I have been a Resident of Beechwood for over six years, but at this time of pandemic and destructive weather events I especially appreciate the "peace of mind" it allows me. Not having to worry about handling details of a healthy and safe environment is a blessing.
For the level of care that they provide I think Danforth Adult Care is an excellent place, but it won't be the best fit for everyone. They are an assisted living facility, so if your loved one does not need to be watched closely and just needs some general assistance this is a very nice place. The staff is friendly and professional, and the administrator has been very helpful! Unfortunately my loved one needs a bit more care than what they provide, so it has not been the best fit for us. There is also an alarm system that the staff use to keep track of the residents that goes off fairly often, and is fairly loud, which has been stressful for my loved one who suffers from PTSD.
Before going to Canterbury House, our mom was in an overpriced Senior Living facility where there was a constant turnover in management, many of her needs were not met and her safety was in question (ie: her egress wasn't shoveled or cleared, mold in closet, etc) Since finding Canterbury House (thanks to a recommendation from "A Place for Mom"), our mother couldn't be happier. She has a very comfortable mall studio apartment and is still able to live independently. IT is a small community, so residents know one another on a friendly basis. Our family knows the staff by name and they are very helpful and attentive to our mom. [Name removed], the manager, couldn't be more amicable or professional! He greets all with a positive attitude, warm smile and is very helpful to all. Residents are served three meals a day. The portions are a good size for the elderly. Our mom is a very poor eater--a bit fussy, too--yet she has never gone without a meal. The staff is willing to make her a sandwich or some other simple meal is she is not in favor of the main meal. Mom is legally blind and hearing impaired, so there isn't much she can do to enjoy herself. Yet, when it's time for bingo, the cards are HUGE and she is able to play one of her favorite games. Even if only one or two other residents come for Bingo, the staff willingly sets up and calls the numbers for the group! Throughout the year, local artists/ musicians come to entertain the residents, which is something our mom truly looks forward to! Even at 93, she is always excited to get up on the floor to dance--with or without a partner! Considering the exorbitant costs of most senior living communities, Canterbury is very affordable and well worth it! It has not only provided our mother with a safe, comfortable and quality of life--it has give her family peace of mind!
