Best Care Senior Living at Heritage Manor was the filthiest, dirtiest place I have ever been in my life. It's mostly for indigent people with mental health issues. They're all 100% Medicaid. They're two to a room and four to a bathroom. All of the amenities are outside with the exception of the dining hall, which smells like a 100-year-old diner in it. They've never changed the grease in their fryers. It was the stinky, nastiest place I've ever been. It might have been an apartment complex, and they took a one-bedroom apartment, and cut it into two large bedrooms, and then made an outside…

It might have been an apartment complex, and they took a one-bedroom apartment, and cut it into two large bedrooms, and then made an outside hall to the bathroom. They put two people in each bedroom, and then you have to walk down the hall to the bathroom. The staff who gave the tour could have cared less if we were there or not. She took it as an affront that we interrupted her day. The tour was really bad. The facility was so awful.
Best Care Senior Living at Heritage Manor was nice on the outside, but the inside didn't look clean at all. When I arrived for the tour, they didn't have anybody available. They had two people that work there, but they were taking something out of the office. So, the maintenance man was the one who gave me the tour. The staff was just sitting around and I just didn't think it was a good place for my dad. The rooms had no privacy. It was just a sheet that went across to divide the other side. It smelled, and the linen and all the stuff that was on the bed were heavily soiled. It had holes in…

It was at the back of a convenience store and it just had this little sign. They should tear the place down and redo it. I feel so sorry for those people living there because it was not a good place for an older person to be living in.

All best care living facilities should be shut down!! They do not care about their residents and just make fun of them and do everything but what they are asked to do. You’re being paid to make sure these people get what they need which isn’t much. And you guys can’t even do that at not one of the facilities. Very unprofessional and should be shut down, especially the one in port richey.
Best Care Senior Living at Heritage Manor is one of the four places I've checked to see about whether I was going to live there or not. It's rundown. Most of the people there looked like they were homeless before they got there. They just don't appear to be the most intelligent people in the world, and the facility is just old. The staff were knowledgeable enough, but they told me that I probably wouldn't fit in there, and I said, "Yes, I probably wouldn't." The rooms were extremely plain. The floors were like linoleum. The furniture was cheap. There's not very much in the rooms at all other than two beds and a nightstand. They have a nice dining area. It's just not what I would have anticipated for that kind of money. The staff member who toured me around was friendly and knowledgeable. I didn't really get into their activities because I wasn't really interested in staying there. The residents there were sitting around in an outside patio area, and that's pretty much it.
I’ve been here six months. This place is a dump. The residents, are always arguing. Staff didn’t care. The food sucks. Not a good place for anyone. They only care about the money. Don’t bring your love ones here.
Our family had an in person tour and the tour was nice but nothing really stood out to us about the community.
Do not send your family members here if you love them. The place is run down, the care is subpar, and there is no communication between the staff and the family. From my experience visiting my family member, the rooms are disgusting and look like they are cleaned every 6 months. The garbage in the resident room was overflowing. Food is horrible (example: chicken patty and cold fries for breakfast); no nutritional value. The COVID policies are extremely lacking. I witnessed staff walking around serving food without a mask when interacting with residents and I was told residents were not even provided with masks. It's so sad that they are still an operating business. Don't be fooled by the pictures online.
