Review

The Matthews of Horicon seems to be a place that many residents enjoy and consider it to be like home. The overall experience is positive, with individuals expressing their satisfaction with the care they receive. The staff members are generally considered to be attentive and accommodating, although some reviews mention that there is a slight issue with understaffing.

One aspect that stands out in the reviews is the appreciation for the activities provided. Residents enjoy socializing and engaging in games together, which adds to their enjoyment of living at the facility. However, there are a few mentions of wanting more variety in the activities offered. It seems that the community could benefit from expanding its range of options to cater to different interests.

There were also comments regarding the food at The Matthews of Horicon. While some reviewers express contentment with the meals provided, there is a recurring suggestion to cook vegetables longer. This feedback indicates that there may be room for improvement in ensuring all aspects of meal preparation meet residents' preferences.

Independence is valued by many who reside in this community, as they mention not needing much assistance in daily tasks. However, some residents express a desire for occasional help with cleaning or other household chores. It would seem beneficial for staff members to offer limited assistance when necessary, allowing residents to maintain their independence while providing support as needed.

In terms of accommodations, it was mentioned that one reviewer has one of the smallest rooms available. Although they didn't mention any dissatisfaction about this particular aspect, it's worth noting that room size may vary among residents. Additionally, payment details are unclear from one review but suggest higher costs associated with staying at The Matthews of Horicon.

Regarding family opinions on the facility, one reviewer's mother-in-law resides there and enjoys the homey feeling and activities offered. However, they do mention being dissatisfied with understaffing issues. These mixed experiences indicate that improvements could be made regarding staffing levels to ensure consistent quality care for all residents.

In summary, The Matthews of Horicon appears to have a generally positive atmosphere with residents enjoying the sense of community and engaging activities. However, there are some areas where improvements could be made, such as increasing the variety of activities, ensuring vegetables are cooked adequately, and addressing understaffing concerns. Overall, individuals seem content with their living situation at the facility.
