Staff became Family

The staff was the biggest plus, the staff are wonderful. The location was convenient, easy parking, very nice outdoor space for visits and we would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had.

Review for Friends Home in Kennett

My main problem with Friénd's Home is that most of the people here are much older than me. The average age is mid to late 80's.The community would be better for someone older.

Accommodating Staff

Friends Home in Kennett is a smaller, caring community, with a more home-like atmosphere. They go out of their way to accommodate special needs of residents.

Cozy and Comfortable Home

Overall my family member is happy at Friends Home. It's a warm and friendly place. Both the residents and the staff are lovely. She has had some leaks in her apartment. And there have been issues with cleanliness and food service - both related to short-staffing. But other than that, it's a very comfortable and friendly place. They're trying to resolve any issues, so I'm hoping things will get better moving forward. And my loved one is content there.

Very satisfied

I would recommend this facility to other families. I will say, it wouldn't be the best fit for a resident who likes to stay pretty active. The residents here seem less active and content with kind of doing their own thing or simple things. They do have activities, but they're mostly card games. My mom has mentioned she'd like to have more of a variety, but is ok with the card games for the most part. The staff has been really good. They are friendly and caring, they've been wonderful. The facility is very clean. Th

Blessing!

We prayed for the right home for mom. We looked at our 3 options with mom as we knew this would be her new home, not ours. We definitely made the right choice! Mom said "I'm Home" at the end of the tour at Friends Home in Kennett! She has the love, peace, and joy that I haven't seen in a long time after being a widow for many years. All the staff are amazing in how they use their God given gifts and talents to take care of mom and the other wonderful residents! It's nice to see the residents build loving relation
