The Barrington at Hioaks

This is the most amazing facility for your loved ones. When my father arrived he was stunned by the quality of the care here. Their attention to detail shows the love that their employees have not only for the residents but for each other. I highly recommend them! When employees are happy at their job it shows in their faces and the way they treat each other and their guests. You can see that each staff member takes pride in doing their job with love and making every detail perfect for the residents. It doesn't feel like a nursing home it feels like a very nice apartment complex with a restaurant style dining room and a movie theater!

My mother was lured here under the promise that she'd be able to keep her unusually large but old and friendly dog (a Newfoundland: if you know the breed then you know). It was not six weeks until they demanded $700 a month in cleaning fees for Gemma. I've cleaned up after that dog's hair at earlier apartments and KNOW it doesn't cost that much. This was a complete grift, and we left ASAP. The facility has other problems as well. The food is terrible - nothing unusual for an ALF there - but the medical staff is unprofessional to the point it is downright unethical. My mother had blood withdrawn for no clear reason, and when I asked for the results the chief nurse at the facility stonewalled me for months. We've since left the facility and I still haven't gotten any paperwork. There's just something off about these people as an organization. I hope all RUI facilities aren't like this but I hope even more deeply that I'll never know for sure. I regret putting my mother there, but I'm glad I got her out when I did.

My mom stayed in the memory care unit here and I feel she received excellent care. The staff is extremely kind and caring, and did an excellent job engaging my mom with the community. This was a difficult time for us as it was my mom's first experience with assisted living and she was suffering from dementia. Knowing she was in good hands of caring, capable people provided some needed comfort.
