Vanadium Woods Village

I am a friend or relative of a resident

In the winter of 2010, the tiny town of Cuddy Pennsylvania experienced a town-wide power failure, and with temperatures plummeting to 10 degrees F., local senior citizens whose home heating had failed were picked up by the local Volunteer fire department and taken to The Vanadium Woods Assisted Living facility in Bridgeville, PA. about 4 miles away. My mother, who at the time was 79 years old, was one of the seniors that was brought there. She suffers from Diabetes and takes insulin daily. Her stay at the facility lasted for just under one week. The staff at Vanadium Woods provided her with a private room and three meals a day. There wasn't much care to ensure that her meals were "Diabetic friendly", but bowls of fruit and cookies were put out for snacks and all of the seniors were urged to eat from them. The facility's rooms were well kept and clean. All of the seniors brought there were able to spend time in the main communal room during the day, but were urged to return to their rooms after having spent a couple of hours there. Overall my Mother's experience there was acceptable.
