Residents and their families say:

The reviews about this community provide a mixed perspective, highlighting a range of experiences from residents and their family members. On the positive side, many reviewers express their satisfaction with the quality of care and dedication of the staff. One reviewer shares a heartfelt appreciation for the care their sister received, praising the staff for being caring, concerned, and going above and beyond to help her achieve her best possible health. Specific staff members are mentioned for their exceptional contributions, including challenging residents to reach their highest potential and acting as mentors and friends. Another review describes the community as a "first-class outfit," commending the personalized attention from the doctor upon admittance and the overall positive environment created by the professional and caring staff. The facilities, including the rooms and meals, are also noted as truly great.
However, some negative experiences are also mentioned, though they are not as widely corroborated across multiple reviews. Concerns raised include issues with room sharing, such as having to share a room with three other people, leading to conflicts over TV watching habits and lights-out times. Additionally, one reviewer expresses frustration over what they perceive as excessive costs, indicating a monthly expense that may not be affordable for everyone.

In summation, while there are isolated complaints regarding room sharing, TV usage, lights-out policies, and the financial burden associated with care, the predominant feedback about this community is overwhelmingly positive. The staff's professionalism, care, and dedication to residents' well-being are repeatedly emphasized, alongside satisfaction with the facilities and treatment plans. These positive aspects seem to define the experience for most residents and their families, painting a picture of a community committed to delivering quality care and support.
