Vantage Senior Care

I would give the staff a 5. Great girls, helpful, friendly loved them. Cleanliness I would give a 3 though it could have been better. However, I'm fussy. My dad couldn't do activities so I have no rate on that. Overall, I would recommend Ellens Home. The comment I want to give is I hope the CNA' S are paid well, meaning enough to raise a family. Also, they should get benefits if they don't. These girls are what matters to us as family members for our loved ones.

Maywood was promising when we toured this community. Unfortunately they did not offer the assisted living services our family and loved one needed at the time.

Ellen's Home South tried hard to work with us and make the process easier. In general, I would give them a high mark. As far as the type of care, I think it was okay. My mom only ended up being there for five days before she passed. With the level of caregivers some of them seemed good, if there was one available. One day there were only two people for the whole building. I understand the shortage of worker bees and finding people who are willing to work, I just think in general they could have used more help and training. Other than that, I'd give them high marks. My mom ended up needing way more care than we thought, so that put a little clink in it. All of that aside, they did a nice job and were easy to work with. It's a very nice facility as well.

Ellen's Home South was able to take my 94 y/o mom on an emergency basis due to water issues in our home. We ultimately decided to have her stay here permanently. Everyone was so friendly, professional, and caring to all of us. [name removed] and her staff were amazing in providing for all her needs and encouraging my mom to participate in the different activities. We didn't think mom would participate as much as she did, but she surprised us. She got the socialization she needed and she made new friends too! Mom only was able to be here for a little over a month before she passed away peacefully. We would highly recommend Ellen's Home South to anyone looking for a great place for a parent to move to. Laundry is done promptly, meals were nutritional, and everything was very clean. There was a very homey atmosphere too. We want to say a huge "thank you" to the entire staff and wish we could have had a longer relationship with them.

I had to find a place that gave end-to-life care for my 90 year old aunt who had many cognitive disabilities. She needed a small place that could provide everything as she couldn’t be moved again. Ellen’s Home was perfect!!! It truly has a homey feeling, nice sized rooms, and a comfortable setting. However, it was the care she received and the communication I received that really stood out!! Every care giver formed a special bond with my aunt and they all treated her caringly. In the end, hospice was brought in and Ellen’s Home took care of everything. I am grateful to Rllens Home for making the last 3 years of my aunts life comfortable, happy, and safe!!!

This is a small and very homey feeling community. Everyone is really nice and well taken care of. They do have a lot of activities that I see happening often my loved one just does not participate.

My father-in-law stayed at Ellen's Home until his passing. It was a wonderful experience for the whole family. He was taken very well care of. He loved the homemade food and activities with all the residents. He enjoyed being able to go in and out of the secured patio at any time he wanted. He was able to transition to Family Care, Title 19, when his funds ran out. He did not have to move out or even to another room. We are grateful to find such a wonderful place for him to live out the rest of his life in comfort, safety and show such love and kindness. I would highly recommend this home.

I researched all of the nursing homes and assisted living in my area when it was time to find a home for my mother. I was most impressed with Ellen's home and my mom has been there since last November. [Name removed] and all her workers are amazing! My mom is not easy to handle and they do it with patience and kindness on a daily basis. I am so grateful and highly recommend them!!

I was looking for a place for my uncle. I was referred to Asbury from his doctor. [Name removed] called me right away after I left a message there and met with me that evening. My wife and I took a tour of the place and decided on it right away. [Name removed] and the team there were very helpful and made this whole process very easy.

My dad and I choose Ellen's Home of Port Washington to care for my mother when her needs exceeded our ability to care for her at home. We were concerned that making a wrong choice at this time would be detrimental to all of us particularly my mother who had end stage Parkinsons. We were made aware of Ellen's Home by word of mouth. Turns out we did in fact make the right choice as the care my mother received in her short time (5 weeks+/-) at Ellen's was all we could hope for. The facility is as home like as such a facility can be and the staff is caring and compassionate. We are grateful for their efforts to make my mothers last weeks as comfortable as possible.

Very nice facility, very impressed. Really liked everything being on 1 floor. Mom's concern was that it was too far from friends & activities, that ultimately was the deciding factor.

This was very nice community I toured. The facility looked very nice and well maintained. The staff was very pleasant during the tour. They do offer nice activities for the residents. They do have a waiting list, but other then that I would recommend it.

This was a wonderful place and the director was super. The only reason we didnt choose here was because our need was now and there was a waiting list

I really like it. It's been really nice. The pricing was much better, than where we were. They had one of those sit in tub/spas, and she really likes that. She has farm field out her back window, that is perfect for her. I'm very pleased with it.

Ellen’s home is so warm caring and loving to their patients that I don’t even to worry about anything. My loved one just stayed in her bed, but now she’s up and active all the time. The food is awesome - it’s like restaurant quality food.

I like it a lot! I really like Wendy and I think they've been communicating well.

They were absolutely fantastic with my mom. Everyone is just so sincere and seemed to take a real special interest in her. The value is really hard to figure out because they made room for my mom. I was so desperate and I needed to find a place. They brought in a bed for my mom and she and another woman shared a room. The idea was to transfer her to the Ellen's Home in Germantown but my mom suffered a stroke and we just couldn't move her.

They were fantastic! I wanted my mother there so bad! It was maybe 10 minutes tops from my house. What really impressed me was the director, Elaine. She was just phenomenal. She took the time to talk to me and she even went to the hospital to do an evaluation of my mom. She worked really hard to get us in there. I thought she was really great. She seemed to really care.

It's a lot of money but it's worth it to spend. She's being taken care of 24/7 and I think that she's very well placed. They have more staff and there's more structured activity. I would recommend it to anybody, they kind of view the home as the residents home, not as a place that they work at so they try to find out thigns about the residents like what they were interested in before they were stricken by Alzheimer's or dementia. My mother liked to sew so they went and got something like a child's sewing kit to keep her mind going and they cook and they do everything they are able to do at their stage of the disease. The staff all has a sense of humor, they are very lighthearted, they know how to deal with people with advancing disease and they know that residents aren't really in control of what they do or say so they're very well equipped.

The nurse was great! Very clean, neat up-to-date. Safe. Loved it
