Barnes Place

I toured Barnes Place yesterday with my younger brother, and I think that's going to be our route. There were a lot of positive points. The nurse who showed us around was very friendly. The different staff members that we ran into while we toured the building were extremely nice. The rooms that she showed us were clean. The place was clean. The cafeteria looked lovely. They have two different courtyards, and both are lovely. It's just a matter of paperwork to get my brother there. The reason I chose them is because I work here in Latrobe, and it was convenient that I could run up during my lunch hour and see him there, so that was my biggest draw to that place. The nurse said the food was wonderful and that they all ate it. It's a great place. I think it would be a wonderful place to place a loved one and feel confident that they were being taken care of. It looked like a resort, too.

My mother has moved into Barnes Place. It's close to where I live and my mom liked the idea that there was a little kitchen in the room. I liked that it was single-floor living. There were no multiple floors. The staff and everyone is very nice. Just the whole process was very nice. The staff was very helpful and answered all our questions. They made it a smooth transition for Mom. She is very picky, but the food is fine. Tonight, they had a New Year's Eve party. They paint, they cook, and they play games. There's a lot of activities. They're going on an outing in a couple of weeks to go shopping. There's a lot for them to do. We're pleased with it. Every single staff member that I have come across has been fine and my mom has liked them all. It's clean. She's having a good time and said that there's a lot to do.

Barnes Place was very nice. The setting wasn't quite as rural, and they didn't have as much property, but all the facilities inside were very nice. They had activities, a nice dining hall, and nice community areas. The apartments were nice. The staff was very friendly. They had a pretty good menu every day.

Barnes Place was nice and clean. I liked that the residents were out and active. Everyone was friendly and the residents were all well taken care of. The lady that gave us the tour was outstanding at communicating with us. They had a salon, restaurant-style dining, and they had a lot of outside courtyards.

My sister-in-law is at Barnes Place right now. We chose it for her because of the good care they provide, and because it was actually close to where I live. So far the staff is also good. They've all been very helpful every time I call them, or we've had any problems. I haven't seen her since because of the COVID, but I have an appointment to see her soon. The main problem for now is she's not eating, but they are already working with that. I don't have any complaints about the community. They are doing their job and they're doing their best for my sister-in-law.

Barnes Place was very nice, very clean, and up-to-date, and it had good lighting. The dining room looked like you're going to dine in a restaurant somewhere. They've only shown me 2 apartments and they're also nice and clean. The person who gave us the tour was named Stephanie, was very nice and gave us a lot of information. She also called us afterwards to find out what we're going to do. It's more modern, open, with more sunlight and so on. The apartments have their own little kitchen. It's like your own little room and you have everything you need.
