Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received numerous accolades for its high level of care, compassionate staff, and supportive environment. Many reviewers highlighted the exceptional attention and kindness offered by the staff, contributing significantly to patients' recovery and comfort. From personalized nursing care that successfully managed complex health issues like diabetes to the effective rehabilitation services that enabled patients to regain their independence, the testimonials reflect a strong commitment to wellness and individual needs. The activities department, including engaging games like bingo, and the effort to maintain a clean and friendly atmosphere have also been praised. The commendable handling of COVID-19 by providing adequate PPE and minimizing cases within the community underscores a strong organizational response to the pandemic.
However, not all feedback was without critique. A shared concern among some reviewers was the need for better coordination and communication among staff, hinting at an area that could enhance the resident experience further. Additionally, the absence of in-room amenities such as phones, refrigerators, and microwaves was noted as a point of improvement that could make the residents' stay more comfortable. While these negative observations were mentioned, they do not overshadow the positive experiences and gratitude expressed by most reviewers for the care and support received during their stay.
