Putnam Caregivers

We were happy with how Putnam Caregivers looked on the inside, it was clean and well-kept. The caregiver there was very helpful with the information and she was able to answer all of our questions. The owner of the residence answered further questions when it came to the level of care, acceptance, and financial questions that we had. We are considering it, and we're most likely going to be put on the waiting list for it. They had board games, they had puzzles, they had word books, big-screen TVs, a nice living room area for them to sit in, and two different dining room areas. They had semi and private rooms, it's a 6-bed home. They cook and provide food, and the staff that I met was pleasant.

Putnam Caregivers is a private home and is considered assisted living. It's 24-hours, and just has 6 residents max, and this is where my mother has moved in. It's a very nice place for this area and it's really a beautiful home. It's not really fancy but it's clean and it's in a nice neighborhood. They help her with bathing, they pass out meds although she still has a nurse come by once a week. They also get her meals, assisting with getting up and down, they get her ready for doctor's appointment, and they call me when they have trouble with her. It has been a good experience so far. Her room is adequate, nothing fancy. The lady who helped me move her was concerned that the headboard wasn't attached to the bed and the bed moved, so she felt that wasn't safe. They have a simple dining room, I had a meal there and it was good. They gave large portions and they make sure the residents get dessert every night.

My experience with Putnam Caregivers has been great. It's a very relaxed atmosphere. My brother felt very secure and very comfortable there. The rooms are very clean. He has his own room. The dining area is very nice and clean. They have a patio, but they don't have a library or a beauty salon. It's a home.
