Haven Care Memory Care review
My mother is currently a resident at Haven Care Birch House. The staff is a mix, three of the providers are terrific and one is very non caring. The Activities are the only thing that I would rate lower than a 4. The residents do sit and watch TV a lot.
About the facility Haven Care Birch House Memory Care
Haven Care operates five assisted living residences in the greater Albuquerque, New Mexico area. Birch house is a lovely brick home in an upper middle class neighborhood and is less than 3 miles from Lovelace Women's Hospital, which was rated at 87% on its latest medicare review. Three other highly rated major hospitals are within seven miles. Birch House has private rooms for 5 residents and specializes in Alzheimer's and Dementia care. It blends into its neighborhood and looks like just another home. There is always at least one staff member on duty and Haven Care provides regular in home health care with both a staff RN and regular MD visitation. Haven Care takes particular pride in the quality of security they provide. Top quality home style cooking and snacks are provided. Birch house is not a medicare or medicaid facility. Birch house is what is known as a micro-community type facility. Micro-community assisted living facilities are preferred by many people because they do not feel like an institution but more like a home. Many clients in larger nursing facilities feel as if they are in a prison and fantasize about escaping or being rescued. Patients in large nursing homes...

Response from Haven Care Birch House Memory Care
October 17, 2024
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're glad to hear that you've had positive experiences with several of our staff members, and we truly appreciate your recognition of their care and dedication. However, we’re sorry to learn that one provider hasn’t met your expectations, and we’ll be looking into this to ensure all staff maintain the high standard of care we expect.
Your feedback about the activities is also valuable. We understand how important engaging activities are for our residents, and we’ll be reviewing this area to see how we can improve. While television can be a source of relaxation, we aim to offer a variety of stimulating activities to enrich their daily lives.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and for trusting us with your mother's care. Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss any concerns further—we’re here to help.

Great Staff and Locked Price
They were full. I would have liked to get my mom in here, though. The staff was all trained to work with all of the behavioral and physical and challenges of Alzheimer's. Also, there was no price change. It was $5100, but it will never increase no matter how much care you need.

Haven Care Birch House Memory Care offers 1 Bedroom and Semi-Private. Learn more.
A Place for Mom has scored Haven Care Birch House Memory Care 7.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
