My father-in-law was in this facility for several months. Their idea of "activities" was throwing a box of puzzles on the table and then walking away. Most of the staff acted like they had never dealt with dementia patients before because they would yell at the residents. I should say that there were some employees there that were good but they were few and far between. Even the head nurse was yelling at one of the residents one day when we were there. Clearly, she had no clue how to deal with someone with dementia. They are also careless with medication. For example, there was a point where they contacted the family to report that my father-in-law’s blood pressure medicine needed to be refilled (which was alarming since it had just been refilled). Come to find out, they had been giving him his meds wrong and were doubling his medication. His blood pressure was dangerously low. Thank God my brother-in-law realized what was going on and straightened them out. The food was mediocre at best. A former worker there told us that the facility would serve the "good food" to the other section of the facility and serve the “left over” to the dementia section. The facility was simply a "warehouse" housing the residents. When my father-in-law was first there, it was much better. I'm not sure if they changed management or what happened, but it went downhill rapidly. We moved my father-in-law to another facility and he received wonderful care. If I were someone placing my loved one in a memory care facility, I would think long and hard before placing them at Green Meadows in Dover (Emeritus). When submitting this review, I was asked to choose a "star rating" - there should be a choice for a negative number for this facility.
