Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has been praised for its caring and professional nursing staff, who not only provide excellent daily care but also treat residents like family, creating an atmosphere filled with teasing, laughter, and personal chit-chats. Many reviewers have commended the memory care unit, labeling it as outstanding, with staff members known for their loving assistance during meals and a deep understanding of residents’ preferences. Additionally, the facility has been described as clean, easily accessible, and fostering an environment where residents are kept active, engaged, and well-cared for, highlighting practices such as getting residents up and interacting with them throughout the day. The community's approach to care has been particularly noted for preventing skin breakdowns in non-ambulatory residents and for providing specialized equipment like the Broda chair to enhance comfort and mobility.
However, there have been criticisms concerning communication issues, occasional staffing shortages, especially noted during holidays, and some reviewers have found access to the facility on weekends to be challenging. The impact of staff shortages on the level of care and the facility's atmosphere during such times was a concern for some, despite acknowledgment of the hard work and dedication of available staff members. Additionally, one review mentioned dissatisfaction with the facility's handling of political opinions regarding COVID restrictions, suggesting a preference for medical decisions to be more closely aligned with personal physicians’ advice. Despite these points of criticism, the repeated mentions of a welcoming, supportive environment, and high-quality care underline the positive impact this community has had on residents and their families.
