    Unsafe, neglected, unprofessional care facility

    I lived/visited and had mixed feelings: some aides were compassionate and the place can feel home-like with liked meals, but overall I would not recommend it. Staff were unreliable and unprofessional (missed visits, only ~3 hours/day, refusal/failure to follow through), care errors and a threatening CNA led to safety concerns and even hospitalization/state intervention. The facility is run-down and dirty (moldy bathrooms, old furniture, small shared baths), not appropriate for mobility issues, and lacks on-site RN/management. Kind staff couldn't overcome the negligence, unsafe practices, and overpriced, mismanaged operation.

    Summary review

    These reviews present a highly polarized and inconsistent picture of Blessed Homes. A substantial subset of reviewers describe the facility as a caring, small-group homelike setting with friendly, compassionate staff, affordable pricing, and an overall positive emotional impact on residents and families. Those reviewers praised staff accessibility, professional aides, the presentation of residents' clothing, and instances where care was delivered as promised or exceeded expectations. Some visitors also reported that the facility appeared very clean during their tour and that residents seemed happy, and a few families expressed willingness to volunteer to help with painting or furniture replacement.

    Conversely, a serious and troubling portion of the reviews describes significant and recurring problems. Reported issues include missed services — in one account services were absent for 12 days — and extremely limited care hours (examples of only about three hours per day). Multiple reviewers reported poor-quality work, negligence, and instances of unprofessional or abusive behavior, including a report that a CNA threatened a client and other reports of unprofessional treatment that allegedly led to hospitalization. There are also reports of state intervention, which suggests regulatory concerns that merit verification.

    Staffing and clinical oversight are recurring problem themes. Several reviews note the absence of an on-site RN, claims of only two techs covering the facility, unqualified staff, and overall mismanagement. These staffing issues are tied in the reviews to medication errors (wrong medications given), refusal to follow through on promised visits, and an overall inconsistent standard of care. Positive comments about compassionate staff coexist with accounts of unsafe or unreliable staff behavior, indicating a significant variability in staff performance and supervision.

    Facility condition and safety are major areas of concern for some reviewers. Descriptions include rundown, filthy conditions, odors, dirty and old furniture, damaged and moldy bathroom floors, small and worn beds, and small shared bathrooms that are not appropriate for residents with mobility issues. Several reviewers described the location as sketchy or frightening and mentioned unsafe residents or accommodations that felt insecure. At the same time, other reviewers reported the property as very clean and well-presented during a tour, reinforcing the pattern of inconsistent experiences.

    Dining and programming also split reviewers' opinions. Some people liked the meals and appreciated that residents’ clothing was kept presentable, while others described insufficient meals, food being burned, and a lack of activities that made the facility feel depressing. The lack of activities and structured programming was a clear negative for multiple reviewers, contrasted by requests from families for more exercise and engagement options.

    Taken together, the reviews suggest wide variability in the resident experience at Blessed Homes. Positive accounts emphasize compassionate, accessible staff, a homelike small-group environment, affordability, and moments of excellent personal care. Negative accounts raise significant red flags about safety, staffing, sanitation, medication management, management oversight, and the physical state of the property — including reports of service gaps lasting days, state-level involvement, and alleged abusive or threatening staff behavior.

    For anyone evaluating Blessed Homes, these reviews indicate the need for careful, targeted due diligence. Verify licensing and inspection records (including any state interventions), ask directly about clinical oversight (is an RN regularly on-site or on-call?), confirm typical staff-to-resident ratios and scheduled care hours, inquire about how medication administration and incident reporting are handled, and request recent photos or an independent tour focused on cleanliness and repairs (bathroom condition and mold were specifically cited). Also ask about activities programming, meal schedules, and policies for follow-through on promised visits and services. Given the polarized feedback, prospective residents and families should seek recent references and, if possible, visit multiple times at different hours to assess consistency of care and operations.
