Allendale Senior Living Community

I toured the community and I was pleasantly surprised. everyone was very friendly and attentive. I was there during lunch time and the meals were attractive and smelled amazing! I love the all-inclusive pricing no other facility around the area offers all-inclusive. Definitely I will be moving my loved one into Allendale.

There are various parts of this community, my loved one was in the assisted living and memory care. The assisted living is better than the memory care. The assisted living provides better service. The memory care is more difficult for the staff; however, they are quite good. I fell the staff is overworked and there is not enough staff. I was not happy with the overall supervision of my loved one. My loved one had sepsis while the community. There were questions over where my loved one would be placed. The Head Nurse stated that they wanted him to go back to his private room, due to the memory care and medical issues. My loved one at this point, couldn't walk. I felt the memory care unit felt like an asylum. I understand that is very difficult and very expensive to care for these residents. I couldn't allow my loved one to go back there. So I decided to put my loved one in hospice. I feel like the staff were friendly and nice. I really liked the staff and nurses. I just didn't care for the Head Nurse. The Head Nurse didn't have empathy towards the residents. She felt it necessary to throw him into a room without the bed and this is after him moving from the Assisted Living from Memory Care. I was able to find someone in the Assisted Living area to find a bed and get my loved one settled. This experience affected my opinion on the community with the memory care and medical unit. The director who handled the finances was very helpful and nice.

Clean, Well maintain community, knowledgeable staff, clean room and plenty of activity’s.
