Get directionsI have a family friend who sent her elderly mother here to the memory care unit. The care was horrible. My friend came every day because she didn’t feel like the staff were looking after her mother properly. They said they would check on her x times per day- she set up cameras in her mother’s room and found none of this was true. She stayed overnight with her mom a couple times and woke up to find ALL OF THE NIGHT STAFF ASLEEP. One time her mother fell and was on the ground for 2 HOURS with no help. Towards the very end of h... read more
The memory care unit at Pearl Street does not appear to be equipped to handle people who are entering the advanced stages of Alzheimer's or dementia. They promote the fact that someone can move into their assisted living and then continue out their time in memory care if needed.

Our family was very mislead when it came to their capabilities of being able to handle our loved ones memory care. They were not able to meet the expectation's and they had no intention of being able to follow through with the promises they made us.

Placing 2 Seniors in a one bedroom space account their financial situation is not kindness, its maximizing profit. [Name removed] you should be ashamed! After bleeding people of their life savings then casting them aside is just wrong. This will be blogged across the internet for the public to decide. - This is a heartless assisted living facility.
Not a great place. A lot of turn over the with staff. None of them seem to be happy, seems like the staff doesn't want to be there. There are so many better places to put your parents in.
Any positive review is done by LCB, this place is so cold to the residents. Management and all the help from Longwood Place is gone is less than a year. Do not bring your parents here. There are so many places that are more caring. This company is in it just for the money. STAY AWAY
Not a good place. Big turn over with the help. Longwood Place was a warm feeling with the employees. This company is so cold to the residents. The management and all the help from Longwood Place are all gone. You have to ask yourself why. Stay away from this place
New management. All the Longwood staff has left. Major turnover with the help. The new management is cold and [removed]. Upper management don't seem to care for the residents all all.
