Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered numerous positive statements from reviewers, who commend the helpful, considerate, caring, and understanding staff, spanning from CNAs, nurses, housekeeping, kitchen personnel, activities coordinators, to the administrative team. Many expressed gratitude for the kind and caring environment, emphasizing the clean, well-kept facility and the warmth and compassion shown not only to the residents but also to family members. The community’s dedication to treating residents like family, the superb rehabilitation services, and the attention to individual care and dietary needs were frequently highlighted. Reviewers specifically praised the community for its noticeable cleanliness, modern amenities, and a friendly, professional staff that goes above and beyond to ensure residents' comfort and safety, especially during challenging times like the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, not all comments were favorable. A shared concern arose from a reviewer regarding difficulties in communication, particularly mentioning the absence of responses to calls and messages related to activity coordination. Despite this, the overarching narrative remains highly positive, focusing on the exceptional care, the comprehensive efforts to provide personalized treatment, and creating a welcoming, family-like atmosphere. The team's hard work and dedication, especially in ensuring the safety and well-being of the residents through the pandemic, further cement the community’s reputation. The ability of the staff to maintain high standards of service even when faced with staffing challenges and the variety of engaging activities and well-maintained facilities also received considerable commendation.
