My mother spent her last few weeks of life at Caroleton Healthcare Center. Our experience with this home and the staff was superb. Look past the older appearance of the building, and understand a smaller home is more family like and the staff is what really counts. My family was extremely happy with the staff. Valarie was very helpful and so kind to us, Jessie was also helpful with financial discussions, as well as the other caring staff members who treated our mom lovingly. If we asked for something or had a question, if the staff did not have the item or know the answer right away, they got it to us promptly in a very reasonable time. They always got back to us and kept us informed. We knew we could count on them to help our mom and us. We could not be happier with this home & staff and will refer it to others.

As a hospice nurse, I am in and out of facility often. A smaller facility, however staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Great communication. Appears to have great staff/patient ratios. Management are top notch. Great collaboration between myself, nursing and management staff. Activities are taking place often. Would recommend!

Really caring employees at this facility. The business office person Jessie should be promoted for her expertise and is a great credit to this business. The nursing care is second to none. My wife has found the care to be exceptional and would certainly recommend this nursing facility to all. Thanks to Tonya, the director there for her superior leadership skills.

A small facility but is staffed well! Always smells good in building (that's important). Food always looks good. Seems residents do not lack attention!

My Mother was there for a year. They allways complained about her TV being too Loud. But they would never get her hearings aids fixed. Even though was a nursing home they couldn't seem to manage to put her in area where other residents perhaps didnt hear to well. Several time she was left on the toilet for 45 minutes at a time to the point she would try to get up and fall down. This happend 3 times. Most of staff was very nice. Linens were allways clean. But for that experiance I had her moved to another facility. I was standing close to her when she asked the director to take her out to smoke or find someone. She said no she wasnt and she wasnt going to do it rather then finding someone to do it. I dont think she realized I was her son close by listening. They seemed to couse her more stress being there becouse of her TV being so loud and nor moveing roommates when they did not get along. That is why I gave a 2 . I was going to give a 1.
