    Clean facility but understaffed, neglectful

    I have mixed feelings. The apartments, newer wing and assisted-living side are clean, comfortable and not at all institutional - activities are plentiful and some staff (housekeeping, aides and a few nurses) work very hard under difficult conditions. But chronic understaffing/underpaid CNAs and awful, sometimes rude RNs left residents neglected (even sitting in their own waste), meals were often cold, and there were real safety/feeding concerns. Communication is poor - phones unanswered, calls not returned, and families were not always told about hospice/ER transfers or end-of-life updates, which destroyed our trust. With stronger staffing and better leadership everywhere (I've seen good leadership here), this place could be exceptional; as it stands I'm not comfortable recommending it for a loved one.

    About Vancrest of Eaton

    Vancrest of Eaton sits at 1600 Park Ave in Eaton, Ohio, and neighbors know it as the Vancrest Health Care Center of Eaton, a place offering both assisted living and skilled nursing care for people who need daily support, and residents get to live in private apartment-style units, with their own kitchenettes, walk-in showers, and wide doors for easier wheelchair access, whether they pick a one-bedroom, an efficiency room, or another option, and every apartment includes its own private bathroom, which is nice for privacy and comfort, and there's always help nearby because trained caregivers stay on-site around the clock to help with activities of daily living like grooming, bathing, dressing, and moving around. The facility features on-site therapy solutions, meaning residents can use physical, occupational, and speech therapy right in the building, and there are skilled nursing services for people needing medical care like medication management, pain management, diabetes care, wound care, and nutrition help, plus Alzeheimer's care and memory support for those needing extra help with cognition, all handled by staff who communicate in English. Meals are offered three times a day in a main dining room, with special diets available as needed, and people have access to common lounges where planned social and recreational activities happen every day, because staying active and connected can help with well-being, and the wellness and exercise programs try to keep people moving, which can be important for health. Residents get help with laundry, housekeeping, and linens, as well as money management services if needed, and there's transportation for doctor's visits, shopping, or community events, plus beauty and barbershop services on site so you don't have to go far for a haircut. Safety is covered by emergency pull cords in each room and security monitoring cameras, and the facility supports both short-term rehabilitation, respite stays, long-term care for chronic needs, and even hospice services when that time comes. Some units or programs-like Fountain Park Home Care or Therapy Solutions-offer extra layers of specialized care, depending on what's needed, and everything is set up to offer a homelike feeling while giving support for daily living, all centered in a building made for easy movement and everyday comfort, so folks can maintain as much independence as possible, though some locations, including this one, might not always have open spots. There's another Vancrest location at 1425 E 5th St in Delphos, Ohio.
