Residents and their families say:

This community has received mixed reviews from its residents and their families, highlighting a range of experiences. Many positive remarks focus on the kind, caring, and responsive nature of the staff, with several reviewers expressing satisfaction with the care received. For instance, one person undergoing rehabilitation to walk again praised the staff's niceness and attentiveness to patients' needs, while another recovering from back surgery commended the community for its exceptional care, cleanliness, and efforts to meet their needs, including addressing specific complaints about bedding and providing alternatives to uncomfortable supplies.
However, there are notable concerns raised by several reviewers that point to areas needing improvement. Multiple complaints were made about the management of patients' needs, including instances of neglect such as failure to prevent or properly address bedsores, and lack of timely response to emergency buzzers, suggesting a shortfall in attentive care in some cases. Additionally, concerns were raised about the facility engaging in practices such as placing patients in diapers unnecessarily and the serving of food that was often cold, detracting from patients' comfort and dignity. These criticisms underline the importance of consistent, quality care and the need for this community to address specific operational shortcomings to ensure all residents receive the level of care they deserve.
