Graceland Personal Care Homes

The living quarters, both public and sleeping rooms are above average including laundry and linen service.(no complaints) Meals are very small portions-- breakfast might include a small tablespoon of cold grits on a plate with a bare slice of toasted bread-- no butter ever, sometimes a smidgen of jelly and a 4 ounce cup of coffee.

Lunch was provided by a senior rec-center during Mon-Fri and then supper prepared at Graceland was very small portions again.. but no coffee but a half a glass of "sun-tea".

Breakfast was served at 7:30 AM promptly, but you have to stay in your sleeping room until then. ( No exceptions)

You have to be in your room at 9:00PM until 7:30 AM. No exceptions unless bathroom call. (Saturday and Sunday... until 8:30 AM)

Only privileges were smoking breaks (in back patio area) when allowed. This is the only privileges allowed and is used to maintain discipline for the clients.

Observed night female (Yvonne) attendant playing Gin-Rummy with client for cash frequently and demanding to be paid her winnings by him. ( In this case $10) 10-08-2010 evening

MY biggest complaint was the cavalier way that I was administered my Blood pressure meds.. on 10-09-2010 (because of over medication) my blood pressure was 69 over 31. When I tried to inform the staff (not complain) I was told not to worry about it. (I have my own blood pressure cuff from VA Hosp.) To be safe... the client-patient needs to monitor their own dosages, I believe here,

The cost that they expect is $1450 per month. Make your own opinions!

Very, very regimented...
