St Ann's Home for Aged

I am a friend or relative of a resident

For the most part, the nursing home seems good. The staff is friendly to me when I visit and my grandmother does not complain about them when I talk to her. The nurses are usually cheerful and give her medication on time. They also address any issues she has. The nursing assistants are gentle when handling my grandmother and take good care of her. The only thing she really complains about is the food. I tried talking to the dietary manager and he politely explained that they need to prepare their foods a certain way because many people cannot eat certain things and it is difficult to make individual meals with over 150 residents. They allow me to bring my grandmother food whenever I visit though. They also have an activity program which my grandmother enjoys. Every day they either play a game, such as bingo, or take them on trips. Every year, they also have parties, usually in the summer and near Christmas. It is nice that they invite family members and we get to see my grandmother very happy. The nursing home is not very fancy, but they keep it very clean and do their best to keep my grandmother happy and entertained.
