West Side Board And Lodge

The facility was decent. It was fairly cleaned and most of the residents seemed happy there. A lot of the buildings were a bit old, but they were still in good condition. The staff was always friendly and seemed to care a lot about the residents. The one negative thing that I can think of is that the facility did not encourage its residents to excersise that much. The residents often sat in front of the TV and that was about it. They did call the bus every once in a while so that residents (supervised) could go to the store, etc. The facility always made sure that the residents ate enough and they were very strict about their medication schedules, etc. The facility was very employee friendly, for example, the facility allowed my mom to have me visit with the residents while she worked when I was eight. I got to socialize with the residents, which I enjoyed. I also think I made them happy too.
