Reviews

Residents and their families say:

The sentiment toward this community is predominantly positive, with families expressing deep gratitude for the caring and professional treatment their loved ones receive. Many reviewers highlighted the compassionate nature of the staff, who are frequently described as treating residents like family. Satisfied families have noticed a significant level of care and attention to detail in the well-being and safety of their loved ones, with some pointing out the cleanliness of the facility and the dedication of the nurses and CNAs. The positive experiences have been notably enhanced by the staff's efforts to make residents feel at home, offering choices and prioritizing their comfort and happiness.
However, not all feedback is glowing. Concerns have been raised about security and the safeguarding of personal belongings, with one reviewer recounting a prolonged and uncomfortable stay due to fears of theft, culminating in a substantial loss. This issue of missing items was echoed by another, suggesting a potential area for the community to address. Despite these issues, many families have found peace of mind with the level of care provided to their relatives, making it clear that the strengths of this community, particularly its dedicated and loving staff, often outweigh the negatives for most residents and their families.
