They accurately assessed her level of needed assistance.The Deland Manor staff are patient and kind, even though they have to answer her questions over and over and over. We know our mom is correctly given her medicine multiple times a day, and a doctor even comes to the home once a week and checks on her. Everything she needs from PT, church activities, entertainment, crafts, you name it, can be done in house. I highly recommend Deland Manor Assisted Living for anyone who is in the position of having to put a loved one in a home.

I chose DeLand Manor Assisted Living. From the first moment we stepped inside we were cared for. The owners, Myra and Dennis Javier, are dedicated, educated, compassionate people. The staff all share their passion for caring and safety. My husband was in their capable hands. My worries were eased. The big smile on my husband's face is because we came inside from a walk and he saw Dennis there to greet him. The staff helps in dressing, grooming, bathing and feeding...all given with kindness and patience. We have come to love the good people at DeLand Manor. I recommend their facility and bestow five stars.

Do not under any circumstances put your loved one at Timberlane Lodge. My mother-in-law died after…read morea two month stay at Timberlane Lodge.i wrote this review the day after her funeral so it was all pretty fresh for me. I'll start with her unnecessary passing. Sandeep, explained that he'd told the nurse caring for her to keep the railing on her bed down so she would not have a sense of being trapped. Ok, but-- this is a woman who really cannot walk unassisted without falling. And when my mother-in-law got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, guess what? She fell and broke her hip. Why had they left the railing down on the far side of the bed that was narrow and hard to negotiate? Why was the alarm not clipped to her nightgown? If you are going to insist that her rail be down, insist that the alarm be clipped. She is not capable of taking that off; her fingers could barely hold her phone. She fell on a Sunday night and it took until Wednesday for her to be given medication. Apparently, Sandeep says, this is completely up to hospice (and I believe it is, but where is the advocacy). It's funny that when we wanted to install her at Timberlane Lodge they were able to get meds immediately to alleviate her anxiety. I came down from MA with a friend of mine, for a three day. We wheeled her outside onto the patio and we were playing and singing old time ukulele tunes. Two of the other three residents enjoyed our singing ( the third was non-responsive). The next day Sandeep said he was going to limit my visitation. It was 2:30 in the afternoon and I was not to come back until 8pm. He said, you're being here makes them feel bad because they don't have visitors. People need human connection. But he insisted we could not come back until 8pm, after she'd had her evening meds and basically was asleep. (Remember this is one of three days I was intending to be with her and shortly after she broke her hip due to their negligence.) As well, he said, I was not to come visit at meal times and I am to go from the front door straight to her room because the other residents don't want to have to see me. Please note that when I could, I was bringing her food (because their food is little piles of non-nutritive crap: canned vegetables and elbow macaroni in what looked like melted mayonnaise but was possibly runny cheese) and I was helping out by taking the time to feed her. When we were interviewing them to decide whether to put my mother-in-law there they said yes yes yes to all the things I inquired about. Could she sit with us in the lovely living room rather than the big TV room? Yes of course. My mother-in-law is a picky eater I told them. If we buy all the ingredients for the tuna salad she likes to eat -every single day- for lunch would it be too much for you to make it for her? It's nutritious and she loves it. Of course, we will be glad to. Did they ever make it? No. But when I came to make it were there cans of tuna anywhere: nope. And yet all the other cans of food that I had labeled with her initials were all still there. The Wolfgang Puck soups that she loves. None of them had been served to her. Recently a friend of hers told me that when she went there they told her we can't figure out what she likes to eat. I had, with Mr. and Mrs. Sandeep gone over all the foods she likes and will eat. I feel horrible for not believing my mother-in-law when she told me how mean Sandeep and his wife Sunita were. I kept telling her, he's nice, they are here to help you. And then, two days after she breaks her hip and has been given no medication for pain management he goes to move her from the chair to the bed and tells me not to worry when she screams because she's faking it! He literally told me that. I said "no, she has a broken hip please be gentle." This is a tough woman, I told Sandeep, a woman who has had an arm set with out pain medication. She has had root canals without Novocain. She is not faking it. She's tough and if she's expressing pain, she's -in- real pain. And at one point I was going to give her a gentle foot massage and when I took off her sock I noticed her foot was -completely- black and blue. When I pointed it out, Sandeep said, oh that's probably from her compensating for her broken hip and putting more weight on that foot. It's hard to believe Sandeep is a scientist. One would not have a foot that is completely black and blue from putting a little extra body weight on it. Besides I told him: wrong foot. It looked much more like it had been stepped on; I can't imagine how else. It's hard to picture it being broken from the fall. Do not let your loved one go to Timberlane Lodge.

We had an agency for a couple of years that was absolutely horrid! I knew they were awful, but kept hoping they'd improve. Finally we had enough and I happened upon Onyx. I can not express how thankful I am! This agency is all I had hoped for and more. The owner is a wonderful lady with excellent credentials. Unlike the last agency we had, she puts her caregivers through up to date training, and they are all so reliable and professional. When I call I'm treated with respect, so unlike the last agency. They were always unpleasant and hurried. They are nurses at Onyx, and their experience in the field certainly shows Her aide has been outstanding, and works extremely hard to help my mom. The last agency all the aides wanted was to be taken to a restaurant or watch television. I have been desperately hoping for a little help with my mom, and Onyx has provided more than a little, they are life savers!!!
