I went to visit a friend of mine. Everyone I talked to was friendly . The employees looked happy and so did the residents. My friend had to call for some ice to put on her knee. Two employees came right away. So she had ice to put under her knee and on top of her knee . I was very lmpressed with everything I saw. I witnessed patient interacting with each other. Thank you for treating my friend so well.

My first time visiting a friend at this facility! It was amazing! Such a friendly and welcoming entry ! I was able to say hello to people in the hall both staff and patients. The room where my friend was located was welcoming and cheerful!

My biggest complaint is that a resident can wait 50 minutes before any staff member will respond to him even when he is in pain. That's unacceptable. Nobody even acknowledged the fact that he was trying to call for his nurse and what made it even worse was a staff member who was assisting the roommate reached behind the curtain and switched off my partners call light and said absolutely nothing to him! Aside from everything else that's pure negligence. It's unprofessional and it IS neglect! As a partner to the resident and POA I am treated as if I am some sort of subordinate and I am far from that. The staff are not responsible for being short staffed...but when another resident finds another resident on the floor I have a problem with that.

This was my first time visiting the Edgewood Centre and I was quite impressed. I believe that my visit was in the West Wing and it had a quite pleasant atmosphere. While visiting my friend, four different staff members came in at various times all with smiles on their faces and very happy to take their time to answer any and all questions. Job well done!

I recently visited Edgewood Nursing Home and had a positive experience overall. I spoke with the nurse’s station about taking the patient out, and they were helpful and accommodating. When the call button was pressed for a bathroom break, staff responded in a timely and respectful manner, which I truly appreciated. A special mention to Whitney — she was caring, attentive, and genuinely fun to talk with. Her warm personality made the visit even more pleasant. The facility felt welcoming, and the team seemed attentive to the residents’ needs. Thank you for providing a comfortable and supportive environment.
