Langdon Place of Keene

Reviewer RC#0513d

Langdon Place of Keene has a lot of turnover, and staffing levels seem to be low. My sister is there for rehabilitation. She likes the fact that there is a pool. She gets physical therapy, occupational therapy, and full medical care. Their food is OK.

We're looking at Langdon Place of Keene. We're happy with that choice. Actually, my father liked it. I wouldn't have picked it just because it was built in the 80s, and it still reflects the 80s with the green and the decor. It's quintessential New England, and it offers my father a lot of things that he enjoys. It's not in the city, so he gets to look out into the woods. And he wants some activities, and they have a calendar full of things that they do with the folks. There is an indoor pool, which is also another bonus. My father will be in a two-bedroom apartment when everything's finally settled. He wants that two-bath, but the one they had available was a two-bedroom, one-bath, so there's lots of options. The only thing is that it has a shower-tub combination, and he really needs a shower, and I don't trust him going over and stepping over, so that was more my concern. The other thing that we liked about it is it offers memory care in the same facility. The staff there was wonderful. Anyone who walked by said hello. The people living there seemed happy, and they looked well cared for. The dining area was very nice. It just seemed more like a large home. It was nice that way. It was outdated, but nice. However, I wasn't too happy with the receptionist. She seemed very off putting, but Jen and the rest of the staff seemed very nice and accommodating.

My dad used to live in the Langdon Place of Keene. I've actually talked to them twice, and I'm trying to set up an appointment maybe after the new year to go visit them. We'll see how things go. The staff seemed to do very well. The times I visited, they were all very polite. They seemed to take care of each person individually, but that was before the virus. I didn't try the food, but it seemed like they ate very well. They had a nice dining room set up. My father did escape from there one day because someone left the door open. I know they have a pool and a salon there. They have a nice courtyard. You could take your parent out, visit, and chat personally in a much quieter garden area.
