Unsafe and dirty

My father in law was able to get out of the facility on Saturday and walk the streets for hours before a trimet bus driver called the police. We were notified hours after he went missing. With him having dementia this could have been really bad. The facility is in a really bad neighborhood and the streets are super busy. When the police escorted him back to the facility around 9pm that night he had a big cut on his eyebrow and his fingertips were cut. Theyvdidnt seem concerned at all and later we found out this isn't the first time he got out. Today we went to check on him and his room smelled like urine really bad. I pulled back the blanket on his bed and sure enough the mattress had a huge urine stain and so did the underside of his blankets. Unbelievable how these elderly people are treated. Please don't send your loved ones here.

Not very happy with how things are going!!

I am not very happy with how things have been going at this community for my dad. There has been a few miss communications and the staff seem to always be taking the easiest rout instead of the right way to do things. For example my dad really wants to walk him self to the dinning room since he is able and they will not let him. They make him sit in his wheelchair and push him because its faster then taking the time to patiently walk with him to his meal. I just am not happy overall and hope to see some improvements soon or else I will be making some changes.

Frequently Asked Questions about Firwood Gardens

Firwood Gardens offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and Semi-Private. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Firwood Gardens 1 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
