Fieldstone Memory Care of Silverdale

For me, it was great. My mother does not want to go back because she thinks she does not have memory issues (she does, but not as bad as many of those staying there), and she was frustrated that she could not talk to the other residents because most of them had high memory loss. The place always seemed clean to me. I heard no complaints on this from my mother. The staff were always nice, friendly, and helpful to me. My mother complained that they did not always believe her - she lost two pillows there, complete with pillow cases. We eventually got the pillow cases back, but not the pillows, when I asked. They did not believe her that she had brought them with her. From what I saw, the quality of care was good. My mother has 5 eyedrops she takes at night, this takes me over 20 minutes to dispense … she would complain that it would take up to two hours at the facility, because the caregiver would give her a drop, go tend to someone else, and then return for the next drop, rather than stay by her side the whole time. Mom told me the food was good. I don't know what activities were offered. I do know that there was a birthday party for another resident that my mother didn't attend because she was not specifically invited, so she thought that meant that she should not attend. It was expensive for the care, but I had peace of mind while I traveled. It was worth it for me, but my mother does not want to go back to this facility because it is a memory care, and she does not have high memory loss. She was frustrated when she told them what medicines she took when, and they did not believe her. My mother's objections to the place I think have more to do with her personal limitations which she refuses to recognize.

This is a brand new community and very nice. The staff is very attentive and works with my loved one and family to ensure our loved one's health is taken care of. The staff communication with the family has been great. The community is willing to work with the resident's dietary restrictions.

It is a brand new facility and so it's very clean and nice. The price was actually less than some other places that we looked into that were older. The staff are all extremely friendly and helpful. Out of all of the ones I looked at, this was definitely the nicest facility. Overall the care has been good and mom really likes all the staff and they like her. It is a great location as far as Silverdale goes so I can take her out. I would absolutely recommend Fieldstone to others looking.

This isn't the cleanest community. The portions of food are too large and they are wasting food in giving the residents too much to eat. We are getting more food than we can eat. The community has lots of activities for the residents to choose from. The community was charging a fee at first for a care my loved on wasn't receiving and now they were able to correct the fee for me. They are able to provide medication management and bathing assistance as care offered for my loved one.
