Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community receives a mix of reviews highlighting its strengths in creating a welcoming and family-like atmosphere, alongside some areas for improvement. Many reviewers express satisfaction with the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, noting their compassion and dedication toward residents. The facilities are consistently described as clean and well-maintained, with housekeeping doing a commendable job in ensuring rooms are spotless and smell fresh. Admissions personnel and some staff members are specifically praised for their efficiency and for providing a smooth process for families and residents. The communal atmosphere is frequently cited as a strong point, with many feeling that the care provided is personalized and genuine, contributing positively to the experiences of both longstanding and new residents.
However, the community does not escape criticism, with a notable concern being the staffing levels. There is mention of the community being often short-staffed, which, although not entirely blamed on the management, seems to affect the overall experience negatively for some. Another serious complaint involves a mishap with medication administration, a point of concern that highlights the need for improvement in staff training or communication. While these negative points are concerning, it's clear that they are not reflective of everyone's experience, as many reviews share positive outcomes and satisfaction with the services and environment provided.
In summary, while this community is appreciated for its welcoming environment, cleanliness, and the care and compassion shown by its staff, it is evident that there are areas needing attention, especially regarding staffing levels and certain operational procedures. These mixed reviews suggest that while many find it a favorable place for their loved ones, it is crucial for prospective residents and their families to consider all aspects of care and management practices.
