Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a substantial amount of praise from reviewers who have had loved ones residing there. Many point out the exceptional care and dedication shown by the staff across various departments, from nurses and aides to the office and kitchen staff. The environment is described as friendly, with a noticeable effort made to resolve issues promptly and effectively. The community's commitment to ensuring residents feel cared for is highlighted, alongside special mentions of the facility’s cleanliness and the absence of undesirable odors commonly associated with nursing homes. Many reviews celebrate the community for making residents happy, maintaining a homely yet medically equipped atmosphere, and for their special efforts on occasions like birthdays, which add a personal touch to the care provided.
However, there are concerns raised in a review about the management of personal items and communication issues, particularly related to the handling and inventory of a resident's belongings, which were reported missing. The review also notes a less than satisfactory encounter with the community's social services department and entrance assistant, suggesting areas that could benefit from improvement in terms of communication and compassion. This contrasts with the majority of reviews that commend the caring nature and professionalism of the nursing staff and overall care environment. Despite the positive feedback dominating the narrative, these points of criticism highlight areas where the community may need to review its procedures and communication practices to ensure consistency in the quality of care and interaction with residents and their families.
