Reviews

Residents and their families say:

The reviews regarding this community offer a mix of praises and concerns from residents and their family members, shedding light on the quality of care and services provided. Many reviewers extolled the staff for their friendliness, compassion, and attentiveness to the residents' needs. They appreciated the clean facility and the quality of the food, with one person highlighting the offering of Cuban coffee in the mornings as a delightful treat. Several reviews mentioned specific instances of excellent care, including a family member of a transferred patient and a person who was rehabilitating from severe injuries. The dedication of the nursing staff and the overall cleanliness of the facility were also noted as positive aspects of the community.
However, the reviews weren’t without their criticisms. The most repeated complaint was about the phone system, which was described as inefficient, often resulting in long waits, disconnections, or calls being transferred to the wrong patients. This issue was a significant frustration for those trying to reach residents by phone. Another negative point raised involved the smell of urine in the hallways, suggesting a lapse in cleanliness in certain areas. While there were mentions of sub-par food and challenges with parking due to crowded streets, these did not overshadow the favorable views many held about the care and environment of the community.
In sum, the community is praised for its caring and attentive staff, clean facilities, and the quality of care provided to residents. The warmth and welcome extended by the staff, alongside the helpfulness and responsiveness, are significant assets. Although there are areas for improvement, notably in the phone system's efficiency and maintaining cleanliness in all areas, these issues do not detract from the overall commendable remarks made by several reviewers. Recommendations from families and residents highlight the community's strengths, suggesting it as a worthy option for those in need of its services.
