My dad is in the dementia care of MediLodge of Capital Area. It's one of the few nursing homes that still has that. It's a really nice facility and they take very good care of him. Any little thing that happens, like if he bumped his elbow or tried to stand up out of his wheelchair by himself, anything like that, they give us a call and let us know. So, they keep a very good communication line with us. He has nurses that really seem to care about him and know him really well. He needs a special kind of mashed up food now because of his swallowing, and they make sure that he eats. If he doesn't eat well, they offer him a nutritional drink shake. So, we just feel like he gets really good care there. I like it because the hallway is very quiet. They have a TV area, but I don't believe there's televisions in the actual room so that it's much quieter than when my mom was in Kalamazoo, where everybody had their own television, and they were on very, very loud. It's a quieter area for my dad, which is great for his dementia because it just gets too distracting with all those televisions going and stuff. It's a nice, clean, and updated facility. The rooms are nice, too. Last month we went to a picnic where they loaded up all the people and their wheelchairs and took them to a park and took a grill to the park. The family came and met the residents at the park. We were under a pavilion, and it was really nice and really special. They put forth a lot of effort to do it. They seem to be happy when family visits. One time we weren't there for a little while because my mom was having problems, and we didn't see my dad. His nurses were like, "We're so glad you came. We were hoping you guys would come soon. He needs to see you." It was just really nice because they like family that come in.

The management at Capital Area was horrible, but the location is good. It was remodeled, and it looked really nice. Food is not so great unless they changed it.
