Overall Review of Edgewater Woods

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Phone access and call-light delays

Some residents and families describe long waits for help by phone and call light.

A few reviewers say they had trouble reaching the facility by phone, including times when the phone would ring without being answered and calls were not returned. On the skilled unit, one family member described call lights taking far too long to get answered, which they linked to falls. Another reviewer said they could not get someone to let them in and could not get through by phone when they were trying to visit. These reports don’t match the calmer experiences described elsewhere, but they are consistent enough to be a recurring concern.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Odors and cleanliness concerns

Several reviewers mention noticeable odors or cleanliness issues.

One reviewer described the facility as consistently smelling of urine, and they also raised concerns about how often rooms and bathrooms were cleaned. Another described hallways smelling “real bad.” A separate positive review contrasts this by saying they did not notice odors and that the building felt cleaner than some other facilities they compared it to.

In both accounts, the staff experience is the main reason given for why they would recommend the community.
