Review

A Place to Call Home Elderly Care is highly recommended as a perfect and affordable place for Mom. According to one reviewer, their Mom has been living in this private assisted living home for over a year and they feel truly blessed to have found it. With a maximum capacity of only 6 residents, it offers a loving staff who treat residents like family. The care provided ranges from independent living to hospice, ensuring that residents receive excellent care no matter their needs. Families can find peace of mind knowing that their loved ones are in good hands.

Another reviewer shares that their mother was a resident for almost two years and praises the top-notch caregivers at A Place to Call Home. They emphasize the sense of becoming part of the family, even after their mother's stay ended. This reviewer believes that this facility is an excellent alternative to nursing homes, as it truly becomes the residents' home where they have control over their daily choices.

However, not all reviews are positive. One review warns potential users to beware of billing issues at this facility, stating that they were charged for more days than their mother was actually there and were not reimbursed. The reviewer claims that these actions resulted in the rapid decline of their mother's health, ultimately leading to her passing away due to being moved multiple times caused by the facility's actions. They express disappointment with the handling of dementia patients and consider the staff unprofessional.

On a more positive note, another review highlights the cleanliness and beauty of A Place to Call Home, expressing excitement about having their fiancé's mother call this place home. This suggests that aesthetics play an important role in creating a welcoming environment for residents and their families.

Many reviewers praise the facility, owner, and workers at A Place to Call Home as exceptional in providing care for loved ones. They describe it as more personable than commercial facilities and cannot find enough superlatives to explain how wonderful it is.

Overall, most reviews speak highly of the service, caregivers, and overall atmosphere at A Place to Call Home. Families appreciate the personalized care, availability of the owner for questions, and alternative to larger nursing homes. However, it is important to take into consideration the negative feedback regarding billing issues and handling of dementia patients mentioned in one review.
