[name removed] was extremely nice and helpful. She setup our tour immediately to meet our needs of urgent placement. We were impressed by the facility and it was our top choice because of location. The facility was clean and the residents all appeared happy. The staff we met were friendly and appeared to enjoy working at Manning Place. We feel our loved one will be happy living here.

The community was always spotless. The staff was wonderful. They learned all of our family's names and always greeted us by name. Occasionally, they needed some help with getting my mother her medication exactly on time, but they never missed getting her medication. They helped us with everything caring for my mother. They were very responsive with our requests for assistance if mother needed anything. Mother wasn't so into the activities, however they did have activities available for the residents if they chose to participate. The food was not quite restaurant quality, however it was good. I would eat at the dinning room with my mother quite often and the food was always good. Definitely a good value for the price given the level of care. If I ever needed it, I would be happy to reside here. They are very loving.

I have been impressed with how safe and healthy they are keeping everyone during the Coronavirus. The food is good. They have three meals a day. They have a nice courtyard. My mom has a good size apartment. They have large common areas with space for people to move around. It is a nice size community. The activities director does a good job keeping the residents involved.

Staff is very pleasant and attentive to the residents well being. The community is small but has a good range of options for all types of people.

This would have been a good choice for my mom. The place is immaculate and the rooms clean and larger than the other places I have looked at. The staff is friendly and there are lots of things to do. Unfortunately the activities room was a big turnoff. It was the first stop on my tour and although he director of activities himself is wonderful with the residents, the clutter is a no-no.

The med techs there are not the best. Luckily my mother knew how many pills she took and what they looked like. They would leave one out sometimes or leave one out but give her two of another. I worry about the ones who don't recognize their medications. This happened about 5 times in a 3 month period. They also would not let me know a week before her meds needed to be refilled. They often would wait until she was taking the last pill to let me know. She would press the button to tell them to come back to room because she noticed it was wrong but the response time is terrible there. Supposed to be 10 minutes but it was sometimes 30 minutes or more even. They often just turn the beeper off and ignore it while doing something else. They do have a good activities guy that is good with the tenants. His name is [name removed]. Some of the workers seem to really care and some do not.

The hands on staff there is great!!!! my grandmother really enjoys her stay there. The only problem me and my family have is with the medication staff and the nurse there is HORRIBLE there was always an issue with her medication. So now she is self medicating so we don’t have to deal with the medication issues.

The staff held mail and did not give it to my sister when she was unable to access her mailbox. After her death, mail was returned to sender. I hate that she probably thought no one cared at Valentine’s and other times when we were unable to visit her in person. Shameful! Her room, especially her bathroom, always needed cleaning when we visited. I would never recommend this facility.

Very nice facility. [Removed]was very helpful and offered sound advice to help me make my decision regarding placement for my Mother. Facility is more geared for assisted living than for memory care.

My grandmother is having a wonderful experience since her move to this community. We do feel comfortable with her living in this facility. They have a good staff, and they have been attentive towards her, and her needs. Whenever we visit the community is always clean, and well maintained. The meals are good from what I have heard. The only issue we are having is since she moved in 30 days ago, the cost of her living as gone up. This is a community I would possibly recommend, but hopefully they can correct the financial issue.

We did not like the this community at all. The smell was bad of urine and disinfectant. The staff was cordial enough to us, but that did not make up for the cleanliness. The rooms also looked like a small closet in a hotel room. It just was not a good fit.

We are real pleased with the community and she is doing really good here. On our tour we met with all the staff including the nurses. It is a smaller community and the staff are real personable and good. I have not had any issues and we are glad to have found them.

My mom is happy here. The staff is caring and very helpful. The food is good and appealing. The activities are very good to stay active. We would recommend this for good care for loved ones.

Very clean,friendly, attentive to specific needs and work with family.

Beautiful facility

I have recently moved out of town and called Manning to inquire about my mom. I was informed by one of their staff that I could no longer call to inquire about my mom. What kind of prison is this when they don't tell you about your mom? Seems the staff need to be investigated.

What is happening to all of the staff?!? The environment is unstable and they just raised the rates. We have hung in there as long as we can. Currently looking to move after the first of the year.

Things are going very well here at Manning Place. The staff is great and the facility is always clean from what I can see. The activities for the residents seem be appropriate and fun. We do not have any complaints so far.

We originally found the facility through A Place for Mom and were happy with the price. Then the level of care went up and my mom is getting less attention than before. The nurse and director quit. Unfortunately we are now starting our search over. She deserves to be taken care of by staff that want to be there. We are touring two places today and hope to find the right one this time.

To much turnover in staff and management. I wouldn't be comfortable moving my father in.
