Mixed experience
reviewed on: 03/10/2016 by AnonymousOur experience with The Hermitage has been somewhat mixed. The facility itself is clean and well kept, the staff seem friendly, and the food is decent. However, I really think they could more activities, that is my biggest issue with them.
We have been very pleased with everyone
reviewed on: 06/08/2015 by AnonymousWe have been very pleased with everyone. They have been very accommodating to my aunts needs. We are just real pleased. I would recommend The Hermitage. The facility is very clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The value is excellent. They have many activities to keep the residents busy. They offer arts & crafts, bingo, music events, golf courses, and more. Everything has been going well.
We really liked this place, it was interesting.
reviewed on: 09/03/2015 by AnonymousWe really liked this place, it was interesting. They would have been able to take her if she had dementia, but they were not equipped to care for someone with psychological issues. Not many places were.
awesome
reviewed on: 05/26/2015 by AnonymousOverall The Hermitage is awesome. From the time that we visited there when we were initially looking for a place for my dad up to now everything has been really spectacular. We left there after the first day saying "this place really feels like home". Very caring, friendly, and welcoming. The staff, caregivers, everyone has been very friendly caring and helpful all throughout. The only thing we have had any problems with is that he has a catheter that needs to be changed monthly and the first month in did not go well and he ended up at the emergency room. Other than that once incident everything has gone extremely well.
