Papa (Ernest Rumuly) has been a resident here for just over 5 years. They are a great memory care facility. The staff makes it great indeed. We love that they do so many outings with him. They even took papa fishing!

My father was part of the Poet’s Walk community for just over a month before he passed away recently. The team at Poet’s Walk were very compassionate and treated my father who had dementia with dignity and respect. I cannot say enough positive comments about the people that work here, they really care and frequently go out of their way to be helpful. They not only treated my father well, they treated my family well also. I will always be grateful for my fathers time here at Poet’s Walk. Russ H.
These folks work well as a team. I’ve seen them show respect and compassion to patients each time I visit.
Just recently relocated my dad from another AL place down the street to Poet’s Walk. My father wasn’t quite ready but needed the trained personnel that I knew a memory care facility would be able to provide. The staff at Poet’s Walk couldn’t be more accommodating, they helped facilitate the paperwork and my dad was welcomed with open arms! Someone from each of the programs has personally introduced themselves and pledged to offer my father as well as myself, any assistance to make the transition as smooth as it can be!
We have been part of the Poet’s Walk family for two months now and are very happy to have found it. My sister and I were quite concerned with how our mother would react to being moved from her home into a memory facility. She had a very set routine at home and had quiet days without much interaction with others. Well the move could not have gone any better! On the first day most staff members came by her room to introduce themselves and to welcome her. They even gave her welcoming gifts! A few staff were then assigned to her for the first week to provide her with some familiar faces regularly and to ensure she was adjusting well. After the first week I was given an update that “your mother is not just adjusting well, she is thriving!” I saw for myself how true this was. So many activities and social events are offered at Poet’s Walk daily. At first my mother needed some encouragement to attend but after the first few days she began to seek activities out on her own. She now attends almost every activity and is rarely in her own room. Even between activities she often prefers just hanging out on Main Street with the other residents and socializing. My mom is happier now and more involved in life then she was at home. This has eased our concerns and makes us very happy to see her so happy. Thank you Poet’s Walk staff for the wonderful work that you do taking care of our mother and for the nurturing environment you provide!
