Autumn Leaves of Georgetown

I would not recommend Autumn Leaves.

Staff are super nice. They have had growing pains but I think they are fully staffed now. The food is great. My husband is very happy there.

5 stars for all! The staff are super nice and caring. Only one negative would be that I think they need someone to man the door, sometimes it takes a while for them to let me in when I ring the doorbell. Sometimes I have to ring several times. If staff is busy I understand the patient care comes first, but there needs to be someone assigned to let visitors in.

After much research and “trial and error at home care” we are so fortunate to have found the perfect fit for mom experiencing early dementia. Beautiful facility- we call it ’the resort’! Mom says food is very good with plenty of small snacks and four dining room meals. Housekeeping seems to be impeccable at this time. There is always friendly, happy, and caring staff available, and many activities she enjoys. Requests are always promptly handled. [name removed] is simply the best! I love that checkups, pt, ot, podiatry and vaccines are all available onsite! Mom has been more active physically and mentally and made new friends! I’m thankful Bader House made this transition so easy and she immediately felt at home. A friend of mom’s commented on pictures sent to me from staff at Bader House that I shared with her; “I’ve known your mother for over 30 years. I’ve never seen her this happy and I’ve cer

The staff is really great, it is a beautiful place. The meals and dining room are very pretty, very nice setting. But overall the staff are very friendly and always greet me.

I'm pleased with them. Even if they're not doing a lot, they're always together and they make sure that they are engaged with each other. He gets good care, no matter what suite you're living in. They are all memory care and they do the best they can because they're all a little confused. I'm overall pleased with them. He's had a couple of falls, but to no fault of the community. They made sure to notify me and sent him to emergency room, as they were unsure if he had hit his head.

The community has lots of activities and the food is really good. Even if my loved one doesn't go to the dining room they bring him his dinner. The community is compassionate, caring and they will work with you. I would recommend this community to others.

I have already recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The community seems to be very caring, they have a personal interest in the residents, the security measures are very good, and it is clean.

The management is good and caring and really wants to make a difference. The community is very clean and neat and the staff is very friendly. The atmosphere is great and they have lots of activities for the residence to do. I would recommend this community to others based on our experience.

My loved one has been residing at Autumn Leaves, Georgetown, TX for two years now. I knew this was the place for him when I first walked in the door. It has a very bright and open atmosphere. [Name removed], marketing director, was extremely helpful and supportive in guiding me thru the process. I have found the staff and management very helpful and respectful. It takes very caring and loving people to work with residents with dementia. I spend between 2-3 hours daily with my husband, so I see how things are run and what the caregivers have to go thru to keep things running as smoothly as possible. The food is always good and there are activities, mornings and afternoons for the residents to participate in. Music is always playing, and [name removed], the activities director, is always busy scheduling live entertainment for everyone to enjoy. My husband and I do a lot of walking, as the facility has large halls enabling room for walkers, wheelchairs and people walking. I like talking with the other residents and getting to know them and their families. It's just heart breaking when the disease wins the battle. This is a great facility for loved ones to live in, while experiencing their ending journey.

It's a lie! Everything that they have posted below in the description of their philosophy and practices is not true. We trusted them to care for my mother with dementia. She had been there for three years and in the beginning it was great for her because she could mostly take care of herself and was still walking around. She declined over the last couple of years and needs more help now. We had to move her because they didn't meet her care needs. Her room was trashed with multiple packs of opened diapers all over the place. Drink cups everywhere. Food left on the floor. Dirty clothes mixed with clean clothes. Instead of being patient and understanding of her dementia the care givers would get frustrated and neglect her. Their staff is not able to handle someone with dementia. My mother also suffers from post traumatic stress disorder and they were unkind to her.

My mother had been a resident at Autumn Leaves of Georgetown for almost three years, since August of 2016. In the early days of her stay there it was very nice. The rooms were kept clean and my mother was kept clean, dry, and comfortable for the most part. We had a few problems but as we made report of those problems the Executive Director and the Director of Healthcare were very compassionate and understanding. In each case where we felt that my mother was being neglected or mistreated we were given apologies and assurance that it would not happen again and for the following two years it didn't happen again. Unfortunately, over the last several months that hasn't been the case. The Georgetown Autumn Leaves facility is no longer able to maintain staff. From their healthcare team and caregivers, to their other staff, it's become a revolving door with almost complete staff turnover every few months. They have been without a nurse, or Director of Healthcare, since their last Director of Healthcare resigned in February and the care went downhill fast. We were so concerned about a situation of severe neglect, which endangered my mother's health, and was not addressed or corrected, and we were forced to do an emergency move out and move her into another facility. That is an extremely difficult thing to do with a person suffering from advanced dementia and loss of mobility. They promise to have nurses and well trained staff to take good care of your loved ones and this is what happened to my mother: she had been ill with something that almost took her away from us and left her unresponsive (unconscious) and unable to breath and blue except with constant oxygen which lasted for almost three days, from [date removed] through [date removed]. On [date removed] I advised my brother, who resides out of state, that his family needed to come down because we didn't think she would make it trough the night. During this time, even though my mother had been there for almost three years, not a single person other than one caregiver, offered any well wishes for my mother or showed us or my mother any compassion or sympathy. Luckily my mother did pull through and she came around on [date removed]. She was able to get out of bed again but with her hospice nurse's instructions: that she should be put into bed anytime she started turning blue or slumping over in her wheelchair; that the head of her bed needed to be raised to help her breath easier at all times when she was in bed; that they should administer a dose of medication to calm her if she became agitated because during that illness she developed a rash and was getting very hot and itchy to the point that she was scratching bad enough to break her skin and draw blood; that she have her oxygen on at all time when she was in bed; and that her hospice should be called if there were any issues or they needed help with her. On [date removed] at 12:15 we went to check on her and found her in her room being punished for being agitated and difficult. She was obviously hot and uncomfortable, and had become agitated. We were told that she kept kicking off her sheets and pulling at her clothing and rather than give her something to help her or calling the hospice for help, as they promised they would, they chose to strip her and her bed and just leave her alone and terrified to fend for herself without her oxygen or the bed raised even though she is helpless and completely at their mercy. She is not able to defend herself, or help herself, at all and is completely at their mercy. I write that because after my husband, and I, discovered her in that condition and demanded to know why they were treating my mother like an animal we were told that she had become very agitated and that they had done their best. 12:00 is mealtime so all the staff was in the dining room with the other residents and it took almost 15 minutes, and a second plea for help, before anyone showed up to help my mother. We reported the incident to the person in charge that day and assumed that they would take it seriously and follow up with us the following work day when management was on site. The following day no one did follow up so I called to speak with the person that they've been presenting as the person in charge of care. When I inquired about the situation and if anything had been done about it I was told, by the Executive Director who was listening in on the call, that she had a 'different view' of the situation and that she had been given supporting statements, by three people who were not even present during the situation, attesting to my mothers severe agitation and the staff having done their best. I told her that it was not acceptable for my mother to be treated that way and that I could no longer trust them to take care of her so I would be there immediately to move her out and she told me she was sorry that I FELT that way. She did not offer any apology for my mother being mistreated or jeopardized. She did not offer any assurance that there would not be a repeat of a similar situation. This has been hard to relive but I felt that I needed to post this so that I might help someone else avoid the pain of misplacing their trust which is very difficult when you become responsible for the care of your parent who never failed to nurture and protect you when you were a child. A parent with advanced dementia has the capability of a toddler and the roles very definitely reverse. I wish anyone else dealing with this the best of luck. On a happier note, we moved my mother to a wonderful new facility, [removed], which is co-owned, and operated, by a long time and truly compassionate nurse, and my mother has seen some real improvement. They are a blessing and we recommend them, without hesitation, even though we've just gone through a very scary situation.

Please beware of what you get with Autumn Leaves of Georgetown. They will not take care of your loved ones, even though they make good promises, and watch out of the management and office staff during the day. They do know how to speak and say the right things. Beware of the untrained staff, its an entirely different place at night and even worse on the weekends. Weekends consist of an average of 3 - 4 care givers for 40+ people. They are not patient to the needs of Dementia resident, even though they are a dementia facility, and will mistreat your loved ones. My loved one was moved after witnessing horrid condition inflicted on my loved one in the care of Autumn Leaves and the uncaring staff and director (Clara) only responed to our concern with a "Sorry you left that way, case is closed." This is what my loved one experienced in the care of George of Autumn Leaves. I reported this issue to corporate and they couldn't be bothered to even make a call back after speaking with the CEO's secretary ([name removed])

My Mom lives here currently and things seem to be going well. The building is kept clean, as is her room, and it’s a pleasant atmosphere. The staff is easy to communicate with and seem to know a lot about the type of care she needs. There are plenty of options to choose from in the dining area and there are plenty of activities available. Overall, our experience with this facility has been a good one and I would recommend them.

My loved one is doing really good at Autumn Leaves. It took him a month before he would talk to me and finally settle in. He has his routine going now and enjoys the food. Autumn Leaves was an excellent choice for his needs. The staff is really friendly and helpful. I have been dealing with [Removed] and she is excellent! I could not have asked for anything better and I would defiantly recommend this place to anyone interested.

Autumn Leaves of Georgetown exceeded my expectations of what memory care looked like for my mother. She is making friends and not only is she safe but has meaningful activities to engage in. It is such a beautiful home staffed with well trained caregivers who truly care about their residents. I was very nervous about how to accomplish this move but the caring staff helped walk me through each step. I appreciate all their experience and gentle coaching to help Mom settle in to experience this difficult stage of her life in a peaceful homelike setting.

My cousin is doing very well. The staff is very caring. The community is very clean and always looks good. Activities here are good. The food is tasty there is a wide variety. I would recommend to family and friends. Very good community.
