I would especially like to give honorable mention to the front desk receptionist, Debbie, who is constantly available, working long hours and doing her job efficiently and always with a friendly disposition. She is an asset to the establishment and should be commended for her work ethic.

My mother was a resident at Preferred Care of Ridge for just under a year. Sadly, she passed away…read morethere this past week, and our family's experience was deeply upsetting. We received a call from the facility telling us that my mother was "transitioning" and that we should come right away. However, when my sister, who lives nearby, arrived, it was clear that our mother had already passed away and appeared to have been deceased for some time. Being told she was still alive when she had already passed made an incredibly painful situation even more heartbreaking. Throughout my mother's stay, we were disappointed with the quality of care. It often seemed like there were not enough nurses to properly care for the residents. The staff frequently appeared overwhelmed, and one nurse spent much of the time complaining instead of providing compassionate care. We never felt that my mother consistently received the attention and dignity she deserved. We also had a frustrating financial experience. Even though my mother passed away in June, the facility still withdrew the July payment. I called to request a refund and was told it would be returned, but we are still waiting. Having to deal with this while grieving has added unnecessary stress during an already difficult time. Based on our experience, we felt that the facility was more focused on collecting payments than on providing the level of care and compassion families expect for their loved ones. I hope they improve their communication with families, their staffing, and the quality of care they provide to their residents.

I waited a month after my mother's passing to write this review so I could have some distance and…read moreperspective from the events. I contracted with Alvita to care for my mother during the last two months of her life after she was injured in a fall. I paid for 24 hour home care seven days a week. Other than Fabienne, I found the caregivers sorely lacking in the most basic of qualities such as companionship and emotional support. Also, other than Fabienne, the one on one care for which they were hired (toileting, hygiene assistance, dressing, grooming, feeding, etc) was mostly delegated by them to the staff at the assisted living facility where my mother resided, which negated the whole point of hiring them in the first place. Chronic lateness was also the norm. Most arrived 10-20 minutes late for the start of the night shift The night shift crew was especially problematic. In addition to generally not performing the basic tasks for which they were hired ("it's not my job" was the common refrain, even though it literally was their job), they often did not even stay in the same room as my mother who was a fall risk. Some slept on the sofa in the living room during the night shift, some spent the night shift doing schoolwork in a separate room, and some spent hours of the night shift on their phone in the hallway outside of the apartment. The complaints became so numerous from the staff at the assisted living facility and from the hospice nurses that I eventually had to change agencies for the night shift. Three of the low points during the Alvita night shift require special mention. (1) There was the night that my mother sat in her own feces for the entirety of the night. When Hospice arrived in the morning, the waste was dry and hard and had been there all night, despite a 12 hour Alvita shift. (2) Many nights, my mother was put to bed at 7 PM for convenience sake without any social interaction or kindness on the part of the aide. (3) My mother suffered a skin tear on her arm the night after I complained about the aides sleeping on the job. I was told that she injured herself, but there are no witnesses other than the Alvita aide involved. On the opposite end of the spectrum is Fabienne. She was the primary Alvita daytime aide for my mother. Fabienne went above and beyond the call of duty. She exuded kindness and compassion. She took the utmost care of my mother and treated her with dignity and respect. When Fabienne was on the job, the staff at the assisted living facility and the hospice staff took a break because everyone knew that she had everything under control. This is the level of care advertised by Alvita and the level of care that I paid for, but only Fabienne met the mark. Not only did she meet expectations, but she blew everyone away with her level of care.
