Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered appreciation for its kind and helpful staff, who have been praised for their care and dedication, especially during challenging times. Family members of the residents have emphasized the positive impact the community has had on their loved ones, noting successful rehabilitation processes and the caring nature of the staff. Special events organized by the community, such as parades, have also been highlighted as beautiful gestures that uplift spirits. The quality of nursing care received has been described as the best some have ever experienced, contributing significantly to speedy recoveries.
However, there have been mentions of maintenance issues, including malfunctioning toilets and constantly running AC units, which detract from the overall experience. Reports of the food being average, resembling typical hospital fare, and occasional lapses in service, such as not delivering dietary supplements with meals, were brought up. Some reviewers also noted inconsistencies in staff behavior, with a mix of extremely friendly personnel and others seen arguing, affecting the otherwise positive environment. Despite these criticisms, the feedback about this community leans heavily towards the positive, with the caring and efficient staff often commended for their work and the heartfelt care they provide to residents and their families.
