Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received high praise for being one of the best facilities, especially noted for its cleanliness and well-stocked supplies. Many reviewers highlighted the helpful staff and the high level of care provided, which is attributed to the community's commitment to empowering its employees. The ongoing renovations and expansions are seen as positive steps toward enhancing the facility further. It offers all levels of care, including a memory unit, and boasts beautiful gardens and a well-maintained campus. The care is described as exceptional, with employees going above and beyond for the residents.
However, some concerns were raised, including difficulties in entering the building after business hours and navigating the interior, suggesting a need for improved access and guidance. The outsourced caregivers have also reported finding entry challenging. While the community was not the first choice for one reviewer due to these issues, the feedback about the quality of care remained positive. Dietary preferences have been raised as an area for improvement, with suggestions for healthier, non-processed food options. Additionally, the cost of living in this community and extra charges for essentials like Depends were mentioned as drawbacks, making it unaffordable for some families. Despite these concerns, the community's strengths in staff support, care quality, and facilities seem to stand out most to reviewers.
