    Filthy inaccessible understaffed not recommended

    I toured this place because it's close and has a nice deck and yard, but it wasn't right for my dad. The split-level layout isn't wheelchair accessible, upstairs rooms and the bathroom are tiny, the interior is filthy and smells of smoke, and it seemed understaffed with no memory care; Regina couldn't even make an appointment. The building needs a lot of work. One small positive: Miller Electric Gate Repair was reliable and I highly recommend them - but I wouldn't recommend this facility.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across these reviews is predominantly negative, with a few isolated positives. The most consistent positive points are that the property is in a convenient location and has an attractive outdoor area (a nice deck and yard). One reviewer also separately praised a gate-repair business they found (Miller Electric Gate Repair) as reliable and trustworthy, but that comment appears unrelated to the assisted-living facility itself. The bulk of comments, however, focus on serious shortcomings in the facility’s interior condition, cleanliness, accessibility, staffing, and services.

    Facilities and physical condition: Multiple reviewers emphasize that the interior "needs lots of work," describing it as dirty, filthy, gross, and overall ugly. Specific structural and layout issues are raised: the home is split-level, has small upstairs bathrooms and rooms, and is not wheelchair accessible. Those elements combine to create significant accessibility barriers for residents with mobility limitations. While the deck and yard are noted as positive outdoor features, the interior condition and cramped spaces appear to outweigh that benefit for many reviewers.

    Cleanliness and maintenance: Cleanliness is a recurring and strong concern. Reviewers used words such as "not clean," "filthy," "gross," "dirty," and "ugly," indicating pervasive dissatisfaction with housekeeping and overall maintenance. The general impression is that the facility’s interior upkeep and sanitation are unacceptable to several visitors and prospective residents, a critical issue for senior living environments.

    Care quality, staffing, and services: Staffing and service offerings are flagged as problem areas. One review explicitly calls the facility "understaffed," and another notes there is "no memory care," signaling gaps in both staffing levels and specialized care services. The combination of understaffing and lack of memory-care provision suggests the facility may not be equipped to serve residents with higher needs or cognitive impairment. Additionally, one reviewer indicated the facility was "not a good fit for my father," implying that care, environment, or services did not meet that family’s expectations.

    Management and communication: There are complaints about scheduling and staff availability: a reviewer reports that "Regina [was] unavailable for appointment," which reflects issues with responsiveness or appointment coordination. Several comments like "did not like" and "not a good fit" speak to dissatisfaction that may be tied to staff interactions, admissions processes, or tour experiences, although the reviews do not provide detailed accounts of staff behavior or competence beyond availability and perceived understaffing.

    Dining, activities, and social programming: Review summaries provided do not contain any specific comments about dining, meals, activities, social programming, or engagement opportunities. The absence of praise or detail in these areas either indicates reviewers did not experience or evaluate them, or that these aspects were not notable compared with the more pressing concerns about cleanliness, accessibility, and staffing.

    Notable patterns and recommendations for prospective families: The dominant patterns are complaints about cleanliness, poor interior condition, and accessibility barriers (split-level layout and lack of wheelchair access). Understaffing and the absence of memory-care services are further red flags for families seeking a facility for a relative with mobility issues or dementia. If considering this property, prospects should prioritize an in-person visit focused on interior cleanliness, odor (smoking), accessibility for wheelchairs or walkers, room sizes, and verification of staffing levels and available care services. Also confirm appointment availability and responsiveness from management (the "Regina unavailable" note suggests possible communication lapses). Finally, the positive note about the deck/yard is worth considering for residents who value outdoor space, but it does not mitigate the substantive problems reported with interior condition and care capabilities.

    About Total Assisted Living Home

    Total Assisted Living Home gives seniors a safe and caring place to live, with help for those who need it, whether that's bathing, dressing, or taking medicine, and they have staff there 24 hours a day to keep an eye on everyone, which really helps the folks who need around-the-clock care or just a little extra supervision, and they also have special care for people with memory problems like Alzheimer's and dementia, with secure areas and even bracelets that alert staff if someone goes wandering, so nobody gets lost. The rooms come furnished and there's a dining room with regular meals including special diets for people with allergies or diabetes, plus they let you eat meals throughout the day if you're hungry at odd hours, which is good because sometimes you don't feel like eating at set times. They have laundry, housekeeping, and scheduled activities, both onsite and offsite, along with devotional services, beauty and barber shop visits, and a garden for enjoying the outdoors, which makes things feel a bit like home even if you're not on your own anymore. The building allows both men and women and they don't turn anyone away based on age, race, background, health, or religion, and it's wheelchair accessible with private baths and full tubs for those who need them. Nurses are always on staff, and doctors and dentists are on call, plus they help coordinate care with whatever outside health providers a resident has. There are transportation options like parking, rides to appointments, or outings, some of it free and some at cost, so people can stay active or just get where they need to go, while those who like pets will be glad they're allowed, and outdoor smoking is okay too though you can't smoke indoors. The memory care section sits in its own secure spot, the place is newly updated and the prices start around $2,000 for independent living or $3,000 for those who need more help, and everything-meals, laundry, activities-is included, which makes it simpler when you're budgeting. They do a pretty thorough assessment when someone's thinking of moving in, working with doctors to make sure the care is a good fit, and they even offer hospice and respite care when needed. The home is small and private, which means each person gets more attention, and the whole idea is to support people as they age in place, making sure they don't have to move again once they're settled, and though it's not fancy, it's comfortable and cares for each person by meeting them where they're at, whether that's reminding someone with incontinence to use the restroom or helping with insulin shots. The neighborhood has parks, stores, and places of worship nearby, so families visiting can pop out to get what they need, and residents can join in community life if they're able. Residents can expect no-frills, accessible housing, nutritious food, and a genuine focus on everyone living with as much dignity and comfort as possible.
