I visited this facility

I visited this facility while searching for a nursing home for my father. William Hill Manor, (WHM) is located on Dutchman's Lane in Easton, MD and was established in 1981. WHM is approximately 2 miles from Easton Memorial Hospital, giving me greater comfort in case of emergencies. On-site healthcare is available to residents in order to provide for my father's needs. William Hill has levels of care from assisted living to skilled nursing care, comprehensive to rehabilitation services. William Hill Manor is designed as a CCRC or continuing care residential residential community where cottages are scattered throughout William Hill's large campus like facility. William Hill is designed for individuals aged 60 and up with home maintinence, housekeeping, meals and lawn care provided. A nice feature of WHM is a large building containing many apartments which offer independent living features with the option to interact with those who are living close by. WHM has doctors and specialists with offices located around the perimeter of their grounds, making access to health care very convenient. The largest of the buildings or facilities on campus is called the Manor House which has an auditorium, sunroom, library, cocktail lounge and a living room. WHM offers fine dining with chef prepared four course meals. The food that is offered at WHM may be ordered from a cafe or prepared and served individually within apartments and cottages. Food is delivered to those residents who require this. The menus change with each season. This provides a community like appeal to residents. Monthly resident association meetings are held in order to keep the residents involved with their standard of living which is a comfort, knowing that my dad will have a voice with his living arrangement. Another nice aspect is the cottage space designed to allow couples to live together with some degree of privacy. Musical groups, exercise, painting and aquatics classes along with excursions to the theatre, concerts, movies, gallery exhibits and shopping are among the activities offered at WMH. Many of the rooms in the common area at WHM have a rustic, traditional flavor which seems to appeal to the residents of WMH. Another comforting trait that's offered is the 24 hour nursing care and the specialized rehabilitation services that are available to those who need them.
The staff at WHM can be described as caring and compassionate. All of the staff at WHM is required to maintain their skills through an ongoing training process. Patient to staff ratio with assisted living is 1 staff member for every 8 residents. WHM appears to be conscious of state guidelines regarding having an adequate number of staff to care for the residents.
