We are having a good experience here. It has a small home feel with consistent staff caring for my family member. She is being seen my OT, PT and ST. SMP South's calendar is full of activities throughout the day that all their residents can participate in regardless of physical or cognitive challenges. The food looks really good. When I had supper there once it was really good. I have popped in at random times during the day. Sometimes my family member is in her room other times she is in the common area. The staff have gotten to know her and lets her call the shots for what she wants to do and where she wants to be. When staff approach her, she smiles.

My aunt had been living there for 2-3 yrs. They have wkly. mass there Wednesdays @ 2:00pm. Priests from Nativity officiate & Deacon Jim is there alot to visit, administer communion & shepherd the residents. Very compassionate Deacon. Food is o.k. As w/ all service jobs in F-M area & over the tri-state regions; seems to be an increase in help wanted/needed & a huge turnover w/ staff, too !!! They do have some good staff. Directors say that the residents come first, but hear differently from the food service/support staff, floor care...too many supervisors @ desks & not enough employees to actually do the tasks.
