Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community is frequently praised for its wonderful setting and state-of-the-art facilities, specifically designed with seniors in mind. The layout includes separate neighborhoods that encompass residents' rooms, a living room with a TV area, a nurse station, and a common space, all underpinned by great lighting which contributes to a warm atmosphere. The care staff is lauded for their kindness and dedication, creating an environment that many would find desirable for their living space in later years. The sense of community is strong, reinforced by a family-oriented approach that seems to extend not just to the residents but to the employees as well.
However, despite the numerous positive comments about the environment and the people, there are hints that it's a new experience for some, which might suggest occasional challenges or a learning curve in adapting to this innovative setting. This is not elaborated upon significantly, meaning that for the most part, the experience delivered by this community is both appreciated and celebrated by those who interact with it. The employees, in addition to the residents, are acknowledged for their sweetness and overall good performance, although this does not negate the minor and less specific adjustments that may come with any new organization or setting.
