Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community is praised for its exceptional care and compassion towards its residents, with staff across various roles being commended for their outstanding service, particularly noted during the challenging times of Covid-19. Family members and residents have expressed gratitude towards the healthcare aides, nurses, social workers, admissions, coordinators, and managers for their exemplary support. It's highlighted that the dedication of staff, including the CEO, contributes significantly to making residents' stay comfortable and pleasant. The facility itself receives compliments for its cleanliness and attractive campus, although one reviewer wishes they could have enjoyed it more.
However, there are criticisms concerning the quality and temperature of the food, with one person reporting that meals frequently arrive not as ordered and at room temperature. Furthermore, the community's policy on showers, which limits residents to two scheduled showers per week without privacy, has been described as humiliating and uncomfortable by a self-sufficient resident. This specific critique points to a broader discontent among those who do not require extensive personal care, suggesting an area where the community might improve its services to better accommodate all residents' independence and privacy needs.
