What families are saying
Emerson House is a memory care community that has received mostly positive reviews from residents' family members and staff. The staff is praised for being caring, nurturing, and informative. The facility is described as having a homey dining room and offering a range of amenities including crafting, outings, and 24-hour visiting. The building is also noted for being secure and having three stages for different levels of care. One reviewer appreciated the facility's approach to grouping residents based on their care needs, which they believed led to more companionship and potentially slower disease progression. The building's design, which allows residents to walk continuously without hitting dead ends, was also highlighted. The facility's administrator, Erin, and the RN were commended for their understanding of dementia and their supportive approach towards staff. Erin was described as bringing humor and a familial feel to the team, and was praised for her hands-on approach. However, there were a few negative reviews. One reviewer claimed that the staff was neglectful and under the influence, while another was unimpressed with the facility's appearance and the fact that the nurse's aide on duty was not in scrubs. Overall, most reviewers recommended Emerson House for its caring environment and competent management.
