Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received considerable praise for its staff's dedication and the quality of care provided, particularly to veterans. Many reviewers highlighted the exceptional cleanliness, the spacious and well-maintained facilities, and the broad range of activities available to residents, ensuring that nobody feels bored. People visiting their loved ones noted the welcoming and helpful nature of the staff, the ease of access to the facilities, and the overall positive atmosphere. There was particular appreciation for the community serving as a comforting and respectful home for veterans, with one review expressing gratitude for turning their relative's life around and emphasizing the collective effort of the staff to offer the best care.
However, the community also faced criticism, with repeated concerns about its management priorities, suggesting a focus more on financial gains rather than the welfare of the residents. Some reviewers shared experiences of friends and co-workers who found the working environment challenging, citing inefficiency and ineffectiveness among the supervising staff. While these criticisms were noted, the kindness of the residents themselves was acknowledged. These negative points, mentioned in several reviews, highlight areas where the community could focus on improvements to match the high praise related to its care and facilities.
