If Twin Towers is still around when I'm old, I'd love to live here!…read more I stopped by the retirement home today to observe a presentation on Cincinnati history, taking place in one of the auditoriums. As the venue was located at the far end of the building, I had the opportunity to walk by many of the activity rooms, residences, and interact with staff. The facility was very spacious, clean, and modern. There is a gym with a variety of work out equipment, and staff members helping residents exercise. A beautiful dining hall sits off to the side. Whatever beef dish was being cooked for dinner smelled delicious! Two staff members helped residents find their seats in the auditorium, closed the blinds for the slideshow, and joked along with all the seniors. Everyone seemed to be having a good time, and the caregivers really enjoyed their job. The seniors clustered together in their friend groups, some in pairs. The little old ladies were adorable in their knitted shawls, matching pastel outfits, and fresh perms. Twin Towers has been a staple of Cincinnati since 1899 and sprawls out over 120 acres. Beautiful gardens surround the exterior and many residents have patio balconies to enjoy the view. Offering both senior apartments and assisted living, Twin Towers looks like a great place to spend your golden years. Since it is also a historic landmark, tours of the facility are offered to the public: http://www.lec.org/twinTowers/TwinTowersHistoricTours.htm

No doctor or nurse practitioner bothered to evaluate the patient when she was complaining of extreme pain before making medication decisions, and ignored recommendations from hospice nurse. Arrogant LPN who asked patient to state her pain level from 1-10, and when patient replied 9, the LPN said "you don't look like you're a 9." Definitely a "we know best" philosophy that does not prioritze the patient. When patient was being cleaned by nurses, family was subjected to listening to patient screaming "I hope you are killing me because I can't take any more of this." Horrific experience. We moved her to the nursing facility at the Kenwood Senior Star where she had wonderful, patient centric and empathetic care. What a mistake to subject our mother to MPL.

Fast forward to many, many months later. After my brother could not get a call back from admissions director, I left a message asking for status update because Mom now needed more care than Dad could provide. When she returned call, she said, coincidentally, that she was getting ready to call about a room opening. All we needed to do was take Mom to a pre-admission evaluation at the facility with nurses and admissions director. The day of the scheduled evaluation, the admissions director did not show up and did not have the courtesy to let anyone know she would not be there or why. The nurses were not friendly. When we had to follow up days later, we were STUNNED To learn Mom's admission was DECLINED due to her memory issues being "too advanced." WHAT??? Isn't that what memory care is? I can't help wonder if the next person on the waiting list had more assets. Don't let the name fool you.
