Overall Review of Saint Mary S Manor

caveat 10 reviews mention this

Understaffing affects day-to-day help

Residents and visitors describe staffing levels that make it hard to get timely help.

Multiple reviewers say the facility is understaffed, including moments when they cannot find anyone to assist. Others describe delays getting basic responses, such as unanswered phones, unavailable entry help, or long waits for transportation pickup. Some reviews also describe broken call systems and staff milling around without clearly assisting.

caveat 9 reviews mention this

Cleanliness and odors raise concerns

Several reviewers report dirty rooms, ongoing messes, and strong unpleasant odors.

Many reviews mention cleanliness problems ranging from dirty rooms and laundry left out to foul odors described as urine. Some reviewers also describe more severe hygiene issues during care, including reports of residents left in filth and bodily fluid present. A smaller set of comments also note cleanliness and good lighting, but the overall theme of neglect and poor housekeeping shows up repeatedly.

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Dining quality is inconsistent

Dining draws mixed feedback, with some residents described as well fed and others reporting very poor meals.

One reviewer describes fruit and salads being inconsistent and mentions issues like partially frozen food. Another says the food was terrible, including cold meals and food that did not meet expectations. A separate review states their family member was warm and well fed, and another mentions daily mass in the same comment set, reinforcing that experiences vary. Overall, dining quality appears uneven across resident experiences.

common 6 reviews mention this

Some caregivers are truly supportive

Even amid complaints, several reviewers praise nurses and aides as caring and responsive.

Positive reviews consistently highlight nurses and aides for being attentive, caring, and comfortable to work with during visits and rehab. One reviewer describes high levels of comfort and personalized attention from specific staff members. Another says the staff was friendly and caring and helped visits feel less difficult, while a different review says their mother was warm and well cared for. These comments show that residents may also experience strong support from individual caregivers.

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Management and accountability concerns

Reviews raise concerns about administration responsiveness and accountability for care issues.

Several reviewers describe problems being dismissed or handled in a way they felt was unfair, including disputes about care decisions. Other comments mention frequent leadership turnover and a lack of responsibility when concerns were raised. One detailed review also alleges documentation and communication failures during medical support, while still acknowledging some staff members as better than others. Together, these reviews point to strain in how concerns are addressed at the management level.
