McKnight Place Assisted Living

McKnight Place was very nice. The rooms are OK and alright, but they're very small. It's an older place, but when they have their new building next year, they're going to turn that place into memory care, so they're in the process. The room in assisted living is a good size, but it's just one room -- no living room and separate bedroom -- but it's adequate. The dining area is very nice and designed around a courtyard, so it's really very pretty.

I visit this facility regularly to see a resident. Whenever I am there, I regularly see the nurse's desk, where the call lights go unmanned. As far as I can tell, this means that if a resident needs emergency assistance, and pushes their call buttons, nothing will happen. When a nurse finally returned, I mentioned that the desk was unmanned, and that this meant that the residents could be seriously hurt, and no one would notice. I was hoping to hear him explain that they carry pagers and receive the requests remotely as they are up and about helping patients. Instead, he just agreed that the situation was not good. Meanwhile, while I was waiting to talk to SOMEONE, there was a kind man there in a wheelchair also waiting, and he asked me if I worked there. I said no. I said that I was waiting for someone to come back. He replied, "No one is ever at this desk. It takes forever to get any attention." As nursing homes go, this place is truly lovely from the looks of it. It seems that the people who run the place want it to look lovely, but are not all that concerned with it being lovely, or sadly, with it even being safe for their residents.

The McKnight Place was lovely. If I could afford to live anywhere and I was older, I would live in this facility. It is right in the middle of everything. They have activities like sculpting, painting, and gardening. They also have wonderful entertainment. You can be as busy as you want to be. It was wonderful and always clean. My friend's mother got wonderful care in this facility.

McKnight Place seemed like a very nursing home. Everything was clean. My grandpa's room was private and large, including the bathroom (my mom told me we paid extra for the private room). I ate there a few times and was impressed by the quality of the food. They had a lot of different activities, including movie and bingo night. One time my grandpa kicked us out because he wanted to participate in an activity! They also had gorgeous outdoor space and even an atrium with a gigantic bird cage. That seemed like a really unique thing to have in a nursing home.
