Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community receives mixed reviews, with multiple positive comments focusing on the cleanliness of the facility, the professionalism, and friendliness of the staff, and the quality of the physical therapy provided. Several reviewers highlighted the caretakers' attentiveness and the physical therapy team's effectiveness in aiding recovery and rehabilitation, which greatly benefitted patients. The facility's cleanliness and the option to enjoy outdoor spaces, such as gardens, were also appreciated. Additionally, the provision of good food and snacks contributed to a comfortable stay for some residents, with one noting that their friend had gained weight and was walking a little during their time there.
However, the community has areas that require improvement. Criticisms include the small size of the rooms, making it difficult for wheelchair maneuvering, and the issue of noise from the hallways. Complaints about the dietary department not adhering to personal likes and dislikes were mentioned. The sharing of a single bathroom by four beds and the overall darkness due to low ceilings were also seen as drawbacks. Another negative point raised by more than one reviewer was the repetitive and bland nature of the food, suggesting a need for more variety and flavor enhancement in the meals. Parking was noted to be limited and problematic for visitors, although one reviewer appreciated that parking fees next door were reimbursed.
Despite the criticisms, several reviewers recommended the facility, particularly praising its staff and rehabilitation services. The positive impacts of therapy, coupled with the staff's care and the facility's environment, contributed to notable improvements in patients' conditions. The sense of community and the efforts made to ensure a positive experience for both residents and their families were recurrent themes in the positive feedback. However, the mentioned areas of improvement suggest a need for attention to enhance the living experience further.
