Residents and their families say:

This community has received an array of positive feedback from residents and their families who appreciate the caring atmosphere, clean surroundings, and responsive staff. Many appreciate the attentive and helpful nature of the workers, which contributes to a pleasant and comfortable environment for both short and long-term stays. The staff is frequently described as friendly, accommodating, and dedicated to providing quality care, with particular praise for the nursing and management teams for their role in educating families and ensuring residents are well looked after. Facilities, from the dining services to the therapy departments, are generally seen as exceptional, contributing to the positive experiences of the residents and their families. Celebrations and personal touches, like holiday meals and special attention to individual preferences, are noted and cherished by visitors. The efforts to maintain strict COVID-19 protocols and keep the facility clean and bright have also been applauded.
However, the community faces challenges, notably staffing issues, that have been highlighted in a few reviews. Concerns were raised about the facilities being understaffed at times, particularly during weekends, which may affect the level of care some residents receive. Specifically, there were instances of residents waiting for extended periods for assistance with personal care or dealing with the aftermath of meals unattended, which has caused distress among both residents and their families. Such experiences underscore the need for a greater number of caregivers or more efficient support systems in place to handle the demands of resident care effectively. Nonetheless, these issues seem to be counterbalanced by the overall sense of community and the evident commitment of many staff members to provide a caring and supportive environment for all residents.
