Encore at Foulk Experience

My parents have only been there since[ date removed], so I don't have much to compare to. We did not know they were bought by encore until they moved in. I would rate the facility with all 5's except for the category of food. I would give that a rating of 3. My parents have noticed a delay in receiving what they ordered, missing items, and cleanliness concerns during meals. Lack of basic items such as water glasses and coffee cups and silverware. I know of other residents in assisted living who were deeply concerned about drastic changes to nursing staff, meal availability and nutrition standards and maintenance issues. Several long term staff have exited with the arrival of the takeover due to benefit changes and workplace morale.

Review for Encore at Foulk

I'd tell a friend. to do research on the new company that has taken over and ask a lot of questions. Like staff to resident ratio for instance. And the other facilities that they are/were involved operating. I do know the new company that took over gave some families letters of termination and have 30 days to vacate and find another place for the their loved ones. They have also cut staff and apparently only have one Registered Nurse to hand out medications to the residents on all 3 floors. Without saying that did not settle right with many of the families. So I am going to be watching very closely as to what is going on.

Always a pleasant experience every time I visit my friend, [name removed]. Staff is friendly and helpful. They treat the residents with respect. [name removed] participates in some of the activities, but she stated she enjoyed herself. Her room is always clean.

No worries

The staff is great. They encourage the residents to get involved with others and to participate in activities. Unfortunately because my mother has vascular dementia, she is more argumentative and doesn't want to participate. She is also wheelchair bound. The staff still will encourage her. They also have special occasions that family members can have dinner or lunch with the residents, such as Thanksgiving, Easter, Mother and Father's Day's. Just recently they had a BBQ for Memorial Day. So they try to make things special.

Some issues with staffing and food

Because there have issues with housekeeping not cleaning my mom's apartment, nor doing her laundry on a timely basis. Also the food service has been horrible at times. My mom thinks the food is good, but the service has been spotty and downright bad at times. Staffing has been a problem.

Great Community

The reason we gave the meals a 4 is because it is a smaller facility, their menu is not that big but the quality of food is above average. There are activities everyday but some days have more than others. When it comes to the value for cost I don't have much to compare it to. My mom did not want to move and was very bitter initially. She now openly admits how friendly the staff is and how she loves Foulk Living.

Review for Foulk Living

The facility and the staff were great. Unfortunately when we moved my mother-in-law to Foulk we were told that when the time came for her to go on Medicaid she would be moved to skilled nursing. However the time came, and the social worker called us 2 months after they were notified that we filed, and told us that they had a long waiting list for skilled nursing, and therefore we needed to move her. We had to scramble to find a facility with a Medicaid bed available.

Excellent Care at Foulk Living

This being my first time rehabbing outside of a hospital setting, I was fortunate in finding a fully staffed facility that featured professional care with a very caring attitude . Everyone has been wonderful especially two aides that were assigned to me, one being [name removed] and the other one being [name removed]. They made me feel very comfortable, and treated me like I was super star. From what I gathered from other residents, their primary aides made them feel as I did. The individuals who work with my PT were extremely thorough and very caring. And the food is good too! I would certainly recommend this facility to all.

Happy Place

The staff are super friendly and always positively greet the resident and their family. I haven't encountered a person who hasn't had a smile on their face. They seem to get along with one another very well. The move in process was fair, no "welcome committee" but we figured it all out. The food and staff are excellent. I would certainly recommend this facility to others.

When it comes to the activities we gave that an overall 3 out of 5 because there is not enough that goes into the evenings. The activities stop early unless there is a happy hour. We absolutely love the the distance this community is from my house! About place the aides. They have been SUPER understanding and supportive to me and they like mom.

A very positive experience

I enjoy the Foulk Living community. The staff is warm and friendly and very professional in their dealings with residents. I have been here three years, most during the Pandemic, and the staff was diligent in keeping us safe as possible. The residents are also enjoyable. We have a lot of activities and enjoyable outside entertainment that comes frequently to add to our fun. Also, if I ever need it, there is wonderful healthcare. And, to whom it may be important, Foulk Living is in a very good location, close to everything that is important to me. I still drive; however, there is professional transportation to take residents to appointments and shopping, etc. All in all, Foulk Living is a big bang for the buck!

Faulk Manor is going through renovations. They are understaffed and communication with them is poor. Nevertheless we put mom here. She is in memory care. One day we called to let them know we were having lunch with mom that day. When we arrived we let the staff know that we called ahead and we were seated in the dining room with mom. A few minutes later we were asked to leave because apparently we were seated in the wrong place and they didn't have enough food for us. We found that experience to be incredibly rude. On another day we took mom down to a musical activity on the 1st floor. The activity was cancelled because of lack of attendance.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Delaware’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Delaware’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
