My parents aged out at Telford, starting in independent living and then moving through every level…read moreof care that they had (Skilled, Personal Care, and finally Memory Care). I was not a fan of them moving in due to my perception of "nursing homes" but I learned otherwise in the four+ years they were there. Literally every single person we interacted with from the nursing staff to rehab to cooks, laundry, maintenance staff, etc. was like family. The professional level of care that my parents received (and us as their family) cannot be overstated except to compare it to the compassion that went with it. We were really clueless about what the last years of their lives was going to entail, and the staff here did it so much better than we ever could have. My husband and I ended up getting on the waiting list and now have a deposit down on one of the carriage homes being built; it doesn't get any better than this for end of life experiences. Aside from the fact that the carriage homes are gorgeous, the kind of care that is there as a "safety net" is exactly what we want. The added bonus is us both being on the same campus if one of us starts to fail in later years; not only does the other one not have to move, they can walk to visit, take meals and do activities together, and in some cases actually be together in the advanced care. (My parents were together in Memory Care.). I highly recommend Lutheran Home @ Telford.

I toured several facilities in the area and Telford Lutheran Community was the best choice for my…read moreparents. They have all levels of care. My father moved into independent living while my mom had to go into skilled nursing. My father is able to visit my mom everyday since they were located within the same campus. Bad weather no problem, you only have to walk across an enclosed bridge. The various levels of care both my parents have been receiving is exemplary. Telford Lutheran is like the Ritz Carlton of care facilities. When I would visit my Aunt in Florida I wondered why she did not get the same care at her facility. She was paying almost the same every month. Telford may be a little more than other communities but it shows in the care and people they hire. If you are searching for a place for your parents I would put Telford Lutheran on your list to review. You will not be disappointed.

We placed our mother in Holly House at Meadowood one month ago after spending 3 weeks at…read moreShannondell. Meadowood is far far better. From the moment we pulled up in a transport, someone met us in the parking lot, till we got her settled. Everyone was perfect. Each day only got better. The rehab people are great, and the nursing staff and aides actually like their jobs! I'm not sure we would have fully appreciated how great this place is if we didn't have such an awful experience at Shannondell. Mom loves the food (she stopped eating at the other place). All the residents are dressed each day and happy, easily talking with each other. The staff cannot do enough for you. Family is welcome to stay as long as you want (and they actually mean it). The full time residents from the senior living often stop in the hallways to say hi and are very welcoming. I cannot say enough good things about this. Finding a place to put your loved one is simply the hardest decision you have to make, whether it is for a day, a week or a lifetime. I cannot say how truly happy we are that Mom is here. We look forward to her coming home, and realize that they are teaching her all the necessary things to accomplish that goal. Bravo Holly House at Meadowood. You truly are a wonderful place.

Beautiful facilities. Good nurses. That's the best I can report…read more My wife was at Holly House for a few weeks following a broken leg. PT was disappointing at a few times per week and about 20 mins per session. The room service was horrible, sometimes up to an hour after pressing the Call button. Food was tasty but often arrived up to an hour after standard meal times, and often cold. The aides were a mixed bag. Some were downright nasty and my wife advised that one yelled at her and made her cry. At meal times, the whole staff seemed to go eat at the same time, leaving no one to service patients. I'd stay away from this place and choose a smaller facility with more personable service. Its administratively out of control up to the top. They need a Quality task force composed of top management and line workers to view the daily routine and get intensive feedback from the patients. BOTTOM LINE: STAY AWAY UNTIL MANAGEMENT POSTS THEIR REPORT ON HOW THEY'VE CLEANED THINGS UP

The physical therapist has been fantastic in getting her up and moving again (she had become bed-ridden).

He was severely dehydrated and numerous blood clots in his legs. He was in a memory care unit and was told he needed prompting and reminders to drink and eat. They neglected him! The staff has no compassion or love. Extremely disrespectful and poorly run! From the beginning, the communication is horrible. Dominique does not know how to return calls. We were given paperwork and contracts after my Dad was admitted. Erica, the Director of Nursing, has the coldest heart if she in fact has a heart. No one could give us an answer to what happened to my Dad. We wanted to pick up his belongings, no one would call us back. So funny that the staff has time on their Facebook page to make videos of them doing the chicken dance, yet they can't give my Father a glass of water! Horrible place. Stay away. Would never recommend!
