"My mother has been in the memory care unit Revere for approximately 3.5 years. Recently my mom took a fall out of her wheelchair chair about a month and a half ago She hit her head and has a hairline fracture on her ankle. She has been transported to her doctors appointments at least 2 times by the facility and once by private medical because they were booked. She is currently 91. Recently I was told that I needed to pay $40/hour for a caregiver to go with her on the bus. I meet my mom at her doctor appointments and follow up with the facility for doctors orders afterwards. A caregiver went on her second trip but the last two visits nobody ride with her. I have requested a meeting but as of today no response. I am highly disappointed." - D…

"Prices randomly go up. No transparency as to how prices are calculated. Recently changed medication management fee, no 30day notice or how prices calculated. Initially increased price, then said they miscalculated and increased again retroactively, had PCP reduce medications, temporarily reduced back to original level, then randomly retroactively increased to higher level and said cost now includes PRN medications taken at most once a year. Many services added onto service plan are not done but we are being charged. Fee is supposed to include making bed which they never do, housekeeping which is suboptimal and sometimes not at all, food is very institutionalized. When you ask a question about pricing they fail to provide clear answers and threaten to kick out if you don't like it. Many elderly especially with memory issues would rather stay at familiar location even if suboptimal; therefore, recommend look very hard at all options before moving in loved one." - Sid…
