Review for The Rutherford Memory Care
Staff so far seems very friendly and nice to my father. Facility is very clean and they keep his room very clean. They do several activities everyday that my dad enjoys. We are working on the care of my dad he has been at the facility 7 weeks. Due to his decline in health at the moment it's taking an adjustment with his care. But I believe it will get better in the next couple of weeks.

Staff communication is very poor. Trying to get information on incidents is difficult. Staff training seems inadequate. Response to requests poor. Not at the top of my recommend list.

Love the staff. Mother in law says food not very good. However, we would recommend The Rutherford Memory Care to other families based on the experience so far.

I am well pleased with the facility. The activity director is fantastic. She keeps the residents busy with activities and trips. The staff interact with the residents and my husband enjoys their attention. The staff seem to get along well with each other and work hard to meet the needs of the residents. The facility got new management last year and new staff. It has made quite a difference in my opinion. My only complaint is the laundry being put in various places but I’m sure my husband is responsible for the problem. I’m sure the staff do the best they can. I wish I could eliminate the smell in his room. The main areas are decorated beautifully for the seasons and the resident's work.

Always short staffed. She fell twice that I knew of and lay on the floor for hours before she was found. Never engaged her in any activity. Never tried to get her to eat, it was awful and so under educated.

My sister has been a resident here for close to two years. Initially, I was concerned as it was further away from where I live than I wanted. However, once I visited the facility and noted its cleanliness and nice furnishings, I felt reassured it was the the right place for her. I have been reassured over and over again of this not only due to the facility itself. Indeed, the primary reason is due to the hearts of all the staff. Residents truly become part of an extended family with staff going above and beyond to show loving and kindness to the residents. I will be forever grateful to and for all of them.

My sister has been in mc for about 8 mos. I can't give the facility and staff enough praise and gratitude. When she went there she had some anger issues and refused to get out of bed! They have gotten her meds figured out and she smiles and is up an dressed every time I go to visit. I can't ask for anything more. The staff keeps me informed on her progress and when the Dr. changes anything. For the first time in along time I know I can rest assured she is safe and in good hands. VERY greatful for them

The staff are very nice and caring to the patients. We picked this community because of the convenience of the location.I would recommend more social activities to keep their minds active. The memory care staff are very nice. And the nurses also. I loved the fact that a nurse was there.

Their on staff doctor was very unreliable and unreachable. He prescribed a medicine we could not afford and would not work with the drug company in order for us to join a financial aid program. He just left us high and dry. I do not recommend Rutherford Memory Care I can't speak towards the care giver staff. The experience with the doctor is what caused me to not even consider them.

My mom was declined placement at our first choice, but Rutherford quickly “came to our rescue”. Red flag? Probably. Second night, got call my mom had fallen. Every night, a call would come that she had fallen but “she was fine” or she bumped her head. Her last day, she had multiple falls…VM said, she’s “OK”. A couple hours later, a call comes that my mother passed away. Strange. My mother was very ill. She was on Hospice and had dementia which is why a skilled/experienced staff in memory care was so important. So why didn’t the lead nurse or anyone on staff understand that My mom was ALWAYS going to get out of bed on her own. I told staff. I told administrators in advance when talking about residency. For a couple of weeks the “experienced staff” DID NOT understand why my mom wouldn’t/couldn’t ring the bell or read the “call before you fall” sign before she got up. This is only 1K characters worth!

The staff that was there were great, but there were about 25% of the staff needed. This is a lovely place. The food is ok, but not great. The staff is lovely but there just aren't enough of them to care for the number of residents they have. The community kept my loved one safe, but my loved one could have been cared for better with the appropriate staff.

The Rutherford, like all of the places we toured, could have been a viable place for our loved one. It seemed like a good facility. It seemed to provide the same level of service and care as the other places we toured. We chose based on proximity to where we live.

I would not put anyone in this facility. It was a good tour but it was dirty, dark and just seemed run down. We had a friend who had a loved one here and they did not have a good experience.

The value for the money is pretty good. Everything seems to be good, and there has been a lot of interaction. I chose this place because it doesn't give a hospital-type atmosphere, like other places that I have visited.

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Memory Care. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Know Tennessee’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Tennessee’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.
Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
