Care plans aren't followed because staff are overworked and have to fill multiple roles. Nursing staff doubles as wait staff in the dining room. Good luck getting anyone to help you at or near mealtime. There hasn't been a housekeeper for months. Emptying trash cans, vacuuming, and cleaning resident rooms are a low priority. Another job for nursing. The ice machine and laundry machines are constantly out of order. It's great having a facility bus for appointments, but a majority of the time there's no one to drive it or it needs repairs. I wish I could move. I'm not getting the care I pay for.

My husband recently stayed in the Memory Care Unit. The first night he was there, they called to…read moretell me he hadn't eaten very much for dinner, and asked if there was something special they could fix that might tempt him to eat. That is just an example of the kind of care my husband received while he was there. I have nothing but praise for the staff. They were kind, concerned, competent, and kept a close watch on him. He had previously been at a different facility, where I dreaded leaving him. With Stonecrest, I could finally breathe, knowing he was being well taken care of. I will be recommending this place to everyone I know. Do yourself and your loved one a favor and go to Stonecrest. And don't worry that it will be out of your price range just because it's lovely and is well-staffed. The pricing is competitive with all the other places I checked in the Northland (and I checked a lot), including the ones I wouldn't want my worst enemy to live in.

They do outtings and events and they have TVs and good places for people to sit. The building is very secure and all precautions are in place. I loved this place and my grandfather was here for 5 years. I would recommend it to anyone facing the hard decision of where to move their loved one.

Our 92 year-old father/grandfather/father-in-law chose Parks Meadow for moving into a senior…read morefacility last Fall (2022). He eventually moved to Parks Meadow in January of 2023; however, it was recommended that he reserve his unit by paying the December 2022 rent. Unfortunately, soon after his move he became ill, hospitalized and passed away in mid-February, 2023. His stay at Park Meadows was only 3 1/2 weeks (late January to mid-February). The family paid March rent as we needed time to remove his belongings from the unit. In all, we paid 4 month's rent for his short stay. Another part of his "singing" up for Park Meadows was a "one time non-refundable" Community Fee - in this case $10,000 listed on page 40 of a 52-page lease agreement. It was explained that the Community Fee would lower his rent over his stay at Park Meadows. The family requested that Park Meadows refund at least part of the Community Fee. as his unit was only used a short time and he did not get a chance to use dining or any other facility amenities. Obviously, the family is very disappointed, and surprised, on the position Park Meadows is taking. Although there is no legal recourse, we find it unethical for Park Meadows to keep all of the "Community Fee" as his residence was so short in time. In speaking to the business officer at the facility, she could only say "it's out of my hands" and "I completely understand". In the end, it feels like a 92 year old man was taken advantage of with a very long and detailed lease agreement and an insensitive corporate entity.
