Pros Planned activities Visual stimulation with mini pigs, dogs, aviaries, Cons [removed] Belongings lost Belongings shown no respect Through lack of care, mother developed a very bad bed sore when a wheelchair was necessary for getting around Not enough care givers and much turn-over

Peregrine's Landing is an older facility and has done everything possible to meet my mother-in-law's needs. She is in the final stage of life and requires 24-7 oversight. They have done everything to make her last days comfortable. Unfortunately, other residents are able to enter her room and take items that belong to her. We has brought this to management's attention several times and they try to control tis problem. However, items continue to be taken. They do make sure to check on the patients and do emphasize personal care. They are open to all suggestions and have good communication with the family. I would recommend this facility for any memory care needs.

This isn't a comparison to others in the area, since I haven't had experience with communities there, but just a description of the experience we've had so far. I feel like they have done a good job so far, overall. The staff have all been very friendly, and I appreciate that they've been willing to work with me on ways to resolve any issues my loved one has been having In addition to the regular sorts of things one would look for in memory care I was interested in two specific requirements: I wanted somewhere where Mom wouldn't feel claustrophobic in, and I wanted the community to have a good social atmosphere. Peregrine's Landing met both of these needs. They have an open set-up where the community is secure, but the residents are free to roam within the facility. They've also got a large secure outdoor area (which hasn't been accessible to them due to the weather, thus far.) There are a good number of residents still at a social cognitive level, so my loved ones social needs are being met as well.

The caregivers staff are what make this place special, however; they are grossly unstaffed which impacts the overall quality of care. The leadership team lacks experience and communication with family members unless you request information or updates. The place has a very strong oder which could be managed but again, the lack of appropriate staffing levels makes this difficult. There is a lot they say they will do but it does not happen unless you persist which is annoying when you're already dealing with the stress of having to place a loved one into a facility. Having then to worry they they receive the appropriate level of care makes the stress even more challenging. It's sad that our country has accepted that it is okay to not give the best possible care to our elderly because corporations only care about profits and not people. I hope my journey in life does not require me to live in one of these facilities. It makes me depressed every time I visit my family member.

The common areas here are always very clean, although I feel like they could spend a little more time on the individual rooms. They also do a good job overall with the care, although we've had some issues with specific services. My loved one receives his medicine through the VA, and there have been some mixups which have been difficult to clear up due to a language barrier with the staff. There have been difficulties communicating with the staff in general, the director isn't great about returning emails. I will say that Joe Cline has been a pleasure to work with and always gets back quickly, however.

Very professional. Great program. Extremely expensive!

loved Joe, [removed] Facility is dark and dirty. smelly. Rooms are very small. no way

Advantages separate levels of care,perform activities for levels of care cost is low lots of walking area drs come to examine residents kitchen help resident gather together Provide outside service to take mom to water aerobics Disadvantage Can hire sitter to take mom to water aerobics, outdoor gardening, but not very defind, Not as pretty, no memory care pets around the area no plants Questions Do they go on outings eg lunch, xmas lights

Liked that it was all memory-care. Appreciated the programming. It felt a little sad when walking around. Did not see any engagement of staff and residents.
