When walking it was a bit taken back, there are a lot of people using this facility! Unfortunately, it is very similar to what a hospital would feel and smell like. All patients are allowed 2 cigarettes an hour and that is just not enough for my grandmother! She very much dislikes that rule and can become fussy with the staff about it. Also, she does not have her own room, but shares a room with another woman. Furthermore the staff does not closely monitor what she eats and she is very likely to eat far too many chocolates! That being said, they do have a wonderful speech therapist there who is just a delight to work with. She treats everyone as equal and even jokes with my grandmother who just loves that kind of gestures. So, overall I do with that the actual place was nicer, but I do feel that the staff and the people that work with the patients are worth while. If I could I would have her at least have her own room and more frequent cigarette breaks, she is a grown woman after all!
