My brother moved to LECOM Senior Living Center. He's living in a whole house that has three bedrooms. He's right now in there alone. He needed 24-hour care. He has a housekeeper and a nurse who comes in, and somebody does his cooking and cleaning for him. It's got a front yard and a back yard. Porches on either side. He's not allowed to smoke inside but he is allowed to smoke outside on the porch, which was a big thing for him too. He couldn't have any animals so he had to get rid of his cat. When you first walk in, you walk into this great big kitchen that has everything, a stove and a refrigerator. These people also go grocery shopping for the residents. They just asked him what he would like to eat and they went grocery shopping for him. Then came down to the little hall and there's a door to the basement. On the right side, there's a bedroom that has a little closet, a smaller bedroom and then you come out of that, there's the bathroom. There's a great big living room, with 55 inch TV on the wall. Cable and internet are included. Everything is included in his rent. He pays $893 a month. There's a bigger bedroom which they just moved him into because the other guy wasn't coming back. There's a basement downstairs, a big basement, and a garage that he can store his stuff in. It's a nice house. Hardwood floors. It's a beautiful house. I've met some of the staff. They come in and they play games with them and play cards and do things with them. They did some kind of crystal thing the other day. He likes it.

My father was a resident at LeCom Senior Livg. He told me he was so miserable there. We wanted to move him and we’re about to then He passed away on Sept 24. We tried several times to pick up his belongings and we were told each time. That they couldn’t find his stuff 3 days later. We were “allowed” to pick up his things. His wallet was empty and now his credit card bill has several cash advances that were taken out with his credit card and online gambling charges. Clearly someone stole his cre...

First and foremost I will preface this by saying on the outside as well as inside Lecom facility itself is beautiful. The private rooms are wide and spacious, it's well decorated, and exceptionally clean! However beauty is only skin deep... What you see is a facade. Lecom a facility that owns numerous colleges in Pennsylvania New York as well as Florida and also owns their own radio station bowling Alley theater and multiple other endeavors seems to fall short when it comes to actual care. Makin...

LECOM Senior Living Center was beautiful and new. It had a cafe, and snack stations on each floor. It was high rise and very modern, and the rooms were all private. It was definitely beautiful, modern, and new, but to me, it looked sterile and blank. It didn't have a homey feel. They had common areas that had coffee and tea, but I didn't see any residents up and about. The staff seemed a little disorganized. We had an appointment, but nobody seemed to know that we were coming. I didn't find the ...

I pick Millcreek Manor for my mom and dad because it is a learning institution and part of the LECOM (Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine) Health Service System. They have several student nurses and interns that visit the facility as well as the doctors. It is attached right to the hospital. So if they have to move into a hospital, it is not a matter of transporting them to another location; they just can actually wheel them on their bed, if necessary, right into the hospital's emergency r...

My dad, fred, was a resident for 18 months. He received excellent care in this modern, small facility where everyone on staff knew all the patients. The food was plentiful, nutrious and appealing. I was able to visit at any time and enjoyed getting to know other residents who interacted with my dad. Really enjoyed frank. Rember the day they made doughnuts. My dad, fred and frank were supposed to be putting powdered sugar on them at the end of the assembly line. However, they were eating them...

The staff is happy. I think it's very important for happy residents to have a happy staff. The residents are sensitive to moods and it can affect them thoroughly if there's a negative atmosphere. The same is true for a positive, happy atmosphere, which this facility has. The residents are happy as well and when they're not, the staff are quick to tease and joke them into a better mood. I have a friend at this facility whose grandson right him every week with a knock-knock joke. And every w...
