Review

There have been some recent changes at a care facility, as it has been purchased and is undergoing major upgrades. The previous reviewer visited the facility, Carriage Court, and noted that the halls were narrow, rooms were small, and the place was in need of cleaning. However, they expressed optimism that the new owner would address these issues soon.

On the other hand, another visitor had a positive experience during their tour of Carriage Court. They found the facility to be beautiful with bright and colorful walls. The community was well-lit and kept clean. Although they were unable to secure a spot for their loved one due to availability constraints, they still recommend Carriage Court based on their initial impression.

During the search for care options, a reviewer toured Carriage Court and had mixed feelings about it. They acknowledged that it seemed like a nice place overall with a clean environment and friendly staff. However, they did not appreciate the dining room setup which felt more like a cafeteria rather than creating a warm and homey atmosphere.

In contrast to Carriage Court, another personal care facility called Southpoint Personal Care in New Castle received high praise from an individual who had their uncle stay there. Initially, their uncle found it difficult to adjust to the new setting but eventually made friends with others residing there. He thoroughly enjoyed participating in various activities provided by Southpoint Personal Care. Additionally, this facility was always neat and clean.

Overall, these reviews highlight different aspects of each care facility visited or experienced by reviewers. While Carriage Court is currently undergoing upgrades and has some areas in need of improvement like narrow halls and small rooms that require cleaning attention, it did make a positive impression on one visitor who admired its bright ambiance. On the other hand, despite being clean with friendly staff members at Carriage Court according to another reviewer's observations during their tour; however, it lacked warmth and homeliness for them personally. In contrast, Southpoint Personal Care in New Castle received high praise for its neatness, cleanliness, and engaging activities that made the stay enjoyable for their uncle.
