Abbey Manor Assisted Living

Abbey Manor Assisted Living was very clean and very cozy. The staff was great. The units were very clean and organized. The rooms were like one-bedrooms and studios. They have really nice accommodations there.

My husband was at Abbey Manor Assisted Living. He was there for three weeks for respite. Our experience was good. There was a lot of gently used furniture in the room, but very comfortable, like living in a home. They were updating their furniture there. They had painted, they were getting carpeting, and they were replacing the furniture. As individuals passed away, they would update the rooms. The staff was very nice. It would have been helpful if there were more, but I'm sure if there were more staff, the price would have been beyond what I could have afforded. Everyone was very nice to him. The food was delicious. They were friendly and very pleasant. They had a lot of social activities. They played bingo. They had a gentleman who was just terrific, very outgoing, and very gregarious. He would pull everybody together and go over the local news headlines and he would ask people, who was the last president and who would you vote for out of these four people if they were running for president, very much orienting people to time, place, and circumstance. They did a lot of wheelchair exercises and tossed the balloon back and forth while they were in the wheelchair. The gentleman who led the activities was excellent. He was able to pull everybody in and participate. They gave healthy snacks out every afternoon and every evening. The food was delicious. You could smell the food cooking when you walked in the front door. My husband had three falls while he was there. He was at high risk for falls and one of them happened when he was with two people. He had a little bit of trouble orienting himself at night. He was used to me being with him at night, sleeping in the same room, so he would get up to the side of the bed to use the urinal, which was hooked on the bedside stand drawer and he would flip. After the first fall, they did at my request put a bed alarm on the bed, and when he was up in the daytime, it was in the chair and if it went off, they would respond immediately, which was good. He frequently needed toileting and I used to worry at night because there's a 1:16 ratio at night. They handled that pretty well. I said, "If you have an emergency, what do you do?" "We pull somebody over from the next building," "We'd pull them over right away to help." I think there may have been some staffing difficulties at times, but they were always able to get someone to cover, with COVID and everything else. He enjoyed his stay there. Everyone was really friendly and they did the best they could given the resources. The price was very reasonable. They offered us permanent placement there, and we decided not to opt for permanent placement. I had dinner and lunch with him and it was very good. They've taken down all of their pictures. The furnishings and all wasn't the biggest issue for me. The biggest issue was safety. They had concerns that they were refreshing their decor.

My overall experience with Abbey Manor was very good. They gave thorough and informative discussion of what they offer. I only saw one person, and he showed me a couple of empty rooms that currently don't have a resident in them. We just sat and talked for about a half hour or 45 minutes about everything that is involved in assisted care. It was a very good tour. Their rooms were fine. They weren't fancy, but they were homey. The ones I saw were very small and it wasn't what I expected. The staff was very knowledgeable with a lot of experience in the industry. I didn't have a full tour of every room in the building. They're still very wary about the Coronavirus, so I didn't walk through the entire facility. I just went in a couple of rooms.

We had a very nice experience at Abbey Manor. It's a small facility, and they had housing complexes that were very neat and clean. It's like a family type setting. The room we saw was small, clean, and would fit a bed and several dressers. They had a sitting area where the residents could talk, listen to music, and watch television. The dining area had a small family type setting as well.

My father is in Abbey Manor. It was close to us and homey. They have activities, like listening to music. He's thriving and doing well there. It's really nice. The staff communicates with us very well.

Abbey Manor was fairly new, so it was nice, clean and orderly. They had private rooms and the people were very helpful. They were a good group to work with. The dining room was very nice, neat and orderly. Everything was presentable and looked good.
