Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a range of feedback from families and individuals who've had experiences with their services. Several reviewers praised the excellent care, particularly noting the occupational and physical therapy (OT & PT) offered, which significantly contributed to the recovery and rehabilitation of their loved ones. Many appreciated the staff's kindness, professionalism, and compassionate approach towards patients, highlighting how these qualities positively impacted the overall experience and treatment outcomes. Specific mentions of the facility's environment being welcoming, clean, and conducive to healing added to the sense of satisfaction expressed by some reviewers.
However, there were some critiques, primarily concerning the quality of food described as inedible by more than one reviewer, which detracted from their overall positive view of the care provided. Additionally, concerns about care levels, mentioning instances where a resident was left unattended for prolonged periods, and issues with communication and the efficacy of the social work department were brought up, suggesting areas for improvement. Despite these criticisms, the community was lauded for its state-of-the-art facility, which feels more like a high-end hotel than a traditional nursing home, and for its staff's long-term commitment, indicating a stable and caring environment.
