Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received praise for its remarkable staff and the level of care they provide, with multiple reviews highlighting the staff's professionalism, patience, and compassion. Many reviewers have appreciated the staff's dedication to ensuring both the residents and their families are well-informed and supported throughout their stay. Positive changes in recent years, including a change of ownership and a significant increase in new staffing, have been noted, alongside improvements that have made a lasting positive impact on the quality of care provided. The community's commitment to treating residents with dignity and respect has been a recurring theme, with particular commendations for the way staff coordinate care and maintain open lines of communication with families.
However, a few concerns were mentioned, including one reviewer's unpleasant experience regarding the facility's accessibility and another's comment on the building's outdated condition. Despite these criticisms, the community appears to shine through its culinary offerings and spacious accommodations, especially appreciated by those in short-term rehab. The sentiments expressed suggest that, for many, the warmth and effectiveness of the staff significantly outweigh any physical or logistical imperfections the facility may have.
