Randall Residence of Tiffin

Beverly

My mom moved into the Randall Residence of Tiffin. The staff members are all very loving, caring, and helpful. The facilities are nice. They have lots of activities. It's just a nice place to live. My mother's comment on the food was that they serve a lot of fish, and she's not a big fish eater. But she's been happy with the food overall. They have church services where, twice a month, pastors actually come in. Otherwise, they have it on TV. They have bingo, a hair salon on site, a doctor on site, and weekly outings.

Randall Residence of Tiffin is amazing. It has been wonderful. They have accommodated all my mom's needs. My mom has a hard time chewing because she lost weight and her dentures aren't fitting. They are making her food special. They let her cat come. They are amazing. It's clean, nice, well-staffed, and up-to-date. I went to several different places and my mom wouldn't even look at them. It's all one level, has a beautiful courtyard and wonderful administrative people and staff. She has a small studio. She wanted originally a larger studio, but my mom has COPD and she doesn't sleep in the bed. She sleeps in a reclining lift chair. COPD patients cannot sleep lying down, so she sleeps on a recliner. She doesn't need a bed in her studio and by the time we got her moved in, she has two good-sized chairs with ottomans. She has her lift chair, a large credenza with drawers, and a TV cabinet. They're even putting her TV on the wall for her and there is still a lot of room in this little studio. The showers are one level with the floor, so there's no lip to step over. They let you do whatever you want to the room within a reason, of course, but it is like her own home. Even all the staff refer to the room as her studio or her apartment. They paint ladies' nails on Mondays, they have bingo night on Tuesdays, they have a regular nail/hair salon there and they can do nails and manicures and pedicures, which my mom loves. They have a puzzle night. They have a beautiful courtyard that is getting worked on for the spring, and they have ice cream night on Mondays outside in the courtyard. They have raised garden beds for the folks that live in the community, so they can work in the bed as they like, and they can grow some of their own food and it's fresh and a lot of the people there seemed to like gardening, so that's been a big asset. They have reading groups, Bible study, and church. It is family-oriented beyond what I could have imagined 24/7. It's a lovely place. My mom would've never left her home. It would be like tearing her out of her house and she loves the Randall Residence. They can take cats. I don't know about any dog. Somebody has a bird, but I know they can take a cat.

I wasn't able to visit my dad at Seneca House, but I can take him out. He likes the place pretty well except for the food. They have activities and things available.

Seneca House has a lawn and a much nicer inner courtyard. There were benches, trees and grass in that area. We saw two different rooms which seem very nice, and they ranged from studios to the bigger ones. We had a resident come up to us unsolicited and tell us how much she likes it there. the dining room is very nice and they seem to have a lot of emphasis on good nutrition.
