I wouldn’t send my loved ones here. Takes forever to reach someone to talk about important health issues. Nursing staff always say they are busy and refused to write down a call back number saying she doesnt have a pen on her 🤷‍♀️

If you’re reading the negative reviews about this place—believe them. Every single one. I wish I had. My mom is currently a patient here, and what should have been a simple, positive visit turned into one of the most frustrating experiences I’ve had with any facility. I took time off work specifically to spend the day with her and finally get her outside for a walk, something she’s been looking forward to instead of being stuck inside all day. I was denied. Why? Because she didn’t have an “out on pass” signed by a doctor. Now, I understand policies exist for a reason, and I was respectful of that. But here’s the problem: my father was able to take her out for a walk just two weeks ago using a pass that a nurse wrote up for him. Same patient, same situation—completely different outcome. So which is it? Is this policy real, or does it just depend on who you talk to that day? I even escalated this to the supervisor on duty, explained the situation, and showed proof of the previous pass. Still denied. No flexibility. No effort to help. Just a flat “wait until Monday when the doctor is here.” Let that sink in—I was told my mom couldn’t step outside for a short walk on a nice day because of paperwork inconsistency, despite clear evidence that exceptions had already been made. I spent over an hour going back and forth for something so basic and humane, only to be shut down. It’s not just about the policy—it’s the lack of consistency, compassion, and common sense. Patients here aren’t just charts and rules; they’re people who deserve dignity and small moments of normalcy. Do better.

At first my mother was very good here, and the service was good, but recently it was very bad, it was terrible, four people lived in one room, and my mother lived in front of the toilet. I came over several times to ask the nurses and nurses to change my mother's diapers , I'm ignoring me or saying I'm going to get off work. I'll wait here for 2 hours and no one will come. I'll report on such a thing, how do you know?

My mother recently passed, but spent the last 5 weeks of her life in palliative care at New Franklin. From day one, we were given all the info needed to make sure the rules and expectations of her stay were clearly communicated to us. We found the staff to be warm and courteous. Any questions we had regarding my mother was met with staff (from the Admin, nurses, personnel that keeps my mom clean), that are both knowledgeable and caring. This means so much to us who are worried about wanting my mom to have the best of care especially when she is unable to communicate herself. We have nothing but positive experiences at New Franklin. The staff are so warm and efficient in helping my mom and us. We are so grateful to New Franklin. By the way, the facility is kept very clean!

Staff is very caring. They are always helpful & they go out of their way to make the patients happy. This is a really great facility! If there is ever an issue, the staff is always able to handle it. The administrator is also very attentive & makes sure that the building is running smoothly. I highly recommend this facility!!!
