirement home.
