What should families ask Mapleview before choosing it?
Start with the state record: ask Mapleview about anything in its LARA reports, then about cost, staffing and what would force a move.
- LARA established this allegation: “Staff left residents alone at the facility.” What changed afterward, and can we see the corrective action plan?
- If memory loss progresses, at what point would the home ask for a move, and how much notice is given?
- What is the all-in monthly cost at the current care level, and what triggers a higher rate?
- Does the licensee or a manager live in or work on site, and who covers when they are away?
