As a caregiver and POA for my grandparents, I’ve had to navigate some incredibly difficult and emotional decisions around their care. After a very negative experience in a local nursing home, finding an assisted living facility that felt safe, compassionate, and truly resident-centered was critical for our family. From the very beginning, the staff here helped make what could have been a traumatic transition feel manageable and humane.<br><br>They showed remarkable patience and empathy as my grandparents adjusted to a new environment. Like many older adults, they experienced moments of frustration, fear, and resistance during the transition, and the staff met those moments with understanding rather than impatience. They took the time to listen, explain, reassure, and adapt their approach to what my grandparents needed emotionally—not just physically.<br><br>The facility itself is clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully run. It’s clear that pride is taken in the environment, and it makes a real difference in quality of life for residents and peace of mind for families.

Hearth Brook has such a warm and welcoming feel! The residents seem genuinely happy and well cared for. They have a lot of activities and events for the residents to enjoy along with their families. Very nice place!!

What I observed was extremely disheartening and deeply concerning—not based on hearsay or memory, but on actual recorded evidence.<br><br>Approximately half of the staff showed a clear lack of compassion and professionalism. Even more disappointing was that this attitude extended to some administrators as well. My grandmother was often treated like a burden for asking for help—whether it was requesting her prescribed inhaler or reporting burning pain during urination. Instead of receiving care, she was made to feel guilty or “needy” for expressing serious health concerns.<br><br>On more than one occasion, she was threatened by staff that if she continued calling for help, she’d be left out in the dining room so they wouldn't have to return to her room. This is completely unacceptable and borders on emotional abuse.<br><br>One of the most dangerous incidents occurred when a nurse determined that my grandmother needed t
