Kingsbridge House

Find someplace else. My mother was there just under a year and developed Scabies and other ailments due to the non-caring attitude of the staff. Clothes and linens were not changed regularly and doctor prescribed medications not supplied as needed. We finally got her out of there and are now paying to resolve the damage they did. This place should really be reported to the authorities as it is not viable for elderly people.

If you can afford to go somewhere else, do so! This place used to be fairly nice, but since being bought out by the Chinese, it has gone downhill fast. (It's now owned by a conglomerate in Hong Kong, which stated it bought it as an investment, so that tells you what the number one priority is). Supervision is almost nil, and no attempt is made to keep residents from wandering in and out of rooms and taking items belonging to someone else. They can't be bothered to separate the residents laundry and clothing, and whenever I see my mom, she's dressed in some decrepit old thing that doesn't even belong to her. Half the time she has no shoes on, and her diaper is always dirty. They don't clean her nails, or comb her hair. She has also had some "unexplained" bruises. They've removed the carpeting, most of the artwork on the walls, and the place looks like a cheap dormitory (at best). No attempt seems to be made anymore in involving residents in any sort of activity. They have an RN (supposedly) who manages the place now, but she does diddly-squat and leaves everyday by 3pm. If you can afford an alternative to this warehousing facility, I suggest you do so. If I had guardianship of my mom, she would be out of there yesterday.

Kingsbridge is an outstanding example of a facility where intent, caring, and continual education results in assisted living that benefits everyone. The staff from top to bottom exhibit what Alzheimer's care should look like.
