My mom has been at Miller's Merry Manor in Hope for over 5 years. Mom is 11 years into an Alzheimer's diagnosis, and has multiple other medical conditions. I love the atmosphere at Millers. It seems like a home rather than a nursing home. The staff does a wonderful job of taking care of my mom. I can't thank them enough for their love and care.

come on... hospice was collaborating with us to get my mom in Millers Merry Manor. first day the nurse tried to give her the wrong medication. she deterioratied within weeks. and every day was a disaster. they wouldn't keep her clean, the never told each shift what was going on. they left her food on the bedside tray table knowing she couldn't get it. she was in her last few weeks of life. They couldn't keep her clean, bed sores, I came in on a weekend and she had dirtied her pants , I went to the nurses station and they said everyone was in the dining room. I said is there no one else that can clean her up.. finally two nursed took care of her. every day it was an issue, a battle to try to let her have her last few weeks comfortably. The only time they were proactive was if my sister was there. She finally had to push the nurse button. wait 45 to 50 minutes and someone came to see what the problem was. My sister told them she wished she could put them in the bed and ignore them like they were her. My mom was only there about a month before she passed away. If it hadn't been for one or two people and the wonderful hospice ladies I would be morning my mothers passing... as it is... I am so happy that she went to the Lord in such a peaceful way. my only suggestion to you If you use this nursing home is ... visit EVERY day... take notes! names! you are the one looking out for your loved one. never let anyone intimidate you... question everything and take notes and names.. once they are gone that is it... if you feel the need to move them.. Do IT! never be intimidated by ANYONE at a facility . you only have one loved one. if it is there time. I pray it is an easy transition. if not please. don't feel free to move them if this facility is not the right one. There is good and bad everywhere.. this one is bad in m my eyes. no one ever knew from one shift to the other what needed to be done with my mom. NO COMUNICATION you only have one loved one. they have many residences.. my main concern is the aids. not the nurses. check in, different times of days take notes, take names. don't be afraid to report issues. YOUR LOVED ONE IS DEPENDING ON YOU TO LET THEM GO IN PEACE. DONT LET THEM DOWN. NO QUESTION IS STUPID , ASK IT... TAKE CARE OF THEM AND HAVE NO REGRETS. YOU ARE THEIR VOICE AND ALL THEY HAVE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FOLLOW THROUGH EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO GO TO A HIGHER POSITION. DONT LET THEM DOWN. LET THEM GO IN PEACE IF IT IS THEIR TIME. GODS LOVE TO YOU ALL. in Jesus Name .... Amen!
