Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community receives positive remarks for its welcoming and clean environment, standout staff, and the quality care provided to residents. Reviewers have praised the facility for its cleanliness, with one noting the immaculate condition of the building. The staff is described as caring, sweet, and treating residents more like family than clients, which contributes to a positive atmosphere. Several reviewers emphasize the high standard of care their loved ones received, highlighting the timely and effective communication from the facility regarding health updates. The effort made by the staff to maintain a clean, engaging, and supportive environment was also appreciated, with the effectiveness of the therapy and rehabilitation services particularly noted. The food generally received positive feedback, with one reviewer stating that it was actually good, which is often an area of concern in healthcare facilities.
However, there are critical comments concerning specific aspects of care and management. A notable concern is the handling of a resident's severe leg fracture and subsequent development of bed sores due to a lack of prompt physical therapy, primarily attributed to COVID-19 related challenges. Additionally, some administrative staff members were described as unpleasant and uncommunicative, exacerbating concerns for the financial and insurance inquiries of a resident's family. Negative experiences also extended to perceived neglect in the memory care unit, including a lack of proper hygiene and care leading to health issues, such as unexplained injuries and significant weight loss, indicating management's failure to address these critical complaints effectively. Despite the overall positive feedback, these concerns highlight areas where this community needs to improve to ensure consistent, high-quality care and communication for all residents and their families.
