Residents and their families say:

This community has received a number of positive reviews focusing on the high level of care provided. Residents and their families have praised the staff for their excellent physical and occupational therapy, as well as general skilled nursing care, describing the team as compassionate and kind. The facility has been commended for its cleanliness and neatness, and there's an appreciation for the homelike atmosphere it offers. Recent administrative changes have been cited as bringing many improvements to the community. The dedication of the staff, including those in leadership positions, has been highlighted as a key factor contributing to the positive experiences of both the residents and their families, with staff reportedly going beyond their duties to ensure comfort and care.
However, there is a contrasting view from a former staff member who felt differently about their experience, suggesting challenges in the workplace. This discrepancy underscores the complex nature of healthcare environments where perceptions can vary greatly between individuals. Despite this, the positive feedback from residents' families largely overshadows the single negative account, painting this community as a nurturing and attentive place for rehabilitation and care.
