Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a multitude of positive reviews, highlighting its cleanliness, the professionalism, and warmth of the staff, and the overall care provided to residents. Reviewers have noted the attentiveness and genuine care of the nursing staff towards the elderly, making it stand out from other facilities. The environment is described as clean and secure, which seems to bring comfort to both residents and visitors. Many have expressed satisfaction with the way their family members are treated, emphasizing the staff's efforts in treating residents with dignity and respect. Good food quality was also mentioned, adding to the positive living environment for the residents.
However, there were some concerns expressed about the facility's capability to handle advanced COPD patients, noting that the respiratory therapist is only available five days a week. Additionally, one reviewer described an experience with a staff member in charge of admissions and discharges as considerably negative. These instances of dissatisfaction, particularly the mention of a staff member's unprofessional behavior, suggest areas for improvement. Despite these aspects, the community is predominantly praised for its cleanliness, the quality of care, and the friendly, professional manner in which family members and residents are treated.
