Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered a mix of feedback from patients, with many highlighting the positive interactions with the staff and the care they received. Several reviewers praised the politeness and professionalism of the staff, from nurses to doctors, and appreciated the overall cleanliness and ease of navigating the facility. The sentiment of "southern hospitality" was echoed, suggesting a warm and welcoming environment, particularly noted in the care and concern for patients and their families. The nurses, in particular, received high praise for going above and beyond in their care, exhibiting wonderful bedside manners and ensuring patients felt attended to at all times. Improvements seen over time in the facility were also acknowledged, alongside the quick and attentive response to medical needs which was a relief to many.
However, not everything was seen through rose-tinted glasses as some critical points were raised concerning the patient experience. A negative note was made about the approach to handling patients with COVID-19, where a reviewer felt dehumanized by being asked to wait outside, lacking a more empathetic treatment approach. Further critique came from another patient who felt that the doctors in the ER were not thorough in their examinations and seemed dismissive, not taking enough time to listen to concerns or explain the situation, which diminished their trust in the care provided. Additionally, a few operational aspects like the ER registration process were mentioned as areas for improvement. Despite these criticisms, the community appears to hold a place of trust for many in their times of need, bolstered by the dedication and kindness of most of its staff.
