Taylor Place

My mom is now in Taylor Place. It is very convenient to where she lived, and she knew people that were there. She is very happy. We are very pleased with it. The place is small and nice with only 36 residents. It is very well decorated and very well kept. The food is very good. My mom was not eating when she was living by herself, but now she seems to be eating and is going to the meals.

My wife is in Taylor Place. It's one floor and it's a homey facility. They said they would take care of her until hospice. She has her own little studio. They come in and check on her every two hours. They put her on a clock for the bathroom because she can't tell you when to go (she has Alzheimer's), but she seems to get along pretty good in there. She is getting the care that she needs. They all seem to be good to her. My wife makes the people laugh and everybody gets along pretty good. She's able to feed herself and she seems to clean up her plate. It doesn't seem to bother, she eats whatever.

Taylor House is only about 5 minutes away from our house. Everything is a good and satisfactory. The Taylor House is assisted living, and the apartments there are studio. There are also about five units with a living room and bedroom. In every one, there is a refrigerator and a microwave. They have walk in bathrooms which is good for the handicapped. It is a very nice place. The food that they have is good for me, but it is only served in a very little portion. According to my husband, they have a lot of food in the morning and lunch time has bigger food servings. They print out the activities for the month. The place is very nice and very clean. It is just like a hotel for me. The staff and nurses are all accommodating. I think I went to three other places, and this place is the cheapest in Findlay.

Taylor House was wonderful, and I wished my friend had been able to go there. I also wished that they had a way to take care of patients when they ran out of money and had to go on Medicaid. Regarding the rooms, I only saw one room, and it was more spacious than the other facility. The dining room was beautiful, and I had eaten there; the food was wonderful. At Taylor House, with regards to activities, they have afternoon tea and entertainment coming in which the other facility does not have. It is not strictly Alzheimer's. It is more an assisted living, but it is also a lockdown facility. I very much would recommend this place to others.
