Kannapolis Family Care Home

Robin

My brother is at Kannapolis Family Care Home. I like that he has other people there to talk to, and I like that there are two people there all the time. He gets his medicine on time. He needs everything done for him, so they do everything for him. They seem to be very knowledgeable about their job, very caring, and very attentive. I don't have anything bad to say about the staff. I have not tasted the food, but I have seen my brother eat, and the food looks good. It's a lot better than where he was before. With regards to the building, it is deeply cleaned every two weeks. It always looks clean. However, I'll have to supply all his supplies like his diapers, wipes, and pads for the bed. And I didn't have to do that before. Nevertheless, everybody seems to be very calm, satisfied, and familiar with each other. They seem to be at peace.

Kannapolis Family Care Home is a house, and then they have many rooms for the patients. They seemed very nice over there. The rooms were a little small. They had six people, but the girls that were there were really nice. I'm a little more open to that type of a concept if my mom has to go into a facility where she needs to be helped more. They were very friendly and were very helpful. They really seemed to care about the ladies that were under their care. It's an older building, but they're making renovations in it. They're doing some renovations in the interior. They had just put down new floors, and they were on their way to updating things, and I liked that concept. I liked them, and I think that that type of facility is definitely good for people that might need a little more extra care than what you can get out in assisted living. These girls work so many days, and they're there pretty much 24 hours. The other young lady helps out, but she's basically their cook. They all eat family style, and I really like that concept, too.

Kannapolis Family Care Home was very small. There are only about 5 patients that they have. I like that it was very small, they got to know who the people were because they were right there with them all the time. I like that they all sat at the big table to eat and they sat in the den. They just had a birthday party for one of the residents, she was going through her presents while others were watching TV or walking around. They were all right there together. The person that normally gave tours wasn't there, so one of the ladies that was assisting with the patients helped me. And she did a great job, she took it upon herself to do it. She was very calm, very easygoing with the residents, and introduced them and showed us around. She was very good. There were some questions I had that she couldn't answer because that wasn't her normal job description, but she did the best she could. And then a woman who normally does it called me back later and apologized, and answered my questions, so that was nice. The place was very nice. There was no sign to the facility and there were no cars around it, so we weren't sure if we were in the right place or not. The lawn was a little unkempt, the grass was high, so we thought maybe it wasn't the place. But on the inside, it was very nice.

My husband was in Kannapolis Family Care Home, which had more of a home setting rather than a nursing home setting. It had 24/7 caregivers and they only had three residents there. It was very clean and I have nothing bad to say about it at all. I've never personally tasted the food, but it always looked good. They said they did activities with them, but I don't know how much. I think the value for the money is excellent because I did a lot of checking around and it was fine.
