Country Hearts Assisted Living

Originally, my mom was in a little unit, a small place called Country Hearts Assisted Living, which was wonderful as far as the care, but they were only talking like nine residents in there. So, that was very nice. It worked out perfectly. But it was just a house. The advantage of Country Hearts is that the amount of care they offered was vastly superior. They had a nurse and she was there full time, and the resident RN was coming in twice a month, and then they had a physician's assistant that came in the other two weeks. And then their doctor was coming in once a month. The offered care was amazing. Their food is home-cooked. Amenities were very, very simple. They didn't have a lot of organized activities for them. They have reclining chairs in front of the TV. It was small. There was a patio area outside, but they didn't have a lot of access to that.

I have an aunt at who lived here for about a year. She needed a lot of assistance physically and some behavioral issues. After we put her here they gave her extra activities and got her the physical therapy needed to gain back some indepednece and with that her attitude improved and she was happy at the facility. She made friends and enjoyed the home cooked meals. During Christmas and Thanksgiving the familys are invited to an amazing dinner. During Chritmas they also have gifts for all the residents under the tree.

My longest living grandmother was in an assisted living facility because she developed severe dementia. She was very well taken care of in this facility not only were the workers so sweet to help her feel as normal as possible (they would have her help with the cooking because they knew how much she loved it) but other people housed there who didn't need as much help were sweet to my grandmother too. Her roommate didn't have dementia, so she'd help grandma during the night when she'd get scared or forget where she was. My grandmother actually picked the facility herself before she was too far gone in her dementia, she liked it because it was sort of out of town and felt more like a "home" than a clinical space.
