Medford Hamlet

Kathleen Linda

Number one on my list is the cleanliness and brightness of this facility. My Mom moved there December 2010, and shares a room with a lovely woman . The wait time after Mom was put on the list, was about 5 months. We were welcome at any time to visit the Hamlet, and speak with the other residents, as we waited. Mom was royally welcomed by some of the ladies she met before she even moved in. The floors are washed and swept frequently, the rooms and baths are cleaned daily. Beds are made, laundry is done, and delicious meals are served 3 times a day. Snacks and beverages are always available. There is a hair salon, and Resident Doctors and Nurses take care of medical issues. Medication is given out individually by the nurses. There are many activities during the day, bus trips, a movie room, and volunteers come in once a week to do manicures for the gals. A certified dog viists every week for the folks to pet and gush over. He is sweet. Musicians, Clergy, are there to speak to the residents and entertain them. The staff is superb, very caring, well trained and polite to everyone. Mom is there with Medicaid, thank goodness. However, many other folks have larger rooms and choose to pay their way. Fees start at 3 to 5 thousand a month. In house Banking is provided, for all. Social workers, Psychologists, Podiatrist, and Physical Therapy is available to all. The admimistration and front desk personnel are always polite and ready to help or answer any questions family may have. I give this facility a High Five. Excellent...
