I thought the place had a good level of care. I proceeded to have them come and do their so called assignment to place my loved one with them. I observed their question and answer session which was ridiculous to do to someone with dementia. Then they left telling me I would get a call the next day from them. I didn't receive that call at all. I Then made a call to them 4 days later only to be told several false excuses as to why we weren't a good fit. I Then spoke with the director the 5th day who basically upheld the false excuses and when I pinned her down on the fact that what she was telling me was false and they should Just be honest and say they can't care for my loved one properly. She finally did say they couldn't handle the care that was needed. The sad thing is I observed at least 6 or more residents that are in the same level of care that we need so by her omission I guess they aren't caring properly for those residents either. It wasn't a surprise when I found out they are in bankruptcy right now. I would steer very clear of this place.

True story: my loved one passed on the 22nd of December. I notified them I'd have my mom moved out by the 6th of January. I thought that was fair considering it was a holiday week. Nope. They are now demanding a half month's rent for the 6 days in January that her belongings were still in her room. I have paid a portion, what the estate can afford and they are still demanding the remainder. Bottom line, they are just a business trying to make a buck and compassion comes to a screeching halt once a resident passes away.

I moved my friend to the Fountain View Manor memory care unit last year and am very happy with the…read moresupport he received there. After suffering a quick series of debilitating strokes, my friend rapidly developed symptoms of dementia and required memory care services. I initially placed him in another facility in the Belleville area, but quickly realized that he was not receiving adequate care or supervision. I then moved him to Fountain View Manor and immediately noticed a dramatic improvement in the quality of care provided. The physical facility at Fountain View Manor was far more home-like and inviting and, even more importantly, the staff seemed much more involved and caring. Though all of the staff did a great job, Nurse John and Aide Latrice were especially noteworthy in the level of care they provided. It was obvious by watching them work and talking with them that they both cared deeply about the residents they supported. Both John and Latrice took the time to get to know my friend and learn what he liked and did not like. They showed amazing patience in the care they provided, even as his condition worsened and the dementia transformed my normally polite and courteous friend into a person who became verbally and then physically abusive. Despite his change in demeanor, the staff still treated him with compassion and dignity, while ensuring that he was not a danger to himself or others. Though my friend died earlier this year as a result of his progressive illness, I know that he considered the Fountain View Manor staff to be his friends and I am grateful for their dedication and for ensuring that his final months of life were as pleasant as possible.
