Cedarhurst of Canton

Cedarhurst of Canton was a nightmare for me and my husband. They came and assessed him and told me that he was a level four, and they explained to me that they knew his problems. When he got there, they did nothing for him. He almost died there. The food was OK, but it wasn't as good as where he was the last time. It was a beautiful facility. It had a lake on the backside of it. They misdiagnosed him. He needed to be in memory care and they put him at a level four. After he'd been there about two weeks, I was hiring people to come up and stay with him because I was afraid for his life. When I did that, they told me that he needed to go somewhere else and that they could not give him the care he needed. He had C. diff and they would not even bathe him. They kept sponging him, and he was having a really hard time. He was burning so bad in his rectum, that I had to beg a person who was one of the people at the facility there. I said he has to have a shower and the guy said, "I cannot give him a shower by myself. We do not have a lift here." I said, "Would you help me give him a shower?" The two of us washed him and they left his clothes in the shower from Friday night until Monday morning. When I got there, they were still there. It was not a good experience. They were very overpriced for what I got.

Right now, my husband is a resident of Cedarhurst of Canton. It's nice because it's small. I think they have a maximum maybe of 15 or 16 people that can stay there. My husband requires total care to be changed and fed and all that. So it's not good for that type of person, but for someone who can feed themselves and walk and all that, it's a wonderful environment. Right now, they're without an activity director, and there could be a lot of improvement as far as scheduled activities. The food is good though. The cleanliness of the place is excellent. My husband's room is very convenient. The staff is very caring.

We went to look at Cedarhurst of Canton, and we loved it. We love the lady that was in charge. She was so friendly and nice. We thought the room was really large. The area was nice because it was wooded and had scenery for them to look at. The dining hall was open and nice. It feels very homey.

Cedarhurst of Canton was beautiful. When you pull up, it looked like a lodge that would sit on the side of a ski mountain. There was lots of parking, and the entrance was secure. They had a hand-sanitizing area, and basically like a front desk, and when you went in, it was a wide open space. They greeted us, and then the lady that was showing us around took us to her office first and talked about what we were looking for, about my father-in-law, what type of person he was, and then she toured us around. The facility was huge, but it was very well decorated and clean. The dining area was also huge. They had the menu posted on the wall, and just around the perimeter of it, they had cabinets where you could go up to get your drink refilled, or get your silverware or your condiments. The squared tables seated four people, and they were all spread out. They had a big movie room with a popcorn and a drink machine. There's a library with lots of books, board games, crossword puzzles, and things that they could do. When you go outside, they had a huge covered porch with rocking chairs, and homemade swings made out of trees. There was a big lake in the back area that you could look out at. It was real pretty because the sun was beaming off of it. The rooms were also nice and clean. They all had safety features in them with the pull cords and the handrails in the bathrooms, big closets, and big windows. It was just too expensive for us.

My Dad has been a resident since April 2020 He is still adjusting to his new lifestyle and is very happy . The staff here is extremely nice and friendly and they are willing and ready to assist with all of our requests. The staff is eager to keep us informed about their safety measures during this covid-19 and have done an excellent job in keeping our loved ones safe. They give us peace of mind in knowing that our dad's care is the best that can be found. Dad loves the food and especially dessert.
