Inspirations Memory Care

They were really helpful and really good, they were pretty patient with my dad considering what they had to deal with. The only downfall I had with them was medications. There wasn't a lot of communication about what was given, when it was given or why. Afterwards I had gotten a list of medications that they were giving him and there were a couple on the list that I wasn't consulted on and after he was gone I was getting bills that they said they had given him. I called and they sorted it out once we showed them what we had and the dates we had they resolved it and were okay with that. It was a little touch and go as far as getting in touch with a particular person but once we caught up they resolved our issues and seemed fine.

A bed became available at Heart Homes in Lutherville. We are working with director regarding move in date.

Small - 16 residents. Very friendly.

HeartHomes is very nice and a possibility.

Loved the place. It reminded me alot of MorningSide House of Friendship. I fear the place would raise the price every year if not more often.

Nice. There wasn't much activity at the time. The rooms are nice. The outside is fairly large.

This review is for Woodlands Assisted Living on Windlass Drive, located in the Middle River area of suburban Baltimore. The people there were wonderful to my father-in-law who needed extra care. They really kept an eye on him. Because of being a fall risk and having other problems, he spent a lot of time in the beautiful and sunny porch-like room with other patients, where the aides were quite attentive and so pleasant. They helped Pop to eat and made him as comfortable as possible. We visited during the week and on weekends, unannounced, and always found him clean and well cared for. I would recommend this place.

It's a ok place.

This was okay. The associate was not available when we first arrived, but the room was okay. This was a little out of the way of our preferred area.

Not a fair comparison as I gave very short notice for my tour. However not the best fit for my mother. Too far from family, with small rooms and limited services for us.

Huge issue with med management.

Actually, director was not there to greet us however one of the assistants was very kind to show us around and it wasn't until we had gone to the Assistant Living building the the RN phoned and asked us to return to the dementhia building where she gave us an overview of HeartHomes. I was a little surprised as the dining facilities for the residents in the dementhia bldg. was less than bare necessities, and the dining area for the assisted living had table cloths and look a little warmer. I just couldn't see her there. In the dementhia living space there was a little odor too. She was very informative about the home and stessed that this wasn't a Brightview but that they were loyal to their residents such as when they needed to go on Medicaid and if they got so sick they could stay there and hospice would come to them. Which I thought was so wonderful. Kudos to them!!

Like location

Overall not a bad experience per se', but there were quite a few things that were not told to us when placing our loved one here... We had to ask about things along the way that should have been told to us prior to placing her there... Also there were things we were told would happen within the first 30 days of her being there, that has still not been completed... Walls have not been painted, carpets have not been replaced...

Actually my Dad has stayed @The Woodlands 4 times now since last October 2013. The last 2 times we as his children were disturbed by the condition that we found him in when we visited to spend time. My Dad lives with my younger brother and his wife and we chose The Woodlands as respite care during vacations and such. We will probably go back to our original list from A Place for Mom and find a new place for him to go for respite.

We just didn't like the feel of it. From the staff that we talked to and the staff that was milling around outside we just weren't comfortable with the situation. The staff outside, I guess they were on a smoke break, and you can hear what they're complaining about and talking about and it was just like no, mom's not going to be living here.

My loved one was very unhappy there and constantly begged me to take her home. I didn't feel she was safe, so I moved her. I would never recommend this facility to anyone. The staff were nice but the care was bad. I moved mom to a new facility and she is doing great. She is clean. Her room is clean, her items never come up missing and she is very happy.

I had a tour scheduled at this facility. I wouldn't recommend it and I'll tell you why. When I arrived, I walked through the main entrance and lobby where residents were and turned the corner and went back to the reception. The receptionist informed me that my tour guide had to run to the store but that I could wait if I liked. I told her that I would wait and I went back up front and waited with the residents and conversed with them for over an hour. About an hour and fifteen minutes past my scheduled tour time, I went back to the office to see if my tour guide had come back and was ready for the tour. To my surprise, all of the lights were off and everyone had left for the day. I was informed of that by some of the other staff. No one had even come to me before leaving to reschedule, they just left. I would have never considered putting my loved one in a place like that. In my mind, it spoke volumes of the type of care she would have received here. The facility looked clean, but I was very wary about it considering my experience of their lack of professionalism.

this was an awful experience for my mom. the food was terrible and there were no choices for healthy eating. no activities at all. it was clean but smelled all the time. the floor nurses were mean and sat around all the time. the office staff didn't return calls and didn't seem to care about the residents at all. we moved her to [community removed] and she is much happier now

Medical staff did not know how to hook up oxygen tanks and my spouse ended up in the hospital two times. Complaints to the management and nursing staff on numerous occasions went unresolved. Upon release from the hospital the second time Woodlands nurse violated the contract by refusing to let her return to the facility on a Friday. The contract required a thirty day notice and another evaluation. I had planned to move her to another facility but needed time to find a new facility. Medical staff worthless. Management not responsive and supports the worthless medical staff. Read any contract carefully. Understand all the fees before you sign and read reviews before making a decision.
