The staff is always visible and friendly. At every visit, I see at least 4 different staff members in the halls or reception area. They seem to enjoy their job with the elderly and most residents seem to enjoy their surroundings. This home has many daily activites and they try to get all residents involved as much as possible. Weather permitting, the staff will take groups of residents outside for a stroll in the gardens or simply to sit in the gazebo. The rooms are very clean as well as the residents! Every quarter, family members are invited to a care meeting which provides updates and any concerns. If there are any concerns, they are addressed and followup meetings are scheduled every other week until the concern is taken care of. They also take care of scheduling quarterly Dr's appointments for a general checkup. They notify the family when the appointment is and provide transportation to and from the appointment. They have a wonderful Christmas program and dinner every year. During the festivites, family pictures are offered at no charge. It is a very comforting feeling to know that my Aunt Mary is being taken care of in the way that she deserves!

This place is the best, the staff are very friendly and helpful to the residents. The overall appearance of the facility is clean. In many facilities like this, there is usually a bad odor in the air, much like urine. In this facility this was not the case. The facility has it's own pool for use, a fully loaded sensory room, more than adequate space for common and dining areas, and an overall sense of professionalism. From the clients that I have had interactions with, they all seem very content with the services that they are provided, and their opportunity for community outings occurs frequently.

Both my grandpa Harold and grandpa Ronnie have recently stayed at the Western Home following surgeries. My grandpa Harold recently had a total knee replacement surgery and he was very comfortable here. The staff were really polite to me and my family whenever we came to visit him. They even allowed a few times for me to wheel my grandpa to the parking lot to see his dog. Since dogs weren't allowed in the home. My grandpa Ronnie had a similar experience when he fell out of a loader bucket and had to stay there for his physical therapy. He was a little upset that they had him connected to a machine that beeped whenever he moved (since he couldn't move on his own). But other than that, he liked it. When he could walk he would take his walker and go and talk to a lot of the others staying there and the employees and they were always nice to him and even assisted him back to his room if he was too tired to walk back himself. When he talked to them about me needing a job they offered me a position of dietary aid but I turned it down as another job came in that offered better pay.
