Aldersgate Village Life Plan Community

My mom-in-law is in the rehab unit at Aldersgate Village for two weeks. It's very homey, very light, and bright. They push her to help her get better. We're very happy. The staff is very friendly, caring, and talkative even though most of the patients can't talk because they are suffering from dementia or Alzheimer's. I was really impressed with the training they must have had. They have lots of activities there.

My Mother was sent to this facility for skilled rehab. Mom was there for 4 weeks until I checked her out due to Mom was overly drugged and they were short staffed.

Aldersgate took very good care of my father. The facility was very clean and did not have the smell that you associate with Nursing Homes. They provide independent living, assisted living and a nursing home. This enables a person to move to more care as needed. It also allows for a spouse to remain close to the other. The personal care was not 100% but I was able to take care of some of that myself. Like making sure his teeth were brushed good and shaving him. The ratio in a nursing home is very difficult to provide the quality care a person would like. But it is a business and they need to watch their labor dollars. Unfortunately it is at the expense of the patient. However, this particular facility, the staff became very close to me and I had a lot of trust in their care. I was very comfortable with the quality of communication they had with my family. My father was in the Memory Care unit and they did a fantastic job of keeping the resident safe in their living space.
