My dad stayed at Shady Knoll Health Care Center. He had Alzheimer's, so we needed a high level of care. They were wonderful. The facility was extremely clean, the staff was very caring. And if there's anything going on, they'd call me. My dad enjoyed the food. They had a lot of community activities, like singing, which was probably top of my dad's list. They also did a lot of memory kinds of things, physical exercises, and he participated to the extent that he could. They also have therapy dogs which was wonderful for people with Alzheimer's. My dad passed last month.

PT Joe is wonderful, a small handful of CNA's can be wonderful. But all around the level of incompetence is astonishing. Call bells not answered. Times i walk in and its empty. Nit a nurse in sight. Social workers there act like its their first day on the job. Literally dropped the ball every time. I wouldn't let them care for a pet hamster going forward.

I was a patient at this "place" a year ago !!! I have a serious allergy to any type 0f "MILK-TYPE" product !!! They were carefully made aware of my problem.!!!!!!!!!! THEY COULD HAVE CARED LESS !!!!!!!!!!! ALLMOST ALL of the food they provided had a form of 'lact' in it !!!!!" ( lactic, lactate, etc. !!!!!!! ) The nurse, or whatever she was) said, "WE CAN'T AFFORD A SPECIAL DIET JUST FOR HIM !!!! I would not recommend " Shady Knoll" to anyone, not even for a 'dog kennel !!!!!!...

My husband was a veteran.... the VA got him into Shady Knoll for hospice care.... I have never seen such loving caring people in my life. They totally respected his needs right to the end.... I am so grateful to all of them... God bless them all who cared for him...

Do NOT put your loved one in this facility. The call bells are not answered in a timely manner; usually, it takes anywhere from 45 min. to 2 hours before they respond. The food is terrible. Put a spoon in Cream of Wheat cereal and the WHOLE bowl cereal and all come up with the spoon. They do NOT care for the individual patient's needs. The food is cold. The packaging is not opened for those that need help. The tray is not put within reach of patients that are unable to reach it to pull it closer...
dreadful place

This is the WORST place you could EVER EVER put anyone. Rooms ALWAYS smell of urine, sheets NOT changed unless you ask, Patient care is HORRIBLE - they DO NOT pay attention to meds OR if someone is on a particular diet, needs of a Patient are NOT there. They are SO short staffed (is always their excuse) BUT fact is...... the people there just have that job to have a job NOT because they want to take care of OR even care about the Patients. My Mother walked into the facility FINE - some me...

I recently visited this facility and as I got on the elevator a staff member told me to get off as she was loading the elevator with tables to take upstairs the other elevator was out of service. So I had to wait until the elevator returned in order to go up to the 3rd floor. Great customer service

Everyone there seemed to enjoy it even the workers. THe workers really put the time and effort into making everyone happy and safe. It was nice to see one of my relatives taken care of in such an enjoyable environment. I stongly suggest this place to anyone who is looking for a nursing home for their loved ones. THe local elementary school visits on Halloween in their costumes while the elderly people get to watch.The food there is my biggest complaint it was a step above of cafeteria food but i...

my mother has been a resident for almost a decade. I have visited once or twice a week. The nursing home has very good staff; they are dedicated to the patients and are very good when working with the residents. There have been some uneven spots, however, with some of the doctors. My mother was given heavy anti depression drugs because she would not eat. When I visited periodically with cookies, she would happily eat anything I gave her. It ocurred to me that she might not like the food. W...

My mother stayed At Shady Knoll to recuperate from a broken leg. All rehab was done on premises. The well educated/trained staff treated her with such compassion. My mom being younger than most residents, had a hard time adjusting. The staff was wonderful with that transition and making her comfort a priority. Her room was cleaned every day by a very pleasant housekeeper.
