Don’t be fooled by the beautiful facility, the lack of care and constant employee turn over is extremely stressful to the residents. They are unable to form personal connections with the staff because they are always getting new people or having agencies come in to cover shifts after everyone calls in. Staff would rather hide and be on their phones than actually help the residents. They offer the same activities every week rather than changing it up, even though no one goes to the activities they offer. My grandp moved to a ... read more

The review before this is so right on. Was hoping the new management would make a difference! And it is so traumatic to move a parent in memory care so these reviews are the only tool that families have to warn others & push for change. Concern sheets & meetings mean nothing when the director does not make sure personnel have work ethic & supervision. Example: so -called tour night -Thursdays 4-7 consists of managers & booze meeting with young friends in resident's cafe while residents are pleading to go out and walk in the ... read more

Those who can live independently in assisted living at this facility are fortunate. Those who live on the dementia unit (and those from the other 2nd floor who should be on the dementia unit or aren't able to live independently) need action to insure the care and safety they deserve. The investors of this community need to step-up and support management with trained personnel to give these residents the care they desperately need and deserve. Dementia-residents sitting in the dark, watching action movies from 7-10pm without ... read more

Some days there are good things at this home but basic care is not consistent. I left the 3rd floor today and an elderly visitor complained to me in elevator. She found a friend from church she was visiting, in unacceptable condition, as well as her bathroom, due to incontinence. This was a repeated situation for her friend, that I have also experienced with our loved one. This lady was so distraught, because she has found her this way before and talked to aides about it. These are residents who need specialized care and are... read more

Some signs of improvement of this home for the aged in the past few weeks. More staff visible, working and checking on residents. Beds are being made and hydration stations are cold & filled. Bringing residents out of their rooms to socialize or just be together in the beautiful, numerous sitting areas is still lacking. Doing a review on this site enables real change to occur and we thank this site & others for their service. This is such an important issue because many are afraid or unable to speak themselves. Keep checking... read more

Really wish it wasn't so, but this care home continues to decline. There is no supervision of employees that are caring for the elderly. The minimum is done for the residents. That is why you see residents with doors shut and care aides sleeping, watching tv, using cell phones, etc. Before putting your loved one in this facility visit often, unannounced and especially on weekends. When you give a review like this, the representative for First & Main asks you to contact the executive director. The executive director says his ... read more

Staff is untrained and uneducated. It feels like they grab anyone off the street. Staff call in sick all the time and are not covered so residents go unattended. If there is an issue it is ALWAYS the residents fault and the family must solve the issue as they have NO experience or interest in assisting the elderly. They behave as if they are doing you a favor letting your loved one stay there. You will pay for all the promised services and receive only the fraction they are willing to squeeze out. Oh and I know the response ... read more

DO NOT put your loved one at this facility! Staff is awful, no one knows what they are doing, good luck even finding a staff member on the floors, they are all sitting in a hidden staff lunch room when they should be out assisting the residents! This place is all looks and No performance, stay away from this place, it is a waste of a lot of money!
