Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a variety of feedback from residents and their families, highlighting its strengths and areas for improvement. Many praised the community for its cleanliness, spacious and private rooms, attentive and caring staff, and the quality of rehabilitation care provided. The availability of various activities, excellent food, and the benefits for staff were also noted positively, contributing to a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere for both short-term rehab patients and long-term residents. Some reviews specifically appreciated the recovery progress made by their loved ones due to the dedicated efforts of therapists and nurses. The community's outdoor patio area and the overall professionalism and friendliness of the environment were highlighted as key factors that made stays pleasant for residents.
However, not all feedback was positive. A few negative points were raised, including concerns about oral health and physical therapy attention for long-term residents, indicating a need for more consistent care in these areas. Additionally, challenges with dietary restrictions, such as vegetarian options and adherence to specific diet needs like low-salt, were mentioned, suggesting room for improvement in catering services. Language barriers and occasional lapses in duty among certified nursing assistants (CNAs) were also pointed out, hinting at the need for regular training or reinforcement of language policies. Despite these criticisms, positive changes have been observed over time, suggesting ongoing efforts to address past issues and improve the community's services.
In sum, while the community offers a supportive and effective environment for rehabilitation and care, evidenced by many satisfactory experiences and the notable recovery progress of residents, it also faces challenges that require attention. These include ensuring consistent care across all aspects of health and well-being and accommodating all dietary needs. Encouragingly, the community seems committed to improvement and responsive to feedback, as illustrated by the positive changes noted by repeat visitors and acknowledgments of staff efforts to address concerns.
