Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered high praise for its exceptional staff and the quality of care they provide. Many reviewers highlight the staff's loving, caring, and welcoming nature, often describing them as family to the residents. The cleanliness of the facility is frequently praised, with one review from a paramedic noting it as one of the cleanest homes they've seen, a sentiment echoed across other reviews which also commend the hygiene and maintenance standards of the premises. The food receives positive feedback for its quality, and the variety of activities and the availability of comfortable outdoor areas like a gazebo are appreciated for enhancing the residents' quality of life. The respect and special attention given to veterans, ensuring they maintain dignity, is particularly noted and commended.
However, there is a note of concern from one reviewer regarding the refusal of admission to a veteran due to his care needs, which stands out as a singular negative point amidst the positivity. This contrast with the overall highly positive experience shared by many families and visitors, who express deep satisfaction with the care their loved ones receive, emphasizes a nearly unanimous confidence and approval of the facility. The sense of community, excellent patient care, and the commitment of staff to treat residents like family, alongside a high level of cleanliness and good food, are consistently highlighted, making this community a favored choice for many families.
