Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community, noted by its residents and their families for providing excellent and compassionate care, stands out for its professionalism, the respectful and dignified treatment of its residents, and its welcoming atmosphere. Many reviews highlight the staff's commitment to health care, attentive patient care, and their ability to make residents feel respected and valued. The community has received praise for both its skilled nursing and hospice programs, ensuring that residents receive the comprehensive care they require. Furthermore, the positive feedback extends to the facility's cleanliness, the quality of rehabilitation services, and the engaging activities offered to residents. The sense of family and community within the staff and between residents and caregivers is frequently mentioned, showing a strong bond that enhances the living experience for many residents.
However, some negative feedback was mentioned across multiple reviews, particularly regarding administrative issues and the loss of personal items which seems to be a repeated concern. Another point of dissatisfaction included the need for facility upgrades and improvements in the quality of food, though it's noted that new menus are being introduced. These concerns, while significant, do not overshadow the numerous positive recounts of resident experiences and family satisfaction. Reviews consistently underline the caring nature of the staff, the facility’s active role in the larger community, and its ability to provide a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for its residents.
The community also stands as a pillar in the broader community, engaging in outreach and support that extends beyond its immediate residents. The staff's dedication during challenging times, especially noted during the COVID-19 pandemic, showcases their commitment not only to the health and safety of their residents but also to their emotional and social wellbeing. The appreciation from families for the attentiveness to their loved ones, particularly those in need of specialized care such as dementia or hospice services, speaks volumes about the community's ethos and the impactful role it plays in the lives of many. Despite the call for certain improvements, the essence of the reviews paints a picture of a community deeply committed to the care and satisfaction of its residents, making it a recommended choice for many families seeking compassionate and professional care for their loved ones.
