Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community receives a mixed set of reviews from patrons, leaning towards positive experiences related to the staff's demeanor and the physical condition of the facility. Many testimonials praise the caring and professional nature of the therapists, nurses, and other staff members. Specific employees were highlighted for going above and beyond in their duties, contributing significantly to the patients' well-being and satisfaction. The food and cleanliness of the facility also received commendations, adding to the comfort of the residents' stay.
However, there are concerns regarding the level of care, particularly in medication management and attention to residents' needs, with one reviewer noting a serious incident due to missed medication doses that nearly resulted in a fatal outcome. The responsiveness and competency of some front desk and nursing staff were questioned, alongside issues with visitor management and the consistency of care provided. Complaints about specific instances of neglect, lack of timely assistance, and unsatisfactory conditions such as room cleanliness and laundry handling were voiced, though these were not as frequently mentioned as the positive aspects. Despite these criticisms, the positive experiences related to staff helpfulness, facility cleanliness, and a generally welcoming environment appear to be the more dominant themes in these reviews.
