Review

The management staff of Southwood Healthcare Center appears to be unresponsive and uninterested in the concerns of residents, according to one reviewer. The reviewer states that after their mother passed away, many belongings were conveniently lost by the management staff. In a particularly disheartening incident, they returned an 80+ year old rosary in a broken state without any explanation. Considering the high cost of almost $10,000 per month, the reviewer expresses their disappointment and refers to the situation as a joke.

On the other hand, another reviewer has positive things to say about Southwood Healthcare Center. They mention that their grandmother enjoyed her time there and was active in participating in various activities. The convenience of its location and the friendly staff make it a great choice for them. The facility offers services such as church services and provides opportunities for children from Scouting organizations to interact with residents, which brings joy to everyone involved.

The affordability of Southwood Healthcare Center is also highlighted by this reviewer. They explain that although their grandmother had to sell her house to pay for it initially, once she ran out of money, she was able to apply for Medicaid and continue receiving care there without any issues. The cleanliness and security of the facility are praised as well.

Moving on to Kindred, another facility, a reviewer shares their experience after moving their father from a previous facility called Westridge. The transition was smooth as someone from Kindred immediately reviewed their father's condition at the other facility and approved him for admission. During a tour of Kindred, they were impressed by its beautiful environment filled with fresh cut flowers. Residents appeared happy and engaged compared to those at Westridge who seemed neglected.

The nursing staff at Kindred were described as kind and friendly by this reviewer. They ensured that the patient's room was clean and even allowed them to have a private room initially since they were new there. Various activities such as arts and crafts, singing, dancing, and physical therapy are available at Kindred. Additionally, family members are welcome to join their loved ones for meals in the beautiful dining room.

The reviewer further expresses their satisfaction with the level of care provided by Kindred. The staff fulfilled requests promptly, such as providing a wheelchair upon admission and attending to medication discussions. Personal grooming services, including haircuts and nail care, were also appreciated. After three months of being at Kindred, both the reviewer and their father continue to be happy with the facility.

In conclusion, these reviews provide contrasting experiences at different facilities. While Southwood Healthcare Center had disappointed one reviewer due to management issues and lost belongings, another reviewer had positive feedback about the convenient location, friendly staff, affordability, and enjoyable activities offered there. Kindred received high praise from a reviewer who was pleased with the cleanliness, friendly nursing staff, various activities available to residents, and exceptional care provided to their father.
