I came to say please don’t put your loved ones in this facility, the nurses who work here are physically assaulting the residents here I’ve witnessed it daily also they're verbally abusing the residents there aren’t any cameras where the residents are so I feel that’s why the nurses are getting away with abusing the residents a lot of employees have seen and witnessed the same thing I have & just haven’t spoken up about it I have proof I just don’t want to post out of respect for others family members that are currently here in the facility

If you put your loved one here just know all the blankets socks clothes wedding rings personal items will undoubtedly come up missing. Everyone wears others clothes and nothing comes back from the laundry!!! I don't care if items are marked with your loved ones name. Everything comes up missing! It smells so bad inside this place!

I recently had the opportunity to visit Wood Glen Alzheimer’s Nursing Home where my grandfather resided. I broke up the 3-star rating into two sections (facility and personnel). The facility has its pros and cons, leading me to give it a 1.5-star rating. Firstly, the front of the building feels quite small, and there isn’t much room for visitors to sit comfortably, which can be inconvenient. The wing my grandfather was placed in is exclusively for male residents, but unfortunately, it had a persistent odor that was quite unpleasant, reminiscent of urine and waste. This made the overall experience less than ideal. There is a sitting room where the men can watch TV, which is a nice touch. I noticed there was a courtyard area, although i didn’t go out there, it did seem it was utilized for outdoor activities. It great that residents can enjoy more time outside in a pleasant environment. As for my grandfather’s room, it’s a shared space with two beds and two nightstands. The setup is very minimal, which may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who appreciate a more personalized living space. Overall, the facility has an old nursing home vibe, lacking natural light and freshness. I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and support my family received from the nurses and administration at Wood Glen Alzheimer’s Nursing Home during my grandfather's stay there that is this portion I rate it at a 5-star. The intake meeting was attended by the Head Nurse, Head Dietitian, Head Therapist, and Head Financial Officer, all of whom were incredibly receptive to our questions and concerns. Their willingness to listen and provide detailed information made a world of difference for our family. During our visits, particularly at lunchtime, the nursing staff in my grandfather's wing demonstrated remarkable dedication and professionalism. It was clear that things were hectic, but they managed to provide excellent care to all the men in the unit. I noticed that despite the apparent busyness, the nurses were attentive and made sure we felt comfortable during our visits. While I only saw four nurses during our time there, it was evident that they were working tirelessly to meet the needs of the residents. I suspect the wing may be understaffed, as the nurses were consistently on the move, ensuring everything was handled efficiently. Their hard work did not go unnoticed, and I truly appreciate their commitment. One standout member of the team was Mindy, the Head Facility Nurse. After my visits, she graciously provided me with her personal number, encouraging me to reach out anytime with questions. Her follow-up after my grandfather’s passing demonstrated her genuine care; she checked in on me and my family to see how I was doing, which meant a lot during such a difficult time. Mindy's exceptional support and dedication were the primary reasons for my high rating. She exemplifies the compassionate and professional care that Wood Glen strives to provide. I wholeheartedly recommend this facility for anyone seeking quality care for their loved ones. Thank you to the entire team at Wood Glen for your outstanding service! In conclusion, while Wood Glen has some basic amenities and an amazing caring staff, improvements in cleanliness, space, and overall atmosphere would greatly enhance the experience for both residents and their families.

If it was up to me my mother wouldn't be in this facility I can say the place is halfway clean but it is not a good sign when you walk in the building and a majority of the staff are sitting around playing on their phones allow residents to wander in and out of room stealing from other people not to mention the ongoing issue with my mother's narcotics keep coming up missing and I'm not talking about just once or twice I'm talking about weeks and weeks and weeks in a row and you guys going to tell me that you can't afford to put TVs in the rooms for these people
