I would recommend you find another community. The quality of care and the staff ratios are awful and these are some of the reason I suggest another community for your loved one. They didn't have activities for memory care residents. The only thing they did was watch tv.
My husband, Don Meade, was in your facility for two weeks in [date removed], on several occasions, the nurse or nurses' aide was very slow to responded for ca" help"! One of the nurses was given an order from the Dr. for a hemoglobin test to be done that day...I personally tracked down the nurse on duty and gave it to him by hand!

The new director leaves much to be desired. The bottom line is all that matters. When facility was “The Blake” with [name removed] as Ditector it was amazing!

No Sunday worship services - [name removed], the director said we are no longer welcome or permitted to visit and share the Lord’s supper with residents, etc. last I asked there were no RNs and only one LPN (although the helpers and PAs call themselves “nurses”) in staff for 125++ residents!!... read more
My brother and sister in law toured this community while I was looking at others. They felt this was not an option at all for our mother it had too much of a nursing home feel and environment too it. It was not appealing to them.
Business response:
We are so sorry to hear of your experience. We have worked exceedingly hard to change that, and hope to show you the improvements!
From the moment we arrived with our mom, we knew we had made a mistake! We decided to give this facility a try, but as time went on, we witnessed many residents being neglected and uncared for. Our mom suffered a stroke, and we were not notified until days later. We will forever regret our decision to place her at the Blake. The workers were uncaring and unconcerned about her care. Thank goodness we had a hospice team in place.
