LUCKY TO BE AT FRANCES MANOR
“My mom currently lives at Frances Manor. This place is really outstanding. Most importantly, it is a cheerful and loving environment. My mom is very demanding and the staff deals with her in such a sweet and helpful way, and that is not easy! Their philosophy is that this is a second home. We visit often and always talk to all the residents, not only my mom. They are smiling and content. On Sundays, a pianist plays, and the residents enjoy that. They play cards, and sometimes sit outside for sun and fresh air. There are many staff people and often more staff than residents. If you are considering a board and care facility, you should go over and see for yourself. Nothing is perfect, and my mom didn't like that dinner was served very early. Now, however, she's the first to sit down and waits for the others. I visit several times a week unannounced, and I am always welcomed. Also, the place is clean, cheerfully decorated, and I am especially happy with the staff. I didn't even know about this kind of set up for seniors until recently, and I believe this is the closest to a family situation and the furthest from an institution. My mom is doing better here than at the previous assisted living facility where she was before. This type of arrangement is best for people who are not so sick that they require constant medical care, and it works best when the person has a positive outlook! Of course a supportive family rounds out the team effort.”
