Overall Review of Hickory Creek At Franklin

caveat 6 reviews mention this

Cleanliness and odors come up

Residents’ families describe both a clean facility and, in some accounts, persistent odor and dirt concerns.

Some reviewers say the facility is clean and that room cleaning impressed them. Other families report strong cleanliness problems, including smelling bad, gnats, and an overall environment that did not feel organized or supportive for recovery. Those negative accounts also describe needing to step in to handle issues that staff should have addressed. Taken together, cleanliness is a mixed experience in the reviews.

common 7 reviews mention this

Staff communication is praised

Many reviewers highlight responsive, communicative staff and frequent attention to care needs.

Several families describe staff as friendly and quick to respond, with open communication between the community and loved ones. One reviewer specifically praised frequent attention to care and the attentiveness of primary caretakers. Others also mention that staff listens to family concerns and keeps people informed. A few negative reviews contrast this by describing situations where questions went unanswered or help was not timely, but the positive communication theme appears repeatedly.

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Some care failures are reported

Some residents experience serious care breakdowns that families say required repeated follow-up.

A subset of reviews describe situations where families had to step in to handle care tasks that were expected from staff. These accounts also mention incidents such as falls and medication-related problems, along with concerns about how call requests and patient needs were handled. One reviewer describes lack of responsibility and attention to patient needs after surgery, while another recounts events that led to emergency care and further procedures. The reviews differ widely, but the recurring concern is that basic care did not always meet expectations.
