One day I met an exceptionally compassionate nurse at Wildewood Downs. She was attentive to my…read moremother-in-law's concerns about the eyedrops they give her which sting. Before I could bring up the issue, she quickly said they had been ordered already. Shortly thereafter, she delivered the gentler option, ordered by her doctor, refresh eye drops. She showed genuine care over what might seem like a minor issue. She held mom's hand, as if this small task was of great importance, as it was to mom. When I told her the Dry Eye Institute also prescribed Optase after testing, she assured me they would administer it also. Other staff were helpful, directing me to speak to the nurse. This nurse's dedication stood out. Based on her actions, I'd rate her 5 stars. Thank you to the nurse on duty at 3:00 p.m.--job well done! " Also, last week, Wildewood Downs heeded the doctor's advice and our request for a private room and an elevation chair. They have a manual one, due to patient safety, that must be pushed back to elevate my mother-in-law's legs. But it's nice and soft. Still, I would like her to have a walker outside therapy, at least when the caregiver is there to use the belt. But she is making progress in physical therapy, and the therapist assisted her in walking on the walker down the hallway to the assisted living section. They give her occupational and other therapy and seem to be caring a lot more about her well-being. She seems content with the room change. This brings the rating to four stars. Don't look for big things. Just do small things with great love." (Mother Theresa).

I highly recommend Amara Place for anyone looking for an independent retirement community for themselves or a family member.

We were pleased with his level of care & the attentiveness of the care staff. I was pleased with their level of communication - they ensured I was in the loop regarding what was going on with my father. He adjusted well and we felt confident his needs were being met. He moved to the Memory Care unit (MC) a few weeks ago and seems to be thriving in this new area. The level of care is different, but still great! I have no doubt my dad is in the best place for his needs. I would definitely recommend the Presbyterian Community. The only less than positive thing I can say is the facility is quite dated and is in need of being updated. But, the facility is safe, clean and appropriate.

The DON and ADON were both unprofessional with how they communicated to me (a guest), as well as the employee. Not only were the attitudes of the management unprofessional and unpleasant, as was the attire being worn throughout the building.

If the other workers have to come in with a uniform on, and still looking professional, then that example should be being set by upper man. The lack of care is becoming visible more and more as I visit. This place needs to be investigated by the state.
