"The Meadows of Franklin Grove was a nice facility, and the people were nice. The place was clean, and they had an art room, a baking room where you could go if you want to bake something, and a very nice basement. They have a really nice storage area like when you want to bring stuff and you don't want to get rid of it, you can store it. They were pretty decent. "

"While staff and residents were kind and capable, facilities and amenities were stretched thin. At one point it was found that my great aunt had fallen out of bed in the night and stayed there until morning. While I understand that such accidents happen and that she had not in fact woken up or raised any kind of alarm, I would feel more comfortable had they impemented some kind of routine patrol to check on residents. Further, though it may be cliche to comment, the food was usually unpalatable and bland. Oftentimes my mother and I would bring my great aunt meals instead of the fare that was offered in the home, simply because she disliked it so much. In other facilities I have heard that seasonings are not provided to residents due to an intolerance in some persons there. It would seem to me that allowing residents to season their own food as long as it does not endanger them would be a much preferable alternative to such a ban. Altogether I think that the facility suffered from a lack of funds and maintenance, but overall did the best that it could with what was possible. "

"Avonlea Cottage of Sterling is small, but very good, and my mom is very happy there. The place is very clean and very nice inside and outside. I really like the people who are running it. The food is very good and my mom has no complaints whatsoever. My mom goes to an exercise class and there's always something happening there, which is good."

"I did a tour of Windsor Manor - Morrison. I like it because it's close to me right now. I'm driving to visit my husband every day. With this coming winter -- I have a breathing issue, and it's been hard with this heat. It is less than a mile from my house. I like the place and the people who run it. The staff were always very nice, very hospitable, and ready to help you with anything. There is absolutely nothing in the rooms. You have to furnish everything, and that's what kind of concerned me. You have to furnish your bed, the recliner, the TV, and table to put it on. They have a walking garden that's sectioned off, and he's an outdoor person. If he gets walking, that's where it would be. It's very clean and the food was good."

"My mother-in-law is at The Alverno. They have enough people on staff to take care of the people. It's very clean and neat. The meals are adequate for the people. They treat her very well, and she's adjusting to it. So far, they have met our expectations. They play bingo, they paint, and they also have a little game with the balloon and fly swatters where they sit and swat at the balloon as they exercise. One day when we were in there, they had them all shucking corn, which they seemed to enjoy."

"My mom is a resident of Bickford of Clinton. Everything is wonderful about the place. All the staff, the seniors, the activity director, and everybody has been wonderful to my mother. They've gone way out of their way to help her, no matter what. She just loves it there. She loves the chair exercises and the activities. This all lifted her health. It's just amazing. They play bunco, bingo, and checkers. They do activities and make all kinds of different crafts. She just absolutely loves it. The social aspect is just wonderful, too. When she went in, she wasn't feeling well. This has lifted her up through the years. It's just amazing. I just love the place, and I can't say enough about it. The staff is just excellent. Everybody is so caring and nice. If they have any questions for my sister, my brother, or me, they come to us. They're just so helpful. I don't have anything bad to say because they've all just been so good to her. I think overall, the cooks do the best they can with what the recipes require of them. I was a cook myself, so I totally understand. The facility is beautiful inside. It's homey and comfortable. It's not like you're in a hospital, like some of the nursing homes I've been in. My dad was in one with Alzheimer's. They've just been above and beyond. My mom loves the activities, and she loves playing. I know there's other games that they've played. In terms of value for money, it's still less than going to a nursing home that's going to be $6,000 or $7,000 a month."
