Happy with Poet's Walk
I'm happy with Poets Walk but my husband is in hospice so he gets more personal attention. Otherwise he would not. But the staff is friendly, and knowledgeable. I like that we have frequent meetings for caregivers.

This was a difficult time in our lives.

Good because memory only facility. Others don't function as well because they have assisted living also. I would. Manager not usually around and didn't seem active. Absolute opposite from [community removed] where manager was very active and involved.

Awful Experience

I was not impressed at all. The building was filthy, residents were unkept, courtyards are not appealing, and the dining rooms are nasty! I spoke with another family member while there and they said the food needs more nutritional value which is so important for those with dementia. They sit the residents in front of empty tables or the TV. This was my second time visiting this year and everyone I met isn’t there anymore. I really liked the sales girl I spoke to and when I called her she said she parted ways with the building after 5 years there. I cannot see my mom living there and being cared for.

Dependable Home Away From Home

Newer on-site leaders are very engaged and are working to make operations even better. Caregivers are kind and always helpful. Room sizes are large and house what the residents need. They work to keep residents out of their rooms most times anyhow for safety and to keep them involved with the community. They have an activities coordinator and they work with families to best know what the residents like to do.

Wonderful Facility

The people who work at Poets Walk seem to genuinely care about the wellbeing of the patients. I knew that my Dad was in good hands. They alerted me promptly about anything I needed to know, anything my father needed, etc. Yes, based on the experience we have had so far, I would definitely recommend them to other families.

The comfortable and correct choice for your family member.

The set up of the front desk made it easy to visit when I wanted. Other facilities I visited it was hard to come and go. Poets walk was secure. Room size was a very nice size. Had room for bed, tv dresser and chair with room to move. Light in room was very good also. Bathroom was set up well and large. The little hall in room gave privacy from open door

I would not wish our experience on anyone looking for a place for their loved one.

We had a terrible experience with the administration. They were bathing my fathers in cold water. There was no hot water in his room for many days. We had a hard time with communication and many verbal promises at signing turned out to be just puffing. When dad's health went to the worst and had to be hospitalized the facility would not accept him back for hospice care. I have a lot more to say on this more than texting will allow. Maybe things have changed since Oct 2021. It all looked good when we signed up. But as I said. Once we were in promises were not for-filled.

Poets Walk is a bestseller for many chapters of life

They were attentive and encouraged him to be social but allowed him some alone time also. Nurses were great keeping us informed about meds and any concerns. It was so friendly and easy to visit dad in Poets Walk. When dad came home to be with us his last days they called to check in on him. We feel he was well taken care of.

I give Poets Walk a 5 for all the categories above. My Dad was on his deathbed and probably had a few months left. He was not eating and lost about 25 lbs over a 5-6 month period. He was so weak he couldn't walk and would slump down when sitting. He's been at PW for about 4 months. He's gained about 12-13 lbs, walks all over the place, and is very active at PW. He's on a schedule and everyone at PW knows him and treats him like family. Great place.

Bright and Clean

When I toured Poet's Walk San Antonino I was greeted with friendly staff, from reception to workers inside and outside, are very friendly and polite. Everyone talks to guests and residents. Poet's walk was bright and clean, with very happy residents. Another loved one was at Poet's Walk a while ago and he was so very well taken care of . My loved did pass away, but during his stay at Poet's he was well cared for.
