DON'T LET THE WINDOW DRESSING FOOL YOU. WHEN YOU SEE HARBOR PLACE FOR THE FIRST TIME, IT LOOKS LIKE A FIRST CLASS HOTEL. IT'S CLEAN, SMELLS GREAT, STAFF IS FRIENDLY. BUT, THE POINT OF AN ASSISTED LIVING, IS TO HAVE YOUR LOVED ONE TAKEN CARE OF THE WAY YOU WOULD TAKE CARE OF THEM.

MY MOTHER HAD ADVANCED ALZHEIMERS. SHE NEEDED HELP WITH BATHING, DRESSING, MEDICATIONS ETC. HARBOR PLACE OFFERS 3 STAGES OF CARE. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IN CARE IS THE PRICE. IT'S ALL THE SAME CARE.

ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS HARBOR PLACE STAFF DID TO MY MOTHER WAS PUT HER IN A DEPENDS. THEN THEIR STAFF DOCTOR PUT HER ON AN ANTI-DEPRESSANT (CELEXA ). THAT SOLVED THE STAFFS PROBLEM OF TAKING CARE OF HER. SHE WAS A ZOMBIE FROM THE DRUG. VERY SLEEPY & UNRESPONSIVE. THERE IS ALSO MOUNTING INFORMATION FROM AARP, THAT CELEXA, GIVEN TO ALZHEIMERS PATIENTS WILL SPEED THE ADVANCEMENT OF THE DISEASE. ( WELL IT DOES!)

WITHIN ONE MONTH, MY MOTHER WAS DEAD. THEY ALSO HAVE NO NURSING STAFF. IF YOU NEED HELP, THEY CALL AN AMBULANCE & YOU ARE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. YOU LAY WHERE YOU DROP TILL THE AMBULANCE GETS THERE.

THERE ARE ONLY 2 AIDES ASSIGNED TO EACH FLOOR TO TAKE CARE OF APPROX. 50 PEOPLE.

ALL YOUR LOVED ONE IS TO HARBOR PLACE IS A $$$$ SIGN. YOU ARE BETTER OFF HIRING AN IN HOME NURSE. I BELIEVE MY MOTHER WOULD HAVE LIVED MUCH LONGER IF I DIDN'T PUT HER INTO HARBOR PLACE IN AN EFFORT TO GIVE HER BETTER CARE. DON'T WASTE YOUR $ MONEY $.
