Residents and their families say:

This community has received a mixed bag of reviews, with some praising aspects like the therapy department and nursing staff, and others highlighting areas in need of improvement. Many reviewers commend the physical, occupational, and speech therapy departments, describing them as outstanding, available around the clock, and excellent at communicating with patients and their families.

Some reviewers also expressed dissatisfaction with communication from the staff, describing it as terrible or lacking, particularly concerning care plans and patient updates. Responses to these issues appeared mixed, with some experiencing quick and pleasant interactions with staff, while others found it challenging to get in touch with or receive adequate information from caregivers.
