Review

Caring Outreach for Seniors is a facility that has been chosen by a family for their brother due to its proximity to their home. However, there are some concerns regarding the over-the-counter medicine policy. The family is required to provide the facility with a list of any over-the-counter medication their brother takes, signed off by his doctor. This process can be labor-intensive and time-consuming for them.

Despite this issue, the brother enjoys the staff at the facility. He does express a preference for a healthier diet and is currently working with the staff to adjust his meal plan to better support his heart health. The family is collaborating with the facility in reviewing and implementing his doctor's recommended diet.

However, there have been complaints about the cleanliness of the facility. While the brother has his own bath, unfortunately, the shower in his level is not working properly. As a result, he has to go downstairs to use the shower in the powder room. The family is actively working with the facility to ensure that this issue is resolved promptly so that he doesn't have to leave his level for showering.

Although it has only been a few weeks since arrival, it's important to note that there are positive aspects as well. The staff has offered to engage in stretching exercises with him, demonstrating their commitment to providing care beyond basic needs.

The remaining reviews highlight experiences from different individuals. One review praises Caring Outreach for Seniors and commends them for outstanding care and service. The reviewer mentions feeling comfortable leaving their parent in their care without worries and expresses gratitude for accommodating their low budget.

Another reviewer appreciates Caring Outreach for Seniors as a family-owned assisted living home that has taken exceptional care of their relative for over a year. They mention receiving assistance within their financial limitations and highlight how owners personally cover expenses like haircuts for male residents and hairstyling services for female residents out of their own pocket.

On the other hand, there is a negative review warning against taking loved ones to this facility. The reviewer claims that the caregivers and their spouse are unprofessional and prioritize money over the well-being of the residents. They criticize the lack of communication and small, potentially unsafe bathroom for senior citizens. Additionally, they allege that their relative was not properly cared for and often smelled like urine.

In conclusion, Caring Outreach for Seniors has its strengths and weaknesses based on these reviews. While some concerns have been raised about the over-the-counter medication policy, cleanliness issues, and limited facilities such as malfunctioning showers, there are also positive feedback regarding staff attitude and commitment to care. The remaining reviews highlight individual experiences with exceptional care and accommodating financial limitations while cautioning against certain aspects of the facility's management.
