"Inadequate Care and Unprofessionalism at Devonshire Assisted Living"
Families, please be careful! Devonshire assisted living has some problems. The owner, whose name I've removed to protect their privacy, does not go a great job of taking care of our older family members. Here are some issues I've noticed: 1. For every staff member at Devonshire, there are nine residents. The owner is overly involved in running things every day. 2. They don't have any licensed professionals on site. The caregivers, who just have basic training, are the only ones looking after the residents. 3. Prescriptions are given out by these caregivers, not by medical professionals. 4. There's no kitchen staff, so either the owner or these under-trained caregivers prepare the meals. They often don't wear gloves while doing this. 5. The state has fined Devonshire in the past. 6. I've asked for a food menu several times, and they never provide one. They serve whatever they feel like since there's no actual kitchen staff. 7. The owner has shouted and cursed at residents and their families and has even hung up the phone on them. 8. They are not responsible with money, often taking too long to cash checks or even shredding them. 9. If a case manager tries to get involved, Devonshire suddenly wants a new one, probably to avoid another fine from the state.

"Dismal Review Warns Against Unsupportive Assisted Living Facility"
Absolutely not! Bathrooms had no toilet paper. The head honcho could give out medicine, but she was often gone, leaving no one to help the residents. They'll give you false hope, promising that your family member is getting better. The team here can't even move patients around to prevent bed sores. They roped me into a 10-day plan that was pricier than a month's cost in other places based on my relative's illness. My advice: Don't put your family in here.
