Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received mixed reviews from visitors and those with loved ones residing there. Positive remarks highlight the staff's professionalism, patience, and attentiveness, with several reviewers noting that their family members are well-cared for. The staff's ability to manage a variety of behaviors professionally and the cleanliness and neatness of residents were particularly praised. Moreover, the environment was described as courteous, highly professional, and recommended by a visitor, indicating a satisfactory experience for some who have interacted with this community.
However, not all feedback was favorable. There was a concerning mention of an unpleasant odor, suggesting a need for more funding to maintain the building and care for residents properly. Another review criticized the lack of teamwork and professionalism within the staff. Despite these criticisms, there was a mention of a positive surprise regarding the facility's ability to provide outstanding care on its Medicare floor for rehabilitation, contradicting its prior reputation. This inconsistency in feedback suggests that experiences can vary, but the commendations for the staff’s care and the professional handling of residents stand out. The community seems to have areas of strength, particularly in staff behavior and resident care, though improvements in teamwork and facility maintenance are noted as needed.
