I thought that The Residence of Chardon was great, and the experience was very good. I really like their facility and how each resident has their own individual room and their own individual bathroom. It was quiet, it was clean, and I thought it was very nice. I didn't have a lot of interaction with the staff, but the nurse showed us around and was willing to answer any question.

The low rating is chiefly due to the instability of the administration. The Residence of Chardon is on its third administrator in less than a year. We had problems with what the first administrator told us the costs would be. The third (temporary) administrator is charging us for a month after they told our mom they couldn't handle her needs after her fall and hip replacement.
If you could get past the money and turnover and contradictory supervisor statements, it wouldn't have been a bad place. But they are not trustworthy with money.

I visited the Residence of Chardon, and I wasn't very impressed with it. The staff was fine. They seemed to have all the amenities, but they didn't have quite the atmosphere.

The Residence of Chardon looks very much like a home. It does not look like a hospital at all. There's carpeting and furniture. It is in a square, and there are only 40 units. It is very homey. I am very impressed with this place. There is a lot of turnover with staff, but I think their competency is great. When I was with my dad, they really worked with me and tried to do what they could. They really worked with me to keep him there and get things taken care of. I really don't have any complaints about the personnel; I think they're good. Food is fine. It is not gourmet, but it is fine. My dad is a picky eater, but he has gained a lot of weight since he has been there. Also they definitely keep them busy doing different activities that they can do. They take them out, the ones that can or the ones that want to. They definitely have activities there for them. My dad is in a private room. He has a little kitchenette area and a living space. It is all one room and a bedroom. He has a full handicap-sized bathroom. When he moved into this room, they put new carpeting, and they painted it. I would recommend this facility.

The Residence of Chardon was very nice and clean. The people were very nice and friendly too. The rooms were fairly large with a bedroom, a bathroom, and a living room. It seems very secure, and I would recommend the facility.

Residence of Chardon said they couldn't take my mom because of her condition and that they didn't go onto continuing care. It wasn't anything against the place, they were very nice, but they just couldn't handle my mother because of her having an amputation. The facility actually was very nice. It was located actually closer to where I live, which would have been ideal. They did have very nice rooms there. They seemed to be clean and of decent size; however, a little smaller than the one my mom has now. The staff was friendly. There seemed to be adequate of them around. The residents seemed cared for. I really like this facility and I would recommend this place if it would meet their needs.

I noticed an odor when I walked in the building. The staff were friendly and responsive to my questions. It was clean but the odor was a bit overwhelming.
