Until my retirement in 2015, I was a homecare/Hospice social worker for over 20 years. Over the span of my career, I had been in an out of numerous care homes, some much better than others. In my view, Isabel's Place was the absolute best. I had visited patients there for several years, and always recommended this place to adult children seeking care for their loved ones. I always impressed with the quality of care, cleanliness, and genuine concern that Isabel and her staff showed their residents.
Suddenly, in February of 2014, my own Mom, Elsie, needed placement. I was so fortunate to secure the one opening they had at the time. Mom has been with them over four years now. They take wonderful care of her and treat her like a member of their family. They are not just "babysitters" who take care of physical needs, but active, loving caregivers who engage the residents in activities, giving them lots of hugs, love and attention.
They keep detailed records of medicine administration, eating and bowels habits, as well as attention to their residents' emotional state. They are very open to home care and hospice agencies and keep a good line of communication with doctors, nurses, and resident's family members. I couldn't be happier with the care my Mom receives from these wonderful people!
