Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered praise for its cleanliness, the professionalism and welcoming nature of its staff, and the high level of care provided to residents. Reviewers frequently mentioned the compassionate care their family members received, highlighting the attentiveness and kindness of the nurses and aides. The positive atmosphere, where staff are described as caring, loving, and dedicated, is often noted. Several reviews also stressed the quick and efficient administrative processes, the community's responsiveness to the needs of residents and their families, and the overall sense of security and satisfaction felt by those who have chosen this place for their loved ones.
However, not all feedback was positive. There were isolated mentions of issues such as disrespect from certain staff members, underappreciation of CNAs, and some concerns over pay. Additionally, one reviewer specifically mentioned problems such as neglect, cockroaches, unpleasant smells, and an incident involving an open air conditioner. Despite these criticisms, the overwhelming majority of comments reflect a supportive and caring environment, emphasizing the community’s commitment to providing exemplary care and service. These positive experiences suggest that, for many, this community succeeds in creating a welcoming and nurturing space for residents and their families.
