Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received several positive comments from reviewers highlighting the dedication and hard work of its staff. Many relatives of the residents have expressed their satisfaction with the level of care provided, particularly noting the attentiveness and friendliness of the staff, along with the clean and welcoming environment of the facility. The medical and rehabilitation services offered, such as helping residents regain their mobility and independence after incidents like strokes or falls, have been praised. The communication from staff, especially during the admission process and in addressing any concerns, has been regarded as exceptional. Reviewers have also appreciated the facility's aesthetically pleasing aspects, including well-maintained grounds, comfortable dining and sitting areas, and the general cleanliness of the premises. Activities for residents and the quality of food served have received positive feedback as well.
However, there have been critical points raised by a few reviewers regarding the facility's management and responsiveness in specific departments, most notably in physical therapy and in situations requiring timely medical attention. One review detailed a particularly negative experience concerning the lack of promptness from nursing staff and doctors in responding to a resident's needs, leading to tragic consequences. Such criticisms appear alongside remarks about the facility's failure to follow schedules and a perceived overall dysfunction in certain areas of operation. Despite these issues raised by a minority, many families have been reassured by the generally high standards of care and facility management experienced during their relatives' stays.
In conclusion, while the majority of feedback has been positive, focusing on the care quality, staff dedication, and the facility's condition, there are notable concerns regarding certain aspects of management and responsiveness that potential residents and their families might want to consider. These issues, however, do not eclipse the numerous accounts of satisfaction with the care and services provided by this community.
