Disappointing treatment by Administrator, Tony Lacke. We wasted weeks of precious time under the false pretense that my father's medical records were being reviewed for the one bed that was available. He ignored all followup emails and phone calls from our family asking (begging!) for status update. He simply could have taken 2 seconds to respond to one of the emails saying the bed was no longer available, or my father wasn't a candidate, or SOMETHING, ANYTHING but no, not the decency of any response, we had false hope for weeks thinking we were still a candidate. During this already stressful time Mr. Lacke showed zero empathy. I hope sharing my story with as many people as I can will hold Mr. Lacke accountable and other families are not treated as poorly and fall victim to this lack of follow through at the Lydia Taft House.

My husband had a knee replacement July 2024. The physical therapy, occupational therapy and nursing staff were so exceptional and experienced that he chose to return last week to recover from his second knee replacement. The professional care that he received accelerated his recovery so he was able to return home and is capable of handling all of his daily needs. Patients are treated like family because the entire staff is very welcoming, caring and engaged. He was also very impressed as he witnessed the nursing home patients were treated with dignity, patience and love. We have strongly recommended Lydia Taft to our family and friends and wouldn't consider going anywhere else.

My 88 year old Mom just recently had a rehab stay for approximately 4 weeks. We can't say enough positive things about Lydia Taft House. They were kind, caring and top knotch rehab. They treated her the way you would want your loved one to be treated. We 100% recommend this place.

My Dad was recently discharged from Lydia Taft and we could not have been more pleased with the care! It was a very difficult time to have a loved one in a nursing home and we were so worried. We were unable to visit him in the traditional way so we stood outside his window. Everyone that works there smiles and is so helpful. From the nursing director Pam, the administrator Tony to everyone else. The housekeeper and laundry lady always said hello to my Dad. The medical care he received and the excellent rehab by Tracy's team really paid off. It was hard work for my Dad but they cheered him on and because of that he was able to come home. I have worked in many nursing homes in the area and know a good one when I see it. It's clean and cheery. And the staff is happy. I would highly recommend Lydia Taft to everyone I know!!
