The Landings of Albemarle

Amy

My mom will be moving into The Landings of Albemarle. It was built and was supposed to open, but COVID happened. So, it just opened 2 years ago, and the facility was beautiful. I had an aunt that was a millionaire and her facility was extremely expensive, but this one is right there with it. The dining facility was strictly for dining, unlike in other places where the dining room was a group activity facility. Each room had a shower that was no step completely, just a walk-in. In each hallway, there was a huge bathroom that had a huge shower and a huge walk-in tub. So, if a resident either wants the staff to bathe them or they want to have a bath, they have that option. They had an outdoor courtyard in the back that had lighting so that in the evenings they could sit out there and enjoy the fresh air. They had a physical fitness room, and I know that they offered physical fitness classes. If there was an emergency, they had the medical staff for assisted living. It was just a refreshing place. It looked like a place that I'd like to stay in and have someone feed me and the doctor comes and sees me. This young lady had a grandfather who was a resident, and that's the room that she showed me. She was knowledgeable because she asked if my mother was military and I said no, but I am. And so she told me, for the future, what's available for me if I ever choose to select them. Everywhere I looked was clean. It looked like a living room, a family room lodge with a big fireplace, couches, chairs, and lamps. It was very welcoming. It wasn't sterile.

We chose The Landings of Albemarle. My in-laws are now in assisted living. It's a new place, and apparently, everyone is very friendly. The food is really good; I'm hearing that from my really picky mother-in-law. The people are nice. At the last place they were at, they were struggling to get a bath every other day. They had to beg somebody to come and bath them because they were short-staffed. This place is not short-staffed. They have some things, but my in-laws have not been involved yet as they have recently moved and gotten settled in. They have someone that will take care of hair and nails, and they have a library.

My mother-in-law has moved into The Landings of Albemarle. It's excellent. They are good to their tenants and very attentive. She's adjusting, but I think she likes it. It's brand new, so everything's immaculate. The food, I would say it's decent, it's not the highest quality. They offer salads every day, and they offered two vegetables and a meat, like chicken or country fried steak or something like that with tea, water and coffee. They have a salon, a laundry room, and they have plenty of lobbies. They have a dining hall, game rooms, and plenty of parking. They're getting ready to put in a fishing pier with a gazebo. They're still growing so they're adding things. They offer card games, bingo, puzzles, arts and crafts, potting, and flowering. I like the privacy, and I love the rooms. I think they're pretty roomy and clean. I like that it's small, so they get a lot of attention if they need it. They have transportation for their tenants, even on the independent side, so that if they have to go to the doctor or whatever, they have that available.
