Community Reviews
The Staff was Like Family
reviewed on: 01/08/2014 by DaughterMy mom was there a little over four months. The staff treated her like family. When the staff greeted her, they would say "Shirley, welcome home!" The majority of the staff did that, and you could tell she knew she was supposed to bet there. I loved that about them. I wrote them letters about that. I know there is a large turnover in most of these types of places, but I didn't see turnover there. I thought that was really good. My concern was that their staff was really minimal, and you could always use more help. Those ladies worked their tails off. They worked so hard and it really impressed me. Cleanliness was sometimes an issue, but whenever you have people with dementia trying to take care of themselves, it's going to be a little tough. I think that they were as clean as it was possible to be, and I was totally happy with them. Everyone was so friendly and kind, and I spent a lot of time there. I was there at breakfast, lunch, and dinner and they were always friendly. I really liked that they didn't have a long hallway, but a big rec room/dining room with multiple wings shooting off of it. The set up made it feel like more of a home.
Nice place, a bit understaffed
reviewed on: 09/20/2016 by AnonymousI think Savannah Court is a nice place, overall. The facility itself is clean and well kept, and the staff is friendly and professional. However, I do think they are understaffed in general. The people they do have are over-utilized and stressed, it would really help if they added a few more people.

They have outings to different lunch places regularly...
reviewed on: 01/02/2014 by Anonymous familyWe selected Savannah Court in Oviedo FL since it was 15 minutes from our home, had many activities and was an appealing atmosphere. My Mom is adjusting but she wants to return to her home in New York state but we do not think this will be possible since she fell and now has therapy regularly and they have an in house doctor and podiatrist at the facility. They have outings to different lunch places regularly and at Christmas a bus tour was provided to see the Christmas decorations at the University of Central Florida, as well as many musical events and children singing and bringing goodies for the residents. Our main idea about having her in Florida is the easy flying conditions from Colorado for my brother and there are more relatives here in Florida than New York . Hopefully she will adjust better the longer she stays here.
Not so much...
reviewed on: 04/16/2015 by knitonepearltwoWe are brand new to this facility. The best thing it has going for it, is the proximity to my home and area shopping. The first weekend the a/c went out, which, okay it happens. However when my parent inquired about why it was so hot, we were told that the person who takes care of it would be in the next day, since it was a Sunday, and there is very little staff there on weekends. I had to ask for the person in charge, who came to look, but said she couldn't call the a/c company, per her boss. I had to bring up the law and mention that they were breaking it, before the staff got back on the phone with the administrator, who finally called and got it fixed. It was 80 degrees in that room for almost 24 hrs, but the biggest issue was if I wasn't there and didn't get "ugly" how long would it have been? At the same time the purified drinking water dispenser went out, which made a lovely recipe for dehydration. The food is somewhat salty, but quite palatable, plentiful portions, plenty of snacks, including fresh fruit, available. They will bring you a tray if you are not well enough to go to the dining room. When ordering a urine sample there was some confusion and my parent was asked 3 times on different days, including 10 pm at night, to provide a sample, the first sample wasn't sent with the paperwork evidently, so instead of calling the lab, they kept asking for samples. When the Dr ordered the medication for the infection, I requested an anti fungal to be taken with it, which the Dr wrote for her take at the end of the dose of antibiotics, which by then, the fungus would have already grown and caused much discomfort, however they wouldn't change it. We were billed for a prescription we never ordered, and we never signed up for our meds to be provided by their pharmacy. I still have to try to straighten that out. The latest issue was my parent trying to get a simple roll of toilet paper!!! Honestly? A basic item of housekeeping. The administrator came with one roll, & installed it incorrectly so that all we could dispense was one sheet at a time, I had to find someone to just provide a loose roll. There was supposed to be a newspaper to read per the marketing person. The house only orders one paper for 26 residents, and the other families that pay for a paper are expected to share. When we asked for one, no one would share, so our expenses just went up again for a daily paper to be delivered. The day I went into the laundry room to check on the sheets being done, I found a fire hazard in the dryer vent above the dryer which was caked with over an inch of lint on a 10"x10" screen. The room could have been a bit cleaner when we took residence, I requested the valance be dusted, since while hanging curtains I discovered caked on dust. The carpet had spots on it, the doors were scraped up, there was a black area around the sink caulking, the screen was bent and off the window. There are very cumbersome and institutional style toilet paper dispensers which make it difficult to put any additional items around the toilet, which as you know, are much needed for the elderly with incontinence. They did however respond to all requests to fix and clean what was needed, however it takes time. The bathroom door still won't close properly, and the carpet hasn't been cleaned yet. There was man that expired in his bed and the door was left open, my parent kept asking someone to check on him as she went passed and saw that he didn't look so well. If they knew he had passed why leave the door open, and if they didn't know, then shame on whoever opened the door and did nothing. The biggest problem I have is that on the weekends there are so few people there, you can't even get someone on the phone. Twice I called and once my sister called when our parent would not answer her phone. Twice the facility phone rang and rang with no answer, & then a resident that did not have her mental faculties answered and was not able to help at all. I worry what will happen when I am out of town. They have shopping trips and days out which are great. The television room has an ancient projection TV which is hard to see from all angles, and all the outside flower pots are filled with fake silk flowers that are just hideous looking . Considering the infusion of cash that comes with every new resident, one would think they could manage something a bit better. There is lovely patio furniture out front at least, and a nice outside courtyard with a jasmine vine arch, and shade. The shady side is where all the smokers go, so that makes it difficult for non smokers to enjoy. Many of these things are minor, and just annoying, but they keep piling up, one thing after another, and it has only been a few weeks. My mother is very particular, and sometimes difficult, so I try not to say too much to the staff. She is already making a reputation for herself which I fear is not favorable, however since we invested in the place to move in, we will not be leaving anytime soon. There is a buy in to live there, which is non-refundable, so I would make sure it's where you want to put your parent before buying in. I wish I had.
