"Better suited for older residents, not younger ones."
The issue I have with Friénd's Home is that most folks here are way older than me. Like, they're mostly in their mid to late 80s. This place might be okay if you're an elderly person, but if you're younger like me, it's not the best fit.

"Welcoming Assisted Living with Caring Staff and Clean Environment"
I think this place is great for families looking for an assisted living facility. However, if your loved one is very active, they might not find enough to do here. The people who live here seem to prefer doing their own thing or just simple activities. They do have things to do, but mostly they play card games. My mom has said she'd like more variety, but she's mostly okay with the card games. The staff is really good. They are nice and caring and have been wonderful. The place is very clean. They do a really good cleaning every week, and they check every day, too. The common areas are always clean, and it smells nice when I visit. The food is good, I've eaten there a few times. My mom's only problem is that sometimes the food isn't hot enough. Overall, it's a good place for what you pay. I would tell others to think about coming here.

"New Director Neglects Residents and Prioritizes Personal Agendas"
Don't trust the sweet talk from the so-called "Leader" at this place or from anyone else there. This isn't the loving and friendly community they sell it to be. It used to be, but it's shifted since their new leader stepped in - she seems more focused on hooking up her pals with jobs versus caring for our parents. Many past residents and the original, caring staff have disappeared. The people who really knew my mom and took genuine care of her are no longer there. The decisions made seem to boost the director’s pride, but they're not for the good of the residents. Take caution if you're thinking of putting your parents here! It’s not as it seems. My mom lived there once upon a time and really liked it but started feeling out of place. She stated that the vibe and setting changed and it no longer felt like her home. Getting her out of there was the smartest move I've made!

"Wheelchair Inaccessibility Concern for Potential Future Needs"
This place doesn't allow wheelchairs. Even though my mom doesn't need one now, she might later. I don't want to move her.

"Small, Clean, and Comfortable Assisted Living Community, Not Full-Service"
It's nice, cozy, clean, and feels like home. The community is small but isn't a full-service retirement center.

"Mom Seems Happy and Comfortable Here"
Mom seems to enjoy living here a lot. She has adjusted pretty well and is doing fine. Her living space fits her needs well. She's making friends and joining in on the activities they offer. She hasn't complained about the food, so she must like it. The inside is kept very clean, and the outside has sitting areas where residents and family can visit when the weather is nice.

"Perfect Fit in a Familiar Place"
This place has been great from the start. It’s the most affordable option for us, and they moved us in right away. My mom has been happy since she moved in. The community feels nice and homey. I like that it’s simple and not too fancy. Everyone you meet is friendly, and my mom likes them. Plus, it’s in a neighborhood she knows, and her church is nearby too. It was a good move.

"Mom’s Happy Stay"
The staff, accommodations, food, and overall care were excellent. I would bring my mom here again because she was very happy during her stay. That says it all.
