Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a range of feedback from its patrons, with many highlighting the positive aspects of their stay. Several reviewers praised the community for its excellent food, the responsiveness and friendliness of the personal care assistants (PCAs), and the high quality of the therapy department, which includes experienced therapists with great evaluation skills. The community's efforts to provide a clean environment and cater to various dietary needs, including vegan and gluten-free options, have also been appreciated. One reviewer shared a long-term connection with the community, expressing a sense of family with both the staff and other patrons, and appreciated the owner's personal involvement in ensuring the smooth operation of the facility.
However, the community also faces challenges, particularly regarding staffing issues that have affected the timeliness and quality of care, especially during overnight shifts. Multiple reviewers expressed concern over delays in receiving assistance for basic needs, such as using the bathroom, which was particularly problematic for patients with specific medical requirements. The communication and compassion demonstrated by some staff members during these times were noted as areas needing improvement. Despite these concerns, the positive experiences related to the facility's cleanliness, dietary accommodations, and physical therapy services underscore a foundation of quality care that, with attention to the highlighted issues, could enhance the experience for all patrons.
