Dunlop House

My dad fell and hit his head and it was never reported he was not bathe properly..he lost so much weight the staff was not attentive the rooms are a nice size and clean the head staff change so much u can't keep up.

We have visited Dunlop House several times because my mother has friends there who recommended the place. We met with the administrator, who was very positive, warm and friendly. We toured three different types or room. They didn't have expensive amenities but they had was an open and bright central area where everyone congregated with a skylight, so it's very warm and fresh. It's not so much an active place where they're always on the go, but they do have transportation to different events and doctors. They also had medical people in-house. The population was more older than active. The place was refreshing, very accommodating, and all on one level.

Dunlop House is very comprehensive in the services that they offer. It is a lovely community, and it is close by. The only drawback is the expense; it is terribly expensive. The staff is very kind and attentive, and they seemed trained to be more hands-on and knowledgeable about some of the questions that I’ve heard people asking and that I had mentioned to me. They seemed to be generally involved with the residents, more so than a lot of places I’ve seen in the past. The rooms are lovely, and the residents and their families decorate them themselves. They are roomy, convenient, and they seem to be adaptable to all their needs, handicapped and such. They are user-friendly. One thing, a gentleman who was the principal of our school had his wife there, and he wanted to bring in some Ensure liquid supplement, but they wouldn’t allow him to do so. They had to use their own which was about $2 more expensive, so he wasn’t happy about that. But that is about the only negative thing I have ever heard.

Dunlop House was a great place and immaculate, but it wasn’t the right fit for us. We didn’t fit the culture, and it was all on one level. We looked at three rooms that all fit our criteria. The double room was beautiful, big, and spacious.
