The Haworth Center at Baptist Manor

Carol

We went to The Haworth Center at Baptist Manor. It seemed like they took very good care of their people. The person who showed us around seemed very knowledgeable, but I thought it was quite outdated. They needed new paint, new carpet, and new furnishings. Everything looked old, worn, and not clean, and there was some odor in there, which turned me off immediately.

I didn't like The Haworth Center at Baptist Manor at all. I wouldn't put my mother there. The setup in the building was very bad. All of the residents were forced to leave their rooms at a certain time, and so they all congregate in the halls. They don't separate the Alzheimer's patients from the non-Alzheimer's patients. The staff seemed attentive. The room that I saw was pretty small. It should have a big window, but the closet was pretty big, and the bathroom was fine.

I got mom in The Haworth Center at Baptist Manor. They’ve been great over there; she really likes it. They would accept the Medicare waiver once mom’s money runs out. It’s nice and friendly. There are plenty of people there for her to talk to. It’s a little small, but there is a place in the back that she can go out and visit. They have all kinds of activities. Once a month, they take her out somewhere; they have trips. One of the problems we had was that we couldn’t get her to eat and now, and she’s eating a lot better; she likes the food. I liked The Haworth Center at Baptist Manor the best.

Baptist Manor was an excellent facility. It was cheaper, but they had a two-year waiting list. It has amenities -- but not as many -- they have meals, and they have a kitchen.

Baptist Manor had an excellent facility, and they were outstanding. The staff was excellent. I saw the studio, but it was not functional; they had to remodel it, and it was small. They had a little kitchenette in there. It’s clean; I didn’t smell any odors. It was attractive and safe.

I didn't like Baptist Manor. I especially didn't like the fact that all I had was a room. It was a small bedroom with a chest in it and a bed and that was it, as far as what I would have. You go down the hallway and at the end of the hallway, there was a sitting area and there was a small TV there. I just didn't like it. The grounds looked nice. They had different apartments around the building that those rooms were in that may have been for independent living but the particular one that I looked at, it was just a small bedroom and a chair. I wasn't satisfied with that at all. The décor in there was awful as well. They could offer more room for you to live in. They needed a space that was just for watching TV instead of just out the middle of the floor in the hallway. I didn't understand that. Whatever they showed me, I didn't like it.

Mom stayed at Baptist Manor for eight years. It was very affordable. It was convenient because my mom was in the independent living and she could visit dad, who was then in the assisted living, every day because they were close to each other. I thought her room was nice. However, she was blind and her toilet overflowed. That upsets her a lot. They needed to update their plumbing. The meals weren't so good too.

I checked out one of the apartments at Baptist Manor and it was okay. They offer one or two bedrooms.

The Baptist manor is affordable and we chose this for my dad. My mother lived there for ten years and I'm very happy with it. They can live independently and yet there's somebody there to check on them every day. They have an emergency button which is worn around their neck so they can call for assistance any time. The apartments are of nice size and very clean. My father has a wound that needs to be cared for and a nurse can do that if I can't come over. He had food delivered to him 3 times a day. They need a better activities director though.

The Baptist Manor was very nice and I loved it. The staff was very nice and courteous. I really enjoyed my visit and would have loved to move in there. It's just that I had a credit problem and had filed for bankruptcy, so I couldn't get in. The best thing about it is that they provide all the services that you need.

I visited Baptist Manor when I was looking for a place for myself. Their staff were very, very friendly and I really enjoyed the place. I enjoyed the setup of the quad where you can walk directly into your home. It has a little porch in the front and an attached garage. Also, if sometimes I didn't want to cook for myself, I can just go to the cafeteria to eat the meals the meals they have there.

It was the only one we found with subsidized housing so first of all, my mom can afford it. There she can live in independent living (because she didn't quite need assisted living) but they bring all of her resources to her. She just needed some help with independent living so they bring whatever help she needs to her and her apartment because she cant afford a regular apartment. The place is like a college campus for older people but it still feels like home because the staff there was really sweet. They have like 35 acres of land around them. There's not a single thing mom needs because everything is provided for her there. They have transportation, food delivery, housekeeping if she needs it and whatever her needs are they give her a social worker to talk to about it. Mom said the food is really good. It's like a buffet every night. They just have different things set up for them everyday so she can chose what she like and what she doesn't wanna do. Mom is so happy! I'm really contented.

I think Baptist Manor of Farmington Hills, Michigan is an excellent choice for placement for someone who prefers to live independently and who is looking for an apartment for themselves, a friend or a family member to live in. The Baptist Manor is a faith based non profit senior living community apartment complex. The common areas are on a 35 acres campus in Farmington Hills, Mi and it is simply gorgeous and it is beautifully coordinated in a wooded cul-de-sac neighborhood. The surrounding neighborhood is beautifully landscaped and is coordinated and tailored with perfection. The senior community is in a 0% crime rate neighborhood. I could almost smell the pine trees they are so beautiful this time of the year. The residents love it there and they enjoy spending time interacting with one another there also.

There community there is for seniors 62 and older, but they will accept underage residents with mobility and they are given a specialty designed assessable apartment.
