I had my husband, Art, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's dementia, admitted to a memory care facility that claimed they could care for him, but could not. Shortly after he was there, they requested 24/7 private aide service because he tried to escape and was very agitated. The Nursing Director and staff didn't offer me much assistance or hardly communicated with me for 5 weeks, other than to tell me that this was not going to work out. I knew I would have to find another place, but did not know where. It was such a stressful time!<br>I then heard about Lakeland Manor ALF. I met with the Director at the facility and she came out the next day to assess my husband. She could not believe I still had private aide service and she already had a plan of care to help me and my husband out. We moved him to Lakeland Manor and the level of care was like night and day compared with the old facility. The Director is very involved with the care of her residents and does give continual teaching to her staff. The staff is also very kind and caring, and seem to enjoy their jobs. Many of them have worked there for a long time. For the first time in 5 weeks, I finally felt comfortable leaving my husband in memory care!<br>If you are looking for a fancy facility, I would not go there. But if you are looking for good care, kindness, and safety for your loved one, I would highly recommend it!
