    Review

    Highland View, a facility recently integrated into the Guardian Healthcare system, has garnered mixed reviews from families with residents living there. One family shared their positive experience regarding the cleanliness and overall atmosphere of the place. They noted that Highland View was immaculately clean, reflecting a high standard of hygiene and maintenance. Over the three months that their mother has been a resident, they have consistently observed attentive and caring staff members who go out of their way to ensure her happiness. This commitment to quality care is an encouraging sign for prospective residents and their families.

    The facility's culinary offerings have also received commendation from this family, who highlighted the wide variety of food available as well as its excellent preparation. The residents enjoy meals that cater to different tastes and preferences, which can significantly enhance their daily living experience. Additionally, Highland View provides an array of planned activities and church services, fostering community engagement among its residents. The reviewer expressed appreciation for the remarkable absence of negative behavior among staff; they reported witnessing no instances of impatience or rudeness towards residents during their frequent visits.

    In contrast to Highland View’s positive reputation is Highland Pointe Health and Rehab Center, where another family member is currently residing. Their review indicates a more neutral experience compared to Highland View. While they mentioned that the rooms are nice-sized and the facility maintains high cleanliness standards due to being relatively new, they pointed out a few areas needing improvement. The food at Highland Pointe was described as "OK," but it was served quite late at night, which could be inconvenient for many residents expecting timely meal service.

    Concerns about staffing levels were also raised in this review; it appears that there may be some understaffing issues that could impact overall care quality. Nevertheless, despite these shortcomings, the family's observation about friendliness among staff members remains a vital aspect worth noting—a positive attitude can significantly influence the atmosphere within a care facility.

    On the other end of the spectrum is a deeply troubling account from another reviewer who removed their mother from Highland View due to severe mistreatment allegations. This individual expressed disbelief at how such apparent misconduct could occur without intervention from relevant authorities or inspectors. They recounted distressing experiences involving bruises and cuts found on their mother when she returned home after her stay at Highland View—evidence they felt indicated gross negligence on part of the caregivers.

    Moreover, this reviewer indicated experiencing significant difficulties in discharging their mother back into personal care after what they considered mistreatment in Highland View’s hands. They narrated unsettling encounters with staff members characterized by deception and aggression rather than empathy or support during discharge discussions—a stark contrast to prior accounts emphasizing careful consideration for resident well-being.

    Ultimately, these varied experiences form a complex picture of life at both facilities: while some families report satisfaction with care provided at Highland View under Guardian Healthcare’s administration—highlighting cleanliness, attentive staff interactions, and culinary offerings—other accounts serve as grave warnings about potential neglect or mismanagement within similar systems meant to protect vulnerable individuals seeking eldercare support.
