Conesus Lake Nursing Home

Grace

My mother has moved into Conesus Lake Nursing Home. She is being well cared for, kept clean, and is sleeping in her bed, which she was not doing when she was in another facility. Now she's being helped with things that she couldn't do before by herself. Her medical or physical health went down very quickly. She had some medical issues that we've been trying to help her with ever since Covid struck, and it's just been bad for her. They're very kind and very attentive. They're quick to please whatever you need, whatever you want. They take very good care of the residents. They're quick to take care of them, make them feel comfortable, and at home. We were treated very kindly by the social worker, Tracy. All the different aides and the nurses that they have there have been kind. We know that it's a very good place for my mother at this point in time. There are two patients in one room and that works for my mother. She would love to have a private room, but they only have two private rooms; those are not available at this time. She is living in a room with another person, and she gets along with the person. It's a nice room. I've seen it. We can't go there into the room, but we can go to the facility to visit my mother. We have visits that are 45 minutes long, and we make appointments. They're very careful because of COVID. They have no COVID there, and that's the way they want to keep it. They don't want to have COVID among the residents; we understand that. They have different types of activities, but my mother is really not into activities right now. She's just getting used to the place. She'd like to see her family rather than spend time with other people; she's kind of a loner. I have seen the activity room, which is very, very nice. I know they have a cat there. It is a community cat that will come and visit you (if you want it to be in the room with you). If not, the cat realizes that you don't and won't go wherever it's not wanted. Then they have a couple little budgie parakeets there; that is very sweet. I just think that it's a nice country place for people who want a slower pace of life. It's a very nice place, and they also have outings that they go on. My mother hasn't been there long enough to do that. I understand that they will have some things for the residents to do in the coming months. It all depends on whether the residents are ambulatory or not.
