Samaritas Affordable Living of Alpena

No matter if I am volunteering, assisting an elderly person, or there for other community reasons, there is always one woman in management who is mean, crabby, short tempered, unhelpful, and just plain rude. I cannot tell if she hates her job, other people, or life in general. She definitely does not belong in a place that requires kindness and compassion and it would make me uneasy to leave an elderly relative alone to deal with her or be subjected to her treatment. I'm giving three stars because there are other people under her that are wonderful and helpful. The units themselves are decent but dated. I definitely wouldn't look here first to find a place for someone to live based mostly on the crabby manager and her miserable interactions.

Only for people who are not well enough to live on their own which I am. The big selling point stated to me was 2 tokens for free bus rides to all my dr visits If I need to go to a Dr 24 times a year I need a lot of help.

Definately need better management! They don't know how to talk to people an it's sad. Apartments are clean but really really small....I think just recommended for one person.

Management could show a little More interest in Residents concerns, Warmer toward the lonely people.. A Smile never killed anyone!

Really nice place i deliver food to elderly and the staff and people living there are very involved and friendly
