My parents moved into Karen Acres Healthcare Center. The employees seem to be very caring about the residents. I like that my parents are in the same room, and they have a private bath. The rooms are fine. The building was probably built in the seventies, and the age shows. That's not a high priority for the family, so that's fine. They have a large room. They can put some furniture in it (like two single beds). They have a TV on the wall. My parents seem to be fine with the food. It has a positive atmosphere. I saw the residents watching TV in the early afternoon, and some were out in the dining room. My parents are on private pay. It's much less costly than other places that we looked at.

My mom is staying in Karen Acres Health Care Center. They have several different wings for different care types. They've got one big community room where everybody gathers for their meals, or for any of the activities that they have. They do have a section that's kind of set off to the end that's more of a quiet section. There's sofas and they can sit by the windows. The employees are all very attentive. They're very caring, very personable, and they keep in touch with me as to what's going on with her, and how she's doing. It's a small facility, so they're very well staffed, and everybody is so friendly. Mom participates in some of the activities. She enjoys playing bingo with them. Some of the other activities, she just likes to sit and watch, and compliment everything everybody else is doing.
