Bad management
Good management start with good staffing. Always overworked overwhelmed. Sometimes you feel like you cannot meet the residence need because you are overworked. They don’t care about anything else, except accumulating their money. The place is beautiful but if you decided to leave your loved one, I would suggest you come take a look and check up on them quite often. We have a high rate of turnover for caregivers and management. It’s like a zoo beautiful place but on organized and unprofessional. In the end, the residence and the staff suffer due to unprofessionalism of leaders.

Help is on its way
I only wish we could of moved in sooner. What we really like about Jefferson House is that It was light, airy, not dark and sad. Based on the experience we have had so far with Jefferson House we would absolutely recommend this community to other families and in fact we have already!

Jefferson House was a lovely facility. The gal who showed us around was great, but we felt the facility was too large for what she needed and it was pricey.

Jefferson House is a great facility
It is a beautiful place and it has a very homey atmosphere. They were very responsive and very accessible anytime we called there was always someone who answered immediately. However, they just had covid go through the entire place, but they did the best they could to take care of the problem. She was not as far gone with her memory, but since they treated everyone in memory care the same way it was frustrating.

A Place for Mom has scored Jefferson House 7.2 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.
