Mother And Son Assisted Living

I use to care for a lady that needed more. She moved into King House and I visited her 3 times a week. I got to see how kind and efficient this small place is . Very caring. Meals were very good. My husband and I even rented a room if available to have shelter for hurricane. It may look pain on the outside but who cares. I don't. What was iside is whart counted. There is warmth and people are treated with respect. I use to take that ladies dog to visit her. The dog became my dog. The doctor that visits is a fine doctor. and I've known him for many years. Patients there are in good hands always. Mrs. King knew all about each person. Their habits and personalities. I visited long enough to know at any given time of day and have beed welcomed when we stayed the night to know that those that run the facility are always the same. With all the hoopla of abuse going on in news, none of it goes on at King House. They have a generator for bad weather and I felt safe there and safe for my friend. She could be a little difficult at times but kindness was always shown and was always shown by everyone there. I am now ageing and if i ever need to go anywhere it would be there. I love the simple peaceful life there. if one has to be simi shut in or shut in depending on your health, King House would be my choice hands down. A really down to earht place that is highly qulifyed. I floowed nes and news papers og abuse in Fl and as I read articles I kelpt thinking of how safe I felt for my friend staying there and I got to see with my own eyes for about 2 years before she passed from cancer. I saw hospice care and how quiet and peaceful is was for that. I saw a lady at the dinner table who atr very slowly and was always the very last to finish. The patients they all had with her. No body rushed her and let her eat at her own pace. She always finished her mael if it took an hour. They all acepted her slow eating and finidhing last. I have visited 4 places in my life and King house is tops. I would rather have the quality of what King House providxes than the quantity of a huge facility. if anyone was the least bit frail someone always attended them in shower. I know that is anyone is looking you would do well to to choose King House. The rooms were very clean. Your allowed to bring your own furniture if you have the proper room. The bathrooms are kept clean. My friend had a little fridge in her room and I would take her out to shop for her snacks. She liked to munch and had no particular health restrictions. There is a rec room where those that want may gather. I saw group excercise age appropiate. People who wanted to interact were fee to do so in that rec room. If a person needed more personal care, that is was available also. There was naver any set time that I showed up because of my schedual. It was alwsys the same. Great care and a great place to be for seniors.. I don't remember how the laundry was handled but my friend always looked nice. Lunch time always had great aroma and not that hospital smell. Dinner time the same. I remember residents being taken to maybe a specialist in a van so I know if it's needed it is available.

It never is easy walking into a place and seeing so many faces that you can tell haven't had company in a while, if ever. However the staff seemed very friendly and treated the members with respect and kindness during the brief time we were there. The staff also was very attentive and evolved with the Christmas festivities. The outside of the retirement home isn't much to look at and looked pretty run down.It could of used some new paint and maybe some blooming plants around the outside. But, however the the general facility overall was okay. It was Christmas so inside the facility was full of lights and Christmas decorations. You could feel the holiday spirit in every member and faculty we came across. The living area was cleanly and had a grandparent-homey feeling to it. We really did enjoy our short visits and hope to return soon and see how it is today.
