4 Star User Review
I submitted the 3 star review on staffing in the Memory Unit of Scenic. I want to make clear that the 3 stars are only for staffing. This is the only area of care I find fault with. The CNA's in the Memory Unit are top notch people with compassion and are very skilled at their jobs. I can't dispute the opinions of the other reviewers. Their comments reflect their sincere opinions. But here is mine. Scenic is an excellent nursing facility. The Memory Unit is top notch. Those of you dealing with dementia and Alzheimer's may already know how difficult it is to find a place for your loved one. We were asked to leave our first nursing home because Mom was too difficult for them. The scenic memory unit is great. They don't shy away from difficult behaviors and are not repulsed by them. Yes there is the occasional obviously wet or smelly resident. Keep in mind that some of them are very combative when changing is needed. The staff may have to try several times before the resident will comply. So smells and droopy drawers happen sometimes. If you understand the disease then you understand the challenges. The memory unit is top notch and could only get better with added CNA's. When that additional CNA is added to each shift, I'll come back and give them the 5 star treatment.
