Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered praise for its compassionate and inviting staff, with numerous reviews highlighting the excellent care and attention provided by the medical personnel. Many reviewers appreciated the genuine interest in their health and well-being, noting that staff from various departments, including emergency room, radiology, and nursing, were nothing short of wonderful. One reviewer specifically thanked medical personnel for their efficient, caring approach and for addressing patients' needs in a timely manner, echoing sentiments of gratitude towards the staff's professionalism and customer focus. Furthermore, the community was commended for its clean facilities and friendly atmosphere, which contributed to a positive experience for patients undergoing various treatments and procedures. The Swingbed program, in particular, received special mention for its excellent nursing staff, meals, and physical therapy.
However, not all experiences were positive. Some reviewers expressed disappointment, particularly with specific instances of care. One mentioned a nurse practitioner making them uncomfortable regarding their weight, combined with a poor technique in drawing blood that resulted in physical discomfort. Another reviewer voiced concerns over not being taken seriously in the emergency room and felt neglected regarding their treatment. There were also mentions of insufficient communication about treatment plans, leading to frustration. Despite these criticisms, the overall sentiment leaned positively towards the community's ability to provide attentive and professional care, making it a recommended choice for medical needs.
