Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive attention from many reviewers for its dedicated and caring staff, cleanliness, and array of activities that keep residents engaged both physically and mentally. Residents and their families frequently praise the professionalism, helpfulness, and respectful nature of the staff, mentioning specific departments like nursing, therapy, and social services for their contribution to making stays comfortable and productive. The commitment of the staff across various roles, including CNAs, RNs, therapists, and activity coordinators, is highlighted as a key factor in creating a supportive and caring environment. The physical environment, including cleanliness and the absence of odors, alongside the presence of a friendly on-site dog, contributes to a welcoming atmosphere that many find reassuring.
However, this community is not without its criticisms, with understaffing and slow response times being a recurring concern among some reviewers. These issues appear to manifest in delayed assistance and, in some cases, in the quality of care, such as long wait times for responding to call bells and challenges with medication management. Despite these concerns, the administration's responsiveness to addressing issues and making attempts at resolutions is acknowledged positively. Another point of critique relates to the quality of food, with some finding it unsatisfactory.
It's also noteworthy that the community has undergone recent administrative changes, which shows an effort toward improvement and responsiveness to feedback. While the quality of care and the environment are highly commended, areas like staffing, response time, and food quality are areas identified for potential improvement. The community's efforts to maintain a high standard of care are apparent, and many reviewers express gratitude for the support and care their loved ones receive, making it a recommended choice for those in need of nursing or rehabilitative services.
