Good caregivers, smaller number of residents, more caregivers per resident than before, very helpful for family. The caregivers and management…caring, patient and loving.
Love Home Setting
You have been so easy to work with and have been very understanding of my financial situation. The staff at the Lakewood home on Upham St. are incredible and engaging. I LOVE how it is a home setting and not a huge nursing home!

Wonderful Staff
My brother, Dallas York was at Applewood Our House from June 2022 until he passed January 2023.
Yes, the facility was always clean and physical needs were always met.
But I just want to let the admin know what wonderful staff you have. The care he received was top notch, and I have to say it was from the hearts of your staff. They were so kind and caring that I never questioned if the end of his life was good. Alyssa, Deja, Jae, Faith, Corinna, Amanda and I know I am missing some of the others, who I have unfortunately forgotten their names. Even after he passed, I still received calls from there to see how I was doing.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the care and love your staff gave my brother.
Love to all of you,
Raynita York Stovall”
Love & Patience
I just wanted to send a quick email to thank you all for taking in my dad when you did. We were in a really dire situation and you all made it seem so easy. I don’t think any of us thought my dad would only be there a couple weeks but I am so thankful his final couple weeks were great and he was in a comforting, warm place. I truly think he was finally able to relax. His old facility treated him as a burden and I think he picked up on that. You all set him at ease and showed him so much love and patience. I will be forever thankful for you all. You are truly wonderful people. Thank you for treating my dad with respect and love. Dolly did not leave my dad’s door after his passing.”
Hi Norma
“Hi, Norma, I want to thank you for your wonderful care of Andy. I especially want thank you for telling Andy that you loved him. Maybe other staff did as well. It helps me to know that Andy heard the words, I love you, in his last days on earth, because I was unable to do that. I think I told you that there was a restraining order until his court case was dismissed. That dismissal didn’t happen until end of May!!! Then there was Covid-19! By the time I was free to at least talk to him by phone through the window, he was unable to converse much, mostly answer questions. So I have many regrets about the circumstances that kept me from seeing him and telling him that I loved him. So I am grateful to you.”
I Was Impressed
“While I’m writing to you, let me add some praise for the team as well. Early in May in the afternoon I called to talk to my Mom, and she was upset, asking to go home etc. She didn’t want to talk long and she put the phone down and nobody hung it up. I listened in to the room for almost an hour. My Mom was agitated and was requiring a lot of attention, and the caregivers were wonderful with her. I think Dawn was one of them, I’m not sure who else was there. (Oh! I do know when it was though, it was May 2nd at around 3-3:30pm.) They were both very patient with Mom and they did all the right things. They offered her coffee, tried to interest her in various things. I was impressed. I’m not sure if I’d been there, I’d have been that patient or nice. I just wanted to tell somebody this before I forget. I was very pleased to hear how kind and caring both women were with my Mom, and I could tell they had other people to deal with too. It made me even more confident of the fact that Mom is in the right place. Kudos!!”
