My father-in-law was a patient of Faire Acres for over a decade! He had his money and clothing stolen a number of times. We believe it was the employee/s at Fair Acres. If you have a roommate that is non-verbal, your chances are higher to have things/money stolen. My father-in-law was afraid to stand up and say something because he felt that they would take his complaints out on his care. We believe a handful cared about my father-in-law but most put on a front when we were visiting. Please, Please, think twice before placing your family/friends into this facility. In conclusion, I cannot recommend Fair Acres due to a combination of the factors listed along with a long list of others.

They do not have a good level of care they are prejudice against overweight people. They did not change his catheter which lead to infection then his death, Fair Acres staff are lucky we did NOT sue them,it was was because of my Aunt that we did not. they placed Dad with a man chanting I want to die all day long he The staff did not care If you love some one don't put them in this pee smelling place

horrible place of employment. every woman there is miserable. and I believe that's because there's no excitement in their lives, but bringing negatively and being rude to others. They ALL are no help, ESPECIALLY those women in the OFFICES. They lie to get you in the door. If your a nurse, your worked like a slave. if your a CNA, your given work work work like your a supervisor or RN. Food service workers are all pt until a FULL time position open. they have 8hr & 4hr shift which in reality are 2hr & 4-6 working hrs... the rest your standing around trying to find work or hiding from supervisors & mgrs. the workers are nasty, unsanitary, and not qualified. I was speaking food jargon & they were lost. one didn't know what "marry" meant. it's just upsetting to understand this is a GOVERNMENT building. Do Better.
I started Sept 30th & it's oct 25th... I worked a total of 13shifts, was scheduled for 16 ridiculous, but they want you to give open availability. HORRIBLE wouldn't recommend.. feels like what going to Chester High would be like & I was good younger and I'm good now.

The care and communication is very good. Please note that most of the poor reviews come from staff that are unhappy. This affects treatment but these issues should be aired administratively and not as a review of patient care. We have had experience in other facilities and Fair Acres standard of care is much higher and more consistent. Money is not their motivator as it is in the private facilities. Our family has been treated with respect and genuine care.

My mother was at Fair Acres for two months before passing away this week. They couldn't have been more caring, professional, organized and thoughtful. She had been in private facilities for well over 4 years and never experienced the attention and care she received here. The compassion I received as my mom died and the attention she received in her last hours is something I'll never forget. I am truly grateful I chose Fair Acres. She was in Building 6 ground floor. I just had to give kudos to the staff. Thank you!

My mother Joan Klauder has been in Fair Acres for 21 years. She has been on the 12th, 10, 2 & 5 floors and has always had very good care & friendly support from the entire staff. She been given gifts and sweet treats and love through out the years from lots of the staff and visiting church groups and Friends & Fair Acres.

Once my Mom went to the hospital for what we feared was a stroke but it was Bell's Palsy. While in the hospital the staff called the hospital and checked on her regularly. Her bed and room was tidy up for her return.

Communication by Fair Acres staff to me has been very good!!
I thank you Fair Acres patient care team for taking good care of my mom and all the extra special things you all do for her.

Mom is 76 this month. She always feels safe in Fair Acres care. I think it’s pretty amazing for 21 years of my mom’s life she has been in Fair Acres and well cared for.

Thank to everyone at Fair Acres for the care you have all taken during the Pandemic. Thanks for keeping Mom Covid free..

This place should be called Unfair Acres! There is no staff so they mandate almost every single day you are at risk of being fired if you say no Administration is out of touch with reality although you're working extremely short most of the time they don't even give us anything for Nurses Week the residents cannot get the proper care when you don't have enough staff to take care of them they get the bare minimum done for them. Great benefits if you can survive the poor work conditions
