The Villas at The Cedars is a beautiful facility and has some of the best staff I've ever seen. Everyone who works there is extremely caring and extremely attentive to each resident knowing them all by name and knows them all on a personal level while ensuring they are getting the best care they need. I highly recommend sending your loved one here if they need a higher level of care.
Just a quick post about what I’m thankful for. First of all… Obviously, I am thankful for my family, close friends. I am thankful for what I have in life. I am thankful that for half of my life, I was able to spend every day and holidays with my soulmate. And today I am especially thankful for the people that care for Mom on a daily basis so that we don’t have to worry. How special is it that I got a phone call this morning asking if there was anything in particular that we wanted mom to wear for Thanksgiving. Mom can be a little fussy and particular about her looks. Lisa is picking her up in about 45 minutes and they wanna make sure that she looks like she would want to look. Whatcha m’naker and Keith/Geese are actually even curling her hair and putting make up on her… something they are absolutely not required to do. When I first brought Mom to the nursing home, I was so overwhelmed and sad and frightened. All those feelings and emotions were quickly erased. The building is not the newest or the fanciest. But the food is good and the staff is even better. There are many of them there that I don’t even look on as staff anymore… But friends.  Thank you, thank you, thank you. You are so very appreciated .
Junk all over the front yard for a couple years now. Quite the reflection of what is happening inside. 7.16.24: I am responding to the Administrator...what can you do to make it better? CLEAN UP the junk! It's still there as of 1/2 hour ago. It's been there for over a year. I am talking about the book case and the Nurses sign. This is a great reflection on what is inside...junk? I would be so embarrassed to call myself an Administrator and leave crap all over. July 27 24 update. After a year of complaining the bookshelf has been removed from the entryway of this nursing home. But it appears Cedar villas only do things 50%. There is still garbage underneath their main sign that has been there for a year and appears that it’s going to be there for quite some time. Quite a reflection that this place must only be doing things50%. They responded as if they wanted to talk to me and yet they won’t clean up the junk and crap in front of their place that I have to go past every Day. 8.17.24…..So the nursing home picked up half of the junk out front but I guess it’s gonna take another year or two before they pick up the rest of the junk. There is a sign that’s been laying on the ground for about two years now maybe four. Maybe the city will send them a note to tell him to pick it up when I reach out to them. Pick up your junk! What a reflection on the leader ship there. I’d be embarrassed to call myself a manager over there with the junk outside. And by the way why does leader ship need me to call them to discuss their junk outside. Really clean it up for god sake
I don’t understand all the negative reviews. My brother in law was there in hospice care for over two months and received compassionate and timely care during the entire time there. Grace Hospice provided excellent adjunct care. We were there often and the staff always responded in a timely and professional manner. The facility is always clean and all safety precautions were taken. He did fall out of bed once but did not injure himself and we were called promptly. I can’t speak to the meal service because my brother in law quickly became too ill to eat much. I can highly recommend this facility to anyone seeking care for their loved one.
There are some great, caring, dedicated staff at the Cedars. Many caregivers who are excellent. Like so many places there seems to be a staffing shortage. My husband being non-ambulatory often waited over a 1/2 hour for his call light to be answered. The building is not well maintained, and areas are not clean. When husband was moved to the second floor, where the care was better than 1st floor, the room had dust bunnies on the windowsills and cracker crumbs in the corner. The bed side table was so bad the drawers where unusable. At discharge the case worker dropped the ball in setting up home oxygen and wanted us to stay another night paying out of pocket. Wrong health information was given to the homecare agency. If a loved one ends up here, (we had no other choice) stay on top of things, check everything daily. File complaints when necessary.
