Overall Review of Tender Care Adult Residence
caveat3 reviews mention this
Bed bugs raise serious concerns
Some residents and families report bed bugs and related sanitation breakdowns.
A small group of reviewers specifically call out bed bugs in the memory care setting, including one claim that residents were returned to the same room without fumigation. These comments are strongly negative and repeat the same core problem rather than describing a one-off issue. If youâre touring, residents suggest paying close attention to cleanliness and pest-control practices.

Billing and pricing feel confusing
Several reviews describe billing problems and unexpected fees.
Two reviewers raise concerns about charges that didnât match what they agreed to, including late fees and incorrect pricing appearing on bills. Another review also describes ongoing charges after a loved one passed and notes the need to remove belongings promptly. Together, these comments suggest families should review invoices carefully and confirm changes in writing.

Bathing and hygiene needs attention
Some residents werenât receiving the hygiene support families expected.
One reviewer says bathing wasnât happening daily as expected and describes bathing only twice weekly, linking this to repeated UTI concerns. Another comment says care seemed inadequate with changing routines, and a separate review describes a lack of dignity-focused care for people in memory care. These themes point to hygiene and scheduled personal care as an area to discuss during tours.
