Everyone was friendly! My tour of Paintbrush was a good experience. Everyone was very friendly and the place was very nice. It was just a bit more expensive than what we were looking for at the time.
They need more staff! We chose this community because when you walk in, it's like walking into your home, it is warm and inviting. The apartment that my loved one is in is very nice. The staff is excellent but they are short in staff. They also lack in organization and I believe that is also because they don't have enough people and it is a fairly new community. The food is terrible. I like the locations and the positive atmosphere, but they have some improvements to make.
Paintbrush - A nice place for mom My mother has been living at Paintbrush in a lovely apartment for a month now. The staff is very attentive and friendly. It's nice to be welcomed with a friendly smile each time my family and I visit. Facility is very clean and well maintained. Food is great too! It's nice to be able to have a nice meal with mom in the dining room.
Could use a dietitian and evening activities. I have really enjoyed having my mother at Paintbrush Assisted Living, she's doing well. However, she is diabetic and they have not provided a diabetic food menu item for her. Her Dr has it on her orders as well that she needs to be on a diabetic diet. There is another resident having the same issue as well. There are not very many activities, especially in the evening. After the activities director leaves for the day, the residents are very bored. I think this place could use a d... read more
I went to visit at 1:30pm, and asked the front desk if we could visit in the main lounge area. [name removed], the receptionist said that area was only for Assisted Living. [name removed], the new MC Director, came to the desk and said we could. She said my friend had eaten her lunch & desert and was ready for me. I went to the MC side there she sat, with her head on her chest, white as a ghost, her food untouched. One of the aids said my friend had been "playing with her food" for 1 1/2 hours. Her food was untouched. I have... read more
We were looking for memory care that would provide comradery, and both physical & mental stimulation. We were impressed with the beauty & cleanliness of Paintbrush, and the variety of activities for its Residents. At first, the aids were engaged in the care of the Residents, but after a short time, there was a definite change. The aids no longer acted as a "team", many of the MC Residents walked around like Zombies, and there no activities. The Executive Director was on leave, the Memory Care Director was on leave. The Activ... read more
Since my friend has been taken out of Paintbrush, she has gotten color back in her face, is talking and making sense again, is holding up her head, re-learned how to feed herself, and is happy and full of life. Her dementia is still very obvious, and still requires a lot of care, but she is a happy and healthy individual. Please think twice about putting your relative's life in the hands of Paintbrush; they don’t care about their Residents. My friend's daughter saved her mother's life when she took her out of Paintbrush.
Our experience was negative, our loved one became dehydrated and fell and broke his hip. Because of the dehydration it resulted in him being moved to memory care where he had to be reminded to drink his water.
Real Concerns (This is honest) UnderstaffedClean and well kept. A little pricey though. Owners seem to be more interested in their profits than hiring adequate & trained staff. Is there an RN on duty? How well is the staff trained to dispense meds? In an emergency or should one of the residents fall, or a fire erupts what happens? Do they just let my loved one fall or [Removed] because the owners don't want to add more staff because they want to collect it all? [Removed]! The State has been called numerous times on Paintbrus... read more
