We saw Sweetwater Creek Adult Foster Care when we went by and there was something about it that my husband said, 'Let's investigate.' We talked to the woman. We liked what she had to say. She said that we were welcome to come in and tour, which several of us did, and we'd love the feel of it. It is a very nice and small home. There are only four other women there. It is a very homey feeling. My mother-in-law has been there now for two to three weeks and she's very happy there. When my mother-in-law was brought in that day, residents came, met her at the door, and took her hands, and they're just sweet. Everyone there is sweet and wonderful, and it's completely set up for their comfort and living. She's just in the best hands. The staff members are very sweet and very caring. We were there while they were fixing lunch the day my mother-in-law got there, and the food looked like a well-balanced lunch. Activities were one of the things that drew us to them. When we came in for a visit at two different times, the ladies were sitting at the table playing a card game and playing a board game, and they had puzzles and they tried to keep the residents very active. The facility is set up for my mother-in-law to get around in her walker or wheelchair and to get in and out of the house. They take her to her doctor's appointments and their vehicle is set up for these ladies to be able to get in and out easily. The house is all one level, there are no steps. There's a deck out from the kitchen with bird feeders where birds are flocking there. It's just perfect. It's amazing. We keep thinking this can't be right, it's so much cheaper than other places we looked at.
