Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received mixed feedback from its residents and their families. Positive remarks highlight the dedication and compassion of specific staff members, which, for some, significantly improved their experience. The therapy department, in particular, was praised for helping residents recover and improve their physical condition. Many reviewers expressed gratitude towards the staff for their kindness, support, and exceptional care, noting that these efforts made their stay or their loved one's stay more pleasant. Efforts by staff to maintain regular communication with families, particularly through activities such as FaceTime, were also appreciated, adding a personal touch to the care provided.
However, there are concerns regarding the consistency of care and service, including issues with the administration of therapy sessions and medication, as well as the timeliness and quality of food. Several reviewers mentioned a lack of staff, which seemed to contribute to delayed or missed services and care, including necessary therapy sessions. Complaints about the incorrect administration of medication and the overall responsiveness of the facility to residents' needs were noted, suggesting areas for improvement. Despite these issues, the commendations for certain staff members and aspects of care suggest that while the facility faces challenges, there are also positive elements that enhance the experience for some residents and their families.
