Jefferson's Ferry Lifecare Retirement

June, 2025 After a recent visit I would like to update my opinion. Any and all meals that I ate in the Cafe were absolutely delicious on my visit in June, 2025! The varity of meals were extensive. Even a glass of water with cucumber and lime was amazing. I'm not sure when this change took place, but I so much appreciate that my mother can enjoy a delicious meal and I would not hesitate to encourage anyone with an elderly relative to have them move into Jefferson's Ferry Retirement Community. My family and I had been very happy with my mother's choice to move to Jefferson Ferry several years ago. We were delighted to join her for a delicious meal in either the well appointed dining room overlooking the man-made lake or in the more casual cafe. Regrettably the food at Jefferson Ferry has not retained the high quality it once had. The food is lukewarm, served in a pool of grease, referred to as gravy with vegetables which make no attempt at being fresh. The flavorless out-of-season fruit does not make a welcome addition to what is served. A dry tasteless dessert culminates the already awful meal. Visiting the cafe or the dining room for the evening meal used to be the highlight of my mother's day. She enjoyed a delicious meal, at least two selections were available, as well as the company of her new friends. Due to COVID the residents are quarantined to their apartments. While this is understandable, sitting alone attempting to ingest a "meal" of lumpy grease is not. Why is the most enjoyable part of the day being taken from our parents? Also, my mother has lost considerable weight which is a huge concern for her family. The price of Jefferson Ferry has gone up 35% and they are building a new wing to accommodate additional residents. Apparently they are doing well financially. MY QUESTION IS - Why aren't they taking care of the residents they have?
