Addington Place of Shoal Creek

My husband is here. He has been there for five months now. The thing that I like most about them is that the employees are all very caring and very nurturing. They make sure that they're happy, that they're clean, and they're taking care of us. I like the facility because it's in the memory care and everybody's rooms, when they come out of the room, they go right into either the dining room or their little television room, so they don't have to wonder which direction to go in. The rooms are all private rooms. They have a half divider right in the middle of the room so that they have a little area to sit, watch television, read, or whatever, and then the other area is where he sleeps. He has a bed, and he sleeps there, and it's right next to the bathroom so he can get up and go or get a shower. They have laminate flooring so that they won't stumble or fall. They don't have a lot of amenities or activities for them. The assisted living had exercises and bingo and those sorts of things, but the people in memory care don't care for bingo. They have lots of videos so they can watch those. The employees will come and sit with them and talk to them and do that sort of thing. They cook breakfast there, but lunch and supper are catered from the local grocery store. They don't have as many activities, but they're so kind, and they do the laundry and everything else for them. They're just kind people, and that's important. For the most part, the food is pretty good. I have tried their food.
