Hawks Ridge Assisted Living

I could not leave a review without giving this facility at least 1 star. I wanted to give it no stars. This facility should be described as an independent living facility with minimal assistance. If your loved one is independent and able to do most things for themselves, they will do fine here. Otherwise, this facility has caregivers who are well-meaning but poorly trained. This, in my view, is due to how often management changes. In the almost 2+ years my mother lived there, the management changed at least 4 times. I had a meeting with the executive director (who I believe is still the executive director) after my mother had repeated hospitalizations because she was not receiving her medications consistently or in a timely manner. One of the reasons the executive director gave to me was, "The caregivers only receive 'minimal' training here." If an assisted living facility offers medication assistance as part of their services, then it seems to me that should be included in the "minimal training." This followed on the heels of a caregiver not knowing how to use the wheelchair my mother was in and asking me how to use it as well as feces being left on the floor of my mother's shower stall as well as on her bathroom floor. I cannot tell you how many instances I had of trying to communicate with the management and the staff members about all of this, and it was all to no avail. I recently moved my mother to another facility and saw a caregiver there who had once worked at Hawks Ridge. He was so happy to see my mother and relieved that she no longer lived at Hawks Ridge. His words: "I would never work there again. The caregivers are untrained, and the care that is given is negligent."

Kaytlynn and her team are amazing. They take great care of my mother. Hawks Ridge smells good and is always clean. Thank you guys so much

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff at Hawks Ridge. From the moment I walked through the doors, I was greeted with kindness, professionalism, and genuine warmth. Every team member from the nurses and caregivers to the front desk and dining staff goes above and beyond to ensure residents get the best care possible.

This facility is amazing, such a cozy community for their residents who are very happy with how welcoming their home is. The residents treat each other with kindly, with respect and have mended together like a family. The resident also enjoy the activities that are provided to them, trivia nights and the book club bring the residents closer, and they have a hoot with it. I would recommend this to every person if I had the chance to. Thank you to the team that works hard for them. Your hard work does not go unnoticed.

My mother lived very happily at Hawks Ridge for the last 4 years of her life. She enjoyed the homey, nurturing atmosphere and she found many good friends there. I really enjoyed visiting her at Hawks Ridge, it's a wonderful facility and I was very impressed with how well the staff knew each resident and how much they cared about their welfare.
