Plainview Assisted Living

Plainview Assisted Living is very nice. They take really good care of dad. He gets fed well and they find things for him to keep him busy. He enjoys doing group things and he likes it there. They have people come in and play music, they do exercises like throwing the ball around, and there's a person that comes in to do exercises with them. There are people that come in and do crafts, and there's somebody that comes in and cuts his hair or cuts his toe nails. The doctor comes in there, too. He's taken very well care of, and he doesn't even have to leave. With this Covid, he can't go anywhere anyway, and they won't let people in. They haven't had any cases, so they've been very fortunate. The staff is very nice, very helpful, and if you need some kind of help, they're always happy to help. My dad told me that he has a personal chef that makes him food. He loves the food there. It's clean, very nice, they decorate for all the seasons, and they include the people that live there. I can't say enough about the place. I'm very happy with it. Being that we have the Covid, it kinda limits things, but they do as much as they can with what they have. They still do crafts and stuff, and they bring in someone to do crafts with them. They paint pictures, they frost cookies, and decorate Christmas cookies. They keep them busy, they give them things to do to let them enjoy, so they're not just sitting there doing nothing.

My grandmother was very well taken care of, and we visited almost daily. This facility is small with only 20 bedrooms (even the small room was large enough for her to have her twin bed, a couple of end tables, a dining room table/with drop down leaf and two chairs, a recliner, a tv stand and tv, etc.). This small number of residents allows residents and their family members to become familiar with the staff and other residents. Staff is pleasant and caring. Residents are encouraged to take meals together in the dining room (but not forced to)...and sometimes when family members are present at a meal time...family members are invited to join them for their meal. Also, a separate eating area is available for family members/friends to bring something in to share, or to celebrate a happy event. Off-site activities: ball games, day-trip to Frankenmuth, etc. On-site activities: special music, church service, craft activities, hair salon, etc. One evening a week was "Take Out Night" with take-out food being brought in for residents. Also, if residents didn't want a particular meal being served, they could ask for something simple from the kitchen...grilled cheese, canned soup, cereal, etc. (Grandma did so when her stomach wasn't up to having certain things.) If I were to need assisted living care, I wouldn't hesitate to live at Plainview.

My wife has been in Plainview Assisted Living for eight months now. It's two miles from my house, so I can get there very quickly. I come and see my wife every day for an hour or two. Plainview Assisted Living is a fabulous place. I have never seen a better place. They have a beautiful yard and three different-sized rooms. The large rooms are very big. My wife is wheelchair-bound so she doesn't participate in any of the activities, but they have different musicians come in and exercise classes in the morning. The food is awesome and the pricing is ridiculously low. I love this place. Their employees are the most caring that you could ask for. The whole staff is absolutely impeccable.
