Assisted Living Communities in Lewiston, ID

"Brookdale Lewiston was clean, the staff seemed very nice and appropriate, and the rooms were a nice size. The activity schedules that they had there were great and the dining area was great. They have activities monthly. They have them for spring, summer, fall, winter, they have activities according to that, and the celebration of holidays, and they bring in small groups that sing and have their instruments. They offer a church service that's non-denominational on Sundays and other group activities according to particular religions as well that they bring in are appropriate. They have tours like they will take them on a tour of Lewiston, and there's several of them offered around here up the river a little bit. The person that gave me the tour was upfront about staffing shortages and how they were handling that. She was just very friendly and easy to talk to."

"My mom is at Regency Pullman. We had a very positive experience in touring the facility and understanding all that they had to offer for our mom and the type of assistance that she would be getting, especially in the early days of transitioning her. We were getting her from the hospital over to there, and she had been very, very ill, so we were kind of worried that they might not be able to give her the type of assistance that she needed in the beginning, but they did, and now she is doing so much better. Her baseline has improved substantially. She goes to all the meals and events. She was coming from a place where she had been completely isolated, and now, where she is, is like a part of a community. I think her outlook has improved so much. Her attitude and her sleep are improving. She has gained weight. She was down to like 98 pounds, and she is now over 100 pounds, so she likes the food. She is really, really doing well there, so we're very happy. In the first few days, we were a little concerned because it was during the holidays, and so I think they didn't have the full staff there. When we moved her in, we signed her up to get help with showers and get help with medication and all of that, and it took a while for them to get into the routine of helping her. They put her in a room that was previously like a storage unit, and so a lot of the housekeeping staff weren't clued into the fact that this was no longer a storage unit, and that it was now a resident in there. The first couple of weeks, they didn't come in and clean her apartment or change her sheets. We had to really stay on them to make sure that they knew, "We got somebody in there, and she signed up for all this stuff." After the first couple of weeks, everything has been working really well. I think it's very well kept. There's a nice meal room. Some of the furniture was kind of beat up a little bit, but people have walkers and wheelchairs and stuff, so I'm assuming that contributes to that. The hallways are wide and nicely decorated. My mom's apartment is very nice. We got it decorated really cute for her. She has nice light coming into her living room and her bedroom through the windows. The maintenance staff there is really good. If mom has any issues with her window blinds, or the toilet, or whatever, they're very quick to respond and very helpful. There is a technical staff there, and they helped us get her TV set up and all of that. She is right across from this really cute room called the Coca-Cola Room, where they have events. They have an ice cream social once a week. They play board games, puzzles, and stuff like that. She is also across from a room where they play movies. She likes that because she can just go in there and watch a movie with other people, and she doesn't have to sit in her room and be isolated. It's working out well. The receptionists are very helpful as well. Like, if we can't get a hold of our mom, then we just call the front desk, and they're like, "She's in the lunchroom. I know right where she is." I really want to give a shout-out to the receptionists there, because they're very helpful."

"My mother moved into Royal Plaza Retirement & Rehab Center, and it's been a very good experience. They take care of her, and anything you want, they try to get. I've eaten there a few times, you hear complaints, and you hear how good it is, but when I ate there it was OK. It was very nice, quiet, clean, the people were friendly, and when she first moved in two or three of the people who lived there got a hold of her and asked, " Is there anything I can do? We want to be your friend." Yes, it's very good."

"I visited Life Care Center in Lewiston, Idaho in 2010. Both my grandmother and one of her close lifelong friends were patients there. While visiting this facility I saw a wide variety of both quality professional conduct and conduct boering upon abuse. My grandmother was admitted for a short-term stay for rehabilitation only, she reported to me that the nurses were condescending towards her and she felt very insulted. I personally witnessed her friend being mistreated by a certified nursing assistant, who wrongly claimed to be a nurse when she was not. Most staff, including the physical therapists were very professional in conduct and treated my grandmother with respect. Some nurses were also extremely professional, while others were unprofessional and rude. I would not like to see any of my family members to ever be patients in this facility again. My recommendation to anyone with family members in this facility is to visit often and keep an eye on how your relative is doing, ask them how they are being treated and listen to what they have to say. Watch for bruises and a change in behavior. "

"The people at this facility genuinely care about the residents. It is a smaller home, I would say averaging six residents. Joyce and her help not only take care of their residents physically, they also treat them as actual humans, not just some number. They provide transport to and from personal and professional obligations. For example my aunt needed to visit with her insurance agent and no family was available to take her, so Joyce transported her all the way to the agent's office and back. They also schedule trips to community events, stores and even the local farmers market. The employees make sure to tell me if there in anything my aunt needs or anything that they have noticed which is out of the ordinary and may need to be addressed. The atmosphere of this is that of a family. Holidays and life events are celebrated with the residents and outside friends and family are always made welcome. The facility is clean and well maintained. The residents have the choice of just a single or a double-occupancy room depending upong what their needs and desires are. It is Joyce's which has allowed my aunt to thrive instead of just mark time in these latter years of her life. "
