I was worried about admitting my mother to an institution but I will say that with this staff I don't have to worry about her care. Everyone here has been very helpful and assisted with any questions or concerns that I had. My mother says that she doesn't want to go any place else! The administrator Stacey Wallace is very professional and always available to me no matter what time of day it is. My mom loves all the activities Lisa Roman provides for her in room. I am also updating***it is now January 21st, 2026 and I am gonna brag on Lisa Roman again, she has yet again went above and beyond to make sure my mother that is in the care of this facility was able to speak to her grandbaby! She is a real keeper! And cares about the patients there.

The staff are really nice and provide good care. The activity director Lisa Roman plans really good activities and makes contact with me daily . The administrator Stacey runs a tight ship. The DON Ruby does an awesome job managing the CNA's. Therapy has done an awesome job getting me back to be able to walk. I'm going home today and have enjoyed my stay.

All the staff are good, friendly and attentive. I received good care here. Tiffany in housekeeping does an awesome job keeping my room clean. The food is good. Dietary manager Kiesha makes sure her staff are doing a good job in the kitchen. They always offer me other food when I don't like something. Lisa the activity director knows her job. She plans good activities we all love. She is always here for me when I need to talk. I love the DON Ruby she often checks on me. The administrator Stacey does the same. I would be comfortable living here if I need to but I'm going hope soon. Cuddles to all of you.

All the staff are very nice. It's a nice place to receive care. The administrator Stacey is very professional. She runs a tight shift. All respect her. All the nurses including the DON Ruby and April the ADON. Dietary seen to my special needs and wishes. I enjoy all the activities scheduled by the director of activities Lisa Roman provides. I will be going home soon and have enjoyed my brief stay. I wish I could have helped others like me but my current condition will not afford me to do so.

Great nursing home!!! Before my sister got to Applingwood, she was almost near death with a 4th degree wound. The wound care nurse, April took excellent care of her! She became completely healed! In the 2 years my sister was there, she’s gotten excellent care with ALL the nurses especially Ophelia. Even the wonderful Activity director, Lisa, kept my sister and the residents entertained with her excellent activities and care that only a professional director can only do! Even the office personnel kindly took care of all the paperwork that was needed for her stay there. They returned my calls whenever I needed them to. But everyone loved her like she was family! I have to take my sister be near me at a Delaware nursing home near my home. But I doubt she will get the kind of love and care she’s gotten at Applingwood Post Acute Care! Don’t hesitate to bring your love one here. You will be be very happy you did!!!
