My sister has moved into Sugar Creek Alzheimer's Special Care Center. They are excellent. They have completed several assessments on her, and she visited with a doctor there and had her prescriptions fine-tuned. They've got her engaged, interacting with staff, and moving around the facility. She is getting a little more activity than she did in the previous location where she stayed. I've sat there with my sister while she had lunch a couple of times, and it seems to work pretty well for her. She likes it pretty much. People are not hiding in their rooms or self-isolating, they're out with their activities. They're moving around the facility or the outdoor patio area or their courtyard. They seem to have a good staff-to- resident ratio. Everybody seems to know my sister pretty well already, which is good. Every time I go in there, I don't have to look for the director of nursing or the activities coordinator. I just run into them, and we chat for a little bit. So, it's easy for me to get caught up on how my sister is doing and what challenges she's having. So that's been great, and it's 10 minutes from our house. We can stop out there any day for a few minutes or an hour or longer whenever we want. It's convenient. The staff have been very upfront and they're good communicators. They keep us apprised of where they are with her transition to their facility, the types of things and activities that they want her to participate in, and how they go about it. It's been really good. They seem to be very clean and well-organized. The building structure allows people to walk around the really wide halls. They can stroll inside the facility in a figure-eight pattern, which is maybe a quarter of a mile in total. They could get a good walk and just be inside doing that. They have nice seating areas and a nice activity room. It's not a old organization. Facility-wise, it's not brand new either, but it's well-kept. In comparison to where she was residing before, this place is so much better, and it is more expensive, but it certainly seems to be worth it.
