Called for help and she hung up on me, when I called back I told her that kindly she hung up on me and she was rude and said she put me on hold. She doesn't know how to transfer you anywhere probably doesn't know how to use the phone. Hell, even answering the phone she had to repeat herself a few times. She probably just knows to how to pick and hang up the phone. You need to retire SUE cause you suck at what you do. This company has bad management, HR is never there when I call, been calling this whole week trying to get ahold of someone but SUE is always answering and won't transfer me anywhere but to the wrong people outside of the company. Had to call upper management from another state and report HR, management & SUE.

We had help from CayCare, who took us for a visit to A Better Place. My mom lived there for 4.5 months and we were very happy with the loving care she received. The owner has lots of experience with caring for people and with hospice care; the work she does is obviously a labor of love. She and the staff were consistently kind and caring with all the residents. The home was well taken care of, spacious and always clean. After such a bad experience at the previous facility, I was not just relieved but completely satisfied with A Better Place.

My mom has been living here for about a year. The thing that impressed me most when I took my tour…read morewas how clean it was. I have been in many retirement homes and they usually have a smell. This place is always clean, no elderly smell and no chemical smell covering up any sort of smell. The staff is kind and always friendly. The grounds are kept well. They provide 3 meals a day in the dining room and it always nice. My mom has made friends and calls bingo. She is active and no longer living alone waiting for someone to stop by and break up the monatoney. She has a social life for the first time in a long time. Yet she has her own apartment and privacy. This place has been a terrific option for my mom since living alone is not an option anymore but neither is giving up her independence. This is the best of both worlds.

I urge you not to consider this facility. On the surface, Willow Gardens presents as a friendly,…read morecaring, and well-run institution, truly interested in your well-being. However, these values are paper-thin and are demonstrated by the following observations: * FOOD: Portion sizes are extremely small and are often more on the child-size. It is highly unlikely that the daily calorie requirements are satisfied by the sizes provided by the kitchen. Although residents can ask for "seconds", they must wait for the completion of the entire food-service only to discover nothing is left. Making things worse, management is often observed taking "double-sized" portions while residents eat undersized portions. Food is heavily based on carbohydrates with little attention to fruits, vegetables, protein, etc. And deserts are heavily vetted on cookies! * HOUSEKEEPING: WG claims to be guided by an incredibly detailed checklist, but their small housekeeping staff only permits 20-minute limit to complete a superficial job. And, they have limited service to once every two weeks during the Covid crisis, with further limitations on an already reduced service! * MAINTENANCE: Service takes a long time. A simple light bulb will take 3 weeks to complete. However, I have to give them credit for acting quickly on urgent things like heat. But, management hampers the ability of maintenance to act quickly. For instance, sprinklers cannot be repaired because management claims to be "bidding" the project. Consequently, we have flooded sidewalks, at times. * MANAGEMENT: Managers are new and inexperienced at large hospitality facility management. They readily pacify residents with "we're doing the best we can" and "we're working on it" excuses. While they hold resident meetings, they do not readily seek out resident perspectives on their needs or satisfaction. * APPEARANCE: As I walk around the facility, little things pop-out that signal problem. Pictures are not hung at the same height. Dust is everywhere. Chairs are askew, and clutter hallways. Managers are sitting at their desks, not walking around interacting with residents. Smells from the rooms can be pretty obnoxious, at times. Some residents have reported obnoxious smells from resident rooms. So, why am I here? Well, it's for an entirely different reason. Other things overcome these obstacles. It has to do with location and the offerings that would give away my identity, but these problems are still overwhelming and deserve mentioning. I suspect, though, that I'll be shopping after the crisis.

Her dementia was taking over and that isn't what this place is for. The staff went above and beyond wherever Mom was concerned. You only hear of places like Mill Ridge when something goes wrong, never the daily things that everyone does right. You don't work in this industry if you aren't a caring individual and EVERYONE that I came in contact with there certainly was that. This is a great place and has a great staff. I don't have much experience, but they set the bar pretty high in my opinion. Thank you to the whole staff!

They basically keep you stuck here with little to no resources for leaving unless you get placed in an adult family home. Their pharmaceutical provider doesn't listen to patients and will not provide any information when trying to get ssi or ssdi. If you already have ssi they will take all but $70 of your check. The new director "Candace" has turned it more so into a prison like environment and has no knowledge of trauma informed care, so if you're suffering from ptsd like me this is not the place for you. They do not treat ADHD rather the symptoms of it. They took me off of the only medication that helped my panic attacks within days of being here, while a different person who looked different than me was kept on it for multiple weeks if not months. I have seen an actual doctor all but three times since being here almost a year. Being homeless and having no options for housing aside from here makes them highly capable of taking advantage of some of the most vulnerable individuals. Do not seek care here they are not a good residential facility, they treat individuals like criminals rather than human beings who suffer mental health illnesses. I want to express my current state of distress and concern regarding my safety and well-being in this environment. Unfortunately, I no longer feel safe here and have been experiencing a sense of being threatened and singled out. It has come to my attention that there are extreme double standards at play, which have further contributed to my unease. I feel compelled to raise the issue of Candace's lack of trauma-informed care and knowledge about mental health conditions, particularly concerning my own struggles. Her actions have resulted in me feeling harassed and bullied, specifically due to her disregard for my anxiety and trauma response around food and large crowds or groups of people. As a result, my panic attacks have significantly increased in frequency and intensity since she implemented her rigid and harsh approach towards me. I kindly request that my concerns be taken seriously, as they greatly impact my overall well-being and ability to thrive in this environment. It is crucial that steps are taken to create a safer and more supportive space for individuals dealing with mental health challenges. I hope for a resolution that ensures my housing stability and promotes a more compassionate and understanding approach for everyone involved.
