The Manor at Saratoga

Annette

I toured The Manor at Saratoga. I like the facility. It was clean. The residents that I saw seemed to be happy. Victor, who gave me the tour, was very nice and very experienced. He not only told me about the facility, but he told me about the neighborhood. It seemed like a very nice neighborhood. He had a menu for the month posted, and activities. The only thing that I did not like was the room that they would put my husband in if he went to that facility, he would share a room with another person. I did not like that only because they told me at the facility where my husband is now, and when he was in the VA hospital here in Durham that he hollered out during the night. He called my name all night long. And I think that might be disturbing to the patient, and I wouldn't want him to disturb the other person. The Manor at Saratoga was also somewhat cheerful and inviting, so I liked that. It was welcoming.

My rating for The Manor at Saratoga is based on what we were looking for. Somebody else might find it better. It seems like a small and confining space. Mom is a pretty sociable person and we don't think that would be a good fit for her. The residents that we saw just sat there, sort of like zombies, not communicating with anyone, not even each other. It was like a private house that was overcrowded. The space to move around was not adequate in my view. If my mom were to be there, she would share a room with somebody else. So, it just didn't seem right for her. We met the owner. Her husband was in the process of repairing a door knob. We didn't meet anybody else who was introduced to us as staff, but the interaction I had with the owner was pleasant.

I toured The Manor at Saratoga. The house was nice, the outside was nice, and there was a big backyard for the patients to go. When I was there, I met three staff, and the house was up to code. It had extra ventilation there. It had all the records, certifications, and everything. The issue I had was the house appeared to be too small. On one side of the house, a bedroom for two men. It was like two hospital beds, but the bedroom was really small and the beds were like one was lined up on one wall, one was a catty-corner on the other side. They had a wardrobe and a place to put the TV. It was very dark. They had a small kitchen table and a very small den that had nothing but recliners on both sides. I didn't see any activities for them. He said they had a little keyboard, so they do karaoke sometimes. It just didn't seem like a friendly atmosphere for the patients. The staff was very nice, very kind, and very informative.

We toured The Manor at Saratoga. We loved that it's only six residents, and it's in a private home setting. It didn't look like a nursing home. They talked about how they honor everyone's faith. The rooms were clean. There was no smell of urine or anything like that. The man we met truly cared, and you could just feel it. We didn't knock them out of the box yet, but the price is a little high for us. The staff member who accommodated us, Saidu, definitely made it for us.
