My dad was here for a little over a year. I put cameras in his room and I was up there 2/3 times a week. I watched him all night as I kept the cameras on 24/7 and also recording everything. My dad was treated good. The first 2-3 months was adjusting to him being there. I got angry a lot because I wanted someone with him 24/7. But I realized it’s a job to a majority of the staff and yes I encountered hateful and rude ones - but I also found love and kindness through most of them ! They took care of my dad ! Cici - Vinny- Tawanna- Diane - Kenisha - Bill -Lamont - Lola - and forgive me if I forgot some names - treated him good. They loved him. They fed him. They bathed him. They cut his hair. They trimmed his beard and mustache. He loved the ones who loved him. No place is perfect. I would have rather him had been here at home with me until he went to heaven - but the time there he was treated good. If you put your loved one here - I suggest a camera to watch all the time. It’s allowed. Go visit them more than once a month. Be with them while they’re still alive. Don’t just put them in there and forget them. Hospice came at the end of his life and treated him with respect and kindness. She and Kenisha were with him when he took his last breath. The Fairmont was always good to call me and update me on anything that happened to my dad. I will never regret the time he spent there - my only regret is that I couldn’t give him the care he needed.
