has room for improvement

It is hard because there’s very many good things about poets Walk. We just loved, but there was a change in management that had a negative effect on the staff as far as a lot of the very good people left, and they were shorthanded, but prior to that and not associated with that, it is a very nice location. As far as the appearance is clean the staff well the staff was very friendly even afterwards there was some good ones left the room is very good size. The negative part for us was that our relative was prone to falling, and we often could not get someone into the room when that happened as we had cameras and could see that it happened and would call and that was difficult getting someone at night specifically that continued before, and it was after the administration change Our relative was no longer able to stay there due to their inability to care for her at that point.

Compassionate Care and Peace of Mind

The facility was very big and spread out. So everyone was lumped together. My husband was upset with his neighbor yelling out loud Help! day and night. Also the place was not very clean. He had ants in his room for awhile, the laundry was not done until I told someone and it smelled, and the room and bathroom were not cleaned often enough. There was a danger in that my husband would take showers by himself and end up in a pool of water all over the floor with no towel or clothes to put on. He did fall and hit his head once and had to go to the ER. I ended up moving him to Freedom House at Blue Skies. I would recommend Freedom House to anyone. It's top notch. I feel very comfortable having him there. Laundry is done every day. Showers are given 3 times a week. The shower room is locked so the caregiver must be with the patient for showers. I will say that most of the staff at Poets Walk were extremely nice and very caring. I feel like something may have been going on there because the staff began to turn over so much. Even the director changed. We were on the third director in 7 months. The Primary Doctor at Poets Walk was very distant and I only saw her upon arrival and never again. The Freedom House PCP is from UTHSC and he and his Nurse Practitioner come regularly. I had to have hospice while he was at Poets Walk only so he would get more attention.

We left after issues were never resolved

We had enough and moved to a lovely new facility. Between the missed medications doses, violent behavior of residents, screaming at night of residents, and issues with cleanliness and hygine, I had concerns about my mothers safety to the extent I contacted HHs and the ombudsman. In my opinion, until the management team can envision the facility free of these issues, nothing will improve. Im hopeful the new company will review the old grevience complaints and make the appropriate staffing and policy changes necessary to correct these issues.

overall it's a very nice location

Well, the staff was very friendly. They're smiling and you know and and approachable, but we really like the layout of the facility in that the rooms are around and not directly in the common area so we just liked that a lot. It's very different from other memory care facilities, and so that common area was specifically for gatherings, and that sort of thing as opposed to the room is being right off of it

They could do better

Seems like 3 director changes in 7 months has created chaos. That coupled with cuts to nursing hours have made us decide to leave. Lots of staff turnover and no remediation for issues that yeild compliance. Is sad because the place has potential.

Beautiful grand hall entry way, where most of the residents spend their time. The bistro is a nice touch. Hallways and residence rooms are quite large and spacious. Each room has a shower. [name removed] was very thorough in his tour and his explanation of the day to day. The menu was especially appealing and had everyday favorites like French Toast and hamburgers. Caregiver to resident ration could be more favorable, but that is the same with any facility. You wish they had one more helper. Wish they had 24 hour code entry for family. All in all it was an extremely nice place hidden away in a very busy and sought after area of town.

I had gotten a list of 5 or so places. Poet’s Walk is the first one I visited and the one I signed up with. It's a beautiful place. The staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. They call and text anytime there is an issue. [name removed] at Poet's Walk worked with me on payment. There are a large number of veterans living at PW, which my Dad love to talk about his stent in the Army. [name removed] - makes yummy meals while following nutritional guidelines. It's not just mush. My Dad eats well and enjoys the food.

Had a terrific discussion with the sales manager and then toured the facility. In the course of seeing several patient rooms I casually asked if the furnishings we were seeing were standard for a room. The guide surprisingly informed us that furniture was the patient's responsibility, as were all linens. Had I not asked this question that important information would not have been disclosed. Later I asked about other excluded items and was told a complete list would be provided when the contract was signed. We were expected to make a decision without key non-included components being disclosed. There was a complete lack of transparency and disclosure. Additionally we felt the large, central, chaotic community room was not a good fit for our prospective patient.

Hard-working and caring caretakers

Though my mother’s rapidly declining health prevented her from taking full advantage of all the facility had to offer, I was impressed from the very beginning at what a nice place it was, which she even commented on when she first arrived. From front desk, to dining to the care team, the staff is very caring, compassionate and dedicated in the care of residents, and as a family member dealing with a very difficult time, I experienced that compassion as well. Morningstar clearly strives to accommodate the varied needs and care levels. Communication could have been better at times but, overall, the staff did what they could to take care of my mother, despite the challenges she presented, and I feel this facility was a good choice.

This was a difficult time in our lives.

Good because memory only facility. Others don't function as well because they have assisted living also. I would. Manager not usually around and didn't seem active. Absolute opposite from [community removed] where manager was very active and involved.

I was not impressed at all. The building was filthy, residents were unkept, courtyards are not appealing, and the dining rooms are nasty! I spoke with another family member while there and they said the food needs more nutritional value which is so important for those with dementia. They sit the residents in front of empty tables or the TV. This was my second time visiting this year and everyone I met isn’t there anymore. I really liked the sales girl I spoke to and when I called her she said she parted ways with the building after 5 years there. I cannot see my mom living there and being cared for.
