Overall sentiment in these reviews is strongly positive: reviewers consistently describe More Than Home Residential Care as a caring, clean, and well-run small residential home where residents are loved, well tended, and active. Multiple family members emphasize that residents receive attentive, affectionate care—staff give hugs, never let residents go neglected, and are described repeatedly as 'sweet' and 'caring.' Several reviewers say they have no regrets about choosing this facility and call it a blessing to the family.
Care quality and daily routines are highlighted repeatedly. Residents are showered and dressed before breakfast, moisturizing and skin-care needs are proactively addressed (reviewers note improved skin condition and no dryness), and residents are reported to be well fed. The home provides a very personal level of attention consistent with a small-group setting: with only five current residents (maximum seven), staff appear to know residents well and deliver individualized care. Wheelchair users are present and accommodated, and reviewers describe residents as staying active, suggesting appropriate supports for a range of mobility and engagement levels.
Staffing and management receive strong praise. Reviewers note a consistent staffing model—four caregivers total, with two on duty at a time and one overnight—along with visible owner involvement. That staffing pattern is cited in a positive light because it supports continuity of care and close relationships between staff, residents, and families. The owner and staff are described as approachable, which is reinforced by family-friendly policies such as permitting birthday cake visits and easy visitor access.
Facilities and atmosphere are described as clean, home-like, and welcoming. Reviewers repeatedly use words like 'clean,' 'friendly,' and 'well cared for.' The small size contributes to a homely atmosphere; families appreciate the personal attention and emotional warmth. Dining and nourishment appear satisfactory (residents are described as 'well fed'), and celebrations and family visits are accommodated, supporting social and emotional needs.
Notable practical details and patterns from the reviews: pricing is stated explicitly (master suite: $4,800 for single, $3,500 for shared), and families are expected to supply certain items—specifically incontinence supplies and some medications—which may be an important consideration for prospective residents and families. The home's small capacity (maximum seven residents) is a double-edged feature: it enables very personalized care and close relationships but may limit availability and not suit families seeking larger facilities or different programming. One reviewer noted that the home was 'not what we were looking for,' indicating it may not fit every preference or need, though that was an isolated comment amid otherwise unanimously positive feedback.
In summary, More Than Home Residential Care is portrayed as a small, well-managed residential care home that provides attentive, affectionate, and consistent care in a clean, family-friendly environment. The most frequently cited strengths are the quality of staff, individualized attention due to low resident counts, good hygiene and skin-care practices, and active engagement of residents. Potential considerations for prospective families are the explicit costs, the expectation that families provide certain supplies and medications, the small total capacity, and the relatively small caregiver team—factors that could affect availability or suitability depending on individual needs. Overall, the reviews point to a high level of family satisfaction and strong recommendations for others seeking a small, loving long-term residential care option.
