I called this place and was in shock to hear of the amount you have to pay for an entrance fee. Wow I was referred by an agency that said this was an affordable place for seniors and seniors with disabilities. This is false advertisement because of their prices. I reached out to the agency that referred us to this place and there is going to be many agencies that are going to look into this.

I have never been inside but I am a matron with a transportation company so I pick up and drop off the elderly and disabled and elderly. The workers seem very nice and the place seems very clean. Update : February 5th 2023. The place IS clean. I used the bathroom once and the workers are nice but a lil high on their horses, a bit stuck up but hey. They are doing a difficult job working with the handicapped.

Went to Fieldstone. Aide was horrible. Inattentive to patients. A patient was calling out for help and aide was on her phone. I went to her and told her a patient was calling and she said thank you and continued to ignore and went back on her phone. Very disturbed to see how our elderly are treated in these fancy expensive places
