I can remember him driving people to go shopping down town Salem. I loved riding along. Not sure a person could get away with that now. My grandmother on my Mother's side worked here when they first opened. I have no memory of it because I wasn't born yet. This last August my Grandma from Dad's side moved in. I stopped in a few times to see her with my doggie's, and my Son's. I thought her apartment was really cute, updated, and clean. When you walk in you smell the food. It smelled pretty good. I was hoping to get a chance to eat a meal with my Grandma. The last time I stopped was mid September. I am glad I stopped. That was the last time I was able to spend with her. My Dad said the meals were good, he went to eat with her, and so did my Aunt, and Uncle. If I lived up there I would have been there a lot. I am just glad she was able to spend her final days some what close to home, and some what familiar.

The long-term care industry typically experiences a great deal of turnover, given the nature of the business, but once the upper management stabilized, there was more consistency with regard to staffing and care. We couldn't have been happier. My mom loved living there, she loved her apartment, she loved the staff, and she enjoyed all of the activities that kept her busy. My one suggestion is that the corporate dietitian be more involved in overseeing that the food is prepared and presented well. I witnessed over the past 1 1/2 years multiple resident complaints about the food. So this is an area I feel that could use some work. But overall, it was a great place for my mom, and feel blessed that Bonaventure was her home towards the end of her life.

My MIL lived with us for 4 years before having a stroke. She was placed in a group home but after a second stroke she needed a facility. I called many facilities but when I called GC I spoke with with Mackenzie she was so nice, understanding and compassionate. I told her all the issues with my MIL: dementia, stroke, macular degeneration, two-person toileting, wandering, and potential sundowner that Salem Transitional Care relating she had developed. She visited MIL at Salem Transitional Care twice. Mackenzie called and stated MIL would be a perfect fit for GC. She assured us that it would take her some time to adjust to moving again but that this was a normal process. She asked us to leave a down payment of $500 to reserve a room. We went over verbally on the phone the cost which was $4250 a month including showering, toileting, laundry, assisting to bed and wheelchair, assistance to dining room. She stated that the great thing about GC was that they never charged over $4500 a month. She knew that MIL was in a spend down period to then transition to Oregon Health Plan. A week before the move Mackenzie called said we needed to come down today to sign paperwork to hold MIL's room. I said "I gave you a deposit". She stated corporate wanted the paperwork signed before the end of the month. I presented that day with my 15-year-old daughter and 10-year-old daughter. I reminded Mackenzie that we did not have power of attorney to sign paperwork for MIL. I could write a check since I was on her bank account, but my signature would not be legal on the contract. She said they would have me sign and have MIL resign once she moved in. Mackenzie reviewed the contract with me, left blanks as she need to figure the pro-rated rent for February based on the day she arrived. She spent most meeting reviewing the section of the contract stating if we had an issue to consider mediation over hiring an attorney. Mackenzie also stated that if for any reason they felt MIL wasn't a good match once she moved in, GC would be responsible to find a new facility for her to be transferred to. We would not have deal with the stress of moving MIL again. I gave her a check for the amount she figured and a week later MIL moved in. Within a week of MIL being at GC I received a call from a team member early in the morning stating Mackenzie had been let go and we were behind on rent. I said "she just moved MIL in and we gave you the rent that we were told". The staff member said the charge was for January 2020. I said "she didn't move in until February". She asked me if I had a contract that I could provide them. I told the staff member "No, Mackenzie didn't give me a copy of what I signed because she was going to have MIL resign since she was her own legal guardian and what I signed isn't legal as we are not power of attorney". She stated they couldn't find a copy of the contract. I told her everything Mackenzie told me at our meeting and phone calls prior to moving in. The staff member contacted corporate and after a few phone calls back and forth everything was straightened around. One morning we arrived to GC to visit with mom. The day shift CNA took us aside and informed us that MIL had not been checked on the whole night by night shift and was covered head to toe in her urine in the am. She said she reported it to the new manager but since Mackenzie was no longer there, she wasn't sure what would be done since the management was changing. In the early part of March when COVID was starting to be an issue, I was called into a meeting with Jordyn to review her care plan. I had never heard about a care plan. Jordyn started informing me about how much they had to do for my MIL. Mind you, we were visiting her daily to every other day and were cleaning her appt, helping her with laundry, toileting etc. He informed me that we would need to pay an additional $3507.00 a month on top of $4250.00. I told him we were not going to be paying more as we were told by Mackenzie that $4500.00 was the max out of pocket. I told him he might want to get with corporate and get this figured out. He then told me that MIL hair needed to be cut because they need the residence to look put together and kept. If the credentialing board comes and walks through their facility and sees residences looking unkept they can get in trouble and it lowers their scores. I asked him if he had made her an appt at their hair salon since we were not able to take her from the facility to get her hair cut. I never heard from Jordyn again and then COVID hit and everything shutting down and we were unable to go to the facility. I assumed that he would be getting back to me so we could reach and agreement on the fees but I never heard from him.
