Blaire House is lovely, it is a smaller building which gives off that more at home feeling, it is very welcoming. The care services are good, we have been very satisfied. Our loved one doesn't always participate in the activities but they do try their best to get him engaged which we appreciate their efforts. They have done very well with COVID and keeping them safe. They have gone above and beyond with modifying visits and stepping up their cleaning. Regardless of everything that is going on, we were amazed and so pleased.

Our loved one first lived on the assisted living side and we thought they could handle her projection she had with her memory, she is now living on the nursing side of the facility. This community is great, it is kept pretty clean. Right now they have stopped activities due to COVID, but beforehand they had church ceremonies, yoga and exercise classes. On Friday's they had get together's before dinner. The rooms are pretty good in size, she is currently living in a one bedroom. We would have to give that a four out of five. The food is not bad, we would have to give that a four in a half out of five.

Everything is always in good shape and things are usually pretty clean. The only thing here is that the entrances and some of the community spaces at are locked so there is no easy access to restrooms, which can make life difficult if you are with someone with dementia, for example. One or two of the staff seem to be really into taking care of all the residents, we love dealing with them. The other staff seem to be a little non-existent and hard to interact with. My wife enjoys it here and the fact that they have nurses on staff is great. They did take good care of her throughout the day. With regard to the Covid-19 pandemic, a major concern of mine is that the nursing center had multiple cases of the virus. There has been a lack of communication with us regarding what they are doing to mitigate the spread. We also cannot get information regarding the state audit regarding virus preparedness and they will not tell us about any corrective action taking place.
