Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a multitude of positive feedback from residents, their families, and even staff, praising the exceptional care, engaging activities, and the overall friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Many commend the community for its dedicated and caring staff, who are noted for going above and beyond in providing support and making residents feel at home. The therapy department, in particular, has been highlighted for its excellence, contributing significantly to the positive rehabilitation experiences of several residents. The array of activities, spearheaded by an enthusiastic activity director, ensures residents have enjoyable days filled with smiles. The cleanliness of the environment and the quality of the food also received positive mentions, along with the care provided on the specialized dementia unit which has been beneficial for residents in need of tailored support.
However, there was a significant concern raised in one review regarding unprofessional behavior, lack of teamwork among coworkers, and serious allegations of abuse and inappropriate responses to it, including retaliation against those who reported such incidents. This negative feedback, though isolated, points to potential areas within the community that may require attention and improvement to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents and staff. Despite this, the sentiment across most reviews remains overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing gratitude for the community's impact on their lives or the lives of their loved ones, and several staff members feeling a strong sense of belonging and fulfillment in their roles.
