Autumn Wind Assisted Living Mineola

I was impressed by Autumn Wind Assisted Living Mineola. It was a very nice facility. I didn't find anything that I didn't like about it. Everything that was presented to me was impressive. It was clean and very nice on the inside. All the residents seemed to be happy. I didn't see anybody sitting over by themselves and not doing anything. They were actually in the dining area, getting ready to eat lunch, but they had activities going on before lunch. The rooms were nice. I didn't have any complaints. I was also impressed by the rooms. It was someplace I would like to retire, to be honest. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. You asked any kind of questions, they were able to answer them without any hesitation. They gave me a full tour of the place and didn't hold anything back. So, they were great. The structure of the building is very presentable. When you come into the foyer, it is very nice. There's a chandelier hanging in there when you come in. It didn't smell like urine or any of that type of stuff. It had a really good clean air smell to it. I didn't have any faults with them at all. I would have been happy for my mother to stay there. The rooms were decent size. You can bring your own bed, dresser, couch, and TV in there. There was a microwave in the room and the bathrooms were very big for them to get into.

We chose Autumn Wind Assisted Living Mineola. One of the main factors is the location and also the amount of care that they could provide Mom and the situation that she has. Mom was somewhere in between needing skilled nursing and assisted living. They offered multiple different types of levels of care. They coordinate what they can do to try to take care of business as best as possible. She has a one-bedroom apartment and it's very nice. It's laid out very well and has everything she needs. I have not tried the food but my mom says that it is very good. She's been very happy with what they fix and the alternatives if it's something that she doesn't want. They have a theater room when they have a special showing of something they can go to. They have folks who come in several times a week and do different things like bingo, art, and music. They also have therapy every day where they take them down and they do something to help them get exercise and to move around and stay active.

My dad is at Autumn Wind Assisted Living. We like the price. It's very personable and warm. They genuinely care, and they know my dad by name. My dad said the food was good. They have a weekly schedule of activities planned. It's very convenient, like 15 minutes away.

I toured Autumn Wind. I liked all of it. The people I talked with were nice and the facilities were fantastic. It is a little expensive, but they're all expensive. They showed me two different kinds of rooms. There's a room with a little kitchen area and stuff. And then they showed me a 1-bedroom; I liked that very well. It had a door to go outside into the hall. It had beautiful scenery. Everything was just so nice. They serve meals and take care of everything. When my son and I went, it was on a Saturday afternoon. As we were going in the door, a gentleman that works there came out with a group of men, and they all had fishing poles. They were going fishing. And the lady that is in charge of the activities was getting her group of women together to go someplace and do something. They do not have transportation on Sundays, though. I had asked about going to church, but they do have a minister that comes in once a week and gives a Bible study, and he comes in another day and holds a church service. They have three levels of care. On the lower one, they will come in, tie your shoes for you, and help you get dressed. They said that because I am a little unsteady, somebody will come in and sit with me while I take a shower. The staff was very, very knowledgeable and very pleasant. She answered my and my son's questions without any hesitation. She knew what she was doing. They gave me a sheet that listed their weekly menu on the meals. They said you can come to the dining room, or they will bring your meal to your room if you wish.

They take great care of our Mom. She has dementia and she cannot do anything independently. They are so patient and attentive. They also took care of Dad before he passed and he loved them!! I feel secure knowing Mom is in a safe place being treated with dignity.
