Yorkshire of Edina

Well run from top to bottom.

We had a family member with Alzheimers at Yorshire for almost a year and it was disappointment and disappointment. Medications were administered incorrectly. Expired medication was given for lengthy periods of time. Some medications we're giving at double doses. Nursing staff didn't know what 'sublingual' meant. Staff were rude and inappropriate directly to our family member staying there. Originally we were told there would be activities to keep residents entertained and that didn't turn out to be true. There's more- I could go on. Do not send your loved ones to Yorkshire.

Yorkshire of Edina is a good place, and my mother is in the memory care area. It's a very nice, small community, and it's very nice and welcoming. The place is spacious and the staff is awesome. The dining area looks nice, and I have been there when the residents were eating, and my mom hasn't complained about the food. The residents play bingo, they have happy hour on Fridays, and there's all kinds of activities. There's plenty to keep them busy all day long.

Yorkshire of Edina was beautiful, and we really liked the room and the wide hallways. It didn't look like a nursing home; it looked more like a home. One of the reasons that we picked it was because of the service that my father-in-law needed, like a low-sodium diet. We needed him to have a lot of care, but I don't feel like he got the care he needed there. They're so new, and it took about two weeks for him to get a low-sodium diet. Within a month of being there, he got pneumonia and had to go to the hospital. He lived in an apartment with a bath, a half kitchen with no stove, and one room where you would put your couch, bed, TV, and table. Everybody was so kind and nice, especially at the front desk, but we felt that it took too long to get with the program. People checking on him to make sure that he was bathing and was at the level of care should have happened, and I don't feel like it happened.
