Family Loving Kare S3

The law is quite clear that care homes must put the well being of their residents first. This doesn't happen at this place, not even close. Carol suffered a head injury, and after a hospital stay and rehab stay at an actual care facility, she was doing amazingly well. Those of us who visited her during this time were sure she would be coming home. Instead she was sent to this place where she has been locked up for months, not allowed a phone, not allowed to go outside, and not allowed to have her friends visit, the very things that would enable her to continue her recovery. She has to be seriously deteriorating mentally because of how she is being treated. Anyone would. Unfortunately, the person who pays these people wants Carol held prisoner like this. Obviously, doing right by Carol isn't nearly as important as doing whatever it takes to keep the checks coming in. I do not know how any human being can treat another like this.

I toured Family Loving Kare S3. It's a home that's been converted. It was very good, and the staff was very, very nice and helpful in giving me a tour of the home. They had some activities. They had a dining room. They had their private room and they had a backyard where you could go sit outside. They had laundry and they made all the meals. It was a very homey place. They only had a few people there because it's not a large place.

Family Loving Kare S3 was clean and orderly. The staff was very friendly. They did not have any type of social activities planned for their residents, and I thought that was a little off-putting. You would think they would try to have a social engagement for the residents, but they didn't have a lot. The staff who toured me around, I thought she was great. They have a common and private rooms with televisions and internet. It wasn't anything spectacular. It was average.

I've visited Family Loving Kare S3. Everyone looked to be taken care of, but my feeling was that the only availability was substandard. The room was very small, it was very dark, and the paint was peeling off the walls. There's nothing good about it, so I wouldn't have put anyone there. But some of the rooms that we saw were great. We saw some rooms that were beautiful, well-decorated, and fine. This looked just like they had an extra room. So just to get somebody else in there, they were going to have somebody come in, so it wouldn't work for our purposes. The staff was very nice and caring, they seemed to be busy taking care of the residents that were there. We didn't try the food, but we saw the menu, and they had really good menus. And the people said that the food was really good, there were still some ladies sitting around the table, and they said that the food was good. They posted the menus so you could see exactly what was going to be coming up for the week. They had a nice TV and some people were watching TV while they were eating at tray tables. They said that they bathe the patients or the residents two times a week, which is good, and they have someone that does their hair and takes care of their nails and they give them manicures.

My grandfather moved into Family Loving Kare S3. They do everything from bathing and showering to feeding. The staff members are wonderful, very attentive and on top of it. They're very family-oriented, so they're super nice to us, as well as my grandfather. It is a house, so the rooms are not ginormous. The main area is a lot bigger where they come together and eat. The living room is spacious. They can sit out there and visit. Everything is very well kept. The living atmosphere is very warm. They always decorate for every single holiday, which is fun. The facility owner lives right behind the facility, so she's always present. They try to make sure they have juice or water for them. They try to rotate the food to give them a variety. They have an outdoor sitting area where the residents can go out if they like. They can watch TV or read if they want.

My dad moved into Family Loving Kare S3 last month. It seems fine. It's clean. They're really sweet to the residents. They bathe him. They make sure that he gets fed, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They keep him clean. He seems to be doing well. Everything looks fine. The staff is precious, very sweet. They've been very loving. They get them out. They have snacks, they can watch TV. As far as big activities, I think since it's a small home, there's not all, and some of the patients seem rather involved as far as their care. I don't think there's a lot of room for activities, but there are televisions available. They can come out of their rooms whenever they want to. They can visit with other residents. I think there are only about 10 residents maximum in the place. It's a very small home, but it's very comfortable. They decorate for the holidays, and they make sure everybody gets to see the pretty things for the holidays.
