Absolutely LOVE Aviva Woodlands for my mom. My mom LOVES living there too. The staff is amazing from housekeeping , ( mom's place is ALWAYS perfect.) Laundry( always put away for her) to maintenance to the dining room employees, and the great nurses and aides that assist mom. I always leave feeling like she is in great hands!

Yesterday was the first time my MIL attended the weekly crafts. She had so much fun visiting with her friends. When she discovered this was a weekly occurrence, she was tickled pink. I showed my FIL a picture from the event. He noticed her true smile immediately, then he paused. "Her eyes. They are filled with light and life. I haven't seen that for years. " Thanks for all that you do to put the light back in her eyes.

0/5. Poor communication among staff to family. My family member was there, suffering from dementia. MAJOR lack of proper medical care and knowledge. She was told she could not leave her room (that's confinement), then they "forgot" to feed her 3 meals one day. Staff "apologized" to us. When she was "confined" to her room, they failed to inform family they are to go downstairs and order her meals and bring them back up to her. My MIL was yelled at by staff when she did so because she left my grandma "unattended" in her room. Failed to notify family of her "behaviors" when she was sundowning. All the sudden last week, they sent her to the ED for a psych eval. (Mind you she is 90 years old, we know she has dementia). ICING ON THE CAKE: they gave us a 30 day notice! KICKED OUT because of dementia and behaviors that go along with it? AMAZING. (note they have a memory unit). I've been in nursing 10+ years, never seen such a poorly run facility. Would NEVER recommend this place. (And yes, multiple complaints have been filed with the state)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
