Orchard Manor

The [name removed] family welcomed my mother in and treated her as family. Having spent as much time with our mother as we could, we saw compassion and respect in the caring staff. [name removed], who is an RN, provided insight and was very involved in each resident's care and needs. I would not hesitate to recommend this home.

My mother was a resident in hospice under the compassionate care of Rodica and her incredible staff. My mother required a high level of care due to a stroke which left her completely dependent on others for activities of daily living. My mother was in and out of hospitals, skilled nursing and assisted facilities for 6 months prior to moving her to Orchard Manor. The previous assisted living facility was neglectful, and I was frustrated with empty promises of the many facilities that look nice on the outside, with different stories within. After reading reviews of Orchard Manor, I made the call. Rodica was confident and knowledgeable about my mother’s needs, and stayed ahead of her care. Her medical background is vast, and she eased many of my concerns with her many years of experience. She and her husband Dmitri are both very kind people. The home is welcoming with a quiet rhythm and routine to the day. It is impeccably clean, and always has something wonderful cooking on the stove. Beautiful gardens and porches to sit and visit in the summer. Then, there is the staff, who are nothing short of amazing. They take the best of care of the residents, and are the most kind and caring of people. They have been called to do this work, and are true angels. Lisa and Nicole have the biggest hearts, and I am so incredibly grateful for Orchard Manor in the selfless and compassionate ways they care for others. I could sleep soundly at night, knowing my dear mother was receiving the best of care.

Very positive experience - owners are professional, and the group home experience has been a good fit for my mom. The facility is clean. Staff is caring, patient, and understanding of residents' limitations. The ratio is good - 6 residents to 2 staff. Mom is doing very well. She is safe and happy. Routine is very important to her, and the schedule for meals, bath, bed, etc. is regular. Staff make home cooked meals! They are good cooks, and the food is appropriately easy to eat. Not much going on here but there is a wonderful musician who comes monthly to play guitar and sing traditional tunes. It might be nice to have a little more activity. Expensive but I think Orchard Manor is a better value than other locations. Better care, better surroundings, better ownership. Also, no nickel dime add-ons. Highly recommend. Incontinence supplies - your choice to provide or have them purchased and you reimburse. Have found that it is better to have them buy exactly what is needed and reimburse.

We are very fortunate to have found Orchard Manor, Rodica, and her staff who all took excellent care of my dad. They went the extra mile for my dad, assisting him with whatever he needed. When he moved into Orchard Manor he had two wounds on his heels and a sacral wound that came from a terrible rehab facility. Rodica and her staff assisted to completely heal both of the wounds on his heels and greatly improve his sacral wound. While my dad was in the hospital, Rodica even came to visit him to check in on how he was doing. Rodica’s training as an RN and extensive medical knowledge were invaluable and helped me advocate for my dad’s health needs. She answered my calls and texts about my dad promptly and always kept me updated on how he was doing. If you are looking for an excellent place for your loved one where you can trust they will receive great care, I truly cannot recommend Orchard Manor enough.

Everyone is treated respectfully and like family here. I think the lunches could use some improvement though.
