Reviews Clark Retirement Community at Franklin
October 2024
April 2024
My loved one was at Clark for 8 years. During that time, he entered clark with his wife but sadly she passed during their time there. He was moved to a few different floors due to his progressing needs while at Clark. Most recently, he had been on the memory care unit for over 2 years. He loved Clark and would always tell anyone who would listen "this is my home now!" Despite the lack of staffing and the slow response to call lights, as a family, we overlooked that because he was happy to be at Clark. We were totally caught off guard when called in for a family meeting in which we were told that we'd have to find different placement because Clark could no longer handle his needs. After he had been there for 8 years, was very happy, etc. it was just shocking to be told this. He is in great physical help, needed no assistance eating or toileting, but he's forgetful as he's 91 and has Alzheimer's. We thought that he was in the perfect place to handle his needs. There are several other residents much more progressed in their diseases. Over the amount of time that he was at Clark, between him and his wife's care, he has spent over a million dollars to be their resident, for it to end so abruptly like this. As a family, we had to remove him from Clark to provide him better care elsewhere. I would not wish this nightmare upon anybody, as he was being moved out several staff members were equally as shocked as we were and said that "he was always a joy." This treatment of a resident is despicable and totally unforeseen when you think that you've found a safe and secure place for your elder.

Nothing but kudos for Clark and their staff. No matter the need, they are always ready-at-the-wait for my mother and step-dad and the facilities are prepared for every level of care for the retired. From the fantastic dining, to the woodshed, to the gym, to the mental health programs, Clark is just perfect (and I don't say that casually),

We moved my father to skilled nursing here after having a poor experience elsewhere. They seem very attentive and intentional about involving him in activities. They take COVID precautions seriously. The facility is nice and the staff are welcoming. I only wish they had more options for freedom as he is almost completely wheelchair bound but still has the mental capacity and energy beyond most in skilled nursing and would prefer to be in assisted living.

Not perfect but they come close. As someone who was a caseworker for adults who couldn't live independently, and visited many, many care settings, I am aware that any facility that has as many residents and as many staff as Clark will have a few issues occasionally. It's the overall day to day care that matters. That said, we are very happy with Clark. My dad, who spent 2 days a week (for many years) visiting people in almost every care setting in the GR area, chose Clark for himself and mom. I think He made a good choice. He has passed on, but mom has been there several years. It's clean, in good repair, has many activities, and staff are kind and competent. We visit frequently at all hours, eat in their dining hall with mom at least once a week, and some of us have spent the night with mom. Mom is mentally all there and is also well satisfied. I'd recommend you consider it.

I can only speak for the parts of the facilities that I've seen. It has never looks dirty or overly aged and the staff has always been helpful and kind. I visit my grandmother there and she has been in independent living for a couple years now and has also been in rehab twice. Independent Living is much better than Rehabilitation. Rehabilitation of course never has enough staff ( true almost anywhere you go) and is not the most rigorous facility for quick recovery. But it is in-house so my grandmother was able to still be with her friends, which was more important. Since they change food vendor's, the quality has gone down and I have noticed when dining with her that the poor serving staff are forced to constantly apologize for this. ( something they have no control over) this is a very expensive facility and Extras will cost you extra money. But they have multiple stages of care which is what my grandmother wanted so she wouldn't have to get used to a new environment if she needed to change levels of care. It also has a Buy in program so if your money Runs Out you won't be kicked out period I think this brings a lot of Peace of Mind to my grandmother.

My parents moved there in the fall of 2005. Mom needed more care. She died in 2007. Dad lived at Clark until 2010 when he passed away. Both received very good care. I was at Clark at all times of day. The staff is caring, the buildings are clean, the food is good. I would recommend Clark. My family found great comfort with the policies of Life Time Care. If a Clark Resident outlives their money they can continue to live at Clark.
