Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive feedback for its warm, caring, and attentive staff, alongside a clean and welcoming environment. Residents and their families generally report high satisfaction with the quality of care received, highlighting the community's dedication to cleanliness, resident engagement, and professional healthcare services. The living spaces, including residents' rooms, are consistently described as clean and tidy, with the added benefit of engaging activities and commendable rehabilitation services. The staff has been praised for their friendliness, courteousness, and the compassionate care they provide, often going above and beyond expectations. Special mention goes to the skilled nursing facility's efforts during COVID-19 restrictions to keep residents safe while striving to maintain a semblance of normalcy in challenging times.
However, there is a noted discrepancy in the reported quality of care between daytime and outsourced staff, with a single reviewer expressing dissatisfaction with the care provided by the institution's employed CNAs and attending nurses, without recommending their services. In contrast, many reviews laud the exceptional care received during rehabilitation for various needs, from short-term recovery to longer stays for complex medical conditions. The quality of the food and the range of activities available were highlighted as exceptional, contributing positively to the overall experience of residents and their families. Despite minor criticisms related to aesthetics and renovation needs, the compassionate care, professional therapy services, and the clean, refreshed environment have been a recurring theme of appreciation among reviewers.
