My mom is doing much, much better at Maple Woods. She has adapted very well. The staff is very friendly. However, the food could be improved.

I visited this facility
My grandmother stayed at this facility after her stroke. The facility is beautiful and therr are many amenities for the elderly. Their is a big living area for all the elderly to gather and socialize or watch t.v. The facility was kept clean and everyone was very calm and relaxed. Seemed like it was a nice quiet place for anyone to live in. However, the staff was a bit rude. You are not greeted as soon as you come in. You have to go out of your way to look for the staff and they seemed bothered if you asked them for anything. There were no bilingual staff members which made it difficult for my grandmotherwho only speaks Spanish to understand them. My grandmother was unable to speak for a while after he stroke and tried communicating by hand gestures but the staff didn't understand her and she didn't understand them. Plenty of times I came to her and she had not been changed or fed. It was very upsetting when the staff answered that they didn't know what she wanted so they basically ignored her. Overall the place looks nice but the staff needs to work on their skills. Be friendlier and they need to hire people who can communicate with the elderly living there.

I am a friend or relative of a resident
I have had a generally positive experience with this facility. My grandmother lived there recently after living alone for several years. The staff was very welcoming and made sure that she and the family were aware with the variety of services the facility had to offer. When my grandmother needs help, they are quick to respond and always provide an adequate level of service in order to meet her needs and ensure her safety. Several activities are available to residents, and the food is good. My biggest complaint is the extra cost associated with several of the tasks that one would consider to be a part of the rent (e.g. escorting to the dining room, medication reminders, etc.) The rent is quite expensive.
