Advocatefor your loved ones who are here. They have a few great staff members, but the majority are outsourced and don’t have a clue about resident needs or care. Many things were not done or done wrong and they won’t answer a phone call after business hours. They didn’t even send condolences about the death of my father after he was there for a year.

My son has been living in a nursing facility for six years. Recently he transitioned to Park View. Today we took him home for Thanksgiving. Today was the first day in six years he asked “can Simone take me back HOME.” He has never wanted to live in a nursing home but needs to for his care. I am beyond thankful for everything the staff do to provide him with excellent care. He must really like it to call it home! Thank you! -Judy

I can't thank you enough for the care you showed my mother (Betty Spaghetti) these last 11 months. Being over a thousand miles away from her was difficult but I knew she was in good care. No matter when I called, someone always gave me an update and even took a cordless phone to her when she couldn't use her cell phone anymore. When I came to visit her room was clean and she always smiled and talked about what a wonderful job you all did. Thank you again for everything you did for her, and continue to do for your residents.

Staff is friendly, my grandpas needs are being met. We had some challenges when he first went in so recommend being very involved initially as family but typical nursing home. No complaints

First let me state that there are some exceptional excellent people who work here. One gal lives across from my Mom's rental house, who is a gem! They also have some excellent RN's but are short staffed. Some of the RN's stop by after working at the Loring Hospital. And some of the LPN's and nursing assistants are great. But they are currently and always short staffed! They are a few individuals (aids) who are there for nothing more than a paycheck. It requires a patient and compassionate individual to work in this type of environment. Even though short staffed, they shouldn't be hiring incompetent employees or ones who simply don't care about the elderly. My mother has, at times, found Dad covered in feces due to a colonoscopy. It's not a fun job but when Dad is covered in his bodily excrements, this causes rashes, sores, and all his clothes have to be changed and he has to be bathed. The odor in the room is extremely noticeable. If Mom wasnt there so frequently, I wonder how much worse it would be, as she has to go contact someone to address an issue. Another example is everyone has an emergency button to push. A lady pushed her button and it took 20 minutes before anyone arrived. Like she said "if I had been choking on something I wouldn't have lasted 20 minutes". Cramming 2 Male strangers into a room about the size of my full bathroom at home and charging $6,000 apiece, or $12,000 for both residents, per month is outrageous for the services provided. There is only enough room for 1 visitor. $6,000 would be extremely high if only 1 patient in that room. But at least you could have a COUPLE of chairs to sit on. Some of his personal effects have gotten mixed up with other residents or lost completely. The elderly care facility in like Wall Lake is so much better. Finally, they are extremely slow in helping and assisting in paperwork. Things that should be performed on one shift are quite often left for the shift coming on work. Better supervision is needed . I don't see this being "short staffed" ever changing. If your short staffed, then the services provided are not as good as they could be either and the cost should be reduced accordingly. In closing, it only takes a couple of employees to make life somewhat inhumane for the elderly whom when younger, contributed so much of their own personal time to other individuals, family, and the communities they resided in. I can't blame the employees because they are hired and trained by management. If your going to be salary and are management, you work the hours required! If you can't do that, then get an hourly job. I worked 12 to 14 hour days, 6 to 7 days a week. Because I didn't want my employees working those types of hours. To the caring and loving employees that do work here, I sincerely apologize for this review. Your angels in my eyes. To the ones that this hits home with, find employment elsewhere.
